乔治·拉塞尔分享了他与银石的童年渊源,以及为何拒绝了规模更大的看台方案。
乔治·拉塞尔解释了他为何为自己的新专属银石看台选择Farm Curve。
乔治·拉塞尔公开谈论了在银石为他的支持者设立专属看台一事。
本周宣布,这位英国车手将从2027年起在主场大奖赛拥有“乔治·拉塞尔看台”。
该看台将位于Farm Curve,持票者将获得三天固定座位、赛前寄送的官方乔治·拉塞尔T恤,以及主舞台头条演出、Drivers Inn、娱乐区、F1 Fanzone和银石博物馆的入场权限。
“明年的看台会非常酷,”拉塞尔在梅赛德斯社交媒体的一段视频中解释道。“我想做这件事已经好几年了。当兰多(诺里斯)设立看台时,我心想,‘啊,被他抢先了!’
“但它仍然是一个如此特别的地方。能回馈车迷、做些酷事、成为社区的一部分,并把不同的车迷聚在一起,这太棒了。我觉得这真的非常非常好。”
尽管有更大的看台可供拉塞尔选择,但他解释了自己为何选择稍小一些的看台,以便让持票者获得绝佳的赛道动作视野。
“我们本可以选择其他更大的看台,”他继续说道。“但我想要选那个位置,因为从那个看台能看到最多的弯角。你能看到前四个弯。你会看到比赛起步,你会看到3号弯和4号弯的超车。你还能看到维修区出口。我认为那是最好的位置。”
他回顾了童年第一次参观银石的记忆,当时他支持红牛车队的塞巴斯蒂安·维特尔。
“成长到如今的位置,并在F1和梅赛德斯的旅程中前行,真的非常特别。银石承载了太多回忆。我记得2009年。那是我在银石的第一个记忆。
“信不信由你,我当时其实穿着红牛夹克,支持塞巴斯蒂安·维特尔。说实话,我不知道他是否知道这件事。那也是雾角盛行的时代。
“所以,某处有我这样一张照片:夹克遮到下巴,拿着雾角,头发垂到这里,完全盖住耳朵,还是个锅盖头。那就是我的第一个记忆。”
门票优先购买通道将于9月23日周三下午2点开放,随后于9月24日周四全面开售。

George Russell shares childhood Silverstone connection and why he rejected bigger grandstand
George Russell has explained why he chose Farm Curve for his new dedicated Silverstone grandstand
George Russell has opened up about launching his own dedicated grandstand for his supporters at Silverstone.
It was announced this week that the British driver would have the George Russell Grandstand at his home grand prix circuit from 2027.
The grandstand will be located at Farm Curve and ticketholders will get a three-day reserved seat, an official George Russell T-shirt delivered ahead of the race weekend and access to the main stage headline performances, the Drivers Inn, entertainment zones, the F1 Fanzone and the Silverstone Museum.
"The grandstand's going to be really cool next year," Russell explained in a video for Mercedes' social media. "I've been wanting to do it for a number of years. When Lando went in, I was like, 'Ah, beat me to it!'
"But still it was such a special place. It's just great to almost give something back to the fans, and do something cool, be part of the community, and bring different fans together. I think that's really, really nice."
While larger grandstands were available for Russell, he explained why he chose a slightly smaller one to give ticketholders a great view of the on-track action.
"There were other grandstands that were bigger that we could have chosen," he continued. "But I wanted to choose that spot because you can see the most number of corners from that grandstand. You've got the first four corners. You'll see the race start, you'll see overtakes into Turn 3 and into Turn 4. You'll see the pitlane exit as well. I think that's the best spot."
He reflected on his first memory of visiting Silverstone as a child, supporting Red Bull's Sebastian Vettel.
"Growing into where we are now and being on my journey with F1 and Mercedes has been really, really special. Silverstone, it holds so many memories. I remember 2009. That was my first memory at Silverstone.
"I was actually there in a Red Bull jacket, believe it or not, supporting Sebastian Vettel. I don't know if he knows this, to be honest. And that was the era, as well, where you had the foghorns.
"So, there's this image of me somewhere with this jacket over my chin with the foghorn, my hair down here, fully covering my ears and a bowl cut. So that was my first memory."
Priority access to tickets will be available at 2pm on Wednesday 23 September before they go on general sale on Thursday 24 September.
