I'm actually flying with Max today, so...
Oh, really?
I get another step again.
Another step in the private.
I don't think Max will be very happy today after the penalty he got, but...
I have not paid any attention.
Second.
How did he lose first?
He got a five-second time penalty for, well, the stewards said,
leaving the track and gaining an advantage of what happened with Oscar in Turn 1.
Good flight, anyways.
I'll go to bed then.
I'll sleep on that plane.
So we got a good chance today.
It's nice being up on the podium.
Teamwork written down for Williams.
Both drivers today.
Has that been the key to getting you into the points and keeping hold of them
with Hadjar closing you down?
Maybe.
Honestly, we had a really strong pace.
I think we played it safe to make sure that we created a DRS train
to make sure that Isaac didn't overtake us.
If we got left alone, I think Carlos and I had a bit better pace than what it showed there.
We talked about this strategy.
It got brought up in the strategy meeting.
I actually won with Pierre because Pierre was going to have good race pace today.
But then, obviously, Isaac took his place and we did the same thing.
So I'm very happy.
Do you feel like this is the maximum Williams could have got out of this weekend?
I know you're a bit frustrated after qualifying,
but have you taken all the opportunities that were out there?
Yes.
I think so.
I think P8, P9 is kind of what we were hoping for.
Maybe P9, P10.
But obviously, with Yuki having his crash, that was the best of the rest for us.
After yesterday, it looked a bit bleak, let's say.
But the team did a great job.
