George Russell Reveals Surprising Truth About His Bond With Lewis Hamilton

George Russell has offered fans a rare glimpse into his personal bond with Lewis Hamilton and according to him, it’s only grown stronger even after Hamilton left for Ferrari in 202.

The Mercedes star reflected on his dynamic with the seven-time world champion, putting to rest any rumors of tension between the two. “If anything, it’s actually gotten a little closer,” Russell said. “We sometimes fly together and talk to each other more often off the track too.”

Their connection has always intrigued fans, given the contrast between Hamilton’s decorated legacy and Russell’s rising star. But Russell made it clear: beyond the helmets and headlines, there’s mutual respect and genuine camaraderie.

“We just have a good relationship. Lewis is someone whose company I really enjoy,” he added. “He’s obviously in the spotlight, more than any of us, and sometimes a protective shield goes up. But in a familiar setting, he’s someone I get along with really well.”
