Lewis HAMILTONTake some more wind please

EngineerOkay, copy, pulling back into the garage Just be careful with that tailwind, cars are running on

EngineerI

Sergio PEREZneed to close up the helmet. Too much air coming through.

EngineerYou gotta cool the brakes, rear brakes.

EngineerOK Fernando, tyre info. Option starters are Hülkenberg and Gatley. Backup starters are Hartley and Grosjean. Everybody else is on prime.

Pierre GASLYCheck the... Check the tires! Check the tires, I want to...

Fernando ALONSOOkay, I need to pox. What a stupid guy. He closed me the door. You know, we were side by side. I don't understand.

EngineerObviously just keep as much temp in the tires as possible, but don't go wasting too much fuel doing it

EngineerChecker, we are going to box. We are going to box. It's too much damage. We are going to box.

Lance STROLLI'm locking the front a lot when I hit the pedal hard.

EngineerSo caliper temperatures not very hot but they're getting to the hotter end just information

EngineerSo give me feedback, in terms of fuel we are very close to be on target so will be not an issue. And if you can take a bit easy with the rear brakes, they are a bit hot.

EngineerYou start

Lewis HAMILTONstopping, that's dangerous.

EngineerPit 4, grip. OK, copy. You can use HVP 4, position 3 if you need it.

EngineerOK, tyres are looking good now, tyres are good.

Max VERSTAPPENMate, my battery is not starting.

EngineerIt's the overtake button usage, Max.

EngineerLeave me alone

EngineerRepeat please Max.

Max VERSTAPPENI'm clipping like hell!

EngineerI hit the wall OK

Nico HULKENBERGOh it's over

EngineerTry and get it back if you can This race isn't over yet

Daniel RICCIARDOHow can I charge the battery?

EngineerMode 7, charging up quick here, mode 7.

Romain GROSJEANOur Yokeanto speed feels very slow.

EngineerI think I have a problem with the GPS. All the power,

Brendon HARTLEYenergy and DRS is wrong.

EngineerUpdate your tyre switch when you can

EngineerI thought it was Flam B, not Flan A.

Stoffel VANDOORNEMassive lock-up.

EngineerCopy, how's the vibration?

Stoffel VANDOORNEFeels quite flat.

EngineerWhat

Lewis HAMILTONmy police tires is for?

EngineerOkay, copy

EngineerYeah, copy. Okay, we'll sort it out for the next one.

EngineerSo, Kimi, the DRS activation will be manual everywhere, manual everywhere. You can use it only when I tell you, only when I tell you. And the message will be DRS OK.

EngineerLap 19 completed, Hamilton 4.4 behind, very good lap.

EngineerAnd Lewis, can we go chassis default 40, 4-0? So cancel chassis default, cancel chassis default.

Lewis HAMILTONSomething's happened, I don't know what, man.

EngineerOkay, copy, we'll look into it.

Lewis HAMILTONIt's tyres are done.

EngineerCopy, copy, so box, box, box, box, we're ready for you.

Lewis HAMILTONDon't mess with me with the switch changes, okay?

EngineerWe have 8 seconds margin to Hamilton, 8 seconds margin, we stay out.

EngineerOkay, so Hamilton came out on soft tyres, looks like his Wilmot's not very good

Kimi RAIKKONENI'll just lay back and I'll try to let the car out

Engineerof

Kimi RAIKKONENthe car.

Lewis HAMILTONJust just messed my race up

Lewis HAMILTONIt's a long way to go on these tyres.

EngineerShould easily do the race.

EngineerOkay, Pace is picking up, that's good, we're slightly ahead of Grosjean now in the pit window, that's good.

EngineerOkay Carlos, you're gaining 4 tenths per lap to the cars ahead.

Carlos SAINZYeah, I feel like I'm losing temperature in the front tires, I have more shattering on the front with every lap.

EngineerOK, understood.

EngineerAnd Lewis, we will need low 45s if we want to keep P2, low 45s.

Kimi RAIKKONENCan we get more even on the reels?

EngineerI'm multi-B white RB position 8 when you can. Multi-B white RB position 8, not urgent. Do

Sebastian VETTELI need it if I don't want it?

EngineerOkay, go ahead like this.

Max VERSTAPPENIt's always very cold or something, very long trip.

EngineerYep, we are losing a little bit of temperature Max, so just keep up the pace for the moment, you're doing a solid job.

EngineerAnd a blue flag for Bottas, leader of the race.

EngineerOk Stoffel, how's this tyre doing now? Yeah, not great. It's not really grating but losing performance.

Lewis HAMILTONThese drivers aren't moving out of the way.

EngineerYeah, copy that Lewis, we can see it.

Max VERSTAPPENI can't continue anymore

EngineerOkay, understand Max, I understand we're getting close just keep it clean at the moment

EngineerRight now you're gonna have to do them again. Let's game come on

EngineerP0 before you get out mate if you're stuck

Sebastian VETTELEverything okay?

EngineerYeah, everything okay.

EngineerI think the circuit is blocked. Stay positive, stay positive, stay positive.

Kimi RAIKKONENI think the circuit is blocked, they are telling us to go through pit lane for everybody.

EngineerHow can it be a hairball? He was in front at 12 seconds and he had the gap to pit for the safety car.

EngineerLookout for the debris is around turn one, both Red Bulls collided.

Engineerwe can un-lap ourselves. So, stay focused.

EngineerOkay, keep warming your tires.

EngineerSo stay on line, no weaving.

Lewis HAMILTONI thought I already did that.

EngineerOK, copy Lewis, no worries. No I don't,

Lewis HAMILTONare you telling me to turn it back off, or what?

EngineerSo just leave it as it is, thank you very much.

Lewis HAMILTONRight front seems to be glazed.

EngineerOK, roger, looking at it. OK, looks like it's coming back up. It's just a small offset Lewis, looks like, across the front axle, but not actually glazed, so yeah, just keep working them.

Kimi RAIKKONENThe cars are not giving the minimum length of the cars to each other.

EngineerUnderstood, Kimi.

EngineerSo keep working those tires.

EngineerDo you

Lance STROLLwant saturating on the front?

EngineerYeah, copy that, that's fine. Is

Lance STROLLit better if I saturate?

EngineerYes, copy, you can do that, copy.

Engineerluca it's already locking the front now the brake balance yeah i know but i did that for the temperature for the front temperature so if you start to lock go back minus two click

Sebastian VETTELHow were the tires for Kimi? Oh, he didn't do

Engineermuch on the first lift. Yeah, he did only half a lap on one lap.

EngineerNeed

Lewis HAMILTONto tell Charlie that he should have stopped the race that truck The back end of that Chuck that corner of that trailer the easy touchy smashes Copy

Engineerthat Lewis. That's noted

EngineerOh my god, it just blew up on it's own. **** 12, defmet 12.

EngineerCome on, come on Lance, Gleckler, Gleckler, one more lap.

EngineerGet in there Lewis. Well done mate. I think lady luck was on our side today That's real bad luck for Valtteri, so yeah heart goes out to him
