Video: Follow Georges Russell in the sim and gym

He may only be a Mercedes junior driver but Georges Russell's days away from the race track are anything but leisurely.

The 19-year-old, who enjoyed his first outing in Mercedes' W08 in Hungary this week, currently races in the GP3 series but is often called upon during the week by the Silver Arrows squad to handle valuable simulator work.

And then there's the physical training which is undertaken to keep the body in check with racing's requirements, present and future.

This short Mercedes-AMG F1 video gives a glimpse into a typical day's work with Mercedes for Georges Russell.
