ISACK RISING

I photographed Isack Hadjar coming up the escalator from the Marriott Hotel this morning, and interestingly, security had no qualms about letting Isack through the same passageway that they stopped Kimi Antonelli from using two days ago. Perhaps there’s been a change of policy.

WHO'S JACK?

He’s the guy in the white shirt who works with Max Verstappen. The pair have known each other for a decade, and Jack has a racing background in both karting and F4. He grew up in Hong Kong and can be found at most races alongside the four-time World Champion. I’ve tagged him in the post for you, check it out.

NOT TAKING THE SCENIC ROUTE

Lewis Hamilton arrived this morning taking a more well-trodden route through the paddock than he often does, ahead of today’s race where he’ll start from P6. Speaking over the radio yesterday, Lewis told his race engineer that he’d use the trackside TV screens to get the information he needed if the team weren’t able or willing to provide it.

A YOUNGER AND BETTER TOTO

Not my words, those are the words of Cadillac Team Principal Marcin Budkowski. The likeable Pole is loving life at his new team so far, and is roughly the same height as Mercedes’ Toto Wolff. Two fine fellows.
