Toto Wolff must be "like a parent helping a weaker child" if one of his Mercedes drivers begins to struggle more than the other this year, according to one former Formula 1 racer.
Given Lewis Hamilton is a seven-time F1 champion with a wealth of experience, it would be easy to assume George Russell might be the one in need of some extra assistance. But the way things panned out last year told a different story.
Both of them were out of title contention due to their car, which was not as competitive as they would have liked. But overall, despite that difficulty, Russell was the most consistent across the year and finished his maiden campaign with the team with 35 points more than his fellow Brit.
