In a bold departure from the high-speed precision of Formula One, Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS drivers George Russell and Kimi Antonelli trade tarmac for terrain in a dramatic new film shot ahead of the British Grand Prix at Silverstone. Behind the wheel of the INEOS Grenadier and Quartermaster 4X4s, the elite racers unleash a different kind of power—one built not for the racetrack, but for raw, untamed wilderness.

The film opens with the drivers on a polished promo shoot for INEOS Automotive, a principal partner of the Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS Formula One Team since 2020. But when the cameras pause, instinct takes over. Russell and Antonelli seize the moment, slipping away to put the formidable 4X4s to a real test—one that’s loud, dirty, and off-script.

With engines roaring and tires clawing through rocky trails, muddy ravines, and open sand, the pristine Grenadier and Quartermaster are quickly baptised in grit. A drone tries—and fails—to track them as they vanish into the landscape, embracing the vehicles’ purpose-built toughness and unrelenting capability.

The Grenadier, engineered from scratch to conquer the harshest terrain, and the Quartermaster, its dual-cab, load-hauling sibling, are shown not just as vehicles, but as instruments of escape, engineered for those who live to defy limits.
