“There you go, 28,” the reigning world champion told Lambiase over team radio during his co🍸ol down lap back to the pits.&nb🎐sp;

Asked about the radio exchange in th💎e post-qualifying press confer🌞ence, Verstappen confirmed he had been egged on by his race engineer. 

“Yeah, he told me like 1:28 would be 🌸nice,” Ve𒊎rstappen said.

“I said ‘Don’t worry, I’m gonna send it’ and then he was like, ‘Yeah, b🐎u𒆙t like don’t shunt the car, right?’

“I was li🧜ke, ‘Yeah, obviously, that’s not what I want to do’.”

Verstappen added: “I knew that there was still a little bit lef𝐆t in a few places. 

“That’s what I tried to tidy up, which worked out quite well𝔍.”

Red Bull team principal Christian Horner said Lambiase was “winding” Verstappen up ahead of his final qualifying lap.&nbs♛p;

“GP [Lambiase] started winding him up for the last run, to say 🧸‘Let’🃏s see a 28 today’,” Horner told Sky.  

“I said to GP ‘Look, I’d like to see four wheels on the car at the end✤ o🐟f it!’

“That first run looked good enough to get the job done, but then he just went qu🍒icker again.

“All his laps have been stunning today. He’s done three laps on new tyres, and the lap on scrubbed tyres in Q2 to go secon💟d fastest… it has been a🔯n absolutely mind-blowing performance.”
