The session, message by message

  1. Carlos SAINZMcLaren14:00:380:06

    EngineerOkay, launch map off and good warm-up on brakes. Warm the brakes.

  2. Sergio PEREZRacing Point14:03:590:14

    EngineerJakos, you should be in sync with cars around you. They're on their slow laps now. So Albon 7 behind, Ricciardo 10 behind. Ahead is Kubica Kiviat Bottas.

  3. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes14:04:590:12

    EngineerSo down eight hundredths, sector one and sector two, up two tenths, sector three, compared to Leclerc, he is faster on the straights, losing in the corners.

  4. Romain GROSJEANHaas14:06:180:06

    EngineerGood lap mate, good lap. Next pushing car will be Stroll, he's two behind, so watch for Stroll, two behind.

  5. Valtteri BOTTASMercedes14:07:100:11

    Engineerso look out for Ricciardo behind 3.7 I think he's on a slow lap that was purple sector 2 still purple sector 2

  6. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes14:07:440:10

    EngineerSo sectors to Vettel, down a tenth sector 1, up 700 sector 2, up three and a half tenths sector 3.

  7. Lance STROLLRacing Point14:10:080:17

    Lance STROLLvery bad at the turn one and two under braking the rear but then i have initial front locking switch

    Engineerto axle two axle two yellow multi-function to get to axle yep

    Lance STROLLgot it

  8. Romain GROSJEANHaas14:12:250:17

    EngineerWould you like a balance adjust?

    Romain GROSJEANJust a normal delta, plus 0.2 Normal delta and plus 0.2 Ok

    Engineerunderstood, we'll likely change downforce 2

  9. Sergio PEREZRacing Point14:14:120:14

    EngineerCheck how you can compromise turn 4 entry with earlier braking. Turn 4 to get better exit. Reports of light rain where you are now.

    Sergio PEREZYes, I can see it.

  10. Valtteri BOTTASMercedes14:14:450:06

    EngineerI suggest keep push and try third gear turn two.

  11. Nico HULKENBERGRenault14:16:530:15

    EngineerOkay Nico, just be careful for rain at turn 8, 9, 10. Also on the straight from 10 to 11, if you can do an extra break before turn 11 to get some extra break, I'm sure that should help.

  12. Sergio PEREZRacing Point14:18:010:11

    EngineerBox, box, box, box, we will do a front wing change, so keep the engine running and we will do a front wing change and go out of the pit lane.

    Engineera

    Kimi RAIKKONENthe B-ball stopping or what?

    EngineerNo, signs, keep pushing, keep pushing, you can try if you want, here we go.

  24. Valtteri BOTTASMercedes14:54:250:05
