George Russell has enjoyed an incredible start to the 2025 F1 season, with one statꦕ highli✃ghting his impressive performances.

Russell is the only driver on the grid to have finished every competitive session in 2025 iജnside 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 eꦐnd now, it’s hard to argue against Verstappen o🦄r Russell being the driver of the year.

Despite his starring performances, Russell is out of contract at the end of tಞhe season.

Me🐷rcedes boss Toto Wolff has insisted that he’s ha♕ppy with his current driver line-up.

But will Russell be handed a new deal?

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

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

“I’m super happy with the line-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 car to the maxi🌠mum and is doiꩵng great. George is on Max’s level.”

Verstappen’s future remains a major discus🍬sion point, with𝔍 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 on.

Ver🧔stappen has been F1’s outstanding performer൲ since 2021.

He’s proven tha🌟t he doesn’t need the 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 p🔜erformances alone, Russell is more than wort🅺hy of a new deal.
