Russell predicts ‘six-way fight’ for Silverstone win

George Russell achieved an impressive fourth-place grid slot for the British Grand Prix, a result he "definitely would have taken" after Mercedes' challenging Friday. Despite earlier struggles with pace, Russell found form as temperatures dropped, securing his position just a tenth off pole. He believes a podium is within reach on home soil and expects a "six-way fight" for victory, acknowledging Mercedes "overachieved a little bit" in qualifying. His teammate, Kimi Antonelli, qualified seventh but faces a grid penalty, starting further back. Antonelli hopes for strong race pace to recover.
