   Engineer: So just watch where they're at, it should go great by the time you know.

4. Charles LECLERCFerrari13:01:37

   Charles LECLERC: Yeah, check the pit limiter.

   Engineer: Copy, we'll do that.

5. Kimi RAIKKONENAlfa Romeo13:03:33

   Engineer: Ok Kimi, your rear right TPMS is not working, but the left is. Ok Kimi, that's a 4 second gap to Leclerc, this is a good gap for the tow.

6. George RUSSELLWilliams13:04:54

   Engineer: So being multi-A7 position 1, multi-A7 position 1.

7. Pierre GASLYRed Bull13:10:39

   Pierre GASLY: I have big rear, rear issue.

8. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes13:11:38

   Engineer: OK Luce, at that time it puts you safe, so currently P1, we've got Verstappen behind 10th of the half, also on the soft tyre. We're doing now, another lap. Affirm, so you can use another lap for practice. You can use double slow or just stay in sync with the cars around you.

9. Alexander ALBONRed Bull13:12:30

   Engineer: You okay? Yep.

10. Sebastian VETTELFerrari13:12:38

    Engineer: Red flag, stay positive.

11. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes13:13:55

    Engineer: So let us know if you're doing double cool down or single, just so match traffic.

    Lewis HAMILTON: Double.

    Engineer: Copy.

12. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes13:14:34

    Engineer: So, red flag, keep the delta positive, just got a car in the barrier down at 13.

    Lewis HAMILTON: Who's in the barrier?

    Engineer: Album in the barrier, just gone backwards, driver OK.

13. Sebastian VETTELFerrari13:20:50

    Engineer: Track is clear, I'm in front and behind.

14. Carlos SAINZMcLaren13:22:28

    Engineer: Carlos, if we go now we'll be first, are you happy with that?

    Carlos SAINZ: Yes, let's see, just send me and I'll do it.

15. Sebastian VETTELFerrari13:23:12

    Engineer: Box, Sebastian Box. I look after these tyres. All the cars around in an outlap.

16. George RUSSELLWilliams13:24:19

    George RUSSELL: Guys, we're not loud from last week.

17. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes13:25:01

    Engineer: Set the gap to about 1.5. Just remember your time is safe.

18. Lando NORRISMcLaren13:26:05

    Engineer: And we are boxed this lap and we are safely through to Q2

19. Kimi RAIKKONENAlfa Romeo13:27:17

    Engineer: So

20. Carlos SAINZMcLaren13:27:41

    Carlos SAINZ: Yeah, he snowballed in the last sector, I'm not sure why.

    Engineer: Yeah, looks like just a bit optimistic braking for turn 13 and then it gets away from you from there, snapping the exit. Coming to be a very good lap until that point. Okay, so cars eliminated are Riken, Russell, Kubica, Albon and Kvyat.

21. Romain GROSJEANHaas13:29:18

    Romain GROSJEAN: Okay, yeah,

    Engineer: have a look at what we can do, but I'm very surprised by how much we're struggling

22. Charles LECLERCFerrari13:35:01

    Charles LECLERC: A lot of oscillations with bit limiter.

    Engineer: Copy, we've seen that.

23. Valtteri BOTTASMercedes13:36:52

    Engineer: Box, box, box, we are safe. So P2, Lewis at tenth and a half, mainly sector one.

24. Romain GROSJEANHaas13:38:42

    Engineer: Would you like a balance adjust? I don't know what to do mate, I honestly don't know what to do. Let's add 0.2

25. Kevin MAGNUSSENHaas13:40:35

    Engineer: So, Kevin, P6 is just like 0.2 seconds ahead, so it's very tight, so I'm sure you can improve, so we'll just figure out this last sector, but it's very, very tight, so you're still very competitive, and we'll box now, box, we have plenty of time.

    Kevin MAGNUSSEN: Okay, box.

26. Pierre GASLYRed Bull13:44:28

    Engineer: We are in a good position, we are in a good position, just do what you need for tyres.

27. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes13:45:29

    Lewis HAMILTON: Marcus, how's my out lap pace wise?

    Engineer: It was very similar to the other cars on soft.

28. Lance STROLLRacing Point13:49:24

    Lance STROLL: Sorry.

    Engineer: Copy that, Lance.

29. Carlos SAINZMcLaren13:49:36

    Engineer: Okay, use the delta on the in-lap, Carlos. Delta negative, but close to zero. And we are P8, P8. Well done, mate. We're through to Q3.

30. Lando NORRISMcLaren13:55:38

    Engineer: OK Lando, you're the first car out, you can drive this exactly as you want to.

31. Daniel RICCIARDORenault13:56:32

    Engineer: Front left brake looks a bit down on temperature.

32. Charles LECLERCFerrari13:57:25

    Engineer: Sebastian in front at 9 seconds Oh, there are lots of cars with him Hamilton and Bottas in front of him

33. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull13:58:43

    Engineer: You'll be free of traffic ahead and behind. Be about three pull toggle and recharge off when you're ready.

34. Lando NORRISMcLaren13:59:33

    Engineer: And Lando, that was a really good lap. We're currently P2. In sector 2 you were quicker than Hülkenberg and he was on a new set of tyres.

35. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes14:00:38

    Engineer: OK Lewis, that's currently P3, that's half a second to Leclerc, P1, Vettel, P2. So to Leclerc, 4 tenths, sector 1, 2 in the middle, you are half a second up, sector 3, purple. Half a tenth up, sector 3, purple.

36. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes14:01:57

    Lewis HAMILTON: Just check my shifts because coming out of three I'm hitting their shifts and I'm getting

    Engineer: Yeah,

    Lewis HAMILTON: a lot of oscillating after the shift. Is there a problem?

    Engineer: Standby

37. Nico HULKENBERGRenault14:05:01

    Engineer: Okay Niko, some work on your front brake temps would be good and using top left modifier for turn one is also good.

38. Sebastian VETTELFerrari14:05:54

    Engineer: Trunk is clear, you can push.

39. Charles LECLERCFerrari14:08:46

    Engineer: The last

    Charles LECLERC: sector

    Engineer: More charts and you have p1 Sebastian p2. Oh,

    Charles LECLERC: yeah. Thank you very much

40. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes14:09:47

    Lewis HAMILTON: Get there man, that's awesome. Thank you so much

41. Romain GROSJEANHaas14:13:20

    Engineer: Okay, dude, we are P9 P9. Good job, man. Good job Good

    Romain GROSJEAN: job everyone getting to Q3. So I'll be disappointed over P9 because I think that's the maximum of the car. Good job everyone

    Engineer: What's good lap, man? Good lap? What

    Romain GROSJEAN: are the gaps?

    Engineer: Two tenths to Norris ahead and then about two and a half tenths up to Hülkenberg ahead of him Not in this one dude, not in this car, but good lap man. Good lap.

    Romain GROSJEAN: Good job everyone. Good job. That's good to be back in Q3

42. Lando NORRISMcLaren14:14:57

    Engineer: And Lando, we've qualified in P8, P8.

    Lando NORRIS: Yeah, I know. It wasn't a great lap, especially the first half, so my bad.
