39 radio messages were recorded during sprint at the São Paulo Grand Prix 2024, across 13 drivers. 37 of them have a transcript; the rest are audio only. Oscar PIASTRI had the most, with 7.

These are transcripts of real team radio audio, produced by speech recognition and presented as an archive rather than as edited prose. Radio is clipped and noisy, so wording can be imperfect. Each message is attributed to the driver or their engineer.
