George Russell reassesses pace deficit to Kimi Antonelli at Belgian GP

George Russell, competing at the Belgian Grand Prix, has changed his perspective on his pace deficit to teammate Kimi Antonelli. Initially attributing his struggles to his driving style, Russell now believes other factors contribute to the gap, as he qualified more than half a second behind Antonelli, who secured pole position. Russell noted that he has been perplexed by his ongoing performance issues, pointing to cumulative problems identified since Austria. He qualified fourth, but will start third due to Lando Norris’ grid penalty. Russell aims for a strong result amidst ongoing efforts from his team to diagnose the pace issue.
