George Russell has always been at the centre of Mercedes’ social media content
A fan has come up with some ideas about how Mercedes’ Geroge Russell could prepare his pose for his Formula 1 introduction ahead of the upcoming season. With Russell yet to choose his new pose, the British racer asked his fans for some help. Going by the request, a girl shared some suggestions forRussell’sintro pose in a video. The F1 star watched the full video and his reaction was shared by the Mercedes team on social media platform X, formerly Twitter. Russell loved the ideas as he was heard saying in the video, “I’m honoured that you have suggested these poses for the 2024 race season. I’m gonna start practising right now.”
“Better get practising,” read the caption of the post shared on X.
In the last edition’s promotional video, George Russell was found posing with his head down and arms outstretched, Russell was captured standing in his racing suit in front of the Mercedes logo. Speaking about the viral topic, the 25-year-old had earlier said that he first did the pose accidentally but the videographer found it quite cool and immediately showed a thumbs-up.
With the racing community gearing up for a new season, F1 is set to record a fresh opening sequence. While the shoot is yet to begin, Russell looks desperate to steal the show with a more unique pose this term. “The pressure going into that F1 video shoot next year is gonna be through the roof because I’ve no idea what I’m gonna do next year. But I’ve got to top it somehow. I don’t know how,” Russell said on Mercedes’ YouTube channel.
George Russell has always been at the centre of Mercedes’ social media content. His team recently used an AI photo generator to give Russell a dramatic 1970s makeover. His look became an instant hit among the racing fans.
Since the 2022 regulations came into effect, the Marcedes team has looked quite pale and George Russell joined the squad at the same time. Thus, the United Kingdom-born driver was never able to represent the dominant Silver Arrows during the turbo-hybrid era.
