Sains treated Elbon to breakfast as an apology.
Carlos Sainz took the blame for the collision with Alex Albon at the Dutch Grand Prix. Right after the race, the Spaniard apologized, and the next day treated his teammate to breakfast. Alex shared this in the podcast The Fast And The Curious.
Alex Albon: "On Monday, we had breakfast together. Carlos offered to pay, and I let him do it.
Everything is fine. I think people want to give this story more significance than it deserves. At the same time, it definitely wasn't like what happened with Max Verstappen and Daniel Ricciardo in Baku in 2018, and that's important to me. Right after the race, when you come to the journalists, you can feel their eyes literally lighting up with anticipation. They are already waiting for the continuation of this story.
So you have to calmly explain: 'No, we are not going down that path.'
To a joking question about whether he could now crash into Sainz as a retaliatory step, Alex laughed: 'I think that's a good idea, but I'm not sure the team would agree with that. I really shouldn't have said that because now it will all turn into an expected scenario.'
Albon also shared some details about the breakfast with his girlfriend and Carlos on Monday in Monaco: 'Lily had scrambled eggs with caviar. I had a classic avocado toast, and Carlos and I shared protein pancakes.
Carlos has too high an opinion of his pancake cooking abilities. I've never seen such confidence in anyone. Listening to him, he talks about pancakes as if he taught Gordon Ramsay how to make them.'"
