Need more of these with all the drivers. Excited for GR this year! He’s definitely going to be F1 poster boy in a couple of years.
No
53 Kilos with his neck is insane, literally could pick up a small person with his head lol
never skip neck day
Bruh
Yep, and that small person is me except I'm not small, just skinny. 41+kg at around 175cm lol
53kg is not small, my gf is 167cm and is at that weight
or even a medium sized person, i’m 21 and i weigh 58kg 😭😭😂
All his contemporaries, Leclerc, Albon & Norris got into competitive cars early in their career. George had to bide his time despite coming in as a rookie F2 champion. He deserves this opportunity wholeheartedly.
the devil works hard, but george russell's pr team work harder
George is a corporate puppet
I wanted to like your comment but it has 666 likes. I'm not gonna ruin that.
@@mmaighrd someone ruined
No worries George, I ended up winning that title even though you crashed into me multiple times :)
hahahaha awesome
aw this is so cool
I'm so happy that F1 is getting more and more mainstream.
f1 is the most mainstream racing series.
I think it’s good it’s getting more popular but I’ve also noticed a very big increase in the toxicity from fans online the last few years too.
@@Drenwickification Absolutely, I get having a favourite driver but its not fun to watch people devolve and insult drivers just because of incidents on track.
@@Drenwickification I think it's always been quite similar. But since F1 started focusing more on their social media you probably just see it more.
@@Drenwickification Agreed. The more mainstream idiots you get, the more toxic it gets. Football is the king of this. It's a double edged sword. Also, it might feed into the actual paddock over the next 20 years. In 20 years we might see some of the absolute pondlife that inhabit premier league football.
George is a very likeable guy. Talent has been there for all to see. Big move to partner Lewis at Mercedes. Look forward to seeing how he does. Big up to him!
Love this! Can we get Charles Leclerc also in these? would be fun
George gets the Merc seat and his PR is through the roof. Keep this up George.
What does PR mean?
@@kaneworthington ohhhh thanks, man!
Very truth Merc knows what they are doing
I wanna like this comment but I also like how it’s got 63 likes (George’s number), so I don’t wanna ruin that
@@manojalagu i respect it
4:07 “that’s what she said”
George speaks like a distinguished 50 year old gentleman
Britclone of conservative lapdogism.
He’s a talented driver. He’s getting as best results as possible with what limited car Mercedes has this year. Kinda sad that he joined merc just when their dominance ended. I reckon if he was there in previous years we would have seen him on podium a lot, he may get on there this year tho. Definitely a Ferrari vs red bull year, which is also nice as a Ferrari fan
2:54 must have been playing as Bottas
we def need more george content! he is sooooooo talented and the face of the next gen !
George way of explaining things is really good 💯💯💯 kinda reminds me of his PowerPoint presentation though lol 😅
Imagine playing an F1 game and you get crashed into by yourself
It’s not all about size as they say
you have to understand that too
Likes the Ferrari Livery and likes Monza ? interesting.
Who doesn’t?
Do this with Vettel as he doesnt have any social media
now that would be awesome
He could open an old fashioned bag of post
Need more of these!!
i love listening to him
I didn’t know I needed this but I’m glad I discovered I did
That thumbnail though. "It's about this big" lol
George: "It doesn't matter whether you are in a Mercedes, a Williams or a Ferrari"...
Daily Express: "Russell to make a shock signing with Ferrari in 2023?"
Hope George has a strong season he has worked so hard for the results.
Though russel was jn Bahrain ...well its good to see him here in GQ
Do this with Hamilton!
He's only interested in racing and fashion nowadays, no chance of seeing him doing this sort of stuff
@@hakonandreasolaussen1949 that’s exactly why he would be tempted to work with GQ…
i think he already did it with Wired a few years ago
@@hakonandreasolaussen1949 Lewis done a GQ video but about his tatoos 3 years ago. Would love to see him do this social media responses but it's not everyone cup of tea.
That comment about f1 game russel crashing into people 👀
He actually implemented that in real life 😂
I have enjoy listening to replies to fans on the internet from MercedesF1 drivers George Russell and liked him saying it is actually me. I hope he has great Career in F1 for a British driver.
even the way he says his name is memeable
What a Lad - Brilliant all round Go Go Go GQ
I’m surprised I didn’t get a Microsoft PowerPoint advert on this video.
That was a *horrifically* worded Wikipedia article, those poor editors
4:07 I definitely didn't not understand that in the right way
George acting like he wouldn’t get horrendously booed if he won at Monza
I guess win is a win. Also who doesn't love the temple of speed?
No he wouldn't, unless he crashed into a Ferrari driver or something
they’re italian not dutch
@@dida2056 lol
@@dida2056 Your acting like the tifosi hasnt booed and insulted max the last 2 years
4:24 I think that was pointed towards Daniel.
People: arent f1 drivers thirsty while racing?
George: there is a little bag tney put in the car to drink water
Ferrari/alfa: Kimi you will not have the drink.
He is pure
Good luck George!
GQ forgot the CZcams comment section. 🤔🤔🤔
The wiki never made it
I thought ur guys’ logo was alphatauri
Kimi has no drink xD
omg GEORGE?
this is the most british george ive seen till date n also he looks very british
he's English..nobody is British , English Scottish Welsh Irish..
You're correct, he is British. You'll hear the world media refer to him or Lewis as "the Brit." I am one myself and we aren't all rude as some make it out to be.
@@tajulislam1522
He's an Englishman and born in kings Lynn England . British is something passporters say , biological English Welsh Scottish Irish call themselves by their respected country .
@@TheCraigy83 then why are George, Lewis, and Lando referred to as ‘British drivers’ and drive under the Union Jack?
@@hurrah1eqe892 exactly 'referered' to , me just showing where him & parents originate is more factual obviously .
Oh! His eyes!!!!! 😍
Best of luck george.lets make the dream happen!!!
i loved this as much as i love george lol
What’s with the echo?
I actually love this colour on him
3:50
you sure? it's not there
Would've really liked him to respond to the handsome squidward comparison
4:06 THAT IS WHAT SHE SAID
PR63 is back!!!!!!!!
when they talked about george crashig into people in Career mode, I kept on thinking of Alex screaming his name
Well, concidering how good Ferrari is now, it may not be a good idea to win Monza without a red car this year tbh.
F I F T Y T H R E E KILOS! Brother, these guys are FIT
awsm content guys ..f1 is hot stuff if u kn wt to do with it ..
guys, it's actually him
He looks like Tobey Maguire
No he doesn't lol
People asking the questions: tell me you're new to F1 without telling me you're new to F1
Ted coined the term Mr Saturday
This video just goes to show how many bloody social media platforms there are. How do people keep up!
Sergio Perez's neck is the exact same size as his head.
4:05 Aaayoo what ya tryna say ? 🌝🙇🏻♂️
*tyres
[ANGERY BRITISH NOISES]
Mr Saturday comes from Ted Kravitz
53kgs on that neck, his vocal chords can't handle it no more. My dude having voice cracks.
George in the car😋
This, but with Vettel
BLIMEY ! CRICKEY ! NICELY DONE GEORGE NICELY DONE
2:03 Nicholas muscle fan
Same video as in the other channel...... why?
Georgie😊
Thanks for answering my question, but I still stand by my original comment that I think Williams has better toilet paper.
They should've interviewed Bottas
Am I tripping, or are his eyes pointing outwards from the centreline
Flat round here
That's not how you spell tyres George.
Wikipedia edit not approved. Get a better source, I guess? 😄
Mr. Bad Luck
what a talented guy 👏 very humble and definitely the next British World Champion 🏆
Ferrari is not you rival, Haas is
1:36 No mate. They will not be your rivals this season, may be by the end of the season you might catch up to them, but they are definitely class above Mercedes right now!
Speculations of merc sandbagging are floating around and tbh i think they most defo will contest ferrari for the title in both championships, red bull is a good factor too especially if you assume that ferrari isn't sandbagging and redbull then with max giving charles a run for his money would indicate a 3 way constructors fight.
You've know this because?
Why would they [Merc] be sandbagging if the first GP of the year has already took place last week and your comment was 22h ago? I mean, isn't it foolish to throw money like that for the laugh of not showing what your real pace is?
@@tajulislam1522 Im guessing you're not into f1 strats. Mercs objective for the season is to win the season champs right? So why would you deploy all the tricks that are up your sleeve at the start so all the teams can see? You would stay as far forward without using half your tricks so that towards the end you deploy em so teams cant copy them, cuz it takes time to copy this stuff and storm away in the latter 4/5 of the season. Now then again this is a theory, i have no proof, but it makes sense for a team as resource rich as merc and the people that led the hybrid era.
@@abhineetgupta1491 My theory with the potential sandbagging is also because of the new spending cap. Why would you show your rivals where to spend the money to get the best out of their cars when you can watch them waste it having a go, and then you stop sandbagging when you think the changes would be too big for them to afford to even try to put into place if that makes any sense?
LEWIS AND MAX PLEASE
Was I the only one expecting to see a load of salty max fan comments lol
Can't help but think that George Russel looks like my 7th grade geography teacher. She was a massive lesbian.
Sheldon Cooper in an F1 car.
🤣
doesnt deserve the merc seat
why you always crash into people? george !!!!!!!!!!
:)
George is so unlucky, now that he drive a Mercedes the car is trash...
Only the first race and still the 3rd best car. The Honda engines seem to be unreliable and dnfs cost a lot of points. Ferrari are usually bad at developing the car during the season. I believe Mercedes will have one or both championships at the End of the year.
@@Gejokuge no the budget cap doesn't leave mutch space to recover all that gap Ferrari has now, the Engine is far superior, watch Alfa and Haas...
@@upaz84 i don't wanna be a conspiracy theorist, but how exactly do they enforce the budget caps? Can't a big company like Mercedes do some research on the side without it being suspicious? How many billions does mercedes spend on research and development each year? You could easily hide costs from engeneering work on new f1 parts.
@@Gejokuge It is all monitored, they've been auditing the teams' spending for years now, every detail they bring to the car has to have a paper trail, showing who designed it, where they tested it, what results they got, how much computer time was spent on it.
If a team goes $1 over the budget, they get thrown out of the championship. It's not worth the risk. They would loose hundreds of millions probably.
Bug boy george 😋😋😋
MAKE QUALIFYING QUICK E
His voice has had a stinker here .. voooôoice cracks left right and ceeèntre
Has surprisingly small ears for a motor racing driver, and is his hair some kind of fabric?
Looking forward to seeing him driving fast. Finger's crossed he has cleaned his chin in time for the British television showing of the Silverstone race this year, I want to say it was bad show last year but we all know that wasn't the case.
If he scores more points than anyone else this year there's a good chance he'll be world champion, so keep an eye on the points everyone else is getting, that's the key.
Love this sport more than chicken pie.
“If he scores more points than anyone else this year, there’s a good chance he’ll be world champion” thanks captain obvious.
@@dida2056 I'm no captain.. but thank you Mr missed the obvious.
Hahaha 9th is no place for a merc. Ironic
lol 4th
I like russel but He will be the shiny perfekt PR guy like hamilton sadly
Its actually illegal to change your own Wikipedia page.
Why did George give away his email address, some mother will try to hack that. Questions must have been asked by Netflix watchers, very noobie.
