As well as it being a personal matter, drivers could even feel that rivals may get an advantage if broadcasts show that their heart rate is at an elevated level.

Laurie said that, with teams seeking advantage in anything they can find, analysing a rival’s heart rate data could be used to help encourage a team’s own driver to push them even harder.

Q: Now, there were a few anxious radio calls during the race from you. You said at one point ‘the cars pulling, it's a bit weird’. That was one of them. And you also didn't like the Soft tyre. Were any of these serious issues?

MV: No, they were not serious, but I like to report these things to the team. The wind was very, very bad. At one point, it was really unpredictable. So that's what I reported. LH: Did you put the 'F' in front of any of the words? MV: No? No, actually not this time.

LH: You know he’s serious when he puts the ‘F’ in front of it. Have you seen your videos?

MV: That was 2020! That was a great year. Yeah, that was a good one.

the entire red bull industrial complex is in flames, one driver sacked in brutal and unceremonious fashion, friendly team pr clown rewarded for a fast testing lap with a full time wheelbarrow drive, liam lawson still in exile in japan, sergio perez on course to be invited into helmut marko's office for a nice game of russian roulette next time he misses q3, five hundred teenagers in red bull liveries beating each other up hunger games career tribute style in the feeder system every other week for an 0.001% chance of ever seeing inside the cockpit of an alphatauri, my local off license is stocking weirder and weirder flavours of the energy drink by the day, and i bet you max verstappen is sitting peacefully at home with his phone off trying to disentangle one of his designer bengal cats from the pedals of his sim rig
