Russell’s rapid rise in Formula 1 includes a maiden pole position in Hungary and his first Grand Prix victory in Sao Paulo during the previous season.

Russell reflected on his journey with Mercedes, stating, “It’s my home, and it feels fantastic to extend our special relationship through 2025. He expressed his commitment to repaying the trust and belief that the team had placed in him.

Mercedes’ Strongest Pairing

Toto Wolff, Mercedes Team Principal, hailed Hamilton and Russell as the “strongest pairing on the grid. Beyond their driving prowess, Wolff recognized Hamilton’s leadership role within the team.

While Hamilton also competes into his “year 40” season and Russell continues to evolve as a driver, the team aims to achieve even greater heights in the sport.
