Russell answers your questions on Kubica and life at the back of F1
George Russell hasn't yet enjoyed the success of his fellow 2018 Formula 2 graduates in Formula 1, but is making his own impact with Williams. In answering your questions he explains why driving at the back is harder than it looks, and why he enjoys hanging out with Frank Williams and Robert Kubica
With Williams being a shadow of its once glorious self in Formula 1 right now, it would be easy to overlook the quietly superb performances of George Russell, who has adapted quite brilliantly to the unique demands of grand prix racing during his rookie season at motorsport's highest level.
Racing at the back of the grid means Russell avoids the glare of the spotlight that shines so intently on his 2018 Formula 2 rivals Lando Norris and Alex Albon (who he beat last year, by the way).
