168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:George Russell is confident he can convert a shock pole position into victory following a dramatic qualifying at the F1 Canadian Grand Prix.

Russell pipped Red Bull’s 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen to claim Mercedes’ first pole of the 2024 season in a thrilling qualifying at the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve, despite the pair setting identical lap times 𝔍of ♔a 1m12.000s.

The Briton bagged his second career pole due to completing his lap before Verstappen and Russell believes he can beat the reꦰigning world champion to the win on Sunday.

“I wasn’t sure I had captured pole because that last lap, we just di🅘dn’t improve for some reason,” Russell said.

“I did my quickest lap on the old tyre. Here the new tyre is worth about three or four tenths. I still did my quickest lap in Q2, whiꦕch is not how it should be. But the car has been so good th🐻is weekend.

“The team have done an 𒆙𝓡amazing job bringing all these upgrades to the car and finally, this hard work is translating into results.”

Ask♐ed if he thinks victory could be on the cards on Sunday, Russel👍l replied: “Yeah absolutely, I see no reason why not.

“Ferrari were not in the mix todayꦡ but it’s been getting increasingly close between all the teams and it’s really great to see.

“Let’s see how it pans out tomorrow and let’s see ho𝔉w it pans out in the coming ꧅races.

“I see no reason why we can’t fight for victory. We’ve had the fastest car this weekend and I’m fee♐ling really good behind the wheel.”

Russell added: “But th🎶ere’s a lot of unknowns. We’ve got this new tarmac, we had no real practice to understand how the tyres are dಞegrading.

“I think we saw in practice three this morning, as soon as they go, they really go. We’re going to have to plaꦇy t🔜he long game.

“But𒈔 I’ll have a good night’s sleep to🅺night and go for it tomorrow!”
