“In Formula 1… if you finish in 1st position… [dramatic pause] …you will win the race” This very line took Twitter by storm and catapulted the popularity of F1 presenter Will Buxton. The Britisher has since been the crown jewel of many iconic memes. However, this time, he was in the news for a completely different reason.

Buxton has been working with Liberty Media for years now. His unmatched energy, passion, and curiosity on the grid make him a very exciting personality to watch. Having worked around F1 teams for so many years, Buxton knows what happens behind the scenes and is friends with many people on the grid. The Britisher is intelligible when it comes to Formula One knowledge, and though his hilarious statements from DTS cannot be overlooked, he has been a treat to watch.

The fellow Brit was out-qualified by rival Valtteri Bottas in an Alfa Romeo. Fans were quick to dig out past facts and dragged Russell unapologetically.

Buxton backed Russell a while ago

Everyone is well versed with the relationship Russell and Bottas have. Only a few months back, the pair shared some cold moments. While Russell was eager to succeed Bottas as the new Mercedes driver, Valtteri wouldn’t let his seat go without a fight. Furthermore, this situation also resulted in a race crash where Russell slapped Bottas’ helmet. Incidentally, when Bottas out qualified, a Mercedes, that too the one George was driving, people did not let that simply slide.
