Mexico City Grand Prix 2021: Practice 3 team radio

Every message, in the order it happened

1. Yuki TSUNODAAlphaTauri17:05:50

   Engineer: Truck is clear behind, synchronize all the gears and good braking application, brand new brakes all around.

2. Yuki TSUNODAAlphaTauri17:06:44

   Yuki TSUNODA: The oil is so slippery.

   Engineer: Copy.

3. Lance STROLLAston Martin17:09:21

   Lance STROLL: So much oscillation on the limiter, we have to fix that.

   Engineer: Yeah, copy that.

4. George RUSSELLWilliams17:11:05

   George RUSSELL: Airplugs are not improved from my side.

   Engineer: OK copy that, so your radio is clear to us, just give us another radio check on the way round.

   George RUSSELL: I can still understand you but it's pretty distorted.

5. Yuki TSUNODAAlphaTauri17:13:21

   Engineer: So, Yuki, respect to yesterday, main loss section between turn 4 and turn 6, and in the high speed, but I guess you were careful in the first push lap.

   Yuki TSUNODA: No, just the oil is a lot, oil is a lot.

   Engineer: Understood, understood. Don't take any risk.

6. Yuki TSUNODAAlphaTauri17:14:30

   Engineer: Charge off and push.

7. Lance STROLLAston Martin17:15:23

   Engineer: Go one, go one, stay out, stay out, go one.

8. George RUSSELLWilliams17:15:44

   Engineer: OK George, we need to build front temperature so you can use DRS to turn 4 and to turn 12.

9. George RUSSELLWilliams17:16:56

   Engineer: OK George, next car back is Stroll, he's 13 back so no concerns on traffic. Snowda's now on a 19.7 so track is improving, so let's just go push at turn 16.

10. Yuki TSUNODAAlphaTauri17:17:52

    Yuki TSUNODA: Check engine 9, because I mistakenly touched it.

    Engineer: Copy.

11. Carlos SAINZFerrari17:20:08

    Engineer: And wind is less than yesterday, bar rotated, so headwind turn 1, braking turn 1, headwind, and tailwind turn 4, braking turn 4.

12. Carlos SAINZFerrari17:21:02

    Carlos SAINZ: Yeah, nice script.

13. George RUSSELLWilliams17:23:09

    George RUSSELL: Advise on brake balance please, I feel a bit of a split on the fronts I'm loosing the fronts, please advise ASAP

    Engineer: OK, nudge her plus one, nudge her plus one

14. Sebastian VETTELAston Martin17:24:20

    Engineer: Turn 456 You can lean on the rears a bit in the high speed.

15. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes17:25:36

    Lewis HAMILTON: lost a lot of time in 10 copy

16. Lando NORRISMcLaren17:27:28

    Engineer: Okay, and a reminder, shifting and brake pressure application.

17. Sergio PEREZRed Bull17:27:34

    Engineer: There

    Sergio PEREZ: was a bit of chattering. There was a bit of chattering on the front tires in the high speed.

18. Lance STROLLAston Martin17:29:13

    Engineer: So let's focus on our tyres and brakes now.

19. Sebastian VETTELAston Martin17:30:30

    Engineer: So just so you know, Sebastian, the brake temps were a bit cool for Turn 1 on that last lap, in case you felt it. Yeah, I know.

20. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull17:33:46

    Engineer: That's pretty P1, didn't look like the cleanest of laps but that's 4 tenths to Checo in P2. Yeah sectors look good. Sector 2, half seconds Checo, final sector a match. That was quite scrappy.

21. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull17:35:01

    Engineer: Do you want any tool adjusts for the next lap, Max?

    Max VERSTAPPEN: No, it seemed quite OK, just on entry to some corners and a little bit on the edge, but let's see in another lap.

    Engineer: OK, understood.

22. Lance STROLLAston Martin17:35:46

    Engineer: Clear behind, let's focus on cooling the car and box box for a start.

23. Daniel RICCIARDOMcLaren17:37:34

    Daniel RICCIARDO: Just turn 3, just got quite a bit more of the apex settle up. Just double check the car when I come in front right.

    Engineer: Copy.

24. Daniel RICCIARDOMcLaren17:39:16

    Daniel RICCIARDO: Turn 3, just got quite a bit more of the apex sat-lap, just double check the car when I come in front right.

25. Charles LECLERCFerrari17:43:33

    Engineer: And for us you can push next lap?

    Charles LECLERC: Yep, I want to push next lap though. If you want we can do the pass through now, just to cool down the tyres as they are pretty hot.

26. Lando NORRISMcLaren17:46:34

    Lando NORRIS: Any particular reason I locked up or just too much brake pressure? Too

    Engineer: much brake pressure.

27. Carlos SAINZFerrari17:46:59

    Carlos SAINZ: You're only struggling high speed there, is this ok?

    Engineer: Understood

28. Yuki TSUNODAAlphaTauri17:48:29

    Engineer: Yuki, I think we need to adjust the flap, do you agree? It's too much understeer in turn 1.

    Yuki TSUNODA: I don't want to go back because it's just s**t tire.

    Engineer: Copy, we stay out.

29. Nikita MAZEPINHaas17:50:57

    Engineer: OK, charge on, charge on. No traffic threat from behind.

30. Valtteri BOTTASMercedes17:52:35

    Engineer: It's a traffic paradise.

31. Daniel RICCIARDOMcLaren17:55:00

    Engineer: Watch for Perez Perez close now apologies. That was late.

    Daniel RICCIARDO: That's okay. I got it

32. Lance STROLLAston Martin17:55:30

    Engineer: So we can work on turn 8 and 9 a bit, we need a bit more pace there.

33. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes17:56:56

    Engineer: So P3 at the moment it's six and a half tenths at Perez at P1.

    Lewis HAMILTON: Six and a half tenths.

34. Pierre GASLYAlphaTauri17:57:21

    Pierre GASLY: For f***s sake, don't need to

    Engineer: be

    Pierre GASLY: all smart ass, everybody don't care, we can fight.

35. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull17:57:37

    Max VERSTAPPEN: Yeah, it's so weird, like no grip at all.

36. Valtteri BOTTASMercedes17:59:11

    Engineer: Correction, so lift and coasting to turn 1, 80 meters.

37. Yuki TSUNODAAlphaTauri18:00:24

    Yuki TSUNODA: Man, I don't know what the guy in front of me is thinking.

38. Yuki TSUNODAAlphaTauri18:01:15
