George Russell's breakthrough victory last Sunday at the Brazilian Grand Prix will be "the first of many".
That is the view of Formula 1 legend David Coulthard, who was commentating for Channel 4 when Russell became the sport's 20th British race winner. He crossed the line narrowly ahead of team-mate Lewis Hamilton, in a landmark result for Mercedes towards the end of a difficult season.
The 24-year-old was unlucky not to break his duck when filling in for Hamilton at the 2020 Sakhir Grand Prix. Mercedes problems this year made it seem like that first victory would still be a long way away, but the stars aligned for Russell at Interlagos last weekend.
