EngineerI'd like Tyre 10 on the exit of Turn 16 before you box. Tyre 10 exit Turn 16 before you box.

EngineerPush and avoid curbs

EngineerOK, brake temperatures have come up well. You're staying out to push on the in-lap and just be careful, don't go making a gap turn 12 or 13, race director's note.

EngineerWe don't need tyre 10 on the exit of the final corner Max

Kimi RAIKKONENIt's very bumpy coming in our box. There's some big bump in the pit line. You can see it visibly Okay And how much lower is this pit border this board need to be? Two centimeters. We should check it. Yeah, I know. We should check it should be done on a pit step practice

EngineerSo Lance, just watch your kerb usage.

EngineerAnd a reminder, double steer turns four, five, seven.

EngineerAnd your tire targets are 90 and 70

EngineerAnd try to focus on recharge since it's a bit lower than normal at the start of this lap.

Engineerbrake temperature is okay, it will be mode race for last corner and mode race, mode race

Daniil KVYATNo, it's gone guys

Sebastian VETTELFront right is not waking up, 15, 16.

EngineerCopy, Jornas in front slowing down.

EngineerAnd Carlos, what adjustment would you like?

Carlos SAINZTwo turns up.

EngineerCopy, two turns up.

EngineerYeah, it's caveat at turn 15 that seems to be an engine issue Yeah, they're pushing the car out

EngineerOkay, so I hope that it'll go green soon. Yeah, VSC ending, VSC ending, so you can stay K2+, and then mode push to start the next lap. VSC ending, VSC ending, still yellow at 15.

Engineerand we'd like diff mid 2 please diff mid 2

Lewis HAMILTONMy brakes aren't working properly

EngineerThat's a P1 10.5 Valtteri P2, you will get one more timed, if you're not comfortable with these brakes then we can box.

EngineerWe need multifunction mix position 3, mix position 3, and we will do constant speeds.

Charles LECLERCLet me know the constant speed. So

Engineerwe need FS2, 4th gear, FS2, 4th gear, and back to mode raise.

EngineerSo you're the only car on track.

EngineerYou were target plus 3, initial throttle was low, drive out was good and we can send the launch map off.

EngineerAnd Lando, how's the front wing?

Lando NORRISIt's not enough, we need to come up one hole.

EngineerOK understood, suggest we box this lap for front wing adjust.

EngineerOK, classification update, Bottas currently P1, a 35.1 on the medium, Albon P2, 35.8 on the soft.

EngineerThis is

Alexander ALBONquite strange, so much oversteer at high speed. Quite a lot of understeer at high speed this time, I felt like the FOMS weren't as ready as the previous lap.

EngineerCopy, understood.

EngineerOkay the losses to Bottas and Vettel are turns 8 and turn 10. Obviously that was your first time lap. Turns 8 and turn 10. So P1 was Vettel, 35.0, same tyre, Euro 35.5. Leclerc now 34.4.

EngineerOK, so just waking up the tyres down to turn 13. You've got a good track position ahead of you, so maintain position. First car behind time-lapse, Alvon at turn 10.

EngineerSo Nico, turn 10 you actually braked later last lap, but the speed is actually at the apex. That's where the improvement can come, not on braking later. Braking points are good on previous laps. I suggest brake 4 for front locking.

EngineerWe'll go for a double cool down lap please Max, double cool lap. Would you like any recommendations for sector 3?

Max VERSTAPPENNo, it's mainly sector 2.

Charles LECLERCCan we stop, try something on the front wing, and go again?

EngineerYes, we can.

Charles LECLERCThat's 5 clicks.

EngineerCopy.

Lewis HAMILTONAnd how far are we down from the rest?

EngineerSo to Leclerc P1, 9 tenths at the moment

EngineerOK recharge on please Max, and we'll box this lap, keep up with the base on the way in alright that one put your P2, just a tenth behind Leclerc, sector wise we are four tenths down in sector 1, just under a tenth in sector 2 and you are purple in sector 3, Bottas is two and a half tenths behind on the medium, Leclerc himself just under four tenths down in sector 3

EngineerBox, box, box, box, we need those tires again, take it easy on the piton tree

EngineerI should target something specific or? We'll get the tower warmed up and then we'll give you some feedback if we need lifting coast and if we need the lifting coast it'll be in sector 2 Copy

EngineerWe are checking, we are checking. All looks okay on our side for now, we'll keep you posted.

EngineerAll okay for you Robert?

EngineerWe'll do a practice start at the end of the pit lane. We need mode formation, two burnouts and target one red. Engine five when you can and try to work on modulation. Paddle modulation and you can keep K2 for all the lap.

EngineerOK, Vettel is approaching you side by side, just hold 7th down to turn 2 And Vettel behind, so let him through

Max VERSTAPPENMate, I don't even make it to 7 gear in the elevator

EngineerUnderstood, please hold mode 3 to turn 10, you can stay in mode 3 to turn 10

EngineerThe

Valtteri BOTTAStires are still all good and consistent.

Carlos SAINZCopy,

Engineerhappy to box Carlos, we can box this lap.

Engineercareful careful your rear wing is failed box box box

EngineerIt's like a very steady the rear wing is hanging off

Daniel RICCIARDOOkay, I'm not sure if you saw it, but I just lost the rear just off the brake
