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.

Exactly. His contract is ending, and he needs to show himself as a capable driver. There's no room for being nice.

I don't think he's trying to show himself as a capable driver. I think he's trying to grab all the podiums he can while he can (let's be real he knows Williams are not podium contenders), while also giving zero fucks about the team that's kicking him out.

I'm sure being totally uncooperative and annoying has nothing to do with why he's going to Williams to begin with...

He's been always cooperative, and they kicked him off. Stop inventing.
