Beste teamradio: Ferrari’s controversiële teamorders in Sochi

We hebben de boordradioberichten tijdens de Grand Prix van Rusland bij de Ferrari-mannen onder elkaar gezet, tot het moment waarop Vettel moest opgeven met een motorisch probleem.

Niet lang na de positiewisseling bij de start krijgt Leclerc te horen: “Sebastian will let you by next lap.”

Vettel: “I would have got him anyways, but let’s break away for another two laps. Let me know.”

Vettel krijgt te horen: “Let Charles by.”

Vettel: “Well, tell him to close up.”

Leclerc: "You put me behind, I respected everything... We'll speak later, but now it’s difficult to close the gap, obviously."

Vettel krijgt te horen: “He's trying to close the gap, let him by, he's 1.4 behind.”

Vettel krijgt te horen: “We are looking to Plan C, Charles 1.9 behind.”

Vettel krijgt te horen: “You are the fastest car on track, head down, you're doing well.”

Leclerc krijgt te horen: “Charles, we will do the swap a bit later on, Lewis is a bit close, and we want to push now, we will do it later, just focus on your race, thank you.”

Leclerc: “I completely understand, the only thing is that I respected, I gave you the slipstream no problems, but then I tried to push at the beginning of the race, but I overheated the tyres. Anyway, it's no problems... manage the situation.”

Leclerc krijgt voor zijn pitstop te horen: “And you can push now.”

Vettel: “My rears are falling off now.”

Vettel krijgt te horen: “We worry about Hamilton going long, Hamilton laptime [1m3]8.8[s].”

Leclerc krijgt tijdens Vettel’s in-lap te horen: “And we need you to push.”

Vettel in de problemen: “I've got no [MGU-]K.”

Vettel krijgt te horen: “Stop the car.”

Vettel: “Are you serious? Bring back those f**king V12s.”
