Q: Sinner said right here that he felt a little disappointed by some teammates during the suspension period. Can you understand his (Jannik's) feelings, and have you spoken to him?
Carlos: With Jannik?
Q: Yes
Carlos: Ehh, well in the end... in the end everyone looks out for themselves, in the end there will be people who hope that certain players will maybe write to them or be behind them, I honestly haven't spoken to him during this period (x2) in the end it's a circuit, we can get along better, worse, honestly with Jannik I have a very good relationship off the track, but we are not very, very close, in the end we are also rivals, we can talk to each other, we can get along very well but being close in the end it is also complicated to be fighting for those positions when you are competing with him daily but what I do have is great respect for him, what he is doing now after coming off a 3-month break is incredible and obviously I am very happy that he came back, I am very happy to see him again on the circuit, and the truth is that I have not been able to speak to him, I have not spoken to him during this period, it is normal that he feels a little disappointed, with some players whether they have not been supporting him or not, I respect that decision, but in the end it is what it is, thank you.
At the end of the day they are still rivals, even so their words help a lot to the narrative
Drivers calling each other GTG
So, I did a little analysis on how the drivers are referring to each other in the last Grill the Grid video!!
You need to read the line to see how that driver is calling the ones in the columns.
Some conclusions :
Lando and Lewis are mostly referenced by their names as his Zhou but that's a specific case.
Checo and Danny have nicknames
Charles went all out on the name/surname combo
Max, Logan, Alex and Estie loves calling the others by their names only
Lando uses surnames unless your his friend, (ex)teammate or Lewis
Oscar uses surnames unless your Max, Lando, Logan or Zhou
George says Lance but Lance says Russell
Nico called George "Georgie" (while saying he has feminine lips...so what you want with that!)
There are many more things to read into this... In a more serious way or with shipping glasses.
You can see the table better with the link, if you want!
