EngineerSo we think the front left is low by five

George RUSSELLShould we just commit to a prep? I mean these tires are too cold. Where's Mike in it?

EngineerHe's within six. I think we're gonna get compromised either way with a prep

George RUSSELLYeah, of course Set mode

Engineerfive then mode five

EngineerRed flag MAX, dash positive, dash positive, dash positive, and box.

EngineerRed flag, red flag, follow the reference, box, box, stay positive, plus.

EngineerThere was some clutch noise when I pulled out. OK, copy that, we'll just have a quick look, nothing concerning so far, so I think we're about 4 or 5 from the front, so we're in an ideal spot. And temps are all good.

EngineerCharge on as soon as you can on the line. Good job. Ok, next lap, consider the toe goal instead of offset for turn 11. And back to minus 1.

EngineerCancel the handbrake, or rather, cancel red button, cancel red button.

Esteban OCONHave a look maybe at turn 10 braking, what we could do.

EngineerI

Esteban OCONfeel a bit of under-rotation and a brake, but a bit of movement and a brake.

EngineerUnderstood, we will have a look.

EngineerCars on hard look a bit slower than the cars on soft. So the fastest hard is Gasly, 1.12.7.

Daniel RICCIARDOYeah, I think I'm happy to box. I'm not sure what we're

Engineergoing

Daniel RICCIARDOto get out of this moving forward. So I'm happy to focus on the other compounds.

EngineerCopy. Happy to box. Box this lap.

EngineerIf you're happy we can box now?

Fernando ALONSOI don't know, you tell me. I was hoping for more laps.

EngineerYeah, lost a bit of time with that red flag unfortunately.

EngineerOkay, so we suggest you could go half a percent forwards, brake by, it's for turn 9 and 10 only, so you need to do that on the adjusters, and reminder for yellow modifier as well. Perez, 7 seconds back, he's pushing this lap. Okay, we can afford to slow up front, temps are plus 5 currently, reminder we're going for 0, we can go to brake 2 when you're ready.

EngineerAnd if you can pre-select engine 6. By point? Yes, by point and engine 6, target 1 red. I'm

Charles LECLERCgoing to crash I think with this thing, but I will try.

EngineerSo turn 7 entry speed now is close to maximum Mazepin pushing behind. We are still margin in turn 8 and turn 9 we can brake 5 meters later

Engineerand tyre 6, tyre 6 when you can.

EngineerOkay, can you go mode slow? Mode slow. If you can do CSL 5, you have Gasly behind. And then it's double yellow up here for Nikita. Double yellow.

EngineerThe tyres are in a pretty good window. Nice and positive on the brakes on this outlap.

EngineerIt's

Pierre GASLYso cold at IS, I don't know what to do.

EngineerWe think it should be fine, we think it's no problem, we have issues with the front, should be fine.

EngineerWatch out for Schumacher behind, he's running sustainably.

EngineerYeah, I did a mistake in this again. Yeah, I saw the correction there.

EngineerYou push to turn 3 please, Max from Pitt out. Push to turn 3.

EngineerBottas fifth lap on soft a 15.6 that was after a 21

EngineerSo currently front left and rear left equally high

EngineerSo the stop and space 15-1, main losses 10-2, 10-10, 10-11, 12, or around 10th, 10th and a half.

Esteban OCONI'll run on a few stones, have a look at tyre pressures.

EngineerUnderstood, we'll have a look. Just watch turn 7, the front left is getting a bit of a hard time through there.

Engineerand blue harvest seven blue harvest seven test red button before turn seven red button before turn seven Daniel let's box this lap box this lap to get clear air

EngineerSo two and a half minutes remaining, no management anymore, no management and mode raise, mode raise.

EngineerAnd they're happy to experiment with red button, red button.

Esteban OCONCopy, also worth looking at my brake, my throttle pedal, I think it's gone a bit soft in this session.

EngineerCopy that, we'll have a look at that afterwards.

EngineerSo Daniel this will be a bite point find one burnout and a first gear launch left hand side preferred So bite point find one burnout first gear launch left hand side preferred
