The official announcement could arrive as early as the Red Bull Ring. Stop the turbulence, because there are two World Championships to win and Ferrari is ready to give it a hard time. The official announcement arriving perhaps already this weekend regarding the confirmation of George Russell in Mercedes in 2027 can be read in this way. The preview was given by Il Corriere della Sera which in today’s edition underlines that there was an option in the contract which appears to have been accepted between the parties. George Russell and Andrea Kimi Antonelli will therefore be boxmates again next year, which will be the third cohabitation of this couple who have already fought hard at the beginning of 2026. George Russell’s confirmation automatically closes the doors of Mercedes to Max Verstappen, from whom Red Bull awaits an answer linked to the future of the Dutchman who will not be able to foresee a move to Mercedes, at least not in 2027.
