Ahead of last weekend's Eifel GP, George Russell ventured out onto the Nürburgring's daunting Nordschleife, commonly know as motorsport's 'Green Hell'.

And the Williams driver's ride around the fearsome 20.81km circuit was none other than a fierce 'green beast' supplied by Mercedes, an AMG GT R.

Russell warmed up to the track's 154 corners with his performance coach Aleix Casanovas in the passenger before setting out on his own and upping the pace.

"We should bring the Williams out here and go for the track record," commented the Briton.

We'll second that Georgy!

In the interim, strap yourself in alongside Russell and enjoy the ride.
