Formulation 1 driver has revealed that he would love the chance to strive NASCAR in a video with 2023 Cup champion Ryan Blaney.
In a video organised by WhatsApp, the drivers visited Ford’s Farm in Homestead, Florida, owned by Michelin-starred chef Jeremy Ford, the place they accomplished farm-related duties corresponding to selecting ylang-ylang flowers, driving a tractor and accumulating eggs and honey.

Afterwards, Russell and Blaney sat down with Ford for lunch and mentioned farms, racing and what life might appear to be for them after retiring.
“I respect all types of racing and I do know the challenges in the whole lot we do,” Russell advised Blaney. “Clearly, lots of people for you guys on the ovals simply suppose you are driving circles. And it is a lot extra technical than that. I positively respect it. I would like to strive it at some point.”
Blaney welcomed the thought and recommended a swap of F1 and NASCAR equipment. “Effectively, we would should do a crossover, for positive,” Blaney responded. “I did not actually develop up open-wheel racing in any respect, however I really like street racing. It was an enormous factor for me to study once I received into NASCAR as a result of we do this fairly a bit, and it is one thing I did not actually develop up doing.”

This comes after a string of difficult races for Russell. After profitable the season-opening Australian Grand Prix and the Chinese language dash race, issues took a flip for the 28-year-old. As he encountered a number of points, corresponding to automotive issues and sadly timed security automobiles, his 19-year-old team-mate Kimi Antonelli took the lead of the championship.
Heading into the Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix on 12-14 June, Antonelli now leads the standings by 66 factors and Russell sits third after he was overtaken by on the Monaco Grand Prix.
