6. Nico HULKENBERGRenault10:08:27

   Nico HULKENBERG: Dave, the burnout button, the start lights, they don't work, reliable. I pressed them three times.

   Engineer: We copy that, Nico.

7. Nico HULKENBERGRenault10:09:43

   Nico HULKENBERG: Dave, the burnout button, the start lights, they don't work, reliable. I pressed them three times.

   Engineer: We copy that, Nico.

8. Charles LECLERCFerrari10:13:42

   Charles LECLERC: But there's something very weird on the front right my tire is dead

9. Antonio GIOVINAZZIAlfa Romeo10:20:18

   Engineer: So, tyres will be on the cold side, you can push but pay attention on the tyres.

10. Nicholas LATIFIWilliams10:20:35

    Nicholas LATIFI: I was getting quite a lot of cutting in 7th gear there, I'm not sure if that's normal

11. Alexander ALBONRed Bull10:23:44

    Alexander ALBON: Yep, so very strange valance, really oversteery with low speed, I think that's our biggest issue, high speed seems also touchy, the car feels very sharp on entries everywhere, and I really can't take any loads.

    Engineer: Okay, copy that.

12. Sebastian VETTELFerrari10:24:59

    Sebastian VETTEL: Okay, you can't do two consecutive laps through the tiles.

    Engineer: Okay, understood.

13. Nico HULKENBERGRenault10:25:30

    Nico HULKENBERG: Here's some good barbecue in here.

    Engineer: Copy that, Nico.

14. Alexander ALBONRed Bull10:29:24

    Engineer: Looked a bit better with entry 8

    Alexander ALBON: Yeah, a bit better, but still Seemed to be very natural everywhere

    Engineer: Copy that

15. Sebastian VETTELFerrari10:30:02

    Sebastian VETTEL: Yeah, that was a mess at PDEXIT, so I chose what felt right, just to avoid people and give them a clear shot.

    Engineer: Ok, copy.

16. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull10:33:06

    Max VERSTAPPEN: I don't know what's going on, I'm siding a lot, just can't find more grip lap by lap.

17. Carlos SAINZMcLaren10:35:16

    Engineer: Carlos, wind has picked up a bit. That was a 15 kph tailwind when the car snapped. A bit more wind now.

18. Valtteri BOTTASMercedes10:37:45

    Engineer: And

    Valtteri BOTTAS: just a note the steering is pointing right hand down on the straights.

    Engineer: Okay we'll correct that.

19. Daniel RICCIARDORenault10:55:49

    Daniel RICCIARDO: I lost the front, turn 6.

20. Daniel RICCIARDORenault10:59:08

    Engineer: Any balance feedback?

    Daniel RICCIARDO: Pretty similar, pretty similar I'd say, I'd say front left is a little bit trickier in the first part of the lap, particularly turn 6, but otherwise it's ok, pretty similar.

    Engineer: Ok, understood.

21. Kevin MAGNUSSENHaas11:01:04

    Engineer: How is that balance now?

    Kevin MAGNUSSEN: Better, but still, the rear is a bit nervous.

    Engineer: Yeah, still nervous. Okay, let's see if we can keep some rear temp, start the lap around 90 instead of 85.

22. Daniel RICCIARDORenault11:03:00

    Engineer: Okay, there's some time to gain on minimum speed it turns four five and turn nine

23. Valtteri BOTTASMercedes11:04:02

    Engineer: Main places to find time turn 8 carry more speed and into 11 into 11 you heard under rotation on the front inside

24. Kevin MAGNUSSENHaas11:05:57

    Engineer: So I think rather than use another lap which just box because we don't have any more tools left in the car to make it Better and we're just still useful to find out where we are on high fuel

25. Pierre GASLYRed Bull11:08:29

    Pierre GASLY: It's a

    Engineer: bit

    Pierre GASLY: difficult with the traffic.

    Engineer: Yeah, you just have to make the best of the situation, mate. I can't control everyone else. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, no, I know, I'm just telling you. It

    Pierre GASLY: wasn't

    Engineer: a

    Pierre GASLY: perfect lap. Small pace.

26. Valtteri BOTTASMercedes11:10:22

    Engineer: So that's B1.

27. Daniil KVYATToro Rosso11:13:09

    Daniil KVYAT: Okay, so there is something loose hanging around my left feet.

    Engineer: Okay, we will check.

28. Valtteri BOTTASMercedes11:14:39

    Engineer: So we're going to do an anti-stall check in gear coming into the box but Lewis seven seconds ahead he'll probably be in the box so stop short quite well short in case he's not anti-stalling properly.

29. Carlos SAINZMcLaren11:16:38

    Engineer: Carlos, do you want to try the other throttle map or happy with this one?

    Carlos SAINZ: I'm actually happy with this one.

    Engineer: Okay, good.

30. Sebastian VETTELFerrari11:17:21

    Sebastian VETTEL: Something doesn't feel quite right at the front.

31. Carlos SAINZMcLaren11:18:40

    Carlos SAINZ: Yeah, too much grinding. Can I box?

    Engineer: We'd like to get a lap for the data with this front wing, Carlos. There's not time to do a setup change. I'd like to get one lap for this front wing.

32. Sebastian VETTELFerrari11:19:16

    Sebastian VETTEL: Okay, check something didn't feel quite right at the front. I had some vibrations on the front axle Okay, the first sector in particular like turn four particular Okay, the car was a lot on the nose

    Engineer: We

    Sebastian VETTEL: don't see anything at the moment, but we are checking

33. Lando NORRISMcLaren11:20:18

    Engineer: And we can go again this lap if you want to.

    Lando NORRIS: There's no point, I can't tell you anything. The tyres are too destroyed to give you any feedback to.

34. Lando NORRISMcLaren11:20:57

    Engineer: What

    Lando NORRIS: do

    Engineer: you want

    Lando NORRIS: me to do? It's so understeery, I won't

    Engineer: give

    Lando NORRIS: you any feedback, but do you want me to do another lap for the day?

    Engineer: If you're not going to get a read, then there's no point doing another lap, so I suggest we box this lap.

    Lando NORRIS: Yeah, confirmed. Box this lap.

35. Nico HULKENBERGRenault11:26:05

    Nico HULKENBERG: The fronts are getting a pretty hard time, front left is taking profit off.

36. Pierre GASLYRed Bull11:26:08

    Pierre GASLY: Yeah, we're good. Just let's complete the rear

37. Pierre GASLYRed Bull11:27:04

    Engineer: How are the tires? How are the flat spots?

    Pierre GASLY: Yeah, they're square

38. Nico HULKENBERGRenault11:29:39

    Nico HULKENBERG: We're in the tyre where the car starts pulling to the right a lot.

    Engineer: Copy that Niko, understood.

39. Alexander ALBONRed Bull11:32:56

    Engineer: Sorry Alex, we didn't get the static pit stop, it's a shame
