70th Anniversary Grand Prix2020 · Practice 3 team radio

EngineerRadio check.

Sebastian VETTELRadio check, pit exit.

EngineerWe'll do CSL 4 4th gear and then check DRS. You can go multi GX3, multi GX3 when you can.

Charles LECLERCThe first time I go to P2 then I crank it and it doesn't work. Yesterday also I did the same, I don't know why.

EngineerOK, we'll check that. Speed limiter on.

Daniil KVYATJoachim Ilczek please steering wheel seems to be bent to the right

EngineerAfter the CSL, okay to push, okay to push.

EngineerCarlos as we discussed the wind does go to a tailwind between 3 and 4, 16-17 kph tailwind there.

EngineerGood warm-up on the brakes

Engineerand slow cooldown lap we want plus 60 which is plus 25 on your dash

EngineerAnd at the moment the track seems slower than yesterday because of the wind

Engineersnap in 16 is where the car where the wind moves to a tailwind and we see a 20k tailwind breaking for turn 15 places where Lando's quicker are turn one and two and breaking and entry through 12 and 13.

Carlos SAINZOne and two or three or four? Sorry three and four three and four.

EngineerThe snaps in turn three and turn six are all wind change of directions

EngineerAnother cool-down lap. First car behind is Vettel, 46 seconds back, currently slow. He might start a time-lap next time. Would you like another attempt?

Lando NORRISYep.

EngineerOK, the snaps in turn 3 and turn 6 are all wind change of directions.

Engineerand we need secondary airs position five airs position five

EngineerYou are faster sector one and two losing to tenth sector three

Carlos SAINZYeah I have a lot of mid-corner washout in 7.

EngineerCopy.

EngineerOK, Mr. Mann, just a reminder to be firm with your brakes on the outlet, please.

Engineerand we will do a pit start, we need one burnout, mode formation, one burnout, no by point and target 3 red

EngineerAnd target, as agreed before, second gear, remember throttle pedal, throttle pedal.

Kimi RAIKKONENOK, put two clicks more front wing. Yeah, no problem.

EngineerAnd box, box.

Kimi RAIKKONENAnd police, check the right hand side of the front wing. OK,

Engineermode four, three burnouts and no static by-point.

George RUSSELLAndrew, I think what we did, turn 3, turn 4, been making it seem alright now?

EngineerYep, a fair amount of good on our side.

EngineerReally good improvement there at the end of the lap at the latter part of the lap There's definitely a lot of wind going on especially places like 7 3 so it's same for everyone. So Anything we can help you with or you want to try Okay, guys, they always did high speed. Yep understood

Max VERSTAPPENAh, that first sector was completely ****ed.

Engineerso Kimi on the run down to turn nine he's obviously at speed so pull to the side let him through he's about two seconds behind you now he's coming through nice work

EngineerIf you want to pass through the pit lane for a flap adjust, we're ready.

Lewis HAMILTONDouble cool down, yeah?

EngineerAffirm So

Lewis HAMILTONjust the first sector?

EngineerAffirm, just turn 34 Both corners? Yeah, minimum speed both corners, 34 Maybe braking a little bit early for turn 3 And we need a bit of full throttle for PU temps

EngineerI think about the push toggle at turn 7 we'll test the push toggle at turn 7

EngineerSo you can wake the fronts up a little bit on the run to 15. Alex also finding time on his second push lap. What? Alex also finding time on his second push lap on this time.

EngineerOK, recharger on M, box, box and slam. Keep up the pace on the way in please Max. OK, can I have boost on, on the way to turn 6, boost on, full throttle.

Max VERSTAPPENI'll do it again to 9, is that OK?

EngineerYep, same again to turn 9 please. OK, box and slam please Max, stop on the marks, pre-start rev check, and switch off.

EngineerTrack is clear, you can push.

EngineerIt will be mode push for last corner, mode push.

EngineerSame wind direction, tail turn 15

Lando NORRISDid the wind change much for this run? You just need to give me a yes or a no, you don't need to tell me what direction or anything.

EngineerSame direction, different strengths, gusty.

EngineerYou can press select engine 4, engine 4.

EngineerAnd we need to improve turn 9, mid-corner turn 9, and turn 12, mid-corner turn 12.

Charles LECLERCCopy, but turn 9 isn't hit flat, maybe had a small lift.

EngineerJust because of that.

Carlos SAINZHow did the medium look?

EngineerSo Lando did a 27.02. I think that would have been two tenths ahead if you'd nailed the final corner Carlos, that's a 27.2. I'm not sure if that was unclear how I said it, 27.2 And the time, there's one tenth in 12.13 Lando is just a partial lift through 12

Carlos SAINZDownshift to 7th or in 8th?

EngineerBoth of you the same on the gears. Are we downshifts to 7th for 12?

EngineerSo here, purple sector 2 and 3, there's a tenth and a half to Leclerc in sector 1, with a lock up at 4, maybe a bit of time, exit of 6.

EngineerReference, you are currently P5-27-5.

Esteban OCONThere was too much on the steer for 15

EngineerCopy And

Esteban OCONslightly on the engine with the front end, low speed

EngineerCopy

Max VERSTAPPENQuestion, why do I have to sync my gears again?

EngineerI'll explain later, but please re-sync, well spotted.

Max VERSTAPPENYeah mate, I find this unbelievable, how can you be so bright?

EngineerVerstappen 20 behind pushing followed by Albon, Latifi and Gasly quite a few cars behind temperature looks good now temperature looks good Verstappen 14 behind followed by Albon 20 Verstappen 8 behind pushing Verstappen 8 behind pushing 7 behind pushing now Verstappen 4 behind 3 behind Verstappen behind

Max VERSTAPPENLet's

Engineersee

Max VERSTAPPENif you're coming. Yeah, I know mate. I'm not an idiot. I'm on the side of the truck

EngineerOkay, so in terms of sectors, sector one, we are four tenths off Verstappen. Most of that is a couple of tenths is turn four. Sector two, we are P3, two and four tenths lower than the Mercedes. And sector three, we are four tenths off Bottas.

EngineerHulkenberg faster in turn 3 using more apex kerb turn 3

EngineerSo maintain front temperature and cool rears.

Daniel RICCIARDOI don't know why the f*** he would have overtaken me if he's on high fuel.

EngineerSightings behind us out there. Got a lot of push in 7 and 15 as well actually. Copy, we'll have a look. Nico, we suggest if open for 6 and 7. So Nico, we are OK to let the temps drop more. The slower we go, the better the traffic will be. Nico, can you put ACS on, so ACS button on?

EngineerOkay, so we're going to drive in, stop in the pit box, and then do a start from the box and go straight out. So stop in the box, and then do a start from the pit box, drive straight out.

EngineerSo target on your dash for the rear is 85

EngineerTest right hand toggle turn 7. Right hand toggle turn 7.

EngineerSo once you tape the flag, then we'll get into a formation lap and just try and get the rear temps down as much as you can.

EngineerSo now just concentrate on target 95 on the rears.

EngineerThere's nothing left on the front left

EngineerAnd mode 3 for the start. Throttle application has race start until turn 4.

EngineerI guess Rooney will be happy He always is And let's take the CSL after turn 5 Gap to Kevin, OK for pit box practice? Yes, we'll be first car in OK
