“Because we were all [in den Nachwuchsserien] against each other, we knew what level we have to come to the We've pushed usaall each other, “explains Russell. The junior classes were a good school for the talented pilots. But he stresses that this alone is not enough to make it into Formula One.
“There are others who also have the same preparation but who do not deliver the same thing”, He says and reveals with regard to the Formula 1 youngsters: “I think we all have a similar attitude, we are all incredibly motivated and have a passion for the sport.” He explains, “If you want to go to Formula One, then you need it and you have to sacrifice a lot.”
“We all did that,” says Russell. “But many people think it's pretty easy to get to that level, I'm curious who will make it to Formula One in a few years and who will not, and I know a lot of drivers in the junior series and I know who invested a lot – and who is not, “said the Formula 2 champion of 620.
