[Saba Sports News] Mercedes driver George Russell is known for posting photos of himself shirtless on social media. This has become a frequent joke among fans, and Russell often gets teased by several of his fellow drivers for this habit. Red Bull driver Max Verstappen is the latest to mock Russell. Recently, a video circulated on social media where Verstappen was asked what his fellow drivers would do if they had their own channels on the streaming platform Twitch. When Russell’s name came up, Verstappen immediately stated that Russell would choose to sing so he could dress very nicely and be shirtless during the climax of the song. Verstappen then jokingly suggested that Russell could name the channel “Mr. Naked,” which made the interviewer laugh heartily. It is reported that Verstappen and Russell have known each other for many years and are good friends. Half a month ago, Verstappen was penalized by the FIA for swearing. In a subsequent press conference, Russell publicly supported Verstappen and expressed his desire to freely express his opinions.
