  9. Valtteri BOTTASMercedes

    Engineer: Construct 12, close position, 1% deep.

  10. Valtteri BOTTASMercedes

    Engineer: Let us know if you want to flap adjust and cool the car. No flap adjust. So box, box and drive through for another start.

  11. Valtteri BOTTASMercedes

    Engineer: and push until turn 14 clutch position 2% shallow

  12. Pierre GASLYRed Bull

    Pierre GASLY: I have some awesome power

    Engineer: Copy, we believe it's because of mode 12, it should be better

  13. Charles LECLERCFerrari

    Engineer: And we need some full throttle, full throttle, last part, and you can go to the grid, and go to the grid, and go to P0.

  14. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull

    Engineer: Mode 6, Strat 8, radio check,

    Max VERSTAPPEN: radio check, loud

    Engineer: yep the radio is good,

    Max VERSTAPPEN: radio check,

    Engineer: yep, radio

    Max VERSTAPPEN: check, radio check,

    Engineer: ok I'll have a check on the way to 14,

    Max VERSTAPPEN: radio check,

    Engineer: loud and clear, throttling update,

    Max VERSTAPPEN: yeah that's all good,

    Engineer: ok, throttling update, ok box, box, through the pit lane, there'll be a little bit of a queue at the end, and Strat 3, Strat 3, you can get yourself in that now, ok Strat 8, and we'll have recharge on please for the whole lap, recharge on for the whole lap, but different approach to the lap now, ok to the grid, 3 ramps before you stop, 3 tyre ramps before you stop, and it's left hand side Max, left hand side,

  15. Alexander ALBONRed Bull

    Engineer: Mode 6. Mode 6. Feedback, that was minus 2. Feedback, that was minus 2. Sync gears. Radio check, Alex.

    Alexander ALBON: Turn 8.

    Engineer: Yeah, turn 8, loud and clear. Try your drink. Radio latched. Turn 10. Turn 10, loud and clear. Drive through practice launch. Drive through practice launch. How is your drink? How is your drink?

    Alexander ALBON: Yep, all OK.

    Engineer: Copy, and radio is still good. So, practice launch in mode 3.

    Alexander ALBON: Turn 8.

    Engineer: Yeah, turn 8, loud and clear. Try your drink. Radio latched. Turn 10. Turn 10, loud and clear. How is your drink? How is your drink?

    Alexander ALBON: Yep, all OK.

    Engineer: Copy, and radio is still good. So, practice launch in mode 3.

  16. Alexander ALBONRed Bull

    Engineer: offset two clicks rearwards to minus three, offset to minus three.

  17. Alexander ALBONRed Bull

    Engineer: How's the front flap Alex?

    Alexander ALBON: Feels okay Yeah, I'd say

    Engineer: It

    Alexander ALBON: feels good now. I'm a little bit worried that when the rear seat up it might go to oversteer

    Engineer: But

    Alexander ALBON: judging by the front deck, maybe it's okay

  18. Daniel RICCIARDORenault

    Daniel RICCIARDO: It's on the nose, so I'll take some wing off.

    Engineer: Would you like to try that for the last lap? You can do an adjust if you want.

    Daniel RICCIARDO: Yep, yeah let's do that.

    Engineer: How many turns?

    Daniel RICCIARDO: Three turns down.

    Engineer: Okay, understood.

  19. Daniel RICCIARDORenault

    Engineer: MFPU9, position 3

  20. Kevin MAGNUSSENHaas

    Engineer: And if you can, multifunction Bravo 2 to position 13. Multifunction Bravo B2 to position 13.

  21. Carlos SAINZMcLaren

    Carlos SAINZ: Carlos, speed late

    Engineer: Don't brake traction, drive straight through for launch at exit And Carlos, how was the front wing?

    Carlos SAINZ: Yeah, it's OK

  22. Carlos SAINZMcLaren

    Engineer: Carlos, that was 34% and you can keep pushing to turn 9. Ok Carlos, recharge button on please and cool the car.

  23. Lando NORRISMcLaren

    Engineer: And Lando, when you can, can we have white h9, position 4? That's white h9, position 4.

  24. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes

    Lewis HAMILTON: How's

    Engineer: the

    Lewis HAMILTON: track temp?

    Engineer: Yes, the track temp, on the track we've got 36 degrees, so similar to yesterday, about a degree hotter.

  25. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes

    Lewis HAMILTON: And where's the other car with the front wing?

    Engineer: So the other car is half lower than we are. But

    Lewis HAMILTON: this is the same wing balance as the Friday but with a different wing. So we should generally have more wing on now to take out that half a hole.

    Engineer: Yeah, I'm happy to go with that.

  26. Kimi RAIKKONENAlfa Romeo

    Engineer: Radio check, you mean?

    Kimi RAIKKONEN: Yeah, okay, it sounds just completely different than normal.

    Engineer: Yeah, I would not worry, it's because we're on the grid, there's a lot of interference. It's very loud, it's very loud, sir. Hey,

    Kimi RAIKKONEN: it's very loud. It's really loud, so please be careful.

    Engineer: Okay, I will not speak.

    Kimi RAIKKONEN: F***ing crazy loud. Is it right way round? I don't know why it's... Don't speak loud, because it hurts like f***.

  27. Lando NORRISMcLaren

    Engineer: Lando, tyre info. Everybody with free choice starts medium, apart from Gasly who starts hard.

  28. Daniel RICCIARDORenault

    Engineer: Alright mate, this is not where we belong, yeah? We're all pissed off by that, so let's use that aggression as a positive to make us fucking off.

  29. Carlos SAINZMcLaren

    Carlos SAINZ: I have a Bacture. Bacture.

    Engineer: Copy, copy.

    Carlos SAINZ: Mid 10, Carlos. Red mid 10. Yeah, Hulkenberg cresting to me, I think.

    Engineer: Copy, copy.

  30. Nico HULKENBERGRenault

    Engineer: Affirm. Front left puncture Nico, front left puncture. Confirming left front puncture Nico, left front puncture.

    Nico HULKENBERG: Yep, copy.

  31. George RUSSELLWilliams

    George RUSSELL: any damage we've got sandwiched probably

    Engineer: we'll box this lap just

    George RUSSELL: keep an eye on it if it falls off or anything we'll watch the pressures pressures

    Engineer: are still good for now

  32. Charles LECLERCFerrari

    Engineer: And DRS enable, DRS enable, gap to Hamilton behind, 1.5.

  33. Carlos SAINZMcLaren

    Carlos SAINZ: Yeah, it's broken. Something is broken at the rear.

    Engineer: Copy.

    Carlos SAINZ: Do you want me to race or what

    Engineer: do I do? Carlos, the crossweight looks normal. In the data, the suspension looks normal. I suggest you let Perez and Kubica past as the last few cars so we don't impede the race and then see if the car is OK.

  34. Carlos SAINZMcLaren

    Carlos SAINZ: I have a Bachter, Bachter Copy,

    Engineer: copy

    Carlos SAINZ: Yeah, Hulkenberg cresting to me I think

  35. Charles LECLERCFerrari

    Engineer: target 49.5 49.5

  36. Carlos SAINZMcLaren

    Carlos SAINZ: There's something abnormal we

    Engineer: may have aerodynamic damage we believe the suspension is okay

  37. Charles LECLERCFerrari

    Engineer: Hamilton with DRS.

  38. Nico HULKENBERGRenault

    Engineer: OK, for the reference Niko, leaders are doing 49.4

    Nico HULKENBERG: Giz, Niko, should take some pace out

    Engineer: It won't do any harm Niko, it will help the tyres Copy,

    Nico HULKENBERG: general grip level feels quite poor again on the hard

    Engineer: Copy that Niko, the leaders clearly driving to manage their pace

  39. Valtteri BOTTASMercedes

    Valtteri BOTTAS: tires still they feel like new and front right for the moment is sliding more than the rear

  40. Carlos SAINZMcLaren

    Engineer: Okay Carlos, that's Hulkenberg behind. We'll have blue flags shortly for Hulkenberg. See what you can do.

  41. Carlos SAINZMcLaren

    Engineer: I'm at blue flags now for Hulkenberg. Blue flags for Hulkenberg.

  42. Kevin MAGNUSSENHaas

    Engineer: This is a good job, Kevin. You're doing good with everything. Good managing.

  43. Daniel RICCIARDORenault

    Daniel RICCIARDO: We don't f***ing around, Scott. Let's go, boys. Let's f***ing

    Engineer: go. Let's get it, boy.

  44. Daniel RICCIARDORenault

    Engineer: Okay, so Kviat is 1.4 behind Raikkonen.

  45. Kimi RAIKKONENAlfa Romeo

    Kimi RAIKKONEN: Check what happened in the first corner

    Engineer: Yeah copy that we're having a look

  46. Pierre GASLYRed Bull

    Engineer: Engine 5, position 1, if we can manage position. Engine 5, position 1, if we can manage position. I leave it up to you.

  47. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes

    Engineer: Santa Clara 49.6, Vettel 49.2

  48. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes

    Engineer: You

    Lewis HAMILTON: can't really go much lower.

    Engineer: Copy loose, the bunch is still in the pit window.

  49. Nico HULKENBERGRenault

    Engineer: Under a safety car, you would end up P9 behind Giovinazzi.

  50. Carlos SAINZMcLaren

    Carlos SAINZ: I cannot pass Kubica and I'm destroying my tires and the car is undriveable. What shall I do?

  51. Valtteri BOTTASMercedes

    Engineer: so front left caliper the one we are worried about try to cool down the front left and move to the car that way

  52. Carlos SAINZMcLaren

    Engineer: So Carlos let's open a two-second gap to Kubica for a couple of laps open a two second gap to Kubica for a couple of laps and then we can try again

  53. Nico HULKENBERGRenault

    Engineer: How is the balance?

    Nico HULKENBERG: Yeah, it's pretty lively, I'd say.

    Engineer: But

    Nico HULKENBERG: then, if you look to the right, late entry is quite low, and this here is the same as well.

    Engineer: Yep, copy that, see that.

  54. Romain GROSJEANHaas

    Engineer: This pace is good mate. People at the front on soft are starting to struggle.

  55. Valtteri BOTTASMercedes

    Valtteri BOTTAS: Yeah, still can do at least target plus two, and it's gonna be front right for now.

    Engineer: So we are considering plus one for the hard.

  56. Sergio PEREZRacing Point

    Engineer: Checo for strategy A, minus 10 laps, target minus 10 laps. Are you happy to go down one and a quarter instead of one on front wing? A bit lower error balance.

  57. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes

    Engineer: And we're getting reports from some of the soft runners that they are feeling a drop.

  58. Kimi RAIKKONENAlfa Romeo

    Engineer: Ok, Kimi, still P11, your safety car window is closed, how are your tires?

    Kimi RAIKKONEN: Yeah, the rear doesn't feel very nice, but also behind the red pool, the rust is almost shit, rear is struggling

    Engineer: Ok, copy

  59. Carlos SAINZMcLaren

    Engineer: So Carlos, this pace is competitive, this pace is competitive, when there's a safety car you'll get back on the lead lap and then we're in the race.

  60. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes

    Lewis HAMILTON: So it's definitely starting to drop off a little bit.

  61. Lando NORRISMcLaren

    Engineer: And gap to Albon now, 2.1. Let's hold this gap.

  62. Kimi RAIKKONENAlfa Romeo

    Engineer: and you can go to SOC 8

  63. Charles LECLERCFerrari

    Engineer: Captain Hamilton behind, 1.5

  64. Charles LECLERCFerrari

    Engineer: Captain Hamilton behind, 1.5

  65. Kevin MAGNUSSENHaas

    Engineer: Box now Kevin box now

    Kevin MAGNUSSEN: Like what are you doing? It's way too late way too late

    Engineer: Understood understood. Just go mode push mode push. Keep pushing. Just go mode push mode push. You're okay

  66. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull

    Max VERSTAPPEN: Very low grip, mate, very low grip. Are you sure brake bias is working? It doesn't really do a lot.

  67. Sebastian VETTELFerrari

    Sebastian VETTEL: Go down with front wing.

    Engineer: Copy.

    Sebastian VETTEL: Two to three clicks.

    Engineer: Copy that.

  68. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull

    Engineer: Okay, you'll be bracing Hulkenberg bracing Hulkenberg on exit but white line on the exit white line on the exit

  69. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes

    Lewis HAMILTON: Let's undercut him

  70. Kevin MAGNUSSENHaas

    Kevin MAGNUSSEN: Big understood understood

    Engineer: understood. We'll work on the tools

  71. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes

    Engineer: OK, so box opposite to Leclerc. Box opposite Leclerc.

  72. Romain GROSJEANHaas

    Engineer: Tyres took a hit from that baton

    Romain GROSJEAN: Rammer is struggling to get the carcass back into the surface down

  73. Sebastian VETTELFerrari

    Engineer: Hamilton stayed out, so he's coming in this lap, head down.

  74. Charles LECLERCFerrari

    Engineer: We need to push as much as you can. Yeah, but what the hell? I mean...

  75. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes

    Lewis HAMILTON: Tires are still okay?

    Engineer: Copy Lewis, it is very close

  76. Valtteri BOTTASMercedes

    Engineer: Copy, test 3 is sliding a lot now. Yeah, box, box, box. It will be tight with Hülkenberg.

  77. Charles LECLERCFerrari

    Charles LECLERC: If I need to push more, then I can. Just so you know. Copy, understood.

  78. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull

    Max VERSTAPPEN: Let me know with Hamilton.

    Engineer: Yeah, we're right on this pitch that we know at the moment Obviously a bit of traffic for us ahead

  79. Valtteri BOTTASMercedes

    Valtteri BOTTAS: Race situation?

    Engineer: So race situation, Lewis is still out, he will drop behind Verstappen, in between Verstappen and yourself.

  80. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes

    Engineer: And just keep talking to us about the tyres.

    Lewis HAMILTON: They're

    Engineer: not

    Lewis HAMILTON: great, but I don't want you to stop me.

  81. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes

    Engineer: Let's keep this up, Betel is coming up against some midfield cars that have yet to stop, they're on the medium tyre.

  82. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull

    Max VERSTAPPEN: And keep me updated with the rear tires so I can prevent it a little bit.

  83. Valtteri BOTTASMercedes

    Engineer: Valtteri, it's James, can you do 48.8 please, we gave you the first stop

    Valtteri BOTTAS: That was 6, this isn't going

    Engineer: to

    Valtteri BOTTAS: go long I guess, or?

    Engineer: Yeah, 8番 Valtteri, I just need to make sure we can get these tyres far and work as a team, I'll pay it back to you

  84. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes

    Engineer: I

    Lewis HAMILTON: know this is not a great time, but this is all the signs have.

  85. Valtteri BOTTASMercedes

    Engineer: So you are only half a second unsafe to Lewis, so control the window.

  86. Kevin MAGNUSSENHaas

    Engineer: Kevin, multifunction Bravo 7 to position 3. B7 to position 3 when you can. Performance. Bravo? Did you say Bravo? B, Bravo 7 to position 3. Correct.

  87. Charles LECLERCFerrari

    Audio only, no transcript available for this message.

  88. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes

    Lewis HAMILTON: What do you think we should do?

    Engineer: So we just need to close up and come to the back of him, nice and slowly, we need to look after these tyres, the race will all happen at the end. Turning Verstappen with 47.8

  89. Charles LECLERCFerrari

    Engineer: You need to save your tires for the end of the race

  90. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull

    Engineer: Alright Max, if you just pull back from Leclerc a little bit please, look after your tyres and we need some margin on front brake attempts as well.

  91. Valtteri BOTTASMercedes

    Engineer: Race situation, Giovinazzi, Gasly, Ricciardo leading the race, they haven't stopped yet, right behind them Vettel, Stroll, Leclerc and Verstappen.

  92. Sebastian VETTELFerrari

    Engineer: Try to take more care of the rear, some 13, 1-3 and exit of 3.

  93. Alexander ALBONRed Bull

    Engineer: in front all on plan A behind maybe Hulkenberg plan B

  94. Sebastian VETTELFerrari

    Engineer: Brake balance minus one click brake balance minus one click

  95. Carlos SAINZMcLaren

    Engineer: Carlos, it'd be good to last until there's a safety car. There's incidents at the moment as the leaders go through the midfield and there's a chance of a safety car. It'd be best not to pit now.

  96. Valtteri BOTTASMercedes

    Engineer: Keep a look after the tyres, it won't be easy to get to the end.

  97. Kimi RAIKKONENAlfa Romeo

    Engineer: Ok Kimi, we would like to reduce our pace by one second a lap. Why? At the moment we are out of the point and we want to try to delay the car behind.

    Kimi RAIKKONEN: Helping how?

    Engineer: So Perez behind is five seconds behind. Yeah, I understand, but we

    Kimi RAIKKONEN: are out of the point and we are in front of Antonio, so how do we... How we see then?

    Engineer: Ok, forget all that, forget what I said, keep pushing.

  98. Lando NORRISMcLaren

    Lando NORRIS: Do you expect his tyres to go off a lot more towards the end? And

    Engineer: Hülkenberg pitted on lap one so we expect so. Car behind is Magnussen, he is 2.9 back and Raikkonen just behind him. They have made their stops so we'll be racing them to the end.

  99. Romain GROSJEANHaas

    Romain GROSJEAN: Brake pedal going

    Engineer: Brakes are very hot That's

    Romain GROSJEAN: gonna be impossible to overtake Impossible to overtake F***ing impossible That's

    Engineer: our

    Romain GROSJEAN: luck with Duken

  100. Daniel RICCIARDORenault

    Daniel RICCIARDO: OK, I have a puncture or something.

    Engineer: High speed 14, high speed 14 please. Yes, you have a puncture.

  101. Lando NORRISMcLaren

    Engineer: So, Lana, a bit of a race update for you. We are P8 at the moment. P8 in front of you is Hulk. Like I said, he stopped on lap one. We think he will struggle. Cars behind are Magnussen and Raikkonen. They stopped before you. We will be racing them all to the end.

  102. George RUSSELLWilliams

    Engineer: You okay? F*** you

    George RUSSELL: do it. Yeah, copy.

    Engineer: I

    George RUSSELL: shouldn't be surprised. Sorry guys.

  103. Nico HULKENBERGRenault

    Engineer: Yellow flag ahead, yellow flags ahead, Russell in the wall, right hand side, exit turn 8.

  104. Nico HULKENBERGRenault

    Nico HULKENBERG: It will be a safety gun for sure, it's an opportunity. I don't think I'll make it to the end on these tires.

    Engineer: Copy that Niko.

  105. Nico HULKENBERGRenault

    Engineer: Need to save as much fuel as you can into the safety car, Nico.

  106. Sebastian VETTELFerrari

    Engineer: And Hamilton lap time was a 45.4, 45.4 with pressure hours.

  107. Daniel RICCIARDORenault

    Engineer: Ok mate, so at the moment we drop back to P16.

  108. Charles LECLERCFerrari

    Engineer: Charles, that was the best thing we could do, head down, the race is long, let's concentrate on the safety car, you are doing a super job. Watch your tyres and head down.

    Charles LECLERC: Yeah, my head is down and it will be down until the race, I just want to let you know my feeling.

  109. Charles LECLERCFerrari

    Engineer: To be

    Charles LECLERC: completely honest with you I don't understand at all the undercut, but yeah, whatsoever we'll discuss after the race, but...

  110. Sebastian VETTELFerrari

    Engineer: We'll be racing Charles at the restart, give each other space, don't take any risk.

  111. Nico HULKENBERGRenault

    Engineer: Damp 8, Nico for the shifts, damp 8, little bit of front tyre temperature and brake temperature would be good.

  112. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes

    Lewis HAMILTON: Caliper temps okay?

    Engineer: Yep, happy with the caliper temps

  113. Kimi RAIKKONENAlfa Romeo

    Engineer: Ok, give me some update on strategy, behind you is Perez, he's on the same tier as you, but behind him he has Troll on fresh, hard, so I guess they will swap and try to attack you.

    Kimi RAIKKONEN: Which position we are?

    Engineer: At the moment we are P9.

  114. Nico HULKENBERGRenault

    Engineer: OK, Nico, you're riding the throttle under braking, so please keep your foot clear of the throttle. What

    Nico HULKENBERG: are you talking about? I'm

    Engineer: not. We see it in the data, Nico. Not right now, but generally speaking, you have been riding the throttle under braking, and that obviously causes a problem. So at the restart, just try to avoid that if possible, please.

  115. Daniel RICCIARDORenault

    Engineer: OK, so I reckon there will be at least one more lap under the safety car.

  116. Kevin MAGNUSSENHaas

    Engineer: Safety car in this lap, safety car in this lap,

    Kevin MAGNUSSEN: mode

    Engineer: race start, mode race start, spark one and big adjuster to the middle, big adjuster to the middle now.

  117. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes

    Engineer: So just make sure you're happy with your brake bias for the race start.

  118. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes

    Engineer: These guys ahead got over 20 laps.

  119. Romain GROSJEANHaas

    Engineer: QB to Ahead is on 18 lap hold hards

  120. Carlos SAINZMcLaren

    Engineer: Gap 25 seconds Carlos, go and get him.

  121. Lance STROLLRacing Point

    Engineer: Box this lap, box this lap.

  122. Romain GROSJEANHaas

    Engineer: Possible debris out of turn 21 on left hand side.

  123. Pierre GASLYRed Bull

    Pierre GASLY: Engine 5, position 2. Engine 5, position 2. I know, I can't see shit.

    Engineer: I

    Pierre GASLY: like to do it. I can't see anything with the oil. There is so much oil.

  124. Charles LECLERCFerrari

    Engineer: so 19 laps to go manage your tires and DRS enable DRS enable

  125. Daniel RICCIARDORenault

    Engineer: So Perez might be losing some oil, Gasly complaining about oil on visor.

  126. Pierre GASLYRed Bull

    Pierre GASLY: I know, but I don't see shit stuck on the visor.

    Engineer: Try

    Pierre GASLY: to wipe it and it's cursed.

  127. Sergio PEREZRacing Point

    Engineer: Check out we need to stop the car on track. We need to stop the car on track So find a position to stop we need to stop on track. You have five cars behind

  128. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes

    Engineer: Lewis, just let us know if you have the pace to stay with the leaders? I think

    Lewis HAMILTON: so.

    Engineer: Not

    Lewis HAMILTON: sure I have the pace to pass them, but...

  129. Kevin MAGNUSSENHaas

    Kevin MAGNUSSEN: Front right just died

    Engineer: Okay, understood. Check your funk. Just try more engine braking and things like that. What does the front right look like?

    Kevin MAGNUSSEN: It's no graining. It's just

    Engineer: Yeah, it went. Okay. Disappeared. Okay. Just into turn 60 and I'm getting some rejected downshift Okay, we'll take a look. We'll take a look

  130. Charles LECLERCFerrari

    Charles LECLERC: And for the restart we do SOC 7 again, that will help. I want everything, even engine mode.

    Engineer: Charles, we need to bring the car home, we need to manage the PU and bring the car home.

    Charles LECLERC: Yeah, I won't do anything stupid, it's not my goal. I want us to finish 1-2, I just think it's not fair.

    Engineer: But

    Charles LECLERC: this won't change, I won't be stupid, don't worry.

  131. Sebastian VETTELFerrari

    Engineer: You are doing a good job with tires now. Better than before. Well done.

  132. Kevin MAGNUSSENHaas

    Engineer: Okay, so I think we have some front wing damage. It's probably a good amount, a serious amount. So let's just use all our tools to keep the car turning, and we'll get to the end doing that.

  133. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes

    Lewis HAMILTON: Let's go lights out. Let's go

    Engineer: Okay, copy Lewis

    Lewis HAMILTON: No guys, don't waste any more laps Prankmas gone
