Canadian Grand Prix 2026: Sprint team radio
13 radio messages were recorded during sprint at the Canadian Grand Prix 2026, across 6 drivers. 11 of them have a transcript; the rest are audio only. Kimi ANTONELLI had the most, with 6.
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, and the original audio is playable in the archive.

Engineer: Lando, if you can fit them in, there would be two burnouts before the launch. It would be a static bike point fine.
Isack HADJAR: Ah, engine problem.
Engineer: Oh f**k. Ok, we're investigating.
Kimi ANTONELLI: Don't worry about it
Max VERSTAPPEN: I cannot save it. I wear it. It's holding like crazy.
Kimi ANTONELLI: Let's give young men an idea who's alongside the hero. So
Engineer: let's just keep it cool.
Engineer: Let's just get his back up to control, Gibby. Focus on Norris, focus on the driving. Yeah, I don't care, he pulled me out!
Engineer: Can we concentrate on the driving, please, and not on the radio morning?
Engineer: We're not seeing anything on aero, so it looks to be behaving, just vibration.
George RUSSELL: That's how you do it. It's just a bit of growth.
Engineer: Nice work, babe. Good
George RUSSELL: job. That was quick there. Yeah, good job.
Engineer: Kimi, let's check the flag. Yeah, if we need to race like this, then good enough. Kimi, now is the first time to talk about this. We talk about this internally and not on the radio, okay?
