After a promising Spanish Grand Prix last weekend, hopes were high for the world champions, Mercedes, heading into Monaco. But they have struggled against a bouncy and bumpy Monaco track surface to get a hold of their car. Lewis Hamilton specifically has complained about the bouncing he is experiencing in the W13 on the streets of Monaco. After the FP2 session, he stated that this was the bumpiest track he has ever driven on. But his former teammate and rival Nico Rosberg [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/nico-rosberg/] believes that the 7-time world champion has lost his way this weekend. Rosberg stated Russell [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/george-russell/] has got a better grip on the car in Monaco as compared to Hamilton. NICO ROSBERG IS SKEPTICAL OF LEWIS HAMILTON IN MONACO GP THIS WEEKEND While being a pundit on Sky Sports this weekend, the former world champion mentioned that his ex-rival will struggle to find his way back and will be more competitive in the upcoming sessions in the principality. With limited running in FP3, it would be a challenge for the 7-time world champion to make significant gains in performance. “This weekend, Lewis has been having a hard time out there. We know the Mercedes is difficult to drive here, but George has stuck with it and found that flow. He is making incredible progress and is in that fight with Lando for the best of the rest after Ferrari and Red Bull,” said [https://www.skysports.com/f1] Nico.

It is a big setback for him,” said the 2016 world champion. READ MORE: Why Do Mercedes Dominate F1? [https://www.essentiallysports.com/f1-news-why-do-mercedes-dominate-f1/] The former world champion is correct in his analysis of Mercedes [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/f1/mercedes] and Hamilton’s performance after the free practice sessions. It looks like the German team is in competition with McLaren [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/f1/mclaren/] to secure the best of the rest spot behind Red Bull [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/f1/red-bull/] and Ferrari [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/f1/ferrari/].

<h3><strong>George Russell: 2021 Net Worth, Salary and Endorsements</strong></h3>
George Russell is a British racing driver. He has been an incredible asset to the historic Williams F1 team alongside his teammate, Nicolas Latifi. The Briton is also a Mercedes junior driver, which has now led him to secure a seat for the 2022 F1 season alongside 7-time world champion, Lewis Hamilton.

He also got a chance to drive the Mercedes F1 car during the 2020 Sakhir Grand Prix when Lewis Hamilton missed the race due to Covid-19. Russell almost pulled off a stunning race victory only for the team to mess up the strategy and deny him of it.

Like all other drivers, Russell began his racing career in karting. He first began competing in 2006 and has not looked back since then.

Russell took his first championship, the 2014 BRDC Formula 4 Championship. He fended off challenges from the likes of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arjun_Maini">Arjun Maini</a> and Raoul Hyman.

A year later, he placed sixth at the 2015 FIA Formula 3 European Championship. But in 2016, he improved his position to 3rd in the championship.

He moved to the GP3 series in 2017 and became a <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/f1/mercedes">Mercedes</a> and Force India test driver. In the same year, he won the GP3 title from compatriot Jack Aitken.

During the following year, Russell joined the FIA Formula 2 Championship and won it in his very first season. He fended off the likes of fellow F1 newcomers <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/lando-norris/">Lando Norris</a> and <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/alexander-albon/">Alexander Albon</a>.

Following his Formula 2 championship win, Russell signed for Williams in 2019, making his d?but at the 2019 Australian Grand Prix, alongside Robert Kubica.

Russell is contracted to drive for Williams until the conclusion of the 2021 season. After a tough couple of seasons, Russell finally broke the point-less streak at the 2021 Hungarian GP, where he secured his first points for the team. Soon, over the very next race weekend at Spa, he also managed to claim his first podium, followed by another top 10 finish at Sochi. As of the Russian GP, Russell has managed to secure a total of 19 points in his career.
