Schumacher urges Hadjar to change approach after Red Bull radio outburst

Ralf Schumacher has urged Isack Hadjar to change how he addresses Red Bull after the driver's team-radio outburst during the United States Grand Prix. Hadjar was audibly upset during the race after an issue arose with his car.

Speaking after the race on the Backstage Boxengasse podcast, Schumacher said Hadjar's conduct was “not behaviour that you should display in this way.”

Schumacher said it was a shame Helmut Marko was no longer at Red Bull, because he believed Marko would have drawn a line over Hadjar's conduct if he were still with the team. He also said Hadjar should leave the behaviour behind and consider the wider consequences of his words; in Schumacher's view, the driver now bears too much responsibility for the team, its brand and himself to continue speaking that way.
