EngineerWait in the garage, do not join the queue.

EngineerCould be some rain coming, so we need this first lap.

EngineerLewis, we predict the rain will come from Turn 14 direction. It is on its way.

Kimi RAIKKONENIt's very dry in six and seven copy this but at least it looks very dry. I don't know it's very hard to see

EngineerMain straight is wet at the moment, no rain in the pit. 7 dry,

Sebastian VETTEL8 dry, all the back part is dry.

EngineerWhat the fuck?

Lewis HAMILTONTurn 4 is 6 OK

Engineercopy that, yeah, sector 2 looks like it's on the crossover, sector 1 and 3 look like they're the inter Search

Lewis HAMILTONto drive, turn 4

EngineerOK, copy

Lewis HAMILTONUntil the end

EngineerNice,

Lewis HAMILTONfeels like it's 6 to me

Sebastian VETTELIf there's no rain, I don't think we're far away from dry tires.

EngineerOkay, some rain is coming soon. This is what we got. Some rain coming soon. What is soon?

Sebastian VETTELTwo minutes. Two minutes. Okay, then it's not enough to do anything.

EngineerOK Fernando, we're going to box for a new set of inters, we're going to box for a new set of inters.

Fernando ALONSOInters?

EngineerI don't think it's a good idea. If you think it's dry, it's not urgent, we can wait. If you think it's dry, we can do dry. I think dry, if I stop I put the dry. Yeah, OK.

Stoffel VANDOORNEI think

Engineerwe need to box, these tires are not holding on. Copy, box, Stoffel, box, other cars are trying dry, other cars are trying dry.

Lewis HAMILTONStart to split at 4

EngineerOkay, copy

Max VERSTAPPENAh, light drizzle here.

EngineerOK, understand.

Kevin MAGNUSSENBut I think we need to hurry up because it's start raining.

Engineerand despite the reports of rain it's definitely quicker on dryers at the moment

EngineerDo

Sebastian VETTELyou expect more rain or not?

EngineerNo more rain, no more rain. Keep pushing.

EngineerGot

Lewis HAMILTONsomething hanging off my car.

EngineerOK, copy. Left

Lewis HAMILTONside, buddy.

EngineerOK, copy.

EngineerGood lap, give me good lap, P1 again.

Kimi RAIKKONENSo, pushing or not? Pushing, pushing, pushing. Yeah, but I'm still late.

EngineerI

Kimi RAIKKONENneed to take a charge lap. Copy, runway charge, runway charge. Restart. Don't tell me anything, it was a confusion. It's raining in 5 or 6.

EngineerWe've got rain around the circuit now, rain all the way around the circuit.

EngineerYou

Lewis HAMILTONshould have told me, I didn't realise I was running out of time

EngineerYou

Lewis HAMILTONthere Bono?

EngineerCopy Lewis, don't think you did run out of time I'm

Lewis HAMILTONdead, I went across the line, the lights are red

EngineerOK, copy, box, box Are

Lewis HAMILTONwe OK time-wise, position-wise?

EngineerAffirm, yes, no problem

EngineerUnfortunately, we are out.

Sergey SIROTKINYeah, I don't think we were the luckiest one, hitting the traffic.

EngineerYeah, unlucky, mate.

Sergey SIROTKINYeah, how much were we off? Because for sure I lost quite a lot with the Ferrari car in the last two corners. And obviously the next lap was nowhere. Starting the lap right behind the Ferrari.

EngineerYeah, copy that. Let's have a chat back in the garage.

EngineerI'm afraid we are out. Checker, we're not sure if it's going to rain anymore at any stage in that session, so we've got thunder and lightning here and we're expecting more rain at any session, so that's why we were out as soon as possible on the dry.

Sergio PEREZWe were always going to be out with that strategy. We really needed the last lap.

Pierre GASLYI don't feel...

EngineerWe'll evaluate the track conditions on the outlap, and then we'll decide if we need to come right back in for enters, okay?

EngineerIf you think it's into us, just let us know, we're ready for you.

Lewis HAMILTONStry so far.

EngineerOK, copy.

Kimi RAIKKONENOkay, it's wet in 12 and 11. The first part is quite okay. Yeah, it's too wet in here for the flicks. Box. Box,

Engineergive me box and we're going in test.

EngineerWhoa messes right now here out of 11. Okay. Do you still think you can get round or not? Father thanks to my box box box that confirm box pick up Box and pick confirm, please max.

Max VERSTAPPENYeah

EngineerSo expect conditions to worsen max, so laps early in this phase will be important.

EngineerHe's down here.

Sebastian VETTELYeah, last corner is aquaplaning.

EngineerOkay, if he's unsafe, let her know to box. Wet in turn 11, very slippery.

Sebastian VETTELWell, it's not getting faster, I think. Happy to stay out and see you again.

EngineerOkay, copy.

EngineerSo it's getting worse. OK, copy. Keep pushing.

EngineerYou're okay? Yeah, I

Lance STROLLcan get back.

EngineerI

Lance STROLLcan get back.

EngineerYeah,

Valtteri BOTTASfuck, shit's just getting worse.

EngineerOkay, that's one. Yeah, I'll check it out. Okay, give me a re-box. Give me a re-box.

EngineerOkay, this lab is not going well.

EngineerFernando, do you think we should do a new set of inters or wets? New inters or wets?

Fernando ALONSOI think we should go to the garage and see the conditions, you know, with the wets we can go out, but if we are 25 seconds slower, it's just running for nothing, we need to improve the P11.

EngineerOk Fernando, if we did that we would just have time, it would be only for one time lap at the end, it would be one at the end. I

Fernando ALONSOdon't know mate, put whatever tyre you want, you know, the last sector is impossible, so even if you put a rocket ship we will be 11th.

EngineerOk, we'll stop, we'll stop.

EngineerWe believe it's going to keep raining. We don't see an improvement in conditions this session, okay?

EngineerSo we've seen someone do a 28.7 in the last sector, so there is a possibility here. Yes, and 9 seconds worse in the second sector. I saw the TV as well.

EngineerUnfortunately we ended P12, you did go quicker than you entered on that last lap by half a second But yeah, P12 for us mate, that's it

EngineerOK Nico, the situation is that we are P13, I'm afraid that's it. OK Nico, we had a problem with the fuel bowser, so we weren't able to put the fuel in the car unfortunately. That's what's effectively put us out.

EngineerIt's extremely tight to do a three and a two

EngineerIt's getting slightly worse getting slightly worse for the next five minutes

EngineerHow are conditions, Max?

Max VERSTAPPENYeah, for extreme setting, because especially now you'll see in the last sector it's gonna be really wet. Okay, copy.

EngineerMode 1 available. Be smoother with the steering.

Kevin MAGNUSSENSector 1, there's too much standing water, guys. It's dangerous.

EngineerOk, understood. We are reporting that.

Lewis HAMILTONVery extreme out here. There's no grip out here.

EngineerSo the range should be diminishing from here on in.

Carlos SAINZYeah, I have very poor visibility with the gas link, so I'm making a lot of mistakes.

EngineerOK, understood.

Lewis HAMILTONWhat's

Engineerthe

Lewis HAMILTONreason you want me to hold? Just the track drive? Affirm

Carlos SAINZUh, no tire.

Lewis HAMILTONI lost this app.

EngineerYes! Get in there Lewis! Nice work mate! Beautiful lap! Are we good? We're good! Mate! Tick! Heck tick! That's a front row lockout boy!

Lewis HAMILTONGreat job guys, fantastic job!
