As shared by the Mercedes AMG F1 team’s official social media accounts, the Briton was seen enjoying every meme he came across. In the four-minute-long video, Russell embraced the popular meme culture.
First, the Mercedes driver gave a bit of context for the pose before he moved on to the review. He said that he did “millions” of things before he finally chose the pose.
Moving on to the featured memes, there were cowboy Russell, Russell in Korena Pop band, The little Russell, and the new Mercedes update with Russell as the front wing.
The list also included the Mercedes driver edited inside the arrows of the Mercedes logo, Russell separating the Petronas Twin Towers, and the most impressive T-shaped man.

In the end, the former Williams driver thanked the fans for the hilarious memes they made. He said he went through a lot more than they were shown in the video. This comes right after the British driver won and lost the podium place in the controversial Saudi Arabian Grand Prix.
