George Russell has enjoyed an incredible start to the 2025 F1 season, with one stat ܫhꩲighlighting his impressive performances.

Russelꦚl is the only driver on the grid to have finished every competitive sesꦦsion in 2025 inside the top five.

The British driver’s impressive run of form means he sits fourth in the 2025 F1 drivers’ championship, just six points behind 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen.

If the season was to end now, it’s har𒁏d to argue against Verstappen or Russell being the driver of the year.

Despite his starring performa💜nces, Russell is out of contract at the end of the season.

Me꧃rced💧es boss Toto Wolff has insisted that he’s happy with his current driver line-up.

But will Russell be handed a new deal?

Speaking 🎐🤪to Sky Sports in Saudi Arabia, Wolff insisted that he’s not held talks with Verstappen.

“I always say I don’t f꧑lirt outside if I’m happy in the 🍒relationship on a professional level,” Wolff said of his current driver pairing. 

“I’m super hap🌸py with the 𝓀line-up we have, I couldn’t wish for anything better. Max is at Red Bull, we haven’t had a conversation, we are continuing our trajectory.

“He’s been performing in the c🔜ar to the maximum and is doing great. Geಞorge is on Max’s level.”

Verstappen’s future remains a major discussion point, with Red Bull’s🦩 form inconsistent.

After the Bahrain Grand Prix, Helmut Marko admitted he “feared” losing Verstappen - 168澳洲幸运5官方🍬开奖结果历史:something he’s since backtracked o𒁏n.

Verstappen has been F1’s outstanding performer since 20ꩲ21.

He𝕴’s proven that he doesn’t need tꦏhe fastest car in F1 to win races - or maintain his lead at the top of the drivers’ championship.

It’s unlikely Mercedes would want to upset their current driver line-up, especially as both Russell and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Kimi Antonelli came through their junior academy.

On pꦡerformances alone, Russell is more than worthy of a new deal.
