George Russell has had a tough season with Williams, spending most of his time at the back of the grid. The British driver is hoping for a better result at the F1 2019 Italian Grand Prix this weekend but is expecting more disappointment. 

"It’s good to get back racing straight away in Monza," Russell said. "The track is extremely iconic, and I have good memories there as it is a circuit I have won at the last two years.

"I think it’s going to be a tough weekend for us based on our performance in Spa. Nonetheless, we will do our best to make the most of it." 

Russell is the only driver on the grid not to have scored a championship point and he will be hoping that he can finish in the top 10 this weekend. However, it is unlikely so Russell will be doing a rain dance to try and improve his chances.
