乔治·拉塞尔说，在F1车手锦标赛中排名第二对他来说“没有任何意义”，因为在美国大奖赛之后，刘易斯·汉密尔顿、马克斯·维斯塔潘和查尔斯·勒克莱尔都紧追不舍
梅赛德斯车手在奥斯汀赛事中因在赛道外行驶并获得优势而受到五秒罚时，最终排名第8。
这位英国人的梅赛德斯队友基米·安东内利赢得了比赛，现在距离冠军只有一步之遥，但身后的竞争突然变得非常激烈。
在美洲赛道赛事之后，第二名的拉塞尔和第三名的汉密尔顿之间只有一分之差。维斯特潘和勒克莱尔分别排在第四和第五位，分别落后拉塞尔六分和九分。
当被问及保持第二名的位置对他来说有多重要时，拉塞尔明确表示他的重点是车队制造商锦标赛。
“对我来说，只要我们赢得车队冠军，那就是最重要的，”拉塞尔解释道。“对于车队来说，显然我希望我们能成为其他车队中成绩最好的，但第二、第三、第五名并不是冠军，所以这并不代表什么。”
拉塞尔在奥斯汀赛车周末赛前接受媒体采访时，谈到了他对本赛季冠军争夺战的看法，他表示自己的看法一直处于起伏不定之中。
他说：“就我本赛季的心态而言，我对锦标赛的看法也是起伏不定。”
“年初的时候，我落后很多积分，让我夜不能寐的是我的表现和思考，‘我如何提高我的表现？我需要从车上得到什么？车需要我从驾驶中得到什么？’而不是我的机会可能错失。”
“然后我从70分落后到银石赛道后的25分，然后差距又扩大了，接着发生了巴库的事情。这让我再次感到机会很大。”
“一周后，它又有点下降了，新加坡的罚站让伤口更加疼痛。所以，这个赛季本来就不是注定要成功的。我对这个结果并不怨恨。”
“我不怨恨。我会回顾那些我可以做得更好、应该做得更好的领域，而不是那些我无法控制、对我不利的事情。我会说，在运气不好的方面，和我表现不佳、没有达到我知道自己能够达到的标准一样多。这就是现实。”

George Russell shrugs off F1 championship P2 fight after difficult US GP
George Russell has dismissed the importance of finishing second in the drivers' championship as Lewis Hamilton, Max Verstappen and Charles Leclerc close in
For Mercedes fans. All the latest from the Silver Arrows, with F1 news, driver updates, car development and race analysis from Brackley and Brixworth.
George Russell says finishing second in the Formula 1 drivers' championship "doesn't mean anything" to him as Lewis Hamilton, Max Verstappen and Charles Leclerc all close in after the United States Grand Prix.
The Mercedes driver finished eighth in Austin after being handed a five-second penalty for leaving the track and gaining an advantage while fighting McLaren's Oscar Piastri.
The Briton's Mercedes team-mate Kimi Antonelli won the race and is now on the verge of the title, but the battle behind him has suddenly become very tight.
Only one point separates second-placed Russell and third-placed Hamilton after the race at the Circuit of the Americas. Verstappen and Leclerc sit fourth and fifth, six and nine points behind Russell.
Asked how important it was to him to hold on to second in the standings, Russell made it clear his focus was on the constructors' championship.
"For me, as long as we win the constructors', that's the main thing," Russell explained. "For the team, obviously I'd like to finish best of the rest, but P2, P3, P5 is not champion, so it doesn't mean anything."
Russell had opened up about his mentality towards the title fight this season while speaking to the media ahead of the race weekend in Austin, explaining that his view of the championship had been "up and down".
"I guess in terms of my mentality this season, my view of the championship has been up and down," he said.
"Early in the year, when I had a big points deficit, the thing that was keeping me up at night was my lack of performance and thinking, 'How am I going to improve my performance? What do I need from the car? What does the car need from my driving?' Rather than my opportunity maybe going amiss.
"And then I came from 70 points down to within 25 points post Silverstone and then the gap extended, and then Baku happened. That felt pretty big in terms of my chances again.
"One week later, it sort of kicked down again and salt added to the wound with the grid penalty in Singapore. So, this season just wasn't meant to be. I'm not bitter about it.
"I'm not. I'll look back on the areas I could have done better and should have done better as opposed to things that have been out of my control that have gone against me. And I'd say as much has gone against me in terms of bad luck, there's been as much of my performances that haven't been to the standard that I know I'm capable of. So, that's the reality of it."
