Following his teammate Valtteri Bottas, George Russell is also considering a new career. The Mercedes driver is thinking about releasing his own nude calendar, just like the Finnish reserve driver for Mercedes did in the past.
A journalist reminded George Russell after his victory that he had promised to take a swim if he won the race. Upon that, the Brit first swore, then explained: “We have this crazy German living in Los Angeles who rejoined us this weekend.”
"He's a friend of Valtteri's and is probably an inspiration for Valtteri's nude calendars and the mullet and all of this stuff. He's in the room with us today, and he’s the one who said, “If I win, we need to jump in the lake.” So, Thanks for the reminder."

To which Russell says: "Well, I’m considering the calendar. If I don’t have a contract next year, I need to bring the calendar out to bring the income in."
