Mercedes Formula 1 driver George Russell visited South Garda Karting with Mercedes boss Toto Wolff and F1 Academy managing director Susie Wolff to watch Jack Wolff and support emerging drivers.
Russell posted throwback photos on Instagram and Susie Wolff also shared images from the day. Russell spent the five-week F1 break supporting young talent and recently attended Silverstone to support Mercedes development driver Doriane Pin during her maiden F1 test; the 22-year-old was the first woman to drive a Mercedes F1 car, following Jessica Hawkins' Aston Martin F1 test in 2023.
Russell heads into the Miami Grand Prix second in the drivers' standings, nine points behind team‑mate Kimi Antonelli. Speaking at an IWC Schaffhausen event, Russell said the break had been a good reset and that he was feeling confident for Miami.
