12. Kevin MAGNUSSENHaas14:14:07

    Engineer: Did you say, Romain, 28.1? 28.1, yeah. I'll take the other tyre. But I think that the pace delta is a big to this tyre for us. I don't think we'll be able to get that kind of time out of that other tyre.

13. Valtteri BOTTASMercedes14:15:58

    Engineer: So it will be close to the last outlap just don't drop too much the pace

    Daniil KVYAT: I think something on the floor broke.

16. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes14:19:52

    Engineer: Okay, Kevin. Sorry, dude. So that's 17. It's 0.4 behind P16. Roman got through on 27.5, so about 0.7 quicker. He's P13, so he got through.

    Pierre GASLY: Yeah, just don't want to ruin them if we use them in T3

    Engineer: Yeah but you can't be too slow, ok multi-beat 2, safety car position 2, stay negative Multi-beat 2, safety car position 2, stay negative

20. Alexander ALBONRed Bull14:28:03

    Carlos SAINZ: Yeah,

    Engineer: I

    Carlos SAINZ: didn't have much more guys. I don't know, but not much more than this.
