"Obviously, Oscar made some statements while he was in the car," Stella said. "But that's the kind of character that we want to have from our drivers -- they have to make their position very clear. That's what we ask them.
"At the same time, we have to put things in perspective: the perspective of a driver that is in a Formula 1 car with the intensity of it being the first lap. And the perspective that obviously just saw Lando moving on to him, but we know that Lando, in realty, had a contact with Verstappen and oversteered on to Oscar. So we will have good reviews, good conversations."

"In terms of the contact between our two drivers, this contact is, in reality, a consequence of another racing situation that happened between Lando and Verstappen," Stella said. "So definitely, because there was a contact in itself, this will lead to a review and some good conversations. But in the moment, we thought that this contact was more a result of another racing situation, let's say.
"We will see if there's any learning and anything that we need to fine tune in terms of our approach, but I think this will just lead to some good conversations.

"Every time we start our conversations with the drivers, we always remind ourselves, as a premise, this is hard," he said. "Because this is the only matter in which, when you race together as a team, you can't have exactly the same interest for the two drivers, because they want to pursue their aspiration, and this is a foundational principle of the way we are racing at McLaren.
"We want to protect this 'let them race' concept. We know that as soon as you adopt this concept, you face difficulties, and we remind ourselves, but it's within this awareness, self-consciousness, in a way, that then we develop our conversation.

"You need to be thorough, and you need to have integrity in approaching that, and I'm very proud of the way Lando and Oscar have been part of the process so far, because if we have been able to navigate through these, let's say, difficult factors, it's because we have Lando and Oscar involved. They've been just great individuals, great contributors, and that's why it's been successful so far, and definitely we will work hard to make sure this is true for the remainder of the season, and the years ahead, in which we will keep on racing with Lando and Oscar.

watching them break down telemetry for the pole lap with the driver on the bathurst broadcast and wondering why sky sports seem to think people would rather watch ted kravitz have an ice bath

yeah, it happens a lot with design stuff because a lot of non-design folks just have zero ability to estimate how long this stuff realistically takes. and like i'm pretty efficient but sometimes i still end up having to explain that they've assigned a month's worth of work to 3 days of time 😅

Formula 1 ace Charles Leclerc on speed, stillness and his love of music

The Ferrari driver trades high speeds for the calm of his Steinway, and, as ambassador for Chivas Regal, marked the launch of its latest spirit against the backdrop of the Singapore GP.
