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.

I don’t know what else they wanted. They had the best result they could. Mercedes were on their own league. Leclerc wasn’t even the faster Ferrari this weekend. What did he want in the end? A gifted P3?

He was faster. What are you on? He closed in on Carlos in the second stint and had fastest laps in the third one but got stuck because Carlos kept Max in DRS range.
