On this episode of Actually Me, F1 racer George Russell goes undercover on the Internet and replies to real comments from fans on Twitter, Instagram, Quora, Wikipedia, Reddit, UKposts and TikTok. How is he handling the pressure of joining a big team like Mercedes at such a young age? How much weight can he lift with the strength of his neck alone? Does he get thirsty behind the wheel?

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.

@tajulislam1522 2 роки тому

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?

@abhineetgupta1491 2 роки тому

@@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.

@jessicalong1809 2 роки тому

@@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?

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.

@coast2coast00 2 роки тому

@@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.
