Russell states he had to rethink his goals when first entered Formula One

In the press conference, when RaceFans asked him what had changed from when he first entered the scene, Russell replied, “It was very clear growing up, from when I was eight years old until I got to Formula 1, the goal was to win.”

“[Whether] you had a successful weekend was based on if you put it on pole and then won the races or not. Then suddenly in F1, those goals drastically changed,” Russell concluded.
