Still, a bit late in the day Nico… well done on 2nd, but you’re in the shadow of champions…

7.8 second gap in the end. The dirty air must’ve been very powerful around Interlagos.

Senna-esque drive from Nico.
As for Williams, they can count their lucky stars there isnt alot more of high downforce tracks like Sao Paulo, Monaco and Singapore. Terrible pace.

In terms of Sainz not really starting, he was towed backwards up the pit lane before the race started – has this ever happened before? It seemed very odd

That was a much better performance, Nico.
