Great job by Ocon in Monaco, just superb!
He has saved Szafnauer's job ahead of the next meeting with the boss in Spain.
Speaking of the boss, Laurent Rossi is still talking about the team in the third person while taking credit for motivating the turn-around!
“I am happy for the team,” said Rossi, who, when asked if he felt his words in Miami had proved galvanising, replied: “I would hope so. It’s a bit early to say that.
“But it certainly had one effect, which is to say we were not going to be satisfied with this, there’s a couple of things we need to improve.
“The performance of the car, as I said back then, will take time. It needs regular updates, upgrades on the car, and we will do it.
“Operational excellence? They did it and I’m glad, and then the mindset. They have also exhibited a very good mindset over the past two races so whether it (his remarks) worked or not, they are now doing what was missing so I’m happy.”

I wonder why Rossi talks about the team in the third person, rather than "we"?
If I'm not mistaken fellow CEOs Brown and Elkann rarely talk about their factory racing teams as "they".
