Don't we like it when drivers have that fighting spirit?""A team of this caliber to, know, papaya rules, that seems awful sophomoric to me.""Oscar knows that. Lando knows that. McLaren know that.""If you're a McLaren or you're Oscar fan, you should be like, that's pretty, pretty, pretty good shit right there.""If Alonzo was in a McLaren now, a Ferrari now, Mercedes, he'd be in amongst it.""Ferrari's one stopper with Charles.""The drift. Yeah, he was doing some hooning out there."
