No George, lean in the middle sector was about fuel saving…

Clever. Sorry to be technical, but George was weighed after draining out all fuel. So fuel saving wouldn’t have saved George from the disqualification

Middle management didn’t have all the answers, but they were able to offer a sticking-plaster solution.

Or:
Sunday morning in Spa: “Hey George, CrowdStrike just released a new patch. Works 100%.”

Doesn’t George know that ABS are illegal in an F1 car?
