george trying his best not to insult the vegas track is so funny

It's actually nice to hear this from an actual driver tbh lol

5:25 "Red Bull Ring. I mean just for the name it's got to go in the Meh column, hasn't it?" 😂😂

George Russell is the type of guy to apologize for his own tier list rankings. 😂

I feel like 4 tiers isn't enough for all these tracks. For Silverstone, Suzuka, and Spa there was zero hesitation so they would probably have made it into an even higher tier if there was one.

George Russell is the type of guy to say, “Lets get cracking”.

I would love a Mick teaches George German (slang) edition please 😂

I love the fact that everybody loves interlagos! Such an iconic track that delivers good races time and time again. I also love that the laps are short and full of possible battles

For me, my favourite track will always be suzuka. Fast flowing, unique unbelievable. Still can remember Lewis in 2018 radioing in during practice saying he is having the best time.

George Russell is the type of guy to rank in between tiers.

I love George's reasoning for each track😂❤

Awesome video but now we also need a Lewis version! 😉

Thought this might help people (like me) to refer back to when picking tracks on the playstation. Top Tier: Imola: Considers it a spectacular circuit. Jeddah: Praises it for the driving experience among new circuits. Zandvoort: Enjoys the fast and flowing nature of the track. Interlagos: Holds a special place as his first F1 win. Silverstone: One of the best circuits on the calendar. Suzuka: Another top circuit, similar to Silverstone. Spa-Francorchamps: A classic and highly praised circuit. Between Great and Top Tier: Monaco: Considers it a great circuit, but challenging for racing. Great: Budapest: Likes the fast and flowing nature of the track. Austin: Considers it a fun track. Singapore: Thinks it's a great street circuit. Qatar: One of the most enjoyable new circuits. Monza: Fast, flowing, and good for racing. Between Solid and Great: Montreal: Its a good one Melbourne: A cool track, but changes made it worse for driving and better for racing. Solid: Barcelona: Thinks it's a good track but not great. Abu Dhabi: Considers it a solid track. Bahrain: Always nice to visit and race there. Between Meh and Solid: Las Vegas: Unable to rank due to not having seen the track layout or driven it on the simulator, but gives it the benefit of the doubt. Meh: Mexico City: Loves the fans and the city, but not the circuit itself. Baku: Great for racing, but not as exciting for driving. Red Bull Ring: Puts it in meh category, seemingly as a joke based on the name.

George really saved the best for last! 😂

Gave redbull a slap with that one George 🤣🤣 brilliant

It's impossible to look at the Vegas layout and think it's gonna be great. I'm with George, the closest to méh. But I hope we're wrong

great content, thank you team! you can tell George is a pure racer see you in Baku 💙

I love how Spa is always just an automatic top tier no matter who you ask. It’s like the most beloved track in F1 history. And for good reason who doesn’t love Spa and the weather change races we’ve had over the years, the Schumacher Hakkinen duels and the crashes. And as is unfortunately the way with motor racing we’ve had some very tragic moments there. I’ll never forget how quick Kimi used to be at Spa in his McLaren days gosh that car sounded like bliss.

George got my respect for the last one red bull just for the name 😂😂😂😂 still can't stop laughing 🤣😁😁

Hahahah what a video, smiles all around. Nice concept! Please let lewis do this as well. We need more engagement from the drivers on this channel!

Describing both Hungaroring and Monza fast and flowing is priceless 😎😅😁

3:33 even the subtitles went full British

Fair play to George for putting some tracks in the Meh column. Can we please have Lewis’?

5:32 Toto is proud of his driver

Who Is here After the Australia crash?

George was so real for that last one 💀

RED BULL RING A MEH TRACK JUST BECOS OF ITS NAME 😂😂😂

Curious George inherited Inspector Sebs title

Tell us what you really think, George!! I think we got his true opinion on all but the Red Bull circuit. Overall, a "courageous" assessment of the tracks!

Hahahhah😂 Redbull ring. That was funny.😂😂😂😂

Even though I'm a red bull fan, ranking a track as meh purely based off the name was a chad move

A lot of respect for him willing to not toe the company line when it comes to the Vegas circuit.

Fun video! Wish this was F1 channel content and that every driver on the grid would do one. Either way, rad. Hopefully we’ll get Lewis to do one.

George is fantastic at this haha- my ranking is very similar with just a few changes!

as a Saudi F1 fan, I'm glad George thinks Jeddah is a top-tier track! As a spectator, I really enjoyed it (been to all three so far), happy to know drivers enjoy it too.

George is my favourite driver😊😊😊😊

F1 should introduce grand slam GP a bit like in Tennis with Spa, Suzuka, Interlagos, Silverstone and Monza and these GP will count double the points. Would be so fun

Haha total honesty and top tier rating from George, I like that 👍

Amazing how you guys did so well in Melbourne, considering you’ve given George an old layout there…

This is great content. Drivers talking things that matter to them.

i love the way george says meh its like meeeeeee

Ahh decisions decisions. So from four oddly defined categories George manages to make it seven categories in the final analysis. That man has got Team Manager of the future (after a couple of World Championships of course) written all over him. A very Wolff and Horner like ability not to answer the question put forward, but to fill the space with something you didn’t ask for in the first place. Well done George, you’ll go far 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🤓

My own tier list: Top tier: Jeddah, Silverstone, Spielberg, Suzuka, Interlagos Great: Bahrain, Baku, Barcelona, Montreal, Hungaroring, Spa, Monza, Austin Solid: Australia, Imola, Zandvoort, Qatar, Abu Dhabi Meh: Miami, Monaco, Singapore, Mexico Unknown: Las Vegas

Lol the ranking of red bull ring based on the name made me laugh out loud 😅 Great video!

Love this!!! Please make a Lewis version. That would be great too!

Oh man that last comment about RBR was pretty funny. Good one George.

It would be interesting to have Lewis opinion too 😊

“Just for the name it’s got to go in the meh column” 😂 SAVAGE

Budapest: ‘fast and flowing…’. Fast? It’s one of the slowest tracks in the calendar. Flowing? Oh, yes. Watching Senna, Prost, Berger and the eventual winner Boutsen in action in 1990 was an absolute treat; a very eventful race. I went with my cousin and his wife to the race, situated in the grandstand overlooking the chicane at the top of the track. It was amazing to see the cars dance from corner to corner: it was graceful to behold. A wonderful - albeit very warm - day.

Great thumbnail design btw. Nice job.

lol… that finish was funny 😄

Lmao the last diss was funny af haha

correct position for RB ring, nice work george

George throwing shade to RB lmao We need a little more banter and sh*ttalking is fun!

He’s so polite and yet so savage

Totally agree with Mexico City's track, the Autodromo isn't what it used to be, really hate the new layout. And this comes from someone who lives in Mexico City, the previous layout was a lot better, especially the Peraltada, the stadium really doesn't help. Also agree with the A-1 Ring, fast, flowing, forgetful track.

The Red Bull roast was the best part! Hahahah

I really like this video of George Russell ranks the 2023 F1 tracks is a excellence thank you Mercedes.

I’m loving the George videos atm

4:24 I can no longer unsee that, thanks George

Loved the Redbull comment he made at the end!

The cheeky dig at Red Bull at the end😂

😂😂😂loved the last part. Georgeeeee

That's generally my rankings as well - which is nice to see, because I've been trying to rank these (plus many more circuits form other series) overall for personal use for years now based on how they drive in ACC, AC, rF2 and sims in general. Great to see I judged especially the new (or new-old) ones well with Imola, Zandvoort and Jeddah getting in among the best ones for me as well. (Everyone sort of knows the "old guard" top tier is like a mantra - Spa, Silverstone, Monaco, Monza, Suzuka and Interlagos, no surprises there, with Monza a bit down as it's a bit simpler layout than the others.) The ones I don't agree with are Hungaroring, Barcelona, Abu Dhabi and Bahrain. (And Red Bull Ring, but that was obviously a joke in the vid as well, otherwise it'd probably be a Great one) I drive GTs in the sims so that might influence things, but I think Hungaroring doesn't 'flow' nearly as well in a GT3 and is just frustrating, slow and simple apart from T4. Barcelona I think will surprise even F1 without the chicane when they go there later this year, and Abu Dhabi's layout changes really helped - less low-speed, more flat-out and medium-speed banked stuff - plus in a GT car, T2-3 become corners (high-speed) and the T9-10-11 braking zone is more challenging as well. Bahrain's T9-10 is also more difficult in a GT and T12 becomes a high-speed corner. All these three move up to Great in my book.

No way he said that at the end 😲

Mexico definitely needs a track reconfiguration

That "meeehhh" was wonderful

I think there is a difference between circuits to drive, vs races for the fans. Monaco for example, great test for the drives, we're lucky to see one overtake for the whole race.

The Last one 😂

George Russel the type of guy that you rank as a top tier guy.

Haha I would like to hear his actual opinion on the Red Bull Ring though. The scenery there has to be the best of the season, surely, but I don't know about the track itself.

They should get all the drivers to do this, then average the results, and then get rid of anything solid or Meh!

Thanks for the content during this long “break”

I’d watch drivers doing track tier lists all day

0:36 2021 imola vibes coming in my head bottas and russel

I agree a lot with him there. Great to see a real racer having the same racing brain as you. Here's my arrangement (very similar to his): Top: Spa, Suzuka, Imola, Interlagos, Hungaroring, Monaco, Silverstone, Monza Great: Zandvoort, Jeddah, Catalunya, Albert Park, Circuit Gilles Villeneuve, Bahrain, COTA, Red Bull Ring Solid: Yas Marina, Marina Bay, Losail Meh: Mexico, Miami, Baku, Las Vegas

I’ve driven Suzuka on the simulator it’s definitely a great track

I love zandvoort. That track probably has 90% of the hours ive put into f1 21 and 22

Not an Mercedes fan, but nice video.... george like the old skool and jeddah.... i like them to... hope spa stays on the calender...

The red bull dig was classic 😂

George, i love you for the last one

George woke up and chose violence against the Redbull ring lol

Red Bull ring is a solid circuit and George knows it.

So cool! I want this from all the drivers

george is after my heart sh*tting on vegas like that lol

1:53 Checo will remember that

😂😂😂 for the last one.. the red bull ring

‘Just for the name its got to go in the meh column.’ Everyone liked that.

I would love to see a ranking made by all the 2023 pilots, like a show where they have to agree with each other for the ranking 😂

I would like to talk to the guy that saw Vegas track layout and said "that is good enough for me"

"Red Bull Ring Just for the name it has to go in meh, doesn't it?" Dang, George chose violence

Love the idea of the video, but why could George wear a lav mic for this and the top camera is really soft. I know the content will get better tho! GJ!

Uff... George burning bridges with Red Bull. You never know the future mate. 😂

You know a team is committed to racing when the microphone in a non-race video sounds like the one they use when racing.

Best bit was when he put Austria last just because of its name.

Hi George, I think the driving experience in Baku can be improved by not pressing the brake magic button. Hope this help.

It’s nice to see a driver ratings the tracks from their own racing perspective. Some surprised me, like Baku, but playing it on the game, it isn’t the most exciting. Jeddah I would say is the most underrated track, it’s good to see the likes of Interlagos and Silverstone in the top tier. Canada was quite surprising. I’d say it’s good at least.

That last one upset people forsure but I’m all about it 😂

Amazing how he recognises the tracks from the lay outs

Man George was trying to save his job on that last one 💀💀💀
