I love Lawrence, but his first grid walk was rough man. They only have a few minutes to walk the entire grid and this dude casually pulls someone in for a soundbite, which ends up taking all his time. Then he starts to hurry, but also pulls a team lead for an interview, which also took way longer. I was getting anxious for him and then he just gave up halfway because he was out of time.
Hopefully they'll give him a second chance and maybe prepare him a bit better. If you want to include other people, just get a soundbite, don't start a whole ass interview. And you don't have to pose when the cameraman gets a shot of the car, just do your prepared lines and move on.
Walking and talking is also a skill, he sounded like he was out of breath the whole time. We saw he has a good condition, so it's probably just a question of practice.
Aside: The whole squash thing was pretty weird, Sainz just didn't say anything the whole time? Maybe it was the editing, but it was weird.
