Gianpiero Lambiase hurriedly said goodbye to Max Verstappen over team radio at the end of the United States Grand Prix...
Max Verstappen wins his 50th F1 Grand Prix, celebrating on the podium at the Circuit of the Americas.
The three-time World Champion had had to work hard for the win, starting from sixth on the grid, and had complained vociferously about how his brakes weren’t working to his liking during the course of the race as he attempted to stay ahead of Lando Norris and, later, Lewis Hamilton.Verstappen and Lambiase are well known for their radio exchanges, with the race engineer well capable of standing up to the Dutch driver’s infamous temper.
With Hamilton closing down the gap in the closing stages, and the pressure mounting on Verstappen, Lambiase tried to keep his driver informed by saying: “Same pace as Hamilton.” Asked about the strange nature of Lambiase disappearing as soon as the chequered flag was shown, with the race engineer and his driver not seeing each other again until practice for the Mexico City Grand Prix next week, Red Bull team boss Christian Horner explained what was going on.“So the marital bliss between the two of them just rolls along!“It used to be Helmut who left the track early, now it’s the race engineer who’s straight out after the race.
