  40. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes10:57:040:23

    EngineerOK, so Valtteri, just with P1, just 0.04s ahead of your soft time. In terms of sectors, that medium tyre versus your hard tyre, it's 0.2 sector 1, 0.3 in the middle, 0.2 in the final sector.

  46. Carlos SAINZMcLaren11:02:060:11

    EngineerWe also had a split in front brake temperatures, which is why it pulled a bit braking for turn one. So brake temperatures are okay now, but keep temperature in the fronts.

  47. Daniel RICCIARDORenault11:03:070:16

    Daniel RICCIARDOSo pretty pretty similar comments to the previous run

    EngineerI think everyone's probably gonna be on a long run

  63. Lance STROLLRacing Point11:21:350:17

    Lance STROLLYes, they're raining. What can I do about this? Switches aren't going to help this.

    EngineerThat's all you'll have in the race, so torque five.

  64. Sebastian VETTELFerrari11:22:410:11

    EngineerWe have four time-lapse available, four time-lapse.

  68. Lance STROLLRacing Point11:25:330:09

    EngineerYou can use rears to rotate the car rears to rotate the car

  69. Lance STROLLRacing Point11:26:040:08

    EngineerYou run profiles very similar to other cars on the same tyre all suffering similar

  70. Valtteri BOTTASMercedes11:26:330:07

    EngineerThere's still risk of rain, so I'll just keep going on this

  71. Lance STROLLRacing Point11:26:520:09

    EngineerBoth McLarens, same tyre as you, same lap time as you

  72. George RUSSELLWilliams11:27:190:07

    EngineerStay and go race, push till exit 11, then call and box.

  73. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull11:27:470:11

    EngineerOkay, temperatures are still relevant so I think try to get a read for the pit lane entry It's going to be a practice pit stop so focus on your marks before you switch off

  74. Lando NORRISMcLaren11:27:480:08

    Lando NORRISSpitting a little bit more around the back.

    EngineerOK, understood.

  75. Esteban OCONRenault11:28:230:08

  79. Carlos SAINZMcLaren11:31:090:13

    EngineerWe're boxed to SLAP, boxed to SLAP. Looks

    Carlos SAINZlike the greening has cleared a bit now.

    EngineerCopy, we're boxed to SLAP anyway, it's the checkered flag, so boxed to SLAP.

  80. Daniil KVYATAlphaTauri11:31:540:05

    Daniil KVYATHere we are in the rain.

  81. Romain GROSJEANHaas11:32:000:05

    EngineerA reminder, CSL position 4 out of turn 11.

  82. Esteban OCONRenault11:32:240:07

    EngineerIf possible, could we have an aero P4 5th gear cruise, exit turn 11?

  83. Kevin MAGNUSSENHaas11:32:460:05

    EngineerBox now, Kevin, box now. Practice pit stop.

  84. Romain GROSJEANHaas11:34:020:12

  85. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull11:34:520:18

    Max VERSTAPPENNo, I'm boxing, this is not good.

    EngineerMax, I think just from a data point of view it would be good to stay out just for one more lap, understand if it's not optimal.

    Max VERSTAPPENNo, no, it's not optimal, it's bad mate, and it's raining, so I'm boxing.

  86. Lance STROLLRacing Point11:59:000:10
