EngineerOkay, we'll report it.

Lewis HAMILTONLet's

Engineergo

Lewis HAMILTONguys, this doesn't take too long, let's

Engineergo.

EngineerSlippery surface warning turned seven to eight could be gravel on track so just caution through that

EngineerAll right, let's have some more fun out there today.

EngineerAt the start of the race it will be tailwind into 9, but try to have a look around if you can see some flags of the formation.

Lewis HAMILTONI've got damage.

EngineerWe're ready for you in the box.

Lewis HAMILTONIs Max okay?

EngineerHe's out of the car.

Lewis HAMILTONI was ahead going in there, man.

EngineerYeah, copy Lewis.

Lewis HAMILTONFully alongside, it's my line.

EngineerYeah,

Lewis HAMILTONyou turned in on me, man.

EngineerYeah, copy that Lewis, yeah, just reviewed the video. You're giving the guy space.

Valtteri BOTTASI guess that was the racing incident or what? I guess no penalties.

EngineerWe haven't heard anything under investigation about it, but no news.

EngineerAnd we put that fan on the front right, cool the front right caliper to try and help you give your margin with that brake that's working better than the other side.

Pierre GASLYOkay, so headwind entry turn 15, so tailwind in turn 3, right, breaking turn 3

Charles LECLERCWhat is the safety car doing? Where are they going? Quicker!

Esteban OCONGet the vibration front left. Copy that.

EngineerI

Nikita MAZEPINsaid front locking is very bad.

EngineerI'm going

Nikita MAZEPINto give it some more shape.

EngineerCopy, copy.

EngineerSo we're probably going to need to push on now. So the situation has changed compared to this morning with this 10-second penalty.

EngineerIt's a

Lance STROLLbit understeer on the high speed.

Nicholas LATIFIIs the wind worse out of turn 7? Tracks is very poor

EngineerYes, the wind has picked up a bit 5 kph, 11 gusts

Lewis HAMILTONStill staying strategy?

EngineerAffirm Lewis

EngineerIt's

Carlos SAINZnot possible to pass.

EngineerWe are planning plan B or plan C for now, plan B or plan C.

EngineerAnd we are going to plan B, plan B.

Daniel RICCIARDOYeah, both axles just running a hot 60-40 reel.

EngineerJust keep doing what you're doing, it will come to you.

Kimi RAIKKONENIt's such a f***ing bad end of the tailwind, isn't

Engineerit,

Kimi RAIKKONENman?

EngineerIt's

Lewis HAMILTONhard to get this rear down man They're not stabilising

EngineerYeah they have stabilised Lewis, we're just waiting to get that drop

Charles LECLERCNo, the engine cut

EngineerThe

Charles LECLERCengine stopped It's going again. Tell me what's happening. You

Engineercan go ahead continue keep going

Charles LECLERCWhat was it? Let me know.

EngineerAnd we need driver default alpha 5 6 on. 5 6 on. Everything should be fine now.

EngineerSo Leclerc reporting engine cut, so maybe a lack of power, but we'll keep an eye on it We're happy to pick up the pace now We're happy to pick up the pace Yeah, what menu? It'll be menu dash position five, position five

Charles LECLERCAgain, again, there's a f***ing cut with the engine!

Engineerwe are trying to solve it, we think the reg should be fine

Carlos SAINZIt's just a dirty arrow, this guy.

Engineerso the problem seems solved now continue as normal Hamilton is starting to have some blisters

EngineerHamilton behind with DRS. Tyres are OK for plan B.

Charles LECLERCCopy.

Lewis HAMILTONYeah, blistering

Engineeron

Lewis HAMILTONboth sides, now pushing

EngineerCopy Lewis, some stops are starting to happen now

EngineerAnd Lando, I'd like 100% pace, please. 100% pace. Copy that.

Charles LECLERCI got the cut

Lance STROLLWell something happened check car Think it might have been the helicopter that came really low

EngineerGiovinazzi 1.4 in front, you are faster than him, let's get him

EngineerAnd Charles do not upshift if you have the engine cut do not upshift if engine cut

Fernando ALONSOOh problem

Carlos SAINZThe place is looking good for the moment.

EngineerUnderstood, let's try to extend, Bottas 7.5 behind.

EngineerAnd how many laps you can do at this pace? 32.0?

Charles LECLERCFor now I don't see any drop-off.

EngineerCopy.

EngineerOK Lando, so Hamilton still has that 10 second penalty, he's currently 28.6, he did 31.8 last time round.

EngineerSo rear left is the one to look after.

Lewis HAMILTONFront left is dead man

EngineerOkay, copy

EngineerAnd continue like this, you are doing a good job.

Pierre GASLYIt did not leave me any space.

EngineerNice work mate.

George RUSSELLCircling on a bit rear side for overheating now, just asking to manage

EngineerCopy, alright awesome, we'll manage for now, see if Tsunoda can put some pressure on Raikkonen

EngineerAnd Alonso has rear tire issues for Alonso

EngineerOk Lando, Bottas is blistering his front left a lot. He might come back towards us towards the end.

EngineerHold on Daniel, you're doing well, you're doing well.

EngineerBattery's good when you need it.

EngineerOk Kimi, watch your dash for the fuel, it is getting worse

EngineerWith

Valtteri BOTTASthis pace it's tough to make it to the end.

EngineerCopy the message.

Nikita MAZEPINCome on man, that's

Engineera

Nikita MAZEPINbit of a useless info for me. Leave me alone. I know how to do it

Lewis HAMILTONEnhance follow back for you

EngineerCopy

EngineerAnd team order, do not fight with Lewis.

EngineerOkay Valtteri, we invert the cars into turn 15 this lap.

EngineerSo especially we do have a problem. We're going to retire the car

EngineerOk Kimi, I know you're fighting with Sunoda, but the fuel situation is not getting any better, we need to do something about it.

EngineerThese guys are all on used hearts, you've got the tyre advantage.

EngineerPerez is fighting his way through the group behind, but they're still 10 seconds back.

EngineerLewis predicted to catch Leclerc before the end so just try to follow him

EngineerOkay mode race full push till the end

EngineerOkay, Yuki, let's use Perez to pass Raikkonen now.

EngineerGap to clear now, 5.0, that's another fastest lap And

Lewis HAMILTONlook at that, 30.8, yes

Engineeryou can mate

EngineerThere's a group of backmarkers that may interact towards the end of this race mate. Let's make the most of it

EngineerSeven laps to go keep doing your thing

Nikita MAZEPINMan, I'm pushing 100%, for f**k's sake, please help me, turn in yellow.

Lewis HAMILTONHe's picking up the pace, man.

Nikita MAZEPINMy legs, or my feet are burning.

EngineerCan

Nikita MAZEPINwe please look at doing something, because I really struggled then.

EngineerYeah, understood. So we did make a modification for this race that we hoped would help, but we need to look at something more then. Thank you.

EngineerSo Lewis when you finally get back here, yeah, you'll be coming in the pit lane. Just make sure you soak all that up on your way round.

EngineerThat's the checker, that's the checker. P17, Mick P18. Nice job mate, you put the laps in when you really needed to around the pit stop and that made the difference. Good job. That was

Nikita MAZEPINhard work mate. F***ing

Engineerhell.

Nikita MAZEPINNice, that was good. Let's keep working.

EngineerDo you want the finishing order?

Lando NORRISNah, it's all good. Yeah, good job everyone. I was a bit annoyed about the pin stop, but I don't think we might have been able to hold on. Anyway, good job. P4 is still a good result. Good points. Yeah, thank you everyone.

EngineerYeah, exactly. P4, good result. Well done.

EngineerWell done, Daniel. Well done, mate. P5. You had me tense, I tell you. That was really good. Well done.

EngineerCheckered flag, Juki. Checkered flag. P10. The other point was a good effort. Good effort.

Yuki TSUNODAI don't know why I'm in P10, but it was a good pace. It was more green there, always good, but it was really, really hard to follow. Like, really. But yeah, good job, guys. I think a different format. It was difficult for me to adapt, but yeah, in the end, able to get a point, so that was good. Thanks, Mattia, and good job, teams.

EngineerTo you, Juki. I think you did a good job today. It was very difficult to follow, and we had enough pace, so it was good. And you are in P10 because cars in front went out. So we just did a clean race, and we were there.

Yuki TSUNODAOK. I forgot, also Alex. Yeah.

EngineerYeah, all the team, everybody.

EngineerYes.
