George Russell was "a revelation" in his impressive first season as a Mercedes driver, in the eyes of former champion Mario Andretti.
The Brit was always expected to fare well with the Silver Arrows, after impressing in his early Formula 1 years with Williams. He also lived up to the billing when called up to replace the Covid-stricken Lewis Hamilton in Sakhir in 2020, and may have won the race had it not been for a team pit stop blunder followed by a puncture.
Even despite that, not many expected him to outshine seven-time world champion Hamilton over the course of the season. But that's what Russell did, scoring 35 points more than his Mercedes team-mate thanks to his consistent results.
