Eifel Grand Prix 2020: Race team radio

161 radio messages were recorded during race at the Eifel Grand Prix 2020, across 20 drivers. 157 of them have a transcript; the rest are audio only. Lando NORRIS had the most, with 21.

These are transcripts of real team radio audio, produced by speech recognition and presented as an archive rather than as edited prose. Radio is clipped and noisy, so wording can be imperfect. Each message is attributed to the driver or their engineer, and the original audio is playable in the archive.

Who was on the radio

Every message, in the order it happened

  1. Daniil KVYATAlphaTauri

    Engineer: And we stop for a practice start, try to start where you stop

  2. Carlos SAINZMcLaren

    Engineer: And radio check entry to turn 5?

    Carlos SAINZ: Yep, all good.

    Engineer: Copy, that's land clear. Radio still open.

  3. Pierre GASLYAlphaTauri

    Engineer: We need to pick up the pace for timings, keep the pace up for timings please

    Engineer: Clutch position 1% shallow

  5. Sergio PEREZRacing Point

    Engineer: Something

    Sergio PEREZ: broke on the right hand side of the seat.

  6. Alexander ALBONRed Bull

    Engineer: And box, Alex, box through the pit lane. How is front wing?

    Alexander ALBON: It feels very sharp.

    Engineer: OK, we'll do another lap like this and we'll think about it for the third lap. So box this lap, please, and drive straight through. OK, so drive through, please. We'll go to display 5, position 10. When you can, please, display 5, position 10 to help the sharpness.

  7. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull

    Max VERSTAPPEN: My visor is not mounted properly, I'm having so much air in my helmet, so we need to change that after.

    Engineer: OK, copy.

  8. Lando NORRISMcLaren

    Engineer: so feedback on your start target plus one throttle is still a bit low drive out okay and just a comment for your reference front tire temperatures we think are on the low side

  9. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes

    Engineer: There's a

    Lewis HAMILTON: lot of movement in my steering wheel.

    Engineer: Were

    Lewis HAMILTON: you not able to fix my steering wheel last night?

    Engineer: Negative loose, didn't get permission for that.

  10. Valtteri BOTTASMercedes

    Engineer: And cool the car now, and let us know if you need a flap adjust, the other car is going plus 2.

    Valtteri BOTTAS: Negative, flap is OK for now.

    Engineer: Copy, so box box for another start in a bit lane.

  11. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull

    Engineer: Could I have display two, position three, please? Display two, position three.

  12. Nico HULKENBERGRacing Point

    Nico HULKENBERG: I think we should consider another descent rearwoods for first lap and

    Engineer: brake balance for me.

  13. Alexander ALBONRed Bull

    Engineer: OK, on mode 12 please, mode 12, and round to the grid.

    Alexander ALBON: We had a really weird start on the last one.

    Engineer: Understood, we are looking into it. OK, so when you get round to the back of the grid, obviously pull over to one side, and we're already in mode 12, and we'll do a rev check please, a rev check.

  14. Kimi RAIKKONENAlfa Romeo

    Engineer: And remember, full switch off procedure.

  15. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull

    Engineer: To the grid now max, please so make your way to the grid

  16. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes

    Lewis HAMILTON: The tires in the window and Marcus just checked the MIG 1 and MIG 52 and it was a bit real looking.

  17. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes

    Engineer: Yeah, yeah, so times were low all three laps there out the window and yes, I agree 52 beaming one There was some rear under rotation Yep, yeah Like it breaks away he's in the second phase A From Lewis. I think if we stick to our target it has the correct margin in there. But yes That grip should be comparable on our position

  18. Valtteri BOTTASMercedes

    Engineer: Clutch position on target and strat one to charge the pack

  19. Valtteri BOTTASMercedes

    Engineer: So down to first and then to neutral and switch off in P2 with full off the brakes

  20. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes

    Lewis HAMILTON: It's not as cold as yesterday, right?

    Engineer: To be honest, it's very similar. We've just got a bit of sun at the moment, but that's going to disappear pretty quickly. It's difficult

    Lewis HAMILTON: to predict, but I definitely felt that the front was sliding a lot just there. Not a lot of grip.

    Engineer: Yeah, I think that's going to be pretty much all down to temperature. We've seen a lot of pinches and also some rear underrotation, so yeah, once we've got a bit of surface temp in there, I think the grip will come to you. I

    Lewis HAMILTON: feel like with the understeer like I just had and what I had yesterday, you're

    Engineer: just

    Lewis HAMILTON: slow because you're waiting for the car to turn and it just doesn't turn, so I'm eager to keep winging.

  21. Daniel RICCIARDORenault

    Daniel RICCIARDO: Radio check.

    Engineer: Yes, that's loud and clear for me, no real change in conditions, still quite low wind, track temperature going up and down with cloud coverage.

  22. Carlos SAINZMcLaren

    Engineer: Tire information, so the medium starters are Vettel, Gasly, Kvyat and Grosjean. All the other cars with a free choice are on Newsoft.

  23. Daniel RICCIARDORenault

    Engineer: Alright mate, let's put on a show, keep everybody entertained and warm. I

    Daniel RICCIARDO: got you, let's go boys.

  41. Alexander ALBONRed Bull

    Engineer: Update status, update status when you can please.

    Alexander ALBON: 6, but I'm managing with this vibration, I can't go much quicker or else I'm going to kill the tyre.

    Engineer: Yeah I understood, thank you.

  42. Carlos SAINZMcLaren

    Engineer: Carlos there could be a very small light shower in around five minutes very small very light

  43. Carlos SAINZMcLaren

    Carlos SAINZ: Shall I try to pass Hocken or save tyres?

    Engineer: Carlos, don't compromise plan A at the moment.

    Carlos SAINZ: Yeah, that's the plan, but I give up a lot of time.

    Engineer: So Albon's pitting. He's pitting on a medium tyre. We're not quite sure why he's pitted so early.

  44. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull

    Engineer: Okay, Strat 10, position 2 please. Strat 10, position 2. You might notice some drops at times, first appearing at turn 11, Max.

  45. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes

    Engineer: So we think this rain is two to three minutes away, expected to arrive turns 10-11.

  46. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull

    Engineer: So at the moment we are expecting this to be just a few spots of rain max, not really to wet the track but obviously anything can happen so keep your eyes peeled.

  47. Sebastian VETTELFerrari

    Engineer: can push a bit more 4.5 4.5

  48. Lando NORRISMcLaren

    Sebastian VETTEL: Okay, we need to box the tiles are flat spotted.

    Engineer: Copy.

  52. Daniel RICCIARDORenault

    Engineer: Okay, just seeing that front right drop a bit in temperature So let's keep looking after the front right, please

  53. Lando NORRISMcLaren

    Engineer: Lando, this light rain could last 10 minutes, we still think plan A.

  54. Lando NORRISMcLaren

    Lando NORRIS: Yeah, confirm. I

    Engineer: think just some graining on the front. And Lando, front right is as expected. And blue B5, suggest blue B5.

  55. Valtteri BOTTASMercedes

    Valtteri BOTTAS: I think we need to box for a big passport.

  56. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes

    Engineer: just be careful with that front locking and see what it can do

  57. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes

    Engineer: So Valtteri in the pit lane to change that tyre set, with Verstappen 3.7 behind, update us on the tyres. We've got a yellow, yellow, yellow, yellow.

  58. Lando NORRISMcLaren

    George RUSSELL: gave him plenty of space. Plenty of, plenty of space.

  60. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull

    Max VERSTAPPEN: Raining a bit heavier, last sector, last of the corners.

  61. Alexander ALBONRed Bull

    Engineer: Okay reports of heavier rain turn 13, 14, 15. Just watch for more drops of rain 13, 14, 15. So we do think these drops will stop soon but it may be a little bit heavier last sector now. Doesn't look like it's affecting pace.

  62. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes

    Engineer: And just be careful with that front tyre condition, it goes very quickly.

  63. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull

    Engineer: VSC is ending Max, VSC ending, so look out.

  64. Alexander ALBONRed Bull

    Engineer: Okay, nice job mate, good restart there. You can think about the pull toggle to turn one.

  65. Valtteri BOTTASMercedes

    Valtteri BOTTAS: I have no power, no power.

    Engineer: It's

    Valtteri BOTTAS: like a lymphoma or something.

  71. Carlos SAINZMcLaren

    Engineer: Front right temperature is still coming up after the VSC Carlos. Front right temperature still coming up.

  72. Daniil KVYATAlphaTauri

    Daniil KVYAT: This guy is such a idiot. Did he get paid for that?

  73. Lando NORRISMcLaren

    Engineer: And Lando, this pace is really good, let's keep it up, Perez plus two.

  74. Antonio GIOVINAZZIAlfa Romeo

    Engineer: So compared to Kimi, we're losing braking turn 2, 5 and 6, Kimi is about 2 tenths quicker. He's still slightly pulling away from Vetter, good job so far.

  75. Daniel RICCIARDORenault

    Daniel RICCIARDO: You happy with low 32s?

    Engineer: Affirm, affirm.

  76. Alexander ALBONRed Bull

  85. Lando NORRISMcLaren

    Lando NORRIS: I'm losing power. Something's happening. I've lost power.

    Engineer: Okay, we're looking now.

    Lando NORRIS: Viability is terrible. No deployment. It's getting worse.

    Engineer: Okay, Lando. We see a sensor issue. We see a sensor issue. Keep going.

  86. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes

    Audio only, no transcript available for this message.

  87. Lando NORRISMcLaren

    Engineer: And default 0-3, default 0-3.

    Lando NORRIS: Confirmed, 90 better.

  88. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes

    Engineer: Still

    Lewis HAMILTON: a little bit of understeer in this setup. Must be one more.

    Engineer: Okay copy. Gap to Verstappen at 4.2

  89. Charles LECLERCFerrari

    Engineer: Can you go faster, question?

    Charles LECLERC: A little bit, but not like crazy.

    Engineer: Copy.

  90. Lando NORRISMcLaren

    Lando NORRIS: Am I boxing or what?

    Engineer: Multi H7 position 6, Multi H7 position 6, let's keep going for now

    Lando NORRIS: But Perez is boxed, what am I going to do against that?

    Engineer: Perez is still behind, Perez plus 1.5

    Lando NORRIS: My bad, must be going blind

  91. Lando NORRISMcLaren

    Engineer: And Lando focus for us now is Gasly currently plus 21.6

  92. Romain GROSJEANHaas

    Engineer: We are thinking of a variation on plan B, variation on plan B.

  93. Romain GROSJEANHaas

    Romain GROSJEAN: Ok, think and I'll draw fast.

  94. Lando NORRISMcLaren

    Lando NORRIS: It's getting worse. A big loss of power now. I've got no power at all.

    Engineer: OK, we're checking. Keep going. And default 0-3. Default 0-3.

    Lando NORRIS: It's still bad.

  95. Lando NORRISMcLaren

    Engineer: Launch map, launch map. You'll be racing cars, use ****** careful turn 1 tyres.

  96. Kevin MAGNUSSENHaas

    Engineer: Okay Kevin, no more blues for a while. Let's just get back in the groove. We'll get the front temp back up a bit. The rears are still okay. We'll get back to those 32.9s.

  97. Lando NORRISMcLaren

    Engineer: And Lando, default 0-3, default 0-3, we might need to keep using that all race Yeah

    Lando NORRIS: but he's not doing anything!

    Engineer: And Lando, you're doing a good job in the corners, we see pace is good, you can do this, we'll just have to manage it

  98. Sebastian VETTELFerrari

    Engineer: Hamilton 1.4 behind, flashing blues 1.4 behind

  99. Lando NORRISMcLaren

    Engineer: Okay Lando this is not great but we need default 0-3 on every straight, we can do this we can manage it, pace is still good. I can't hear a thing,

    Lando NORRIS: say it again.

    Engineer: Okay we need default 0-3 on each straight, default 0-3 on each straight, your pace is good we're still matching Givinazzi, he's P8.

    Lando NORRIS: What do you mean on each straight?

    Engineer: So do default 0-3 whenever you can, so now default 0-3 start finish straight default 0-3.

  100. Romain GROSJEANHaas

    Engineer: Nice work mate, nice work. We got track limits turn 4 lap before though, but nice job on the overtake

    Romain GROSJEAN: Okay, either I need to see an optician or they have got an issue with the sensor

    Engineer: We can go BC4, BC4 just to build a bit of rear temp early Okay, dude, we've got black and white flag for turn limits again, track for turn 4

    Romain GROSJEAN: Okay, I wasn't, I wasn't I wasn't, that is for sure

    Engineer: Understood mate, we're in a really good place. Let's just take some margin there. This is really good

  101. Charles LECLERCFerrari

    Engineer: We'll fight with Kimi and Sebastian. Box now, box!

  102. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes

    Engineer: We're thinking we'd go back to SOP. Let us know what you're thinking. I

    Lewis HAMILTON: think you might be right.

  103. Lando NORRISMcLaren

    Engineer: We need default zero three after every corner default zero three. Yeah, thank you do that Okay,

    Lando NORRIS: I know

  104. Nico HULKENBERGRacing Point

    Engineer: So do not look after right front, it's cooling down so we don't need to look after it. We do or we don't need to look after it? We don't, we don't because it's going too cold so we need to push right front, push right front.

  105. Nico HULKENBERGRacing Point

    Engineer: So do not look after right front, it's cooling down so we don't need to look after it. We do or we don't need to look after it? We don't, we don't, because it's going too cold so we need to push right front, push right front.

  106. Sergio PEREZRacing Point

    Engineer: Check out yellow 11 fuel position 7 yellow 11 fuel position 7

  107. Romain GROSJEANHaas

    Engineer: How is the balance? Yeah,

    Romain GROSJEAN: it's okay. Yeah, it's okay. It's just that I lost some grip from the beginning. But it's okay. The only really thing I need you to check is that turn one. Turn four, sorry, on the onboard. Because I'm losing loads of time for being so careful.

  108. Carlos SAINZMcLaren

    Engineer: I

    Carlos SAINZ: guess we need to decide whether to stay with Perez or try and manage our turns a bit.

    Engineer: Carlos, priority one is to get to the end. Priority one is to get to the end.

  109. Sebastian VETTELFerrari

    Sebastian VETTEL: I don't have much runs left. Not sure we'll make it to the end.

  110. Nicholas LATIFIWilliams

    Engineer: OK, Niki, we're happy for you to push more in turn 2, 5 and 10. Turn 2, 5 and 10.

  111. Lando NORRISMcLaren

    Lando NORRIS: Okay, no one comes, this is needed.

  112. Daniel RICCIARDORenault

    Engineer: What is your status? Watch front left in turn 11.

    Daniel RICCIARDO: 9

  113. Sebastian VETTELFerrari

    Engineer: Got behind got Kimi 1.6 behind with the penalty and Grosjean right behind Kimi

  114. Sergio PEREZRacing Point

    Audio only, no transcript available for this message.

  115. Sergio PEREZRacing Point

    Engineer: So you're still catching Ricciardo about 7 tenths a lap. Catching Ricciardo 7 tenths a lap. Currently your pace is fastest with Hamilton. So you and Hamilton, same pace.

  116. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes

    Engineer: So, yeah, unsure of Verstappen's plan, but we've got the gap to manage it, Lewis.

  117. Lando NORRISMcLaren

    Engineer: For f***s

    Lando NORRIS: sake.

  118. Daniel RICCIARDORenault

    Engineer: Safety guard, box, box, box, box, box, box, box! Box?

    Daniel RICCIARDO: Yup, box, box.

    Engineer: Okay, we're going two, two... You need to be soft. Soft, two clicks up.

  119. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull

    Max VERSTAPPEN: I think we've got some new rubber

  120. Lando NORRISMcLaren

    Lando NORRIS: Anti stall, anti stall, something's happened. I've lost power steering. I can't, I'm out.

    Engineer: OK, understood. F***

    Lando NORRIS: sake please. OK

    Engineer: Lander, just remember to switch the car off, P1 5 seconds, P0 and keep your helmet and gloves on. You did really well managing everything, obviously that's where it is.

  121. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes

    Lewis HAMILTON: Need to tell the car to speed up.

    Engineer: Copy Lewis, I think this is going to take a while to get the cars to bunch.

  122. Charles LECLERCFerrari

    Charles LECLERC: Can I overtake or not?

    Engineer: Not yet, no. I will let you know.

  123. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes

    Lewis HAMILTON: It's unsafe for him to go this slow for us guys with these tyres.

    Engineer: OK copy, we'll feed that back.

  124. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull

    Max VERSTAPPEN: The safety car can't be out for long Nate, because the tyres are getting so cold.

    Engineer: Yeah, copy, similar comments from Hamilton as well.

  125. Nico HULKENBERGRacing Point

    Engineer: do everything you can for tyre temp and brake temp you'll never have too much

  126. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull

    Engineer: You can expect the lap cars to come through now. That's 10 cars in total. You stay online.

  127. Pierre GASLYAlphaTauri

    Engineer: Ok Pierre, stay in touch with Grosjean, there is a chance they bring the safety car before we catch the queue, so stay in touch with Grosjean.

  128. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull

    Engineer: Top five are in a train, so Sainz is at turn two behind you. The rest are led by Leclerc at turn seven. Kibiat backing that train up. He's still on the run down to turn seven.

  129. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull

    Max VERSTAPPEN: The safety guard can't stay out of the other lane mate, the tyres are way too cold. The others have much more benefit then.

  130. Carlos SAINZMcLaren

    Engineer: Keep warming the fronts, Carlos. When we do restart, we suggest blue bell 5. When we do know we're restarting, we suggest blue bell 5 to help in the first corners with front locking. Correction, blue bell 4, Carlos. Blue bell 5 you're in now is good while behind the safety car. Blue bell 4 for the restart. And then you just need the recharge button.

  131. Carlos SAINZMcLaren

    Engineer: Okay Carlos, so the car immediately behind you is Leclerc, 13 lap old, medium. Car behind him is Grosjean, 20 lap old, hard.

  132. Kevin MAGNUSSENHaas

    Engineer: Okay, let's go to BC3, BC3, and you can use mode race start, and then back to mode push. Safety car in this lap, safety car in this lap.

  133. Nicholas LATIFIWilliams

    Engineer: And go attack please, go attack!

  134. Carlos SAINZMcLaren

    Engineer: Launch map on launch map on we start with it now

  135. Pierre GASLYAlphaTauri

    Engineer: Yeah, we are looking at it. Standby.

  136. Kimi RAIKKONENAlfa Romeo

    Engineer: DRS enabled, 9 laps to go, everything is possible

  137. Carlos SAINZMcLaren

    Carlos SAINZ: Yeah these guys have more pace on me.

    Engineer: Carlos your P5 this is good, this position is good we don't need to pass those cars in front.

  138. Romain GROSJEANHaas

    Engineer: Kevin is close behind Gio, let's try and build a gap on them while he's distracted

  139. Charles LECLERCFerrari

    Engineer: Gap to whole camera behind 1.0. Whole camera behind with DRS.

  140. Nico HULKENBERGRacing Point

    Engineer: Brake earlier turn 13 for the snap. I

    Nico HULKENBERG: don't hear you. You're too quiet.

    Engineer: Brake earlier turn 13 for the snap.
