Mercedes Formula 1 driver George Russell said the unexpected five-week break between the Japanese and Miami Grands Prix has been a "good reset" and he feels confident ahead of the Miami race.

In an interview with IWC Schaffhausen at Watches and Wonders 2026 in Geneva for the launch of the Pilot’s Venturer Vertical Drive timepiece, George Russell said he enjoys the fast, flowing Miami circuit with a tight final section and expects overtaking opportunities and variable weather to be factors.
