A snippet from Erik van Haren's reporting puts real pressure on George Russell's seat. "Wolff has never made a secret of his appreciation for Verstappen and, in turn, will wait and see in the coming period whether Russell can keep up with Antonelli," the report reads. "If he fails to do so, Mercedes can get rid of him due to clauses in his contract signed last year." Treat this as a report, not a confirmed decision. But it reframes the Mercedes seat as something Russell has to keep earning. Relayed via @verstappenews. πΈπ° via De Telegraaf #F1 #Mercedes #Russell #Verstappen
