Every message, in the order it happened
Engineer: Got an offset
Nikita MAZEPIN: to the right.
Engineer: Copy.
Engineer: And remember this set of brakes is new, you will need a bit of temperature please.
Yuki TSUNODA: High speed is quite on edge, it's okay, high speed we can keep this, slow speed we're lacking in rotation, in mid part especially.
Engineer: Copy that.
Engineer: So
Carlos SAINZ: the track is slow I guess. Yeah,
Engineer: QME3 tends slower compared to yesterday.
Engineer: And out of turn one we have tailwind and you felt the snaps probably because of that
Carlos SAINZ: Yeah, these brakes are a bit bad.
Engineer: Understood.
Yuki TSUNODA: Still, I feel not enough stability in high-speed corner in entry to mid. Still, I feel quite instability like yesterday.
Lewis HAMILTON: There's a pin in my right tyre.
Nicholas LATIFI: The left hand side mirror is cracked
Engineer: Copy
Engineer: You happy with the flap angle for now?
Sergio PEREZ: No, I think I would like an adjustment. We can go down three clicks
George RUSSELL: Yeah, I'm struggling a lot with the rear at the moment, Visi turn 5 is a problem, give a revert on the change we did overnight.
Engineer: Some time to gain in turn 4. Everywhere, everywhere. Instead of 7, yep.
Engineer: OK mate, how's the balance so far?
Fernando ALONSO: Yeah, a bit on the understeering side.
Engineer: So Daniel, there's a little bit of time in braking for turn 12.
Engineer: and we have Tywin into turn two
Charles LECLERC: Yeah, and Xavi, please, out of turn 2, you are telling it to me in the middle of
Engineer: the
Charles LECLERC: straight. It's impossible for me to do it.
Engineer: Copy and understood.
Charles LECLERC: Xavi, for the constant speed, it's actually me who is stupid. I don't know the corner numbers, sorry.
Engineer: No problem, no problem. Box now, box.
Engineer: And just for info, you have the diff magic still engaged.
Engineer: We think for this track temperature a single cool-down lap will be okay. We'll just have to manage PU temperatures, so some full load where possible.
Engineer: Are you okay, Mick?
Mick SCHUMACHER: Uh... I'm okay.
Mick SCHUMACHER: I'm very sorry about that. I know what it means. I'm sorry.
Engineer: Okay.
Valtteri BOTTAS: Is he ok, we went off?
Engineer: Yes, he is ok, he is out of the car and walking.
Engineer: I wish you'll have enough time to push with the double-cradle.
Lance STROLL: Someone hit my front, my rear, it's an Alfa
Engineer: Is the car okay Lance?
Lance STROLL: I think so yeah, just check pressures, very light tap
Engineer: Pressure's all good, pressure's all good
Charles LECLERC: Tires are quite done anyway so...
Engineer: Copy, we have one more time-lapse.
Engineer: So we want to get lost a lot of the last quarter copy
Nicholas LATIFI: last corner
