    Lance STROLLThat's so much traffic Brad

    EngineerCopy that, that's all people who spun or lived in for the yellow flag Should

    Lance STROLLI go around again?

    EngineerSo tires look okay. It depends on the on the traffic really Lance

    Lance STROLLWell, they're all behind me now. So yeah, we're okay on

    Engineerbattery. So I suggest we go this lap

  6. Sebastian VETTELFerrari13:45:130:17

    EngineerCopy that, check

    Sebastian VETTELmarker button and upshift between 13 and 14 and also 14 and 15 I think it was either 5th to 6th or 6th to 7th for 13 to 14

  7. Lando NORRISMcLaren13:48:500:07

    Engineerand focus on throttle pickup out of turn five

  8. Valtteri BOTTASMercedes13:50:470:15

    EngineerOkay, that's P2. Lewis P1, 40.4. There's 2 tenths to find in sector 1 and 3 tenths in sector 3. Sector 2 is good.

  9. Carlos SAINZMcLaren13:53:500:21

    EngineerOkay, that's another good lap on a used tire. The car behind will be Leclerc, 14 seconds. Carlos, we're now P7. Perez is ahead of us, but he's already run a soft.

    Carlos SAINZYeah, I'm quite happy with the car, mate. Especially that lap. Less rear grip, but still a decent lap.

  10. George RUSSELLWilliams14:04:240:15

    EngineerOK, we'll take the slow lap, target plus 40 on a single slope, still two cars on track, that was a good sector too, that was minus 0.8 relative to your first run, so target plus 40, 4-0, dropping rear.

  11. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull14:10:420:08

    Max VERSTAPPENMy last sector got compromised quite a bit.

    EngineerYep, that's fine. Remember what we discussed.

  12. Nico HULKENBERGRenault14:12:100:12

    Nico HULKENBERGI mean it felt okay, obviously quite a shock in grip level, so it takes a bit of readjusting But generally I was not unhappy with that lap

  13. Charles LECLERCFerrari14:20:010:18

    Charles LECLERCYeah, the traffic is horrendous. Copy, understood. You can do another charge lap if you want and then a push. They need to get out the way though.

    EngineerI

    Charles LECLERCdon't know, it's dangerous like this.

  14. Carlos SAINZMcLaren14:26:480:09

    EngineerOk Carlos, you know what we want to achieve with this tyre, so set your status accordingly. A bit of brake warm up if you can.

  15. Carlos SAINZMcLaren14:35:060:07

    EngineerTake care as it may be hot but check the drinks check the drinks

  16. George RUSSELLWilliams14:37:550:08

    EngineerThe ref lap is 47.3 from the high fuel quality lap, so 47.3, that's okay.

  17. Kevin MAGNUSSENHaas14:39:490:13

    EngineerKevin, we need lifting coast for brake temps 1, 7, 14, 16. And how is the tire? How is the tire?

    Kevin MAGNUSSENSo far, it's okay.

  18. Valtteri BOTTASMercedes14:41:370:11

    EngineerHPP 3, set position 1, increase lift and coast for caliper temps, Lewis 44.8 on the soft.

  19. Alexander ALBONRed Bull14:42:310:13

    EngineerIf you want to reset reference lap, it's fail, 12, fail, fail, 1, 2, fail, reference lap, reset.

  20. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes14:48:210:09

    EngineerLe Fleur has been in traffic the last couple of laps, his most recent lap was a 46.2 without traffic

  21. Charles LECLERCFerrari14:50:350:07

    Engineerand tire saving turns one and ten, tire saving one and ten

  22. Nico HULKENBERGRenault14:50:590:06
