There is a lot going on around George Russell in Formula 1 at the moment. Last weekend he finished second after a great qualifying session. For weeks now Russell has been linked with the second seat of Mercedes next to Lewis Hamilton.

On his Instagram a few hours ago, Hamilton posted a photo of him and his dog Roscoe on the couch. Fans immediately noticed that Hamilton didn't tag his dog's Instagram account, but instead tagged Russell's account.

A few minutes later, Hamilton changed the tag to the correct account, but has since deleted the photo. With all the rumors surrounding the Mercedes seat, fans can laugh about it: "That's one way to confirm Russell for the seat in 2022!", the comments said.
