![Martinle Brundle: “One thing that really worried me was Lando Norris saying, ‘I didn’t want to overtake Lewis Hamilton, but my battery decided it did, and then I had nothing to defend with’.

Lando’s radio during the safety car: Lando: “What are we doing?” Will: “We’re staying out.” Lando: “Is everyone boxed?” Will: “Almost everyone, yeah.” Lando: “We should’ve just followed him in, no? If we knew the car was ahead staying out. (?)” Will: “They have lost all their flexibility for remainder of the race.” Oscar’s radio during the safety car: Oscar: “Are we boxing or staying out?” Tom: “Stand by… Oscar, we are staying out. Stay out.” Oscar: “Copy, staying out.” Tom: “So Oscar, here’s the picture. Yourself, Lando, and Ocon stayed out. Everyone else has taken it. Pitting on that lap means we know exactly when they have to pit on the next stop.” Oscar: “Copy.” Now, spot the differences.

George: “Formula 1 is bigger than any driver. So, you know, you wouldn't want to lose Max because I think we all enjoy racing against Max. And it's just part and parcel of Formula 1. I didn't enjoy driving the 22 car when it was porpoising up and down, killing everybody's backs. The car was big, it was heavy, the high speed corners, it wasn't very pleasant to drive around. But he didn't have the same complaint because he was winning. Now, the complaints that he has currently are different to the complaints of Mercedes, Ferrari and McLaren because we're at the front end of the grid. And this is only natural, and you do understand and recognise the frustration but he's achieved what most drivers dream of which is winning a championship. He's got 4 of them. And at the end of the day, I guess you get to a point in life that you want- there's not really much more for him to achieve in Formula 1. You know, he's ticked all the boxes, maybe he can go after the records, but knowing him as I do and knowing drivers who have won or achieved similar things; at one point, you want to do what puts a smile on your face. And if driving the Nordschleife- I can totally understand why driving the Nordschleife puts a smile on his face. You know, I've driven hundreds of laps around the Nordschleife on the simulator. And I would love to have that chance to go and race around the Nordschleife. But my goal now is to become a Formula 1 world champion. If I have 4 of them under my belt, I'd probably be doing the same. So, you know, he's in a very different stage of his career. And yeah, I think you'd understand if he stayed and you'd understand if he weren't."

![“Oscar Pastri was speechless, left speechless after that one and ironically the fact that he finished second and Lando finished in fourth, it's actually disadvantage Oscar going into the final race in Abu Dhabi. What do you do now? Papaya rules, you know, you've got - Max is now 12 points behind, Oscar's 16 points behind, Lando needs to finish on the podium. Do you now have to change away from this? Andrea Stella: “First of all we understand Oscar being extremely disappointed, because like I said at the start, he has done everything right. He's been fast, he's been solid, he's been consistent, likewise Lando. So the drivers deserved to capitalize on their great performance. In terms of adapting the way we go racing, we just want to always keep the options open for both drivers. They both in condition to win the championship. There's been often in the history of Formula 1, a situation in which it was the third one, the third in the classification to actually win the championship.

Will Buxton: “The guys at McLaren are telling me that they feel like they've got the old Lando back. Last year he had to be very channeled, very focused, very kind of take himself out of himself a little bit. But now that he's proven he can win the world championship, doing it his way, and racing the way that he likes to race, that weight has kind of been alleviated. It's lifted from him and the old Lando is sort of back and they're absolutely loving that.”

🗣️: “How do you like the old track here, the traditional track, and would you like to have it back in the calendar?” George: “I've really enjoyed driving this morning. I really love the Nürburgring. I've done a few laps of the Nordschleife as well. I really, really love that. It truly is a traditional, old-school circuit. Yeah, you know, I'd love to be back racing here one day, and of course, we have no race in Germany at the moment, and with Mercedes, it would probably be nice to have one back on the calendar.“

Zak Brown: “Couldn't dream of having a better driver lineup on and off the track. Two fastest guys in the world and nicest. That's the McLaren way. Proper racers like us, which stands for how we race. You guys are almost a unicorn combo. Then again, maybe we'll be up here next year saying, ‘fuck that guy.’ Anyways. Won't come to that. Both drivers love me, idolize me, call me big daddy behind my back. Reality is they'll mess with me, but they won't mess with Andrea ‘cause deep down inside they're scared shitless of Andrea.”

McLaren's Chief Designer Rob Marshall explains the new MCL40 design: “It's all new car, front to back. New regulations. As people have touched upon, the car's a bit shorter. It's actually quite a lot shorter than previous cars, a lot lighter, coupled with a brand new power unit, 50-50 hybrid, and a new set of air regulations designed to try and reduce the size of the weight behind the car, make overtaking a bit easier. If you start from the front, the new front wing is still sort of arrowhead like the previous generation, but it's a bit lower and have a much broader and wider footplate, end plate, than we used to have. And also the front wing is now actuated much like the old DRS. These new cars have got a straight line mode where both the front and rear wings will move their flaps to reduce the drag on the car and help the car get down the straights faster. There's quite a lot of freedom in how you actuate that. I think we'll see different solutions from different cars on the grid. Moving a bit further back, you've got the crash structure, which is basically from here to here. That's all new again. The regulations have changed this year where we need to make sure that after a small shunt that's enough to knock the front wing off, maybe the front half of the nose, the remaining part still serves its function as saving the driver in a secondary crash against another barrier. So that's significantly complicated the design work going into the nose. And then we've got front suspension - again, last year's front suspension was I think very innovative and so is this. We've done quite a few changes which I hope benefit us. And as we go rearward and we've got the main body of the chassis. Again, all new regulations, much tougher homologation requirements. So the crash tests and the squeezes that go into the chassis are quite brutal this year. And a lot of effort and research has gone in to try and make the car able to withstand those. Also, as I touched upon, the car is so much shorter. So a lot of the packaging of where radiators and electrical boxes, which were typically scattered around the car, finding homes for those has been very difficult. There's just less space to put them all. What's helped us there is the fuel tank is a bit smaller. We're going to use less fuel in the race. From an aerodynamic point of view, in this region here, gone are the very curved underfloors that we had with last year's cars. We're replaced with a much more flat bottom car like we had in previous generations. And then as we go rearward again, our rear suspension is actually a bit of an iteration of last year's. We're very happy with what we did last year, and so we just built upon that. Redesigned the gearbox to make it lighter and shorter for the obvious reasons. And then the rear wing is similar-ish to last year's, and the actuation mechanism is a bit like old-school DRS, but it's now mounted on two pylons, and yeah, it will now operate in conjunction with the front wing, as I said.”

“Take me inside that helmet those last few laps.” Lando: “It was fairly relaxed last few laps. I was just trying to stay away from all the curbs, not do anything silly. Honestly our car gets more difficult to drive when you try to back off more. I almost had more problems when I tried to relax a little bit. Similar to my - to the first win I had. Very quiet laps. I don’t even think Will said this was the last lap. I think he knew I knew what it was. You just kind of have that little fast run back of the journey. Like you see in movies and things like that, like it’s genuine. There’s pictures of me, my ever first time in a go kart, that first day where I look like an absolute rookie, zero style, no idea what I was doing. I remember my dad taking us to karting, both my brother and myself. The car blowing up on the way there, because we couldn’t get up the hill on the way to the track. Just those, you know, real memories of where it started and all the way to where I am now.” #AbuDhabiGP

Lando: “I'm the most happy I’ve ever been. I don't know what I meant to say honestly. A lot goes into a season like this. Yeah, I mean today, you know, P3 is all I needed to do. Of course, I would've loved to be a little better but I was happy with that and yeah, it’s never a straightforward race. You know, there’s a lot of stuff plays on your mind into a race like that today. Especially when I’m up against two of the other best drivers in the world. You always expect the worst. But today was a fairly smooth day. I achieved my little dream. My little dream from many many years ago. A dream that I shared with my parents, my whole family - they all supported me since I was a kid. It’s always hard to imagine.What year is it gonna be? What you have to do? But now I know. Which is a pretty incredible feeling. So, I’m pretty happy.” #AbuDhabiGP

![🗣️: “The car that is performing at the moment is maybe the Mercedes. Just thinking about your championship, you really came out and stamped your authority at Brawn. I was talking to Nigel Mansell the other day. He was saying, well, that's what I did in 1992. It's kind of what George Russell wants to do. How concerned will he be that Kimmi has won the last two?” Jenson Button: “I actually saw George a couple of days ago, just in passing, weirdly. He seems very calm, collected. You know, it won't phase George. He knows his speed and he knows it hasn't gone his way. He's been very unlucky, but you got to take the rough with the smooth and you understand that sometimes you do get unlucky. Next race, he might not be. He might get the luck. So, who knows? But, yeah, for me, it's an exciting championship to have those two fighting out. Such a youngster. You know, Kimi's so young. George, he's a real powerhouse, I have to say. You know, I'm a big fan of George. [..]”](https://image.24vids.com/tw-2045931192269017556/amplify_video_thumb/2045931092146802688/img/D01VZ7WKuTDiI_5T.jpg)

“When you then went to hug your mom and dad, it must have been an incredible emotion. It must have leveled up in a big way.” Lando: “Yeah. I mean I think by then I ran out of tears 'cause I did the whole in lap, like crying a bit, took my helmet off. I think I ran out a little bit and then when I hugged my mom, she was the first person I went to was my mom and my dad. I wouldn't be here. It's quite simple. I wouldn't be here without them. I wouldn't get to have - wouldn't have had the chance to live my dream to live an incredible life that I have. I'm such a lucky person. I know I am. And I think that's also why I understand that. I understand what a lucky person I am to have been given that opportunity to get to enjoy my life since such a young age, karting, traveling the world, doing what I do. I get to now say thank you in the biggest way possible. And I also just get to give back and it's so hard to do that. When you're in my position ‘cause you always feel like you're taking and everyone's behind you and you're the star. But I really - I don't like that aspect of it. I only like the fact that I get to come in and see everyone so happy. That's the craziest feeling in the world is knowing you can have such a big impact on everyone. And yeah, I mean to see my mom's crying. And my dad, you know, that just shows how much it means to them, how much it means to me that I get to say thank you in that kind of way.”
