Engineer: don't understand, but we're investigating.
Lando NORRIS: Alright, you've got to tell me two things, am I doing my race or am I trying to go forwards?
Engineer: So Lando, we think this is plan B for everyone. We want to go forwards, but the way to beat Russell will be at the end. We want better tyres than him at the end.
George RUSSELL: Well, I can't say that I'm an oriflame quake.
Engineer: I do like having to defend from them. I don't know if they can keep it. I
George RUSSELL: wish they could.
Engineer: Do you want me to de-arrest or try to overtake? Overtake him, overtake him. We're gonna go get Max.
Engineer: Poor Infomax. Lando has been told to come and get you, but he is saving turns 17, 5, 11.
Engineer: the fronts look more robust on this tyre and reminder overtake
Lando NORRIS: yeah let's just do whatever we got to do please tell me whatever i gotta do
Engineer: okay in which case just do more
Max VERSTAPPEN: Well done, really good execution, you managed that really, really well, so I'm very happy. Well done guys, well done everyone.
Engineer: Yeah, George, congratulations to the podium. Really, really good. I agree with you. Probably those two laps with Verstappen, that's what did the damage. But a podium is a podium.
George RUSSELL: Exactly. Didn't change the result. Then we had to try.
