Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen have not had an ideal start to their Mexico GP preparations

George Russell's new target with Kimi Antonelli on the verge of F1 glory

George Russell has stated he wants a consistent end to this F1 campaign, with any hope of victory all but over. With Mercedes team-mate Kimi Antonelli on the verge of winning, Russell has recalibrated his targets for this season.

He said: “It's definitely important for me to try and gain some consistency. A couple of races ago, we were on pole by eight tenths and won the race. Then, last week, I finished in P8.

“I've never had a season like this in my career where the performance has fluctuated so much. I know it's in there because you can't deliver performances like that in Baku if you've so-called lost it.

“It's just that we're struggling to have a high hit rate. We don't know why that is, and as I said, we've never had it.

"I've never had it personally before in my career. I guess that's probably the priority for me in these last few races.”
