Summary

George Russell has said he will not let a difficult Formula One season define his career and still believes he can win the world championship one day. The 28-year-old Mercedes driver has been outdriven this season by his 20-year-old teammate Kimi Antonelli, who is set to win the title and become F1's youngest world champion at this weekend's Mexican Grand Prix if he finishes ninth or higher. Antonelli has missed media duties with a "viral illness".
