I’m so incredibly proud of our drivers, it’s truly a pleasure and an honor to be TeamLH and Team PR merchant 💜
#I actually really like the PR nickname#bc everyone who uses it unironically; outs themselves as prick#and shows me that they have absolutely no idea about George’s character#just bc your driver is only nice and respectful when there’s a scandal doesn’t mean mine is too 💜#just bc your driver’s a dickhead doesn’t mean George’s personality is an act 💜#some people are just better than others 💜#also I’d take a PR merchant over a fucking scandal hunter any day#and ofc Lewis; I don’t have to explain I think#he’s just Lewis 💜#f1#formula 1#lewis hamilton#george russell#pr63

He’s on his way out, he can either go out at a historic team, where, win or lose, he will be lauded as a hero for his time there, and check off a bucket list item…or he can trundle around in a Mercedes with PR63 clipping his front wing every other week and wait to get pushed out by Merc’s next superstar… //
Historical team Ferrari has been a running joke for years it’s fan still clinching on Schumacher era bc they have not had anything in years (outside of Kimi win) and I don’t see Seb being lauded a hero by Ferrari. I think it’s a stupid move and it will bring more tension in Ferrari which is not good in a unstable team like them. Charles and Lewis won’t work as teammate bc Lewis is not a good teammate to have lol. I just fell bad for Carlos but well that is f1 for you. That is my opinion of course you 🤷♀️
It is a joke…but it is the brand that started it all. Every driver has a certain reverence towards Ferrari, it’s the childhood dream to drive there, and they may let go of that dream as they get older but I think it always remains this tiny boyhood bucket list item for them. I could be wrong 🤷♀️ but I think considering he probably was not seeing the gains at Merc he thought, what am I losing?
I agree it will be a disaster. The infighting will be diabolical. Two first drivers, one backed by a winning record, the other backed by the establishment….a horror story in 20 words.
I really think it’s saying something that Ferrari cannot just commit to Charles and bring in a second driver. What is their actual goal here? Road car sales? Headlines? Stock price jump? Fred is the one that has fucked up here imo, because Lewis has nothing to lose

Okay this is probably a sensitive topic but I find your blog to be really fair and balanced despite the drivers' fans from both sides may not think so. Anyway my question is that why do you think George should dislike Max (even Alonso) or refrain from hanging out with them? They're not great people sure but he's their co-worker. Not everyone can spend their careers isolating himself like Lewis has done, his reasons for doing so are justified so I am not blaming him at all, but George doesn't HAVE to do it. He can and should enjoy a relatively peaceful co-existence with his colleagues. He, Max, Lando, Alex have things in common too, they're in stable relationships, they are close in age, it makes sense for them to be casually friendly. He and Max will not be besties but I don't think it hurts to have a cordial relationship with your colleagues especially when you aren't personally affected by whatever they've done. Lewis is great but his burden is uniquely his, George or anyone else can't be expected to share it. I think it's a bit absurd to expect George to dislike his colleagues on Lewis' behalf especially when he will spend longer with them than Lewis. Lewis and George aren't even close enough to demand that sort of loyalty. I am sure Lewis knows and understands this too. I usually agree with a lot of what you say but I believe we shouldn't police who George can or cannot be friends with.
Because, I tend to not be friends with people who are dicks to my friends, particularly if those people are racist.
“Lewis is great but his burden is uniquely his” not to be rude anon, but no the fuck it ain’t. The burden is on everyone else to be anti racist, not on him to stand up to dehumanising treatment. That’s the bare minimum.
That’s all I really need to say- further rant under the cut because I was writing at 5am and it’s basically a given.
It’s a bit of an unfair twist to say Lewis has “isolated himself” when the treatment he’s isolating himself from is heavily laden in micro aggressions and on track behaviour that could have killed him.
Also, not to be that George fan, but if you really need a point not about Lewis - the vitriol aimed at Lewis and subsequently Mercedes ABSOLUTELY effects George. He has been subject to mocking and harassment from Red Bull fans from the SECOND he he was rumoured to have signed for Merc. He has spoken more than once about how horrible it feels to be Boo’d at tracks, because he is in Mercedes.
None of those fans gave half a fuck about him when he was in Williams, but when he became Lewis’ teammate suddenly his every interview was being called PR trained because it didn’t shit on Lewis or was actively praising. Some of you might not have been around for “PR63” but I sure was, and Merc comments would be full of homophobic tweets from Red bull fans, when they weren’t calling him a cry baby. Max may not be directly responsible for his fans- but he’s frankly never stopped them, if anything he ENCOURAGES them.
Max himself has also called George names, made thinly veiled homophobic insults, had people imply max wanted to attack him. Max said that George was being dramatic and attention seeking for being heartbroken after Sakhir, publicly undermined his efforts as GPDA director to increase safety, to the point George himself called him out for it, said that George should get out of his way when George wouldn’t just let him overtake in Baku, and more. On and off the track Max has insulted and belittled George, the people George loves (Alex, Lewis, Mercedes), and made his job both more dangerous and more boring.
Being cold to Max isnt out of the blue either- George was the first person to speak up about AD21 (literally while the race was ongoing, look up the infamous unacceptable tweet) and was one of the first to condemn piquet sr’s (Max’s defacto father in law) comments at the beginning of last year, to the point man other drivers copied his statement. My point is George has been frequently and outspokenly against stuff max does to the limit he is allowed to say. Shit I have friends who aren’t George fans who say they only thing they like about him is he will not fail to throw a dig at Red Bull and Max if he can- yes it’s for him but he is also using his privilege. Lewis doesn’t get to say those things or he’s labelled a bad sport, attacked by the press, sometimes even F1 itself and FURTHER ostracised. But George can say it, and often he does. It’s probably not “loyalty” that makes him do that, but just… basic friendship?
Let’s be real, I have to look the other way often about things both George AND Lewis do, they travel in circles I’ll never touch, and speak to people I don’t care for, and say shit I dislike. We live profoundly different lives and our bubbles are so different they might as well be on different continents. I don’t expect George calling him mv0 or telling everyone he hates him, the same way lewis doesn’t, because they work with him. But working with someone doesn’t grant them an automatic right to friendship. And frankly f1 drivers have this weird relationship with friendship vs teammates vs on track fights as it is
Just because someone is your coworker doesn’t mean they have to be your friend, especially if they’re a bigoted fuckin asshole.
#asks#anonymous#wank/rants#I have- very RECENTLY- stopped being friends with people who were being dicks to another friend#it’s the bottom line. it’s fucking uncomfortable sometimes#but it’s necessary and remaining neutral would have made me feel awful#im under no false belief george is running round thinking max should choke- those are JOKES#hell I bet if you asked him if they were friends he’d quibble before he said anything- I’m used to it#I live my f1 life by the adage ‘expect the worst but hope for the best’ and that’s how I see all f1 friendships#anti max verstappen#anti verstappen#I started writing this when I woke up in the middle of the night rather than going back to sleep#now I’m going to go back to sleep

Why is George Russell important to Mercedes PR plans in entering the Chinese market? — An opinionated talk by Ari
I'm not going to over speculate/over exaggerate the recent possibility of George promoting Mercedes (car company) in the Chinese market but if that really is the thing behind the whole douyin account thing, then allow me to do this talk about the whole possibility and why he's the right person if everything came true 😌😌
Why is he important? I've said lots of times on twitter (and maybe here i forgot) that George is a very good conversationalist. People use PR63 or PRussell to insult him but I do not think of it as an insult. Not everyone has natural born PR skills like George and if you look at some of the people in the grid? Fucking PR disasters whose image are saved by the work of their PR teams.
A good conversationalist like George can be seen from a) how he speaks b) the people he mingle with. Let's talk about point A. George might sound robotic to people who aren't used to/so fond of hearing PR speech but it is actually great because he answers those things diplomatically, weighing equally on the good and bad, rights and wrongs. Good and bad, rights and wrongs are heavily subjective. It differs from person to person. Having the ability to answer such questions diplomatically is a crazy talent. You might say "oh it's common sense, Ari" lol when you get out there and start working in the HR department/PR department, you'll notice that only 1% had that natural ability to be like George. And talking about speeches, forms of speeches extends beyond what is spoken verbally. Non verbal cues also shine through in this matter as the worst betrayer of a person is themselves and their non verbal cues. George is very good at controlling his non verbal cues. His expression, body language, gestures and much more. He is very good at controlling them (controlling ≠ hiding). He is very open with his body languages but also controls them very well (or it might just be him as an honest and good person tbh 😭) which is why these aspects made him a very good conversationalist.
The second one is the people he mingles with. "Ari he talks with that fraud FIA president and Fl*vi*" Gurl... I'm VERY sad to inform you that when you're in that position, you have 0 choice. It is very easy to be idealistic when you're not in that position but when you're in that position, it is not easy. This is the harsh truth. But aside from that, look at how easily he befriends people outside and inside the sport. From the executives, engineers and staff inside his team, other drivers on the grid, media, fans and more. He mingles with just anyone. And i think that might have to do with him being very good at finding people's hot buttons, being very responsive, a good listener and a good conversationalist. Those things are REAL talents because even me, myself, have not fully established those qualities despite studying these theoretical things myself in educational institutes and from obtaining real life experiences related to that. The people he mingles with shows that he is able to handle any kinds of diversity with such grace and respect. And respect won't happen without someone knowing and acknowledging the boundaries and differences as well as the concept of diversity.
Now we move on to the part of why he is so important to Mercedes PR plans for the chinese market.
Not every part of the world revolves with the european/american progressive mindsets and cultural values. Some parts of the world value the concept of cultural significance and emphasize a lot on respect (could be age/cultures/etc) which may be a bit lacking when compared to the european/american liberal progressive ways. And China is one of the latter countries. China is a very culturally rich country and they are very strong in the concept of respecting others. Those values are a part of the reason for where they are now internationally. They are very very proud of their own culture (as they should!) and living values. They are also a very innovative and creative country that uses every single thing at their disposal to the utmost.
To appeal to a country that is culturally rich and emphasizes heavily on their values and norms, they can't just pull a whole "let's do business" kind of thing. Every company/brand obviously needs someone, no matter if the impact ended up being small or big, to represent them. That representative will then be their ambassador/muse for them to appeal to the general public. And that's where George fits the criteria. A Formula One driver, one of the most followed on instagram (Top 10), having a pretty much solid spotlight on him in the sport, and on top of that, he is a very respectful, open minded, down to earth person who is also a good conversationalist that is REALLY REALLY great at networking.
George is also very strong and dedicated to his PR duties and obligations. He interacts well with his fans and is very good at creating a positive friendly environment and vibes for everyone. He is very good at networking and he knows the boundaries, both for the people he interacts with and the boundaries with Mercedes. He knows very well how to play the game and does everything so diplomatically.
There is a thin line between being diplomatic and being a "teacher's pet", "ass licker", "dick sucker" and others. The thin line is when someone is being diplomatic, they know how to not just please someone but also assert their stance on something politely and these people are not the kind of people that are pushovers. They know very well how to stand up for themselves, tug the necessary strings and others. While the so-called "teacher's pet", "ass licker", "dick sucker", they don't know how to do those things. They don't do it very well and could easily be a manipulative and cunning person. A diplomatic person is able to take advantage of a situation without pulling on some tricks, evil strings, and others. They do it so naturally while also asserting what they want and where they stand. That's what differentiates a diplomatic person and a "teacher's pet", "ass licker", "dick sucker".
So, these are the reasons why, in my opinion, George could make a very great piece to Mercedes PR plans on their chinese ventures. It's not all about marketability, popularity and those numbers you see on social media but what is also important is the individual themselves and how they carry themselves in real life, in front of the public, to the company and everyone else.

and FUCK britcedes. Even Nico has the courage to beat Lewis on merit rather than monitor his race and begging for team orders every race. PR63 remains pathetic, people who like him don't like Lewis tbh they have got to drop the acr and support that beg fulltime
fuck everyone who's not lewis

Like, is George not fun anymore or is George just not fun around YOU, Lando. I mean we’re talking about a man who has the fruitiest friendship with Danny Ric, who seems to still get along great with Alex and Nicky. Seemed like he was having fun surfing with Lewis. He’s not too serious to have fun. But if I was George, I would also be wary to have any sort of fun with a man who is seeped with jealousy and cannot seem to stop making backhanded comments about me. I mean that shit after Monaco? And it’s so much worse that he singled out the one thing George gets shit for every fucking day on the internet. The whole Mercedes made him boring and he’s now PR63 isn’t new. He’s been getting it from Day 1 and now supposedly his FRIEND has thrown him under the bus in a national newspaper. Fuck off with that.
#anti lando#anti lando norris#george russell#I’m so fucking tired of the shit George gets EVERYWHERE for EVERYTHING#when in reality he hasn’t done ANYTHING to receive the hate he does#it’s so fucking mind boggling#maybe Lando would mature if he’s still not mentally living in Sochi 2021#just cannot STAND the people around him doing well#it’s rancid fucking vibes#he’s not too serious#he’s MATURE#a grown man with responsibilities

These kids forget that merc have a literal 7 time (8*) wc on their team. They can keep writing their long ass paragraphs cuz lewis got lucky literally once in the past 15 races and wasn't fucked over by the safety car so georgie got all petty.
Your cats are really cute btw 💜
it’s not the first time pr63 is petty and it’s not just him being petty is about him being disrespectful to his teammate like lh really 🙄 unfortunately his pr days are over. if he wants to be a petty cunt good for him, but his fans need to understand that people will criticize him and we don’t need essays every race weekend 🤷🏼♀️
aw thank you 🫶🏻

I think he, Russell and Charles will always stay well.
His whole obsession is with Max.
Well, I think he can keep to be so. While people see him as "wise", but I see a 40 year old uncle obsessed with a 25 year old.
Because he is.
I hope he experiences the last lap of Abu Dhabi one more time before he retires.
Once Charles and George start challenging Lewis he will turn on them too.
The thing with Max is the fact Max has never looked up to Lewis, he’s respected Lewis but unlike George he never had star eyes looking at Lewis. Max has always been a threat to Lewis since 2016 when he won his first race and Lewis only gave him the tinniest amount of respect. The beginning of 2021 he apparently loved the challenge of racing Max till silverstone and he realized Max might actually beat him and he turned in a cunt. Max saying “maybe god is with him but he is not god” shows Maxs feeling towards how he looks at Lewis, just simply as another driver..nothing more.
He’s obsessed Max because he just knows Max is there to race. His little mind games don’t bother Max but he keeps trying cause he doesn’t understand why his words don’t affect Max that’s why he keeps saying what he says in the media about Max…he’s just simply an dick
#I cant wait when Merc implodes with pr63 and lh#it’s going to be fun to watch#the man uses the media to bully#but max couldn’t give a fuck#anon💜

What are your thoughts for Austria?
I unfortunately don't think that Merc will be as competitive but I'm so bloody proud of George for his actions, even if his team aren't. His parents seemed to have raised a good man.
probably won‘t be as strong as Silverstone, but we can only hope … who knows how many new ways ferrari find on how to fuck up and who knows when the red bull engine goes poof again 🤷🏽♀️
as for George, every time I think about his actions today I tear up a little and I am glad people are noticing that he‘s a great sportsman… and if i see one more pr63 in my life i am sharpening my knifes

as much as it pains me, I do not wish a successful season for Kimi Antonelli in F2. cause throwing a rookie with one year in F2 and completely skipping F3 into the deep water of F1 would destroy that boy before he would even turn 20. I hope he does a good job, finds his feet in the higher competition, has like 2 seasons in F2, and goes at first to Williams in 2026 and after one two years to Mercedes.
I mean, it just depends.
I feel like people are not looking at the potential pitfalls (I mean fans/ general public because I’m sure his team is on top of it) because we’re seeing rookies getting younger, and also because of Max. I hate to be that person to bring him into the conversation but he did start the trend of drivers being very young in F1. And because it worked out and he has achieved so much people are like “yeah so obviously it was fine”, which I think overlooks the level of preparation Max had from his environment, and also how much shit he put up with from the paddock. Just because he dealt with it well, it doesn’t mean that every driver would survive that pressure that young.
And also probably the timing is so unfortunate because Mercedes doesn’t have that many options for a short term driver until they are ready to take on Kimi so they might well be rushing the process. Not to mention, Toto will be under pressure to offer him a seat sooner because you can bet Helmut and every other team will be sniffing around him with the promise of a seat, and Toto already missed out on Max by not having a seat available for him.
I wouldn’t say I’d wish him a mediocre season, I would say I wish him a good season, and that he gets the fuck out of the Merc machine. Because a) other driver academies don’t have a dearth of drivers available. RB have enough current options and young drivers to give him time to develop, same with Ferrari and b) because Toto doesn’t deserve a generational talent, c) because to come in to a top team trying to rebuild, hot on the heels of LH leaving, with PR63 as a teammate, that’s not a battle you want to fight in your first year.
On the other hand, we don’t know if he does have the stuff to survive the same way Max did. He certainly seems to have the talent, and he definitely has the pedigree. So you can’t write it off that he has what it takes to come in young and deliver.
But I do think Merc is the team most likely to run him into the ground, so I hope he doesn’t stay with them.

I don’t really know what people is on when they first shit talk Mercedes, Lewis, George and the team and then proceed to say “X driver to Mercedes in 2024 when Lewis leaves”! Dudes, Mercedes is incredibly selective on their drivers, You have not only to bust your ass to get a chance, but also have certain talents and qualities required. There’s a reason why they’ve had 5:6 drivers in there since their creation as a team. Now my rant is done, I’ll go lay down and drown in britcedes feels, goodbye
Yeah I have a lot of thoughts on this honestly. Some nice and some not so nice lmao but all agreeing with you.
Long ramble under the cut bc I guess I wanted to get some stuff out of my brain and I can just refer back to this later if asked again lol.
And let me say first of all that look, I get it, I would bend over backwards and lie to myself and god when it comes to my favourite drivers. Part of me deeply and truly believes George and Lewis could walk into any other car in the grid if they asked, I really do. I don’t think they’d want to, but if they did, they could. Because we are ALL delusional about our faves. Sometimes it’s what makes this site so fun, we’re all a little stupid for these dudes.
But I have a very salty view of people who people who think certain drivers could just walk into Merc without a Nico level fall out, or a Lewis level of skill in the sport*. ESPECIALLY when it comes to “problematic” drivers like Lando, Max, Carlos, etc.
* more on that one in a sec, spoiler alert: they’ve already got that, his name is George.
I think what really grinds my gears about it (and I mean the people who SERIOUSLY think their driver has a shot at Merc, not people having fun) is it comes down to three tracks of thought; people who think Lewis is genuinely about to retire, people who seem to forget George exists, and people who seem to profoundly misunderstand how Merc work as an organisation.
The first one is easy to be annoyed at and dismiss, Lewis has made it clear over and over he’s not going anywhere. I’m rankled by people who think he’s suddenly going to retire bc of his age. Alonso is still here and he’s fuelled by salt rather than skill, you think Lewis is gonna go just bc he’s 38? He’s insane, and there is nothing he is more buck wild about than F1. I also don’t like thinking about Lewis retiring. Sue me.
The second I get but hate a lot. I’m a George fan, I am biased but George is ignored by a lot of people; and the narratives about him being PR63, even by some Lewis fans, are flimsy and shitty. He’s got so much heart in his stick thin frame that it flows out his ears. You look at him, past the surface for a couple seconds, and god you can see it shine like a beacon. He doesn’t answer Lewis and himself when he’s asked for the perfect driver line up because of PR, but because he fucking adores Lewis. He adores the team. He goofs around with them, spends time with them, he’s embedded with the engineers and mechanics. He seems boring off track because he’s private, but he has been going to dinners with them and travelling with them for years, he’s boring because he’s an old soul who puts focus on his family and his mental health. He does try to be funny online and people scoff at him. He posts shirtless pictures and he’s teased for it. Like what do you want from the guy; if he’s genuine he’s cringe and if he’s reserved he’s PR boring. Fuck that, he makes Lewis smile and that’s enough for me.
But then It’s because of his less than popular off track self that people look past him on track, and you shouldn’t because this man is insane. This is what I was talking about earlier when I said Merc have got their Lewis 2.0. George is him. He drives like Lewis, he’s learning to approach the garage like Lewis, he knows how to restrain himself to the media just like Lewis. Talk less, smile more, because they want to bait you more than anyone, they’re waiting for you to slip. Don’t give it to them and then unleash a terror that leaves other drivers blinking in shock on track. Singapore this year SHOULDN’T override Austria, when George drove from the back in a garbage car to finish 4th. He copied Lewis in Spain like a text book because that’s the kind of driver George is. He knows how to manage his tires because Lewis taught him. He says over and over again how important he finds it to learn from Lewis because Lewis is his standard of greatness. Merc have trained him like this, because together he and Lewis mesh well. They both know where to put their cars to make overtakes others wouldn’t, they drive like their cars are an extension of their body. Nothing bothers me more than people who set team line ups at Merc without Lewis or George, because it often assumes Lewis would retire and Merc would just… throw George out?
George Russell is grit, spirit, positivity and determination, and I feel like the people who don’t see him as an insanely impressive generational talent like Charles or Max are choosing not to look, or were blinded by how trash Williams was. I’d you don’t judge Mick on where haas dragged him down; you can’t judge George.
(Yet another place george is like Lewis, is he let the hard times humble him and make him better. He will never, ever have to struggle the same way Lewis did and he’s been afforded privileges that Lewis won’t, he himself will tell you that. But they were both boys from families without much money who’s parents struggled to let them follow their dreams. Why do you think Lewis likes him so much? He’s said it himself, he sees the same instinct he had, in George)
And finally the third thing I’ve probably spoken on most: some people really only see Merc as a fast car and not as a team. Which I guess is fair if you aren’t a massive fan of either of the boys. You think I’m invested in how mclaren or RB or Ferrari behave as organisations outside of drama? Of course I’m not. I barely even cared about Williams outside of GR and NL. But Merc is another breed of team honestly. Not to suck corporate dick bc you know I hate it but there’s a reason they aren’t really ever involved in silly season. Why them CHOOSING to hire George was monumental. They are unlike anyone else in how they cultured George. He’s been in the Merc garage on race weekends since 2016. They watched and carefully primed him for it, they made him work so hard for every step. I’m not sure they would have ever got rid of Nico and hired Val if he hadn’t chose to leave. Do you know how resistant they were to put anyone other than George in their car? They were worrying about who would take Lewis’ seat in Sakhir if they couldn’t get him. Their reserve driver, stoff, WAS RIGHT THERE.
If George hadn’t gone above and beyond to prove himself ready for Merc, they would have stuck with Valtteri. Merc play it safe and close to the chest far more than they’ll admit, I think it’s why our number one issue with races this year has been emergency strat choices. We so often play it safe and panic when pushed. And that’s why I end up laughing at some driver move theories bc it’s like really? You think, safe playing, elitist weirdos Merc are gonna do that??
The only driver on the 22/23 grid I genuinely, truly think Merc would consider putting in their car if LH decided to split second retire, or George, idk, stabbed Toto in the leg, is Esteban Ocon or MAYBE they’d go back to VB if VaL would be willing to accept the pressure of the seat again. They like Ocon, he has history with the team, he’s got some real promise in his development, and he’s got a lil bastard in him they like their drivers to have. But that would ONLY happen if they had 0 prep time and had to pick another grid driver. Merc have their dream team right now.

It is because he is posh, arrogant, self obsessed, too much PR oriented and I find him cringey. This is what I think about PR63. I'm sorry that I offended some George fans here. Guess I'm stupid because I don't kiss their favorite's ass
…Bestie you sound like a scorned lover. Feel what you’re gonna feel, hate who you’re gonna hate.
Its not that I’m offended so much as caught off. You have roiling hatred for the guy, I just don’t really care about him either way…? Happy to talk shit I suppose but I’d also probably fuck him sober so?
