carpediem602004 asked:

“Should we save the engine and gearbox and park the car…..” Sounded stange to hear if from his radio. Some have criticized Lewis and some have said it was just a normal question to the team. What do you think? Should a driver who is paid millions drive regardless of his position, or should he concentrate also in preserving his car for future races even by retiring in a race when his car has nothing really major requiring a retirement?
