Ahead of the Qatar GP, Max Verstappen was relegated to P2 on the grid thanks to a one-place grid penalty. The Dutchman ended up winning the race, and received a happy radio message from his race engineer, Gianpiero Lambiase!

Lambiase speaks of karma after Verstappen victory

"Karma is a wonderful thing. You definitely did not drive unnecessarily slowly today. Great job," Lambiase began after Verstappen's victory at the Qatar Grand Prix.
Verstappen replied cheerfully: "Simply lovely, guys. Yes, yes, yes. What an unbelievable race again. That was really fun!"
This makes it nine victories this season for Max Verstappen, after he was crowned as Formula 1 champion in Las Vegas last weekend. This time, he had to wait less than after the Spanish GP, as it only took him two Grands Prix following the weekend at Interlagos to get back to winning ways.
