5. Lando NORRISMcLaren11:00:40

   Engineer: Five point find, two burnouts and a second gear launch please. Track should be green in four seconds.

6. Romain GROSJEANHaas11:03:13

   Engineer: Turn 1 and 2. Turn 1 and 2, loud and clear and OK to push.

7. Carlos SAINZMcLaren11:04:43

   Engineer: and remember at some point we want to test a visor tear-off

8. Kimi RAIKKONENAlfa Romeo11:05:22

   Engineer: And after 9, I need mode R+, gear 6 until 11, please.

9. Daniil KVYATToro Rosso11:06:59

   Engineer: Tires are good, you can open the gap, it's staying out.

10. Daniil KVYATToro Rosso11:09:31

    Engineer: Can you think about pull toggle for three to six for the next if you need more support?

    Daniil KVYAT: Okay

11. Daniil KVYATToro Rosso11:12:58

    Engineer: Danny we can afford to be one click offset rearward brake offset rearward

12. Robert KUBICAWilliams11:14:01

    Engineer: When

    Robert KUBICA: I cool down then I do one more.

    Engineer: Copy. Ok, the track is clear ahead and behind, just reset your blend flick. And go push, go push.

13. Nico HULKENBERGRenault11:14:48

    Engineer: Scenario 8 and SOC 4, please.

14. Daniel RICCIARDORenault11:16:07

    Engineer: OK, and recharge on, OK, and how's the balance? You're clear from traffic behind?

    Daniel RICCIARDO: Yep, it was OK, a little bit on the nose, but not too far off, but yeah, I would take a little front wing out.

    Engineer: OK, understood, you're happy to do one more lap first and then come in for an adjust? Yep,

    Daniel RICCIARDO: yeah, no problem.

15. George RUSSELLWilliams11:21:05

    George RUSSELL: Something's not right. No power.

    Engineer: OK, box is that box, going up.

    George RUSSELL: Copy, can I change gears?

    Engineer: Yep, changing gears is fine. Just nice and steady on the way in.

16. Nico HULKENBERGRenault11:21:48

    Engineer: Okay Nico, ready for comments when you are, first thing we need to know is whether you wish to try the forward-forward setup so we can get on to it. Yeah, quite limited, low speed 5, 15 actually, it's more kind of understeer situation, but I feel in the third sector, particularly 12, 11, 12, 14.

17. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes11:23:16

    Engineer: A tenth, just over a tenth down sector one, two and a half tenths sector three. You were just under a tenth faster in the middle. So mainly minimum speed turn one, two.

18. Carlos SAINZMcLaren11:24:18

    Engineer: So, Carlos, that is P10. Lando is P6. He's three tenths up the road. That is two tenths in turn 11 and one tenth in turn 12.

19. Charles LECLERCFerrari11:26:41

    Engineer: And mode charge, mode charge, that was a good lap, box now, box, for a practice start, we need engine 6, engine 6 and mode FW, when you can, mode FW.

20. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull11:28:31

    Engineer: Okay, so just focus on bringing those tire temperatures down fronts are still the lead axles so they can't afford to drop

21. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes11:30:14

    Engineer: So Valtteri is now P1, 2.5 tenths, improved speed, minimum speed turn 1 and 2.

22. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull11:32:30

    Max VERSTAPPEN: Ty, I have no grip on the rear.

23. Antonio GIOVINAZZIAlfa Romeo11:35:30

    Antonio GIOVINAZZI: Disimposed to do the burnout Copy

    Engineer: Antonio

24. Kimi RAIKKONENAlfa Romeo11:37:34

    Engineer: Ok, so let's try one more time, and the tires are not bad, so I think they will be ok for the next push.

25. George RUSSELLWilliams11:37:52

    Engineer: No

    George RUSSELL: power.

    Engineer: OK, we can pick up the pace, it's OK. We're still boxing, but we can pick up the pace. It

    George RUSSELL: only seems to be in lower gears that I don't have the power.

26. Kimi RAIKKONENAlfa Romeo11:39:25

    Engineer: ok give me more charge box and push on the in lap push on the in lap

27. Nico HULKENBERGRenault11:41:27

    Engineer: Please can you do an aero P4 5th gear cruise exit turn 7?

28. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes11:42:56

    Engineer: and we just need to learn all the gears on exit.

    Lewis HAMILTON: Gears are learned already.

29. Valtteri BOTTASMercedes11:44:07

    Engineer: And still a little time to find in turn 8, everywhere else is good.

30. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes11:45:27

    Engineer: So that's sector one at just 4,000 slower than Valtteri.

31. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes11:48:31

    Engineer: Thank you Lucy, that's a P2, just four hundredths to Valtry P1, in terms of sectors, your best sectors, it's practically zero, so tenth faster in the middle sector, you're purple there, and just half a tenth slower sector 3.

32. Alexander ALBONRed Bull11:52:03

    Alexander ALBON: I had more traction after the last corner, a lot more.

    Engineer: I

    Alexander ALBON: don't know if that's

    Engineer: the

    Alexander ALBON: reason why the rain pushed the front so much, but then it felt quite strange.

    Engineer: Understood, no problem.

33. Kevin MAGNUSSENHaas11:55:01

    Kevin MAGNUSSEN: No, that's a big gust. Yeah,

    Engineer: definitely those gusts. Yeah, okay

34. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull11:55:15

    Engineer: I

    Max VERSTAPPEN: just have no grip from the tyres, it's everywhere understeering, oversteering, over the tyres, it's like they're not gripping up.

35. Romain GROSJEANHaas11:56:14

    Engineer: Good lap to good lap. Okay, so feedback on the slow lap. We need more full throttle to avoid derating

    Romain GROSJEAN: Yeah, but the sock emptied self at the end of the lap for some reason was I wasn't going up total

    Engineer: Okay, we'll look at that. We'll look at that. But just use as much full throttle as you can now to build up the charge

36. Nico HULKENBERGRenault11:58:24

    Nico HULKENBERG: Jesus Paris, on the energy of two and three.

    Engineer: Copy, no problem, let's keep focused.

37. Antonio GIOVINAZZIAlfa Romeo11:59:57

    Antonio GIOVINAZZI: I have some strange vibrations on the front axle, like from the floor, not from the tires.

    Engineer: Copy Antonio, we will check.

38. Nico HULKENBERGRenault12:02:02

    Nico HULKENBERG: What position are we now? With the 11?

    Engineer: You are P11, but obviously there's at least two tents in hand. And that would put you P8 equivalent to where Danny is.
