Portuguese Grand Prix2020 · Practice 1 team radio

EngineerI'll go mode 3 and a rev check please mode 3 and a rev check

Carlos SAINZYeah, I need the energy on the dice

EngineerNo problem. I'm just going to keep talking to you through turn 15-16 because this is potentially a weak spot for the radio. I just want to confirm the radio is okay through here

EngineerI'm pushing the hill up, and constant speed 200 kph out of 4, 200 kph out of 4, position 3, 5th gear.

Carlos SAINZYeah, create one of the little green areas.

Daniil KVYATYeah okay, and the visor, is it clear or not? Because it's too bright.

EngineerWe'll let Noel know. Box, box.

EngineerSuggest green shape 4 to stabilise entry. Green shape 4 and keep pushing. You are P1, purple all sectors.

EngineerAnd Carlos, your last lap was deleted. Track limits turn four.

Carlos SAINZThis is Tokyo Drift, it's incredible!

EngineerOkay Carl, so it does look low grip on the other cars that are out. Lando reported low grip. Your last cooldown lap was deleted for Turn 1 limits.

EngineerOkay, let's have mode one and recharge on please max. Road one recharge on

EngineerCarlos, suggest blue bell 7 for the next lap. Suggest blue bell 7 to try and get more rear stability. Push the limitation towards the front.

EngineerYou can continue to push this lat max.

Max VERSTAPPENWait, the swing of that is completely wrong. Second drift car.

EngineerEngine 13, engine 1-3, position 5, when you can.

EngineerOK, Kimi, you can go to mode race when you're ready.

EngineerFor info, track limits exceeded at turn 1 that last time around.

Max VERSTAPPENMe or who?

EngineerYou exceeded limits at turn 1 at that last lap. Sainz has had the same issue, also at turn 4.

Max VERSTAPPENBut I was still with two wheels on the kerb.

EngineerYou need to have four wheels within the track edge, which is the white line.

EngineerWhat do you think about the tyres? Yeah, they're not even near ready. OK, let's go sustainable then, so we'll leave it in mode 6 and we'll do continuous push laps now. Continuous push laps.

EngineerOk Kimi, we need multi-air mod position 8 and pedal 10 Again, next time

Kimi RAIKKONENyou tell me earlier, before the last corner, so I can tell you

EngineerOk, copy, no problem

EngineerTires still very cold, suggesting stay Strat 12 and on the prep lap.

George RUSSELLMate, the tyre grip, it's incredibly slippery!

Alexander ALBONOkay, can we do a cool? Yeah, I'm guessing cold raining

EngineerAfter this, do you want to go for a single push or multiple laps again? A single push. OK, so we'll go to mode 1 please, mode 1.

EngineerOk Lou, so just try and keep the pace up to keep the surface temp high.

Lance STROLLToo close to the current front. He gives a high fuel.

EngineerMagnussen behind pushing and Vettel behind him pushing. You won't get a better gap. There will not be a better gap.

EngineerAnd Lando, if we want to keep doing continuous laps, we need Scenario 10. Scenario 10.

EngineerAnd we need to warm up the tires when you can, weaving when you can, or come behind.

EngineerTry to keep temperature on your tires push pit entry and stop in box pull away

Pierre GASLYYeah, lost it left corner

EngineerCopy that, we need to charge down on the line and we have one more push Your previous lap was deleted for track limit turn 4 Previous lap was deleted I was touching now So we have a good margin behind us on traffic, we have a good gap behind us And we have one more push up, one more push and then we box

EngineerSo check we've got two more laps two more laps we think keep pushing keep pushing

Engineeryou'll get two more timed from now two more timed including the one you're starting

EngineerLap time was deleted for loop infringements.

Esteban OCONWhich corner? Turn

Engineer1 Esteban, turn 1. Sainz 2 seconds behind.

EngineerWe can have one more push for timings if you need, you can do one more push and then box One more push available if you need, please tell me

Pierre GASLYYeah, but I have the force in the air and so... I'm bored, the group is so low

EngineerOkay, so just reminder this next lap you can push but it is your in lap. So recharge off now, please and you are good to go

Engineerbox this lap maintain pace on the way in we need to keep the pace up on the way in

EngineerYou can stop on the marks, stop on the marks and then keep the engine running and we'll do the anti-stall test. So stop on the marks, hold your foot on the brakes and then release the clutch for anti-stall test.

EngineerDo you still want to go ahead with the front to adjust, as discussed? Oh, it seems OK. OK, if we don't do then, yeah, copy.

EngineerAnd push the end of the hot lap, push the end of the hot lap with 10 degrees shy, brakes are coming good.

EngineerI'm gonna push for another lap, we keep pushing

Kimi RAIKKONENSo, how do we go?

EngineerYou

Kimi RAIKKONENhave to be way earlier Mod push, yeah, copy

EngineerNo,

Kimi RAIKKONENyou're still way too close

EngineerAnd Carlos SOC 4, SOC 4 for Push Cool Push.

Carlos SAINZYeah, not sure if I'm going to do a Push Cool Push yet.

Sebastian VETTELOk. Tires are not ready yet.

EngineerUnderstood.

EngineerI'd try and stay in front of him, he wasn't very helpful before.

EngineerOK boys, can you tell me what's going on? OK, we'll have a look once for Perez, 4 behind on a push Yeah, I'm doing my best OK, we'll have a look, Perez 2 behind pushing, we'll charge this lap Yeah, is he pushing or slowing down? Just finished a push, may start another one, 2 seconds back

EngineerLet's have SOC 7, Carlos, because SOC is not quite full. SOC 7.

Daniil KVYATYeah, I need to cool down because I feel like I'm gonna grain my tires. They don't look very good already

EngineerOkay, so it will be straight out. I suggest working the tires straight away

EngineerOkay, Vettel behind, two seconds. Do you want to go through the pits or to go now?

Kimi RAIKKONENNo,

Engineerwe don't need, we don't need. Vettel behind.

EngineerOk, we have the rear brake cycle planning all the time. Yes, yes, we are on the hot spot. Ricciardo behind, 2 seconds pushing.

Lando NORRISSpitting a little bit.

EngineerThere's nothing on the radar, so we don't expect anything heavier

Charles LECLERCI am sorry, it's very bad that we exit here, we can't see anything. Pushing behind us.

Lance STROLLSomeone's dropping oil on the circuit.

EngineerApparently blocking people is not a problem, so... Yeah, we saw it in 14.

EngineerOK, recharge on, maybe target plus 5, and you can go mode 1.

EngineerOkay, so Ricardo ahead may have backed off a bit got no threats behind battery is good Ricardo now five ahead. So just recharge off and you're good to go. Try position is good

EngineerAnd Carlos, your cool-down lap before this one, or slow lap before this one, was deleted. Lap time, turn four. And Carlos, your cool-down lap...

EngineerVerstappen and then push again. So you're clear six seconds behind with Bottas. Just take a gap from Verstappen. So Lance take eight.

Esteban OCONYeah, how was the C2? Because it seems to me that the tyres are not really working, it's never really coming together.

EngineerS1, we've given the opportunity not to bother with the heavy fuel if we think low fuel running would be a benefit.

Engineerfail three fail and we'll go for that gear four engine ramp after turn four please no cars behind you so gear four engine ramp recharge off for the ramp please okay so recharge on please recharge on and we'll get ready for another lap uh we'll go fail three fail please fail three fail and we'll go for that gear four and we'll go fail three fail please fail three fail and we'll go for that gear four engine ramp after turn four please no cars behind you so gear four engine ramp recharge off for the ramp please

EngineerSector times, 3.5 tenths to Bottas in sector 1, 4 tenths in sector 2 and 3 tenths in sector 3, so fairly equally split. And 14 is a large loss to Leclerc.

EngineerBox, box, we have an issue on the car. Box, box, we have an issue on the car.

Alexander ALBONThe car is just so unstable at low speed.

Max VERSTAPPENYeah, all the time he's blocking, oh blocking, he's just holding me up in the last two corners, and then he boxes, so yeah, I don't get it.

EngineerOkay, copy.

EngineerI'm mode 12, so recharge off, mode 12, I'll go potter on please, potter on.

EngineerThe wind has picked up now, Checo. It's about a 10 kph tailwind into 3.

Engineerwill be go one will be go one tires are a bit cool for this first lap check it's gonna be nine time laps this run nine time laps

EngineerSo currently the wind is showing a very very calm tailwind into turn one

EngineerKeep an eye on the front left other people have greening

EngineerDon't please don't use DRS and just push as hard as you can from the start Bearing in mind, I appreciate the balance issues you've got

Lewis HAMILTONThat's great.

EngineerCopy.

EngineerIt's also the other car reporting the graining.

Engineersome signs of front left graining particularly on the medium tires so just take care turn seven turn ten for example

EngineerBe

Romain GROSJEANcareful on the braking zone not to talk

Charles LECLERCMotors keep slowing down and go again.

EngineerCopy understood.

EngineerBox, Esteban, box, box, box. There's a problem with the car. Don't change gear. Don't change gear.
