His steering inputs are very smooth, very much like Jenson Button used to be. Not sawing at it like Stroll was at the start of the season. Very nice to watch.
Some might say that's because he's not doing a quali run, so he doesn't need to drive aggressively but JB used to be smooth in all scenario.
Stroll used to be very aggressive on the wheel even when not on a fast lap as well also.

Wolff on Russell

We will see how George is going to go in F2.
He does a brilliant job for us in the simulator, he has met our expectations in winning the GP3 title, Force India is very impressed by him.
F2 is the next step. We're keen to see how he's going to perform.

Russell on top at final day of Le Castellet FIA FORMULA 2 TEST

The 2017 GP3 Series champion lead an ART Grand Prix 1-2 in the fastest times of the day, with his 1:42.396s lap from the morning session remaining unbeatable as the final day at Paul Ricard drew to a close.

After experiences some technical issues throughout the opening two days of testing, Russell hit back with a brace of laps which were good enough to top the times today. The beginning of the session saw the Mercedes-AMG Petronas Motorsport Formula One Reserve Driver hit the top spot on the medium tyres, before usurping that later on after trading fastest times with teammate Jack Aitken.

Russell completed 47 laps in the first session, which saw him make up for the lost running on Wednesday as well as beginning to maximise the potential of the ART Grand Prix prepared Dallara F2/18.
The afternoon session was focused around long runs and race setups, which saw the Briton accumulate a further 60 laps to his tally - completing 107 laps in a productive final day of the first test.

George Russell said

After a very tricky Day 2 of testing after a number of small mechanical issues which cost us a lot of time and laps, it was great to finally have a trouble free day and get some proper laps behind the new car.
We couldn't have ended the 3 day test in a better way, so I'm feeling good heading into our Bahrain test

When the test began on Tuesday, Russell and teammate Aitken spent most of the morning session in the pits, after a serious technical issue developed on Aitken's car, limiting the teams running while the issue was resolved. Russell managed to cover only 8 laps in the wet session to kick off the test.
The afternoon saw both cars able to get crucial mileage for the team, with Russell setting the 5th fastest time, whilst completing 20 laps on the now drying circuit.

Wednesday morning saw Russell set the 6th fastest time in the morning session, with a 37 lap haul - before he was forced to stop on track with 20 minutes of the session remaining, bringing out the red flags.
The afternoon was a frustrating session, where Russell was still blighted with reliability issues- only allowing him to complete 9 laps of the Paul Ricard Circuit.

The final day was a strong recovery from the reigning GP3 Series Champion, as the team managed to gain valuable data on how the Pirelli tyres work with the new for 2018 F2/18 car on both qualifying and race style runs.

Russell will be back in action for the second FIA Formula 2 Official Test at the Sakhir International Circuit in Bahrain, on the 21-23 March, just a fortnight before the series returns to the circuit, this time for the opening round of the 2018 FIA Formula 2 Championship on the 6-8 April.

Mercedes junior Russell set to test for two F1 teams

Russell is expected to test for Mercedes this season but is also set to resume a relationship with its customer team that started with free practice outings in Brazil and Abu Dhabi last season.

Motorsport.com understands this could include some more Force India free practice running, while the young driver tests at Barcelona (May 15-16) or Budapest (July 31-August 1) and Pirelli tyre tests are options for Russell to get on-track mileage in Mercedes’ own W09.
Russell told Motorsport.com that testing for Mercedes was “on the cards, and on top of that I would love to get behind the wheel of a Force India again”.

He called Force India “a great place I can start my F1 career” after impressing in his free practice runs last year.

“There’s no reason we shouldn’t continue to build on that relationship throughout this season,” the 2014 McLaren Autosport BRDC Award winner said.
Russell is confident that success with ART in F2 this year, combined with impressing Mercedes and Force India with whatever simulator and on-track opportunities he is given, will result in a graduation to F1 in 2019.

“Force India is the place that I’m looking towards for next season,” he said. “We’re continuing a relationship this year and there’s no reason why that shouldn’t expand into a full-time seat next year.

“The great thing with Mercedes is they give the young drivers an opportunity if they deserve it.

“If I perform this season in F2 and Mercedes believe I’ve done a good enough job to justify an F1 seat, they will find a seat for me.”
