Hungarian Grand Prix2018 · Practice 3 team radio

EngineerDid I synchronize all of them? Confirmed, confirmed.

Engineerremember if the revs are difficult come off try again if it's difficult a second time be deep on throttle so I can see the wind is quite light maybe a slight tailwind exit turn five and a tailwind through eight and nine so exit turn five that's the way the winds blowing

EngineerYeah, I cannot synchronize it here. OK, Carlos, so we were a bit too low on revs to sync 8, so we need higher revs for that.

Carlos SAINZQuite a lot stronger front end compared to yesterday, especially low speed. The tires held on pretty well into the last sector.

Lewis HAMILTONKeep an eye on the vibration on the brakes.

EngineerOK, copy. Yeah,

Lewis HAMILTONso the left hand down.

EngineerVibration. OK, copy.

Romain GROSJEANWait, what is it doing it?

EngineerI don't know man. He's on the back off

EngineerSo Grosjean will be five seconds behind he's obviously gonna have a load of traffic to go through now

Sebastian VETTELI went wide in turn 5, I lost a bit there, otherwise it was ok.

Brendon HARTLEYYeah, I had a lot of overstay entry So I think I need to close the diff up or come forward on brake balance as well. Wasn't

Engineera

Brendon HARTLEYgood lap

EngineerSo two charge laps in a row. Sure. Yep

Charles LECLERCCan you do something for my rear brakes please, I want something for one of the rear brakes.

EngineerSo brake compensation 9, multi beam brake compensation 9, so we hope this will help.

Sebastian VETTELOK, something just flew into my cockpit, turn 8, box. OK, copy. Are you happy to do the start, or you want us to check the car? Yeah, I think so, I have no clue what it is. I'm trying to reach it, but can't find it. Do the start, doesn't hurt at the moment. OK, copy.

EngineerOkay, boys, there is something strange with the engine braking. In 12, I get some more. Okay. In 13, I get more than I want. 12, 13, more than you want, okay. Understood. You downshift, and after the downshift, there's a weird thing happening. Okay, Eric's in three behind on a push.

EngineerOkay Max, shall we have another go but try to keep the pace up slightly for this lap?

Max VERSTAPPENYeah but I don't think it works. I have no battery and to achieve a little bit of battery I have to be really hard on the downshift.

EngineerOkay so just make sure you keep the RPM high by being in as low a gear as possible during this lap.

EngineerWatch, we'll stop him behind, pushing.

Charles LECLERCYeah, I haven't seen him, but no point to brake test me just because I haven't seen him.

EngineerDo you need another push lap question?

Charles LECLERCYeah, we can.

Kimi RAIKKONENYeah, left front lost up grip on the last two corners.

EngineerYes, we so understood.

EngineerYellow way up Willie, yellow way up

Carlos SAINZYep, bueno

Carlos SAINZPeople are improving.

EngineerThere were a few cars that improved on the used set.

EngineerDid you touch anything? Copy that.

EngineerEsteban, we've got reports that a lot of cars are all four wheels off the exit at turn 5 using a lot of road on the exit there.

Esteban OCONThat is not allowed then.

EngineerThey are doing it, they are doing it there where you are now.

Lewis HAMILTONAh, I've got no grip, bonnet.

EngineerOn

Lewis HAMILTONtime, Vettel in group 2.

EngineerSo, Vettel at 1617. I

Lewis HAMILTONjust don't have that grip.

EngineerMy

Lewis HAMILTONtires aren't ready.

EngineerDo you still have understeer? Question?

Daniel RICCIARDOYeah, there's still a bit. I think the engine braking is too much, so I'd like to come off that, but add front.

Lewis HAMILTONIs

Engineerthere

Lewis HAMILTONstill time?

EngineerI think you'll be tight trying to get in a double prep lap Damn,

Lewis HAMILTONpush the box Yeah,

EngineerASAN, just do that

EngineerShould we try double cool-up, or what do you think? Yeah, we'll try the double cool-down.

Kevin MAGNUSSENCould you have a look at the locking on the braking into turn 5? Do I have front locking there? Okay, we have

Engineera

Kevin MAGNUSSENlook. Have a look at what's happening on the entry there. Okay, I understand.

EngineerSo basically, first sector you are extremely good. Last sector you are in the ballpark, can be improved. And then we are having a look to the second sector.

Romain GROSJEANOK, guys, check the engine response please. I think we went the other way now.

EngineerWhich means too much pushing? Pushing, yeah. OK, so make a torque change anyway to try and compensate it.

Nico HULKENBERGGod damn it! Massive traffic into 6-0 Copy

Engineerthat

EngineerI

Pierre GASLYdidn't do that, I forgot traffic. F***ing

Engineersick. Yeah, Pierre Grosjean pushing behind. Grosjean pushing behind.

Pierre GASLYNot anymore.

EngineerI don't know what's going on. It's very, very strange. I couldn't slow down the car at all, so I don't know. This run is very, very weird.
