00:00With the safety car restart, or the rolling start, did Lando Lock-Norris, and he's left it a bit late today as well,
00:06but it's perfect timing for him as he gets the jump, and away he goes, and Kimi Antonelli is being swapped by other cars,
00:13and on the inside, Piastri locks up, goes red, and he makes contact with Antonelli, and that then forces Antonelli into Charles Leclerc,
00:21Piastri is in second place, he emerges ahead of the Mercedes and the Ferrari, that is Charles Leclerc's race run,
00:29and Lewis Hamilton struggling in the back, what a wretched start for Ferrari, and what are the stewards going to say about this,
00:34they were three abreast, going into turn one, now comes the lock-up, now it's tyre to tyre, so you wouldn't imagine damage on Piastri,
00:43and, well, Charles Leclerc, just the innocent bystander there, and his race over.
00:50Yeah, they'll be looking to see, so basically Lando floored it, and it caught Antonelli slightly off guard,
00:56that left him under a lot of attack, Piastri will say, he didn't give me any space, I was up the inside,
01:02but he did lock up, he didn't keep full control of his car, that's what the stewards will be looking at,
01:07but we'll worry, let them worry about that, so Charles then, minding his own business,
01:13right around the outside, that's just horrible misfortune.
01:17A second DNF, and the last seven Grand Prix, for Charles Leclerc, Zandvoort and Sao Paolo,
01:23this is on board with Oscar Piastri, yeah, there wasn't space there.
01:29They make the McLaren suspension stronger.
01:31Yeah, let me know, space.
01:32Yeah, that's what he's obliged to say, let's not forget to notice that Max Verstappen up to P13 already now.
01:43Yeah, we're aided by overtakes and retirements too.
01:48Hey, I'm going to crash out here, I'll keep time, car's crazy unsabled.
01:52Another overtake there, Oscar Piastri's coming into the pits, Hamilton is going to retire.
02:09Box to retire the car, Lewis Hamilton has served his five-second tie-in penalty.
02:14There's Alex Albon on the inside of Franco Colopinto, another overtake there.
02:20Oscar Piastri's coming into the pits, Hamilton is going to retire from this Sao Paolo Grand Prix,
02:28and it's the first time at Interlagos since 2012 that he's retired.
02:32So no one can now stop and touch the car.
02:35Blow some cold air at it, obviously.
02:37But you can't touch it for ten seconds.
02:40Now you can get going when someone shouts go, that person will have a stopwatch,
02:44and it is soft tyres for Oscar Piastri.
02:47Now, that's a surprise.
02:49They obviously feel the hard, just not the tie at four to that.
02:52Back at the incident, Oscar took the penalty.
02:55Do you understand in the championship position he's in why he made such an aggressive move?
03:03Oscar was optimistic,
03:05but Kimi knew that Oscar was on the inside, I think.
03:11And he kind of did the corner like Oscar was never there.
03:15And for me, the blame is not all on Oscar.
03:21Yes, it was optimistic, but this call has been avoided.
03:25And it's, yeah, I'm frustrated.
03:28At the end of the day, I'm not angry with any of Oscar or Kimi.
03:33These things happen, but I wouldn't go as far as saying that it's all Oscar's fault.
03:39I don't think it is.
03:40I've been living it for a while, so...
03:42The flip between the dream of driving for this amazing team,
03:49and then the nightmare of results that we've had, the ups and downs,
03:53it's, it's, it's challenging, but we, we, tomorrow I'll get back up,
04:01I'll keep, keep training, I'll keep working with the, with the team,
04:04and I really wanted to get them good points this weekend,
04:08but I'll, I'll come back as hard, as strong as I can in the next race
04:10and try to recover it.
