Brazilian GP: Best of team radio

Bottas after claiming pole in qualifying

Team: “And that’s pole, good effort.”
Bottas: “Yeah! Yes!”

Another issue for Raikkonen on the starting grid

Team: “OK Kimi I’ll go through the normal stuff in a second but just to bring you up to speed where we are, the reason why all the fuss earlier was we saw an issue with the telemetry signal being a bit weak so we’re worried we might lose telemetry in the race. We did then have problems connecting to the car but that seems to have resolved itself. So the only thing to remind you of in the event we do have a problem with telemetry is to look after your fuel. You’ve got your display, you know how to use it.”
