Verstappen and GP frosty radio comms.
Is the frosty treatment of Max by his race engineer a recemt thing, or am I only noticing it now?
I know Max said that if GP retires, he will stop racing, but it seems to me that GP has been less than diplomatic in his comms with Max this year.
Notable today was the "we all got that from your previous message" response to Max complaining about his tyres. Is it maybe a case of that's just what works between them?
I don't think I saw GP at the podium celebrations, but again it could just be me.
Would love some insight from you guys.

GP has always sounded like the dad that's heard enough of Max's shit. It seems to work for them well!
Maybe that's just the kind of dad Max responds to. We don't hear all the radio messages where GP threatens to leave him at a gas station
It's kind of true, Max spend his whole racing career hearing it exactly how it is. Not someone trying to not hurt his feelings. Jos told him if he fucked up, and made sure Max understood.
I do get that feeling from hearing Max's interviews - he does love racing, but has a rather professional demeanor much of the time. And a lot of the other drivers are like him in that regard, at least from what I can tell. (Well, maybe except Kimi late in his career, when it was just a hobby.)
