EngineerOkay, so I'm going to drive straight out. Track is clear.

Lance STROLLVery oversteering everything.

EngineerYeah, I saw that, so it's really tricky, so I think that if we have to go back on mid-4.

Fernando ALONSOYou need to tell me the wind direction precisely

EngineerOkay, we get the rear grip wasn't there Okay, so try and keep the rear temps up with the fronts We can let drop the rear temps were probably too low than we say So let's try and keep the rears up Ericsson for behind

EngineerDid you hear me? Boxed is not. Understood Kimi. If you want we can try to do the start. We pass through for the start.

Nico HULKENBERGin big trouble now stopping try

Engineerswinging the car side to side if possible pressure is back should

Nico HULKENBERGwe go back to scenario or something nico

Engineertry to do a time lap next lap

Nico HULKENBERGagain same again same

Engineeragain buddy yeah okay we'll box this lap nico swing the car about watch out for Verstappen he's three seconds behind on a time lap

EngineerOkay, so we'll just have to put a bit more fuel in the car to try and take it I also need more air balance, 0.7 more air balance Okay

EngineerYou okay?

Lance STROLLYeah.

Engineerokay let's just follow the instructions of the marshals and then P0

Esteban OCONNow stone's on the track.

EngineerCopy that Esteban

EngineerOk, where can I improve? Yep, checking now. Lap time is the same, so we'll find where to improve.

Engineerhow

Lewis HAMILTONfar off was i they did a really poor job with cleaning the track there's so many stones there it's dangerous okay

Engineercopy we'll feed that back

EngineerYeah, a bit of traffic during that lap. Copy that. How was the balance? Yeah, it was okay. I obviously feel I can go quicker by.

EngineerCarlos fill in, and I'm in the scale, **** it. OK, we got enough time for this, Carlos, so you can restart on the MZUK as soon as they let you go. OK, Carlos, so obviously this has cost us time to do fast, slow, fast, so we are fueling for prep fast again on the soft.

EngineerYeah, there's a lot of traffic here. Yes. Yep. It's fine to drop back a bit now. Drop back a bit now and then just push through 9 and 13.

EngineerTire is okay, you can call. Tire is okay, you can call.

Pierre GASLYSo much understeer, felt like the fronts were completely not working, so strange

EngineerOkay, I'm in the gravel okay watch for signs just take it easy and watch for signs I Think shape who doesn't look okay. We're still in okay place. So max coming eight behind. So just make sure we don't Get back. We're fine though. We're all fine. So max for behind

EngineerOK, so you've got Grosjean and Magnussen behind you, 5 seconds behind you, they have been doing first push laps, so be careful with them. Yeah, let's hope they are careful with me too.

Kimi RAIKKONENI'll finish this lap just to get the time copy

Engineercopy

EngineerOk mate, just think about your tyres on the way in for the next run, just think about what you want to do tyres for the next run, you don't have to let us know until you get back

Daniel RICCIARDOThink we stick with the original plan

EngineerOk understood

EngineerPressure is OK, just plus half on the flap. OK, copy that.

EngineerWe've got no grip mate. Yeah, it's nothing there is it? Okay, we're just thinking about what we can do temperatures wise for the next run

EngineerThink about long braking, long braking into the corner will help
