22 radio messages were recorded during practice 2 at the Tuscan Grand Prix 2020, across 12 drivers. 21 of them have a transcript; the rest are audio only. Daniel RICCIARDO had the most, with 5.

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.

The session, message by message

  1. Carlos SAINZMcLaren14:07:440:07

    EngineerOkay Carlos, I know the tyre feels awful. You are two tenths off Ricciardo, other cars are on C2.

  2. Daniel RICCIARDORenault14:11:180:03

    Audio only, no transcript

  3. Daniel RICCIARDORenault14:11:310:08

    Daniel RICCIARDOBalance isn't too bad. I made a couple mistakes, but balance isn't too bad.

  4. Lance STROLLRacing Point14:18:440:12

    Lance STROLLThere's a car in front of me. Yeah, you started too close to the car. Yeah,

    EngineerI

    Lance STROLLknow, but I couldn't see him, Brad. I didn't see him at the exit. I thought he went for it.

  5. Esteban OCONRenault14:20:090:10

    EngineerNice lap Esteban, 19.0 P5, huge gain in sector 1 there, also better sector 2 and sector 3.

  6. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes14:29:300:30

    EngineerWe

    Lewis HAMILTONgoing again?

    EngineerIt's up to you, if you want to take one more lap on this tyre, or we can put that onto the soft. Yeah, I'll go again. OK, copy. You've got a clear track at the moment, only three cars out there. Apex. Turn two and three

    Lewis HAMILTONstill down.

    EngineerMainly turn three.

    Lewis HAMILTONSo we had that improvement in two, yeah?

    EngineerYeah, small improvement in two, still a little bit of speed to find there. Turn ten better? Turn ten better, a little bit of a compromise for turn eleven now, need to find a bit more exit turn one. All right, let's go for turn eleven.

  7. Alexander ALBONRed Bull14:48:430:08

    EngineerIt's really hard to sync 8th gear. Yeah, understood.

  8. Carlos SAINZMcLaren14:51:030:11

    EngineerCarlos, do you want to try less front wing?

    Carlos SAINZYeah, no rear support for me. But I'm not going to improve with less front wing anyway. So up to you.

  9. Kimi RAIKKONENAlfa Romeo14:55:490:23

    EngineerI don't know what the f**k they are

    Kimi RAIKKONENdoing The Mercedes is

    Engineerstill

    Kimi RAIKKONENvery slow in this Yeah,

    Engineerstand by Perez is out lap Ahead of you Yeah, he's ok, but the other one Hamilton was on a slow charge lap Yeah,

    Kimi RAIKKONENbut I can still move out of the way

  10. Sergio PEREZRacing Point14:57:300:11

    EngineerWas that too fast, lap 1? Confirmed, lap 1 was a bit too fast. First lap you were 1.2 faster than Lance, second lap 0.3 faster.

  11. Daniel RICCIARDORenault15:01:070:11

    EngineerOkay, and how are the tires and how's the balance little

    Daniel RICCIARDOlittle bit more rear management, but it's pretty consistent for now

  12. Sebastian VETTELFerrari15:03:160:11

    EngineerAre you okay?

    Sebastian VETTELYeah, I'm fine. Let's

    Engineersee

    Sebastian VETTELif the tires are still okay.

    EngineerOkay. Stay out. Should

    Sebastian VETTELbe okay.

  13. Daniel RICCIARDORenault15:05:180:08

    Daniel RICCIARDOStill a bit more re-attack, but front as well is taking a little hit. Phase 3.

  14. Pierre GASLYAlphaTauri15:06:250:09

    EngineerOkay, it looks like the people are a bit faster on option now, Renault is in the high 23 low 24

  15. Daniel RICCIARDORenault15:07:170:11

    Daniel RICCIARDOI feel I'm in a little bit of a limbo with the car ahead. I probably can't get that much closer without hurting tyres.

  16. Kevin MAGNUSSENHaas15:07:430:06

    EngineerStart managing rear left in turn six and eight.

  17. Esteban OCONRenault15:08:180:11

    EngineerOK Esteban, surface temps very high through 8 and 9, consider some management there, and the snaps in 12 were hurting a little bit.

  18. George RUSSELLWilliams15:09:230:16

    George RUSSELLStruggling a little with the rear left Exit of 1, exit of 3 I'm through the high speed But the front's fading away as well, very tricky

  19. Pierre GASLYAlphaTauri15:10:090:08

    Pierre GASLYWhat do you want me to do keep

    Engineerpushing keep pushing we are close to the window

  20. Pierre GASLYAlphaTauri15:14:480:20

    Pierre GASLYWhen I brake, I have a problem in the chicane, like the car is, as soon as I turn, it's like I have no rear wing on the turn in, so, in turn 4, 5, all the time I brake, it's like the car is pulling massively, 3 degrees of steering, it's like I'm on ice.

  21. Alexander ALBONRed Bull15:23:250:13

    EngineerOk Alex, if things are stabilising this tyre we will pit and fit the medium so you can keep pushing on this lap if you're happy and you've got a feeling for this we'll change to the other tyres, let us know.

    Alexander ALBONOK

  22. Sebastian VETTELFerrari15:34:451:07

    EngineerOK, the engine stopped. I'll try to power cycle the car if that's OK for you. Can you hear me? Stand by. Stand by. OK, you can do or try a power cycle. I'll try a power cycle. P1 now. The car was in P1. It said also engine stop. Understood. But the dash doesn't react. Trying to go to P2. Yeah, but the trouble also is that I hit the neutral button on the cockpit so that I could roll and don't stop in the middle of the corner. So maybe that's why. Does it cut the electronics when you press the neutral button? Yes, it does. Do I still have the tool in the cockpit to take it out? No. I used to have it. Not anymore. OK, well that's it then. Understood.
