Gabriel Bortoleto about Max:
"Above all, he's my friend. A friend I met in racing and with whom I'm lucky enough to also enjoy free time outside of it. He's a person who does so much for you without expecting anything in return, he's special. I hope that one day I can mean the same to another kid as what he has meant and means to me"
So the lion plush toy was a gift from fans that Kimi was supposed to pass on to Max, but Kimi kidnapped it and posted it on Instagram.
Well I’m not familiar with your game, kid
🗣️ "It has been nice to have a bit of time to reset before the double header and good to be close to home and be able to see family especially when it is a hectic weekend on and off track."

“We took a number of positive steps forward in Miami and our speed is a lot closer to where we need to be. I felt like we could get better performance out of the car and I felt more comfortable. However, we keep pushing, because there are always things we can improve and work on; that is how we work as a team.”
“The race in Monaco always depends on a good strategy and – as always here – it will be crucial to qualify as well as possible. It was nice to have some time to reset before the double header and it is nice to be close to home and be able to see family, especially as it is a hectic weekend, both on and off the track.”
