拉塞尔巴库F1夺冠引发"破解密码"论
詹姆斯·欣奇克利夫质疑拉塞尔是否已在梅赛德斯"破解了密码"
前印地赛车系列赛车手、F1电视评论员詹姆斯·欣奇克利夫认为，拉塞尔可能已经完全释放了梅赛德斯赛车的性能，质疑这位英国车手是否"破解了密码"，从而相对队友基米·安东内利取得优势。
拉塞尔统治了阿塞拜疆大奖赛整个周末，在巴库城市赛道夺得杆位并赢下正赛。目前在车手积分榜上领先的安东内利在排位赛中发生撞车。
安东内利从发车位的第16位起步，最终获得第五名，拿到10个积分，而拉塞尔拿到了25分。因此，拉塞尔将这位意大利车手的积分榜优势缩小到66分。
欣克利夫在F1 Nation播客节目中谈到了拉塞尔的表现。
“对我来说有意思的是，即使在其他赛道上，当乔治在练习中做出好的单圈、有出色的排位表现时，在正赛中基米始终还是占据上风，哪怕乔治赢下比赛的时候也是如此，”欣克利夫解释道。
“回想一下巴塞罗那，他在基米的赛车报废之前完成了对基米的超越。在奥地利他也在不断追赶前面所有人。而今天情况不一样了。基米没有乔治那样的速度。整个周末基米都没有乔治那样的速度。”
"好吧，他确实在第一节练习赛缺席了几圈，但他有第二节练习赛，也有第三节练习赛。他是职业车手，能很快进入状态。我真正好奇的是，拉塞尔是不是已经破解了密码？他是不是找到了什么？他是不是弄明白了如何从这辆车上多榨出那一点点性能？因为整个周末，安东内利任何时候都没能接近他的水平。"
欣克利夫补充道："我不是说他已经做到了，但我很好奇，等到了马来西亚、到了新加坡，我们会不会看到他更接近一些，尤其是在比赛节奏方面，也许他终于开始把所有拼图拼到一起了。"

George Russell Baku F1 win sparks "cracked the code" theory
James Hinchcliffe has questioned whether George Russell has "cracked the code" at Mercedes
Former IndyCar Series driver and F1 TV pundit James Hinchcliffe believes George Russell may have unlocked the performance of his Mercedes machinery, questioning whether the Briton has "cracked the code" to gain an edge over his team-mate Kimi Antonelli.
Russell dominated the Azerbaijan Grand Prix weekend, taking pole position and winning the race at the Baku City Circuit. Antonelli, who leads the drivers' championship, crashed during qualifying.
After starting from 16th on the grid, Antonelli finished fifth, collecting 10 points compared to Russell's 25. As a result, Russell reduced the Italian's championship advantage to 66 points.
Speaking on the F1 Nation podcast, Hinchcliffe discussed Russell's performance.
"What's interesting for me is even at other tracks when George has been able to pull out good laps in practice, a good qualifying effort, in the race Kimi's always still had the edge, even when George has won," Hinchcliffe explained.
"You think back to when he passed him in Barcelona before Kimi's car expired. He was closing down on everybody in Austria. Today they didn't have that. Kimi did not have the pace of George. Kimi didn't have the pace of George all weekend long.
"Fine, he missed some laps in first practice, but he had FP2. He had FP3. He's a professional. He gets up to speed quickly. What I'm really curious about is, has George cracked the code a little bit? Has he found something? Has he figured out how to get that extra step of performance out of this car? Because at no point this weekend was Kimi anywhere close to his level."
Hinchcliffe added: "And I'm not saying that he has, but I'm curious if we get to Malaysia, if we get to Singapore, if we start seeing him closer, especially in race pace, maybe he has finally started to put all the pieces together."
