Lewis Hamilton and George Russell share a unique bond

We’re all really happy to see Hamilton bonding with his teammate so naturally. The last time we saw this was with Nico Rosberg, where the two drivers actually really admired each other. However, racing can be a cruel business as later on Rosberg and Hamilton got into a cold fight where both of them desperately wanted the title.

Nobody knows where this friendship will go as of now. But honestly, we wish for the best. Russell is a very determined young talent, who might just prove to be faster than Lewis in the same car.
