EngineerFor

Pierre GASLYsome reason the rear tires are really hot compared to the front. Like I was on target on the front, but 15 degrees higher

Engineeron the rear. It's normal because we did the blankets for hard that are very high, but we have our reference.

Max VERSTAPPENCan you let me know how the wind is compared to yesterday?

EngineerExpecting the same as yesterday but I will let you know once we've got some track data

EngineerAt the moment similar max so tailwind turn three four then you have the headwind into six Before it switches on the exit of turn seven back into a tailwind exit turn seven

Max VERSTAPPENPress recharge because I wanted to upshift and it downshifted.

EngineerOK.

EngineerAnd for this run, use mode F2 rather than mode push. It will make MGUK correct for turn 9. So mode F2 instead of mode push.

Pierre GASLYThe steering is a bit bent to the right.

EngineerCopy.

EngineerHow were the tires on the first run, do you think? I

Romain GROSJEANdon't know.

EngineerBrendan, are you okay?

Brendon HARTLEYYep, suspension failure.

Pierre GASLYEngine feels really slow, is everything normal?

EngineerWe check, we check.

EngineerSo stuff will take a lot of care past the accident. There's a lot a lot of debris in turn six so Check the tire pressures copy we're watching

EngineerOK, understood, which corner please, which corner? Front left, as soon as I hit the brake OK, understood, front left Remember, P0, P1, P0, master switch off when you jump out Yeah, copy OK, we can see in the data Brandon, we can see that

Sebastian VETTELIs he okay? Let me know if he's okay.

EngineerYeah, he's okay.

EngineerWe have a hard layout, turn 7, turn 7.

Pierre GASLYIs he fine?

EngineerHe's fine.

Pierre GASLYOK. Did you check the engine, because it feels like I'm slower than yesterday?

EngineerYes, we are checking, Pierre.

Pierre GASLYAnd just check the tires as well, because there are some debris.

EngineerYes, we are checking.

Nico HULKENBERGAre the real temps really that cold?

EngineerThey're like in the 60s on my display. Yes, so that's, that's, temperature's correct Nico, temperature is correct.

EngineerOK Marcus, so for info, Charlie does same lap time than you, but we are losing a good 2.10 turn 1 compared to him.

Engineeressentially, traffic all the way yeah,

Sergio PEREZtrack position was very poor

EngineerThat's a nice lap Fernando, highest of the prime runners.

EngineerOK Nico, we're going to need to box this lap, we're going to need to box this lap. So why do we have to box? There's an issue that we need to sort out in the garage Nico.

Stoffel VANDOORNEIt's very strange on that last lap, it's like something was broken at the rear almost, there was zero, zero rear grip.

EngineerCopy, we'll check everything.

Engineertrack surface is slippery where you are now there might be some debris

EngineerPotential debris through 10, 11, 12, 13.

EngineerWe've still got the debris warning through 11, 12, 13. Do you notice anything? No, it's the last fast right-hander. There's a little bit of debris, but it's offline, so all good. Understood.

Kimi RAIKKONENI still have an issue in turn 4. Understood. The outlap was perfect, but the time-lapse was disaster again.

EngineerAnd for turn 4, Kimi, mid 2 could help. Mid 2 could help.

Kimi RAIKKONENDoes it affect the entry or something, no?

EngineerThe entry, yes.

Kimi RAIKKONENBut I have to do it before, obviously. No,

Engineerno, only entry to 4. Only entry to 4.

EngineerRaikkonen improved by four tenths on his second push lap on soft. I don't think that is going to be a trend

EngineerOK Lewis, so P1, purple sectors are 1 and 2, so 3 hundredths to Reichenen in the final sector, but all very close.

EngineerSo Lewis is more aggressive turn three to four throttle

EngineerHow's the balance Daniel? How's the balance?

Daniel RICCIARDOSlacks a little bit overall grip initially some front then the rear

Sergio PEREZWhat happened in the into 17? I just lost the rear end massively.

EngineerCheck a bit aggressive on the kerb 16-17.

Romain GROSJEANWhere can I improve?

EngineerEntry turn six is the place we could gain. There's no diff openness there. You could try a little more open diff entry or mid.

EngineerLook

Lance STROLLat all that traffic.

Daniel RICCIARDOYeah that last lap just lost the overall grip probably more than real

Nico HULKENBERGThe ETRS is stuck open Oh, now it's closed

EngineerCopy that, Nico

EngineerOK Fernando, we will have to go round again, we will go round again, so we'll take the chequered flag this time round.

Fernando ALONSOWe didn't take it already?

EngineerIt was basically a repeat of last year, we just about missed it.

Fernando ALONSOI mean, we cannot do the start now, even if we miss it for one tenth. We should stop it.

EngineerWe need to take the chequered flag I'm afraid, we need to stay out and take the chequered flag.

Fernando ALONSOWhat a joke.

EngineerDid he do that DRS thing in the pushing laps too? I'm not sure at the moment, Nico, when that occurred. I don't think so. I think you would have felt it, but we'll confirm later.

Kevin MAGNUSSENThe lid, like the thing on top of the chassis, you take off to see the pedals, it's falling off, just so you know. Okay, understood, understood. Box, Kevin, box, please confirm. Box now.
