I get George isn’t as instantly likeable as other drivers but don’t get how he is seen as the only one putting himself first on the grid? F1 is cut throat and all teams and drivers are out for themselves. If the opportunity to drive for a better perceived team came up every driver would try to take it if they felt it was a better option for them personally. Look at DR he put himself first twice. Racing point getting rid of checco the better driver to keep their finances with Stroll. Just some examples. It’s just the way F1 is.I feel really mean saying this but the only vibe George Russell gives me is that of the mean guy/villain Robbie Rotten from Lazy Town back in the day.
I think George will take advantage of opportunities presented to him and that he will always put himself first. Lando stays with McLaren because they have a two-sided loyalty thing going on. I think George is only loyal to himself. As long as it serves him, he will stick around, but if Lewis whips himself back into shape and becomes a bigger competitive threat to George, I can imagine George looking around for another seat.
