Hamilton's Work Ethic "Refreshing" for Russell
By: Francis Joseph
Williams Formula 1 rookie George Russell says he found it "refreshing" to watch Lewis Hamilton at Mercedes and discover his success is a result of an intense work ethic.
Russell, the 2018 Formula 2 champion, has signed a "multi-year" deal with Williams after spending last year dovetailing his racing commitments with the role of Mercedes reserve driver.
He told Motorsport .com that his position within F1's current all-conquering team gave him a new appreciation for how five-time world champion Hamilton conducts himself.
"There's a number of different perceptions of how Lewis's commitment is over the course of the year," said Russell.
"He's got a number of different activities he does and he's an extremely talented driver but when he comes to the track he will work his arse off to maximise everything – pushing the team in such an amazing direction, really motivating everybody.
