F1 drivers Antonelli and Russell discuss mental pressure management
Formula 1 drivers Andrea Kimi Antonelli and George Russell are focusing on mental performance and psychological support to manage the pressures of the championship.
Antonelli, currently leading the standings, shared advice received from tennis legend Roger Federer during Wimbledon. Federer encouraged him to focus on one race at a time and to control his emotions to avoid errors.
George Russell, who is trailing in the standings, has been working with a sports psychologist since 2020. Russell stated that this collaboration helps him manage race weekend pressure, channel his energy throughout the season, and maintain confidence by reflecting on his past successes.
