David Coulthard:
โAll the team of Mercedes is on the podium. George is up there, I felt for George because here's I thought I had experienced. The team had won constructed so every member of Mercedes Formula One team and Mercedes high performance engines considers as a world champion.
But do you think George Russell considers himself a world champion?
I was part of the McLaren when they had won the constructor championship. Every member of that McLaren team consider they were world champion. I never would refer to myself as world champion even though I contributed as much as any other person on the team did.
But as a driver, you win the drivers' championship or you are not a champion. So George is up there celebrating with the team, hurting inside because his teammate and this is something I'm quite used to, his teammate has beaten him and won the wdc.โ
No thoughts. ๐
