The two pilots of the Red have exchanged the positions complaining to each other. The British: “Take a tea while you think what to do …”
Radio controversy in the Ferrari house in Miami. Returning to the track after the first stop in eighth and ninth position, Leclerc and Hamilton soon found themselves fighting after getting rid of Carlos Sainz’s Williams. The English, faster of the partner and intent on exploiting the (media) gum of advantage over Charles, immediately opens via radio: “Do you want me to be here the whole race?”. “Stay in the DRS area with Leclerc”, he replies his engineer Riccardo Adami via radio. But Hamilton is not there: “I will only say one thing, this is not a good team work”. Time two passages behind Ferrari Number 16 and Lewis returns to the attack via radio: “In China we reversed the machines …”, insists remembering when Shanghai had let Leclerc pass in the race. And again: “Take a tea while you think about it!”.

After a long pull and spring via radio comes the order of Scuderia: “We will change the positions in curve 17”. Once the exchange, Leclerc replies via radio: “Tell Lewis to go faster, now I’m in the dirty air, I didn’t know Sainz was so close!”. The two launch Antonelli into pursuit, sixth, but in the meantime the Monegasque quickly recovers the gap on his partner. This is how the counter-order arrives: “I’m overheating the tires!”, Leclerc venerates via radio, “let’s change the position again”, replicate from the box. And Lewis goes down, not without controversy: “Sainz is to a second from you”, he warns him of me. “Do you want him to let him pass too?”, He replies English.
