Russell admits to being at 'low point' before F1 title resurgence

George Russell has admitted he was at a "low point" before closing his title-race deficit to Mercedes team-mate Kimi Antonelli over the last two rounds of the 2026 Formula 1 season.

Russell won in Austria on Sunday to claim his first grand prix victory since the opening race of the season, regaining second in the Drivers' Championship from Ferrari's Lewis Hamilton and closing back to within 40 points of Antonelli.
