Isack Hadjar asked over the radio if he could overtake Max Verstappen again after Red Bull had let Verstappen pass him.
Verstappen quickly made up a big gap to Isack Hadjar, after which Red Bull decided to let Verstappen pass his teammate. Verstappen couldn't find the pace, and Hadjar stayed on the Dutchman's tail.
Hadjar therefore wondered if he could overtake Verstappen again. "If he can't get by Lando, do we stay like this?" Hadjar asked.
There was silence on the other end of the radio, prompting Hadjar to ask another question. "Hey! Don't forget to get back to me." This time, Hadjar got a response. "Yeah, mate, I'm working on it. I'm working on it now," engineer Richard Wood replied. A few laps later, Verstappen pitted for a new set of softs.
