Poor Sargeant. He gets a lot of shit, but that's gotta suck being sick out there, as hot and humid as it is. Yeah, nothing wrong with retiring if he really can't handle it anymore.

According to Dutch commentators he doesn't like to drink during racing. Could very well be the cause?

(I don't know if he was sick from the start)

F1TV commentators mentioned that he actually was sick over the whole weekend, but the team kept it quiet.

I was really worried he was going to crash the way he sounded. Absolutely right decision to retire and the team sounded really supportive.

What a shitty situation to be in really....
