James Vowles, the head of the Williams Formula 1 team, spoke about Spanish driver Carlos Sainz, who finished third at the Azerbaijan Grand Prix.
Idman.biz reports that Red Bull driver Max Verstappen won the race.
"We have a really good relationship with him, we talk openly and honestly about what's going on here, what's going wrong and what's going right. And we're thinking about how we can benefit from it together. That's really important. He has always been in good shape. When you don't have speed, it's really difficult and it's very difficult to understand a lot of things.
We had dinner together on Thursday and it was actually a reset moment: We talked about questions like, "What are we going to do after this? How can I help? How do we do this?". At that moment, Carlos was in a great mood. And I'm not surprised that he came to this weekend in high spirits, because that's exactly what his motivation was from the beginning," said Vowles.
