Sergey Sirotkin says that he is preparing for his maiden season in Formula 1 in the best possible way. The 22-year-old will become the third F1 driver from Russia when he takes to the track in Melbourne next month.

Sirotkin came into contention for the Williams seat late on into 2017, and took part in a post-season test with the team. In January, Williams confirmed Sirotkin as Lance Stroll's teammate for the upcoming season, and he says that he's been working hard in preparation.

"I feel really excited ahead of the season. I’ve spent a lot of time at the factory, I’m almost living there at the moment which has been great motivation for me and for all of the people around the factory. It’s been a big enjoyment to start working properly with all the mechanics and engineers, and it’s going well.

"I’ve been training hard and I’ve been in the simulator regularly, going through different set-ups with the car, different tracks, seat fittings and also a lot of engineering meetings and factory tours to meet everyone. I’ve been having fun with all the guys from different departments. It’s busy times, but I am really enjoying it. I’m getting ready for the season in the best possible way."
