"I recently watched the Rafa [Nadal] documentary and also the Ronaldinho documentary," George Russell said on Thursday in Barcelona when asked how he was going to 'clear his head' after all the recent setbacks.
"It's not plain sailing every tournament, every match, every season. Ronaldinho was a hero of mine. I didn't realise that he had so many years and matches and competitions of struggle. We always only remember the highlights of all of these greats. [But] everybody goes through these moments, whether it's through personal performance, things out of their control, injury - whatever it is.
