via f1oversteer.comKarun Chandhok tells George Russell to follow in Nico Rosberg’s footsteps to set up 2027 titleGeorge Russell's hopes of winning the Formula 1 Drivers' Championship have diminished following a disappointing DNF at the Bahrain Grand Prix, which has left him 84 points behind Kimi Antonelli. With only seven races remaining in the 2026 season, Russell's focus should shift towards securing race victories rather than chasing the title, as suggested by Karun Chandhok.
Chandhok drew parallels to Nico Rosberg's 2015 season, where Rosberg, after losing the championship, concentrated on winning races and carried that momentum into the following year. Russell, who was initially seen as a strong contender for the title, must now use the remainder of the season to build a foundation for a potential title challenge in 2027.f1oversteer.comTue 6 Oct · 06:00 UTC
