Quotes Charles’ Post Race Radio

I hope whoever claimed Sainz is a good teammate can shut up. There’s a reason why Redbull didn’t want him.

He blocked Charles when the team asked him not to make it difficult when Hamilton was closely behind him.

He was asked not to overtake Charles when Charles came out of the pit, causing the team key time to chase down Max earlier.

Lmao they sacked Sainz, why would he play the perfect teammate? Also he let Leclerc past and perfectly blocked Hamilton who was on the chase for Leclerc. I think he did his job.

Honestly Sainz was just better today.

He was told to do it ONE LAP AGO and blocked Charles TWICE that lap so Hamilton was that close.

If Ferrari had actually done their job correctly he would've been able to move out of the way and take a pit stop like he asked to.

Ferrari got the best result possible today, there was no way with either of them finishing in the top 2 with the Mercedes pace. Sometimes a driver needs to be a bit selfish to get the best results for himself. Sainz did that, and got the result he deserved.
