George Russell, the boy from King’s Lynn, UK, is pipped to lead Mercedes into its new era. However, way before Russell became a Formula 1 driver, the world set its eyes on the Brit. The young boy was using Twitter for his own gain. However, that old tweet from 2014 has resurfaced and fans are sharing their hilarious reaction.

To give you some context, the Brit was still involved in open-wheel racing back in 2014. In fact, in the space of 10 days, the then-16-year-old made a name for himself in the racing community. Russell earned a wild-card entry in an ultra-competitive Formula Renault Eurocup. He even clinched the BRDC Formula 4 championship in a dramatic comeback.

These two incidents, one after the other, even won him the McLaren Autosport BRDC Award. Russell even credited these events as a major contributor to his career. He once told The Race, “I think it made my career.”

Although despite the accolades, Russell still couldn’t win the heart of a young lady. A young lady called Alarna Jade of Lake District, Manchester, UK. How do we know that? It’s the untethered tweet.

Russell replied to Alarna Jade’s one tweet back in 2014 with a simple, “snap ✋”.
