Mercedes opened its doors in Brackley to two special visitors on Monday who were given the royal tour of the F1 team's HQ.
Alison and Steve Russell were all smiles as they held two of their son's F1 trophies, a first for the Mercedes driver's proud parents.
As Russell pointed out in a post on social media, his motorsport career and journey to Formula 1 has been "a proper family effort".
And as he witnessed the occasion, Russell was just as proud as his Mom and Dad "to see the smiles on their faces".
