Whoa, big moment, Jack Dewan. Bit of confusion there.
I've always had the biggest accident of my life. Oh, my God, man.
All right. Dewan was too late. I'm sorry.
That's it, Carlos, just sitting in the middle of the road. Nothing's changed, I see.
Starting this second flyer and it just snaps suddenly.
Oh, it's just a bump. It's a bump and a whack.
Are you OK? I'm OK. It just gave me a massive snap.
Right here, the bump, I think.
Is he OK? Yeah, he said he's OK at the radio, so all OK.
That looks really bad. It sounds like he is OK.
Who is that, Charles or Carlos? Carlos. Carlos in the wall.
There we go. So innocuous. It interrupts our session again.
It ends the German driver's session. I lost the exit of turn one.
Are you OK? Sure.
Double yellow ahead. One, two, one, two.
What's going on today?
There's yellows turn one, double yellows. This could go red again. Red flag.
This is good, isn't it?
And this is Max trying to find a gap.
Yeah, I'm getting blocked. Copy that.
Southampton's just crossed another line to pass.
I'm going to lose another minute here, Morris.
I don't know, Ricky. I cannot do anything in the pit exit.
I guess this is an unnecessary slow.
This is what was agreed by us, sadly.
One of our winners this year finds himself out in the first part of qualifying.
So much traffic.
Yeah, check. I just improved my RP16.
Yeah, I'm surprised.
So much traffic. I think people did it on purpose.
Out in Q2 once again.
Hamilton finding himself in 11th.
There's something not right with this car.
OK, copy that. Yeah, we're starting everything.
Oh, he's very nearly dropped it.
Lando Norris might well have opened the door for the front row to his teammates.
Yeah, you don't need to say anything.
May as well not turn up on Saturdays.
Verstappen comes over the line.
He doesn't improve his time, but he's got pole position.
I reckon you owe this beatbox an apology, mate.
It's P1.
Sometimes you can make it better, you know.
I think that's what we did, so well done. Great job.
Yeah, well done, mate. You've just won me €500 off Helmut,
which is like getting blood out of a stone.
So, yeah, fantastic job.
Helmut lost a bet. What world are we living in?
Exactly. The bet was for you to be on the front row, mate.
Nice.
Come on, baby.
That was a tough quali.
Good job, Charles. Well done.
Thank you.
Good, Joky. P6.
What? It's not P7?
P6. It was a lap cancelled.
Oh, nice. Well done, guys.
Best qualifying of the year, I think.
Thank you. Thank you, guys.
Well done. P8, Nico. P8.
Nice job, Mr. Quali.
Thanks, Gareth. Solid job, guys.
Nice to finish with a strong quali.
Thank you.
Into the pits or stay out?
Into the pits, please, Max. Into the pits.
In, in, in, in, in, in, in, in. Stay out.
Daniel and I have a little romance going on here at the pit exit.
Sorry, Max.
Daniel is waving at me and making a heart sign.
Thanks, France, for the last three years
at all of the airports.
Advice has to be, let's do this.
A nice little message for France Tost,
who is coming to the end of his team-principalling career.
There's been contact. Was that on the...
As we joined them, they looked like they were glued together.
They literally were touching.
I've just damaged my front wing.
He looks up ahead of me.
Yeah, that's all on Hamilton there.
Gasly's on the racing line.
Hamilton just pushed me, hit me.
I don't get how you can undercut me with the other car.
The leading car, I seriously don't understand.
You'll have to explain me, because...
So Esteban is 4.1 ahead.
So we'll just focus on tyre management.
It's a long way to go. We can make this work.
We have the slowest car on this track, by far.
Ooh, that's reminiscent of some messages from yesteryear.
So Alonso's on an outlap here.
He's been... Yeah, here we go.
So they were side by side coming through.
Then Hamilton, I think, has come past.
Yeah, they just brake tested me.
I got brake tested, like, way before the braking zone.
How is Lewis getting on?
Yeah, he's doing a good job at the moment.
Having a fight of his own.
What does that mean?
How are we doing in the championship? Are we good?
All we can do is the best race that we can do.
We're fine at the moment.
Oh, this is a race, OK?
I'm a bit lost.
Try to go as long as possible, waiting for a safety car.
Plan L for luck now for Ferrari.
Perez is looking to the inside.
Can he get it done?
Norris trying to stay there.
They make contact!
He just crashed into me.
He just turned into me.
Yeah, we saw.
Yeah, but that's just dangerous driving.
You'd lose the space.
Yeah, let me know how much is the gap between Perez and Russell.
So maybe we can make them tighter before.
If we see that we are not second in the constructors.
Understood.
Tell me the gap between Checo and Russell.
If there's less than five seconds, I'll give him the slipstream.
Then I'll let him pass for the last sector.
He's got five seconds anyway.
He's through. Perez has gone through.
So Leclerc has allowed the Red Bull through
and has got to stay within five seconds to take P2.
Unbelievable stuff there.
For the final time, Max Verstappen wins 19 Grand Prix in a single season.
All missions complete.
What a year.
What a preparation.
Wow, another race, guys.
Lovely.
And we did it, GP.
Mission A.
Max, you have been absolutely mighty this year.
We're all incredibly, incredibly proud of you.
And it's a very, very special in-lap.
So take it in, enjoy every moment and enjoy this last bit of RB19.
What an unbelievable year.
I just want to say thank you to everyone.
I just want to say thank you to Franz Storst.
He had a lot of us under his wings and this was his last race.
Motor slow, charge button off.
Yeah, I don't care about motor slow. Where are we for sixes?
P3.
If I do some burnouts, OK?
No burnouts, please. No burnouts to the grid.
Not even this.
Did we do it?
Yeah, good job, mate.
Well done.
Well done, everybody.
It's been a very tough season, but really, really happy to finish it off as we did.
Yeah, good job, mate. Well done.
We've had some highs and some lows, but we'll move on to next year.
Oh, yeah.
Thank you very much, everyone, for the first year together.
I enjoyed it a lot and a couple of very big highlights.
I'm sure there's many more to come.
So thank you very much for an amazing first season.
All right. Thank you, everyone.
Thank you, France, as well.
Enjoy some time on the beach.
Go get next year.
Ciao for now.
