Looking ahead to Sunday’s fight for the win, Russell revealed that both Mercedes drivers have an extra set of medium tyres which could give them a crucial advanওtage in the battle for the victory.
“I felt really confident in the car, the team did a great job with the strategy,” Russell said after qualifyiꦛng.
“We are on an off-set strategy coꦕmpared to everybody else, so we have an extra set of medium ty𓆉res tomorrow which nobody around us has.
“With our mediums, we can try to put Ferrari into a⛦ difficult position and try to forc✃e them into an error and get the upper hand. So that's what we are looking for.”

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Carlos Sainz - who will start on ജpole - acknowledged Mercedes' potential advantage.
"We know our weakness is always the race pace and where we pay t🌠he price,” Sainz explained.
"But I think our team has been doing a great job over the last couple of weekend🗹s to understand the package and car. We have definitely made a bit of progress, keeping in mind this circuit always suits Ferrari well.
"Mercedes is normally a bit quicker than us come race day.ꦛ They hav𓃲e a different tyre strategy, which we will have to keep an eye on.
"But if I focus▨ on my own race and put together a good first stint and stint on hards, we c🌌an target the win."
