Monaco Grand Prix2021 · Practice 1 team radio

EngineerAnd green light, so radio check pit exit. Ok. Ok, good to me too.

EngineerRadio check, Max.

Max VERSTAPPENYeah, radio check.

EngineerLoud and clear.

EngineerFive. Yeah copy at five, you were clearer at five, you've been quiet up until now, five is okay.

George RUSSELLCopy. Radio is still open. Six.

EngineerCopy six. Seven. Talk to me through the tunnel.

George RUSSELLIn the tunnel.

EngineerNow, can you hear me? One, two, three, tunnel. Copy copy. Go

George RUSSELLthrough the tunnel.

EngineerNorris is blocking me here Copy, so you go

EngineerOffset one-click reward for the next lap.

Charles LECLERCNo, what's happening with the engine guys? It's broken I think. I

Engineerwill

Charles LECLERCcome back to you. And box now box, box now box. I think the fourth gear is broken I think.

Engineerand Charles has a car issue, so his session is finished, Mazda pin 2 seconds behind anything that we are under risk of having or not? no, we are checking, for now we are fine

Nikita MAZEPINRicciardo within a second. I touched the wall on the right on the entry of the Kawano can you check if everything is okay?

Engineeryes we are checking Ricciardo close behind

Nicholas LATIFIWall top, front right. It was quite a big one, feels okay, but should I box just to check?

EngineerShould

Nicholas LATIFII box? Box, box, okay, box, box. I think it's okay, but better to be safe.

Engineerand looking compared to Lando it's all about the last couple of corners lap time difference is only half a tenth but you are ahead until the final two corners

George RUSSELLSalah pre-ballot Rearwoods.

EngineerEntry three mid three. Entry three mid three.

Engineeri just got blocked by the ferrari very firmly is on an owl up so you got lewis on a lap

Pierre GASLYYeah, I'm just lacking a bit of stability turn one and then the rest is not too bad a bit the traction a bit tricky Small like drivability. It's a bit poor like with the EB last corner when I started the lap The rest I would say is not too bad. I'm just sliding a bit like the grip is not great, but

EngineerJust building up to it. Okay, copy that box box box box

Lewis HAMILTONWhich corner is that, man?

EngineerIt's that swimming pool exit. Much easier just to refer to it like that. Yeah, no sweat.

Fernando ALONSOTouch the wall in the last corner

EngineerWatch out, front wing, front wing is on the floor Let's take it steady

EngineerVSC, VSC. Remember, if it's still VSC when you're close to the pit lane, we want to drive-thru. How much time is left? Maybe we should box, because the tires don't feel so good anymore, really. 35 minutes left. We could still do a push, if you think it's valuable. Let's see if it's still VSC and we can do the drive-thru.

EngineerNobody's stopped, I think it might be debris from Alonso's front wing, so charge your battery, we'll get ready to go on the next lap. Did you see anything on track there Max? OK, VSC deployed, VSC deployed. Yeah, just a tiny bit

Max VERSTAPPENof the wing, tiny bit.

EngineerOK, understood, well hopefully that can get cleared before we come around, so stay safe on your dash. Max, if the balance is in the window, stay out, if you think we need a little bit of work on the car then you can box, let us know though. OK, VSC ending, VSC ending, so recharge off, recharge off.

EngineerOk sorry, Russell GPS was a bit jumping up and down, position is ok

Nicholas LATIFIYeah, that double cool was really good for the tire. Box, box.

EngineerSo you're P7, faster slab 13.2 and peak complete, no threat behind.

EngineerYellow turn 1, Raikkonen is stopped, yellow turn 1, yellow turn 1 Ok, track is clear, he's moving

EngineerOk Kimi, we can't see any damage, all good, so we keep going So after Gasly there is a 20 second gap Ok copy Is it drivable or? Should be ok on our side but let's have a go So, mode charge please, mode charge My

Kimi RAIKKONENbattery is full so it's ok

Nicholas LATIFII'm happy with the ride. Copy. Copy. It will be shotgun around 7 minutes, so we stay as we are. Happy with Magball, yes or no? Copy. Box, box. Happy with what? Box, box. Box, box. Practice pit entry and stopping box engine off. I feel like I'm lacking rotation, slow speed, but I think it should be fine for the next tire, so we should leave it.

Lando NORRISI'm just understeering in all the high speed, I just need more front wing.

EngineerOkay, understood. Okay Lando, I'm just discussing now, if we did it, how much would you want?

Lando NORRISRight, two and a half.

EngineerTwo and a half, understood.

Lando NORRISI'll just, I'll go again, but four

Engineeror five corners, I just can't push. Yep, okay, understood, that's a good thing for the test we're doing. We'd like you to stay out if possible for at least one more time lap, then we can do it.

EngineerAll right, that's the wall. I'm gonna come

Carlos SAINZin just to check everything.

Pierre GASLYI don't know what's happening. Yellow, yellow where you are, yellow where you are. I saw, I saw, I

Engineersaw.

Pierre GASLYYeah, too much. I'm snapping always 6 and 18. Losing quite a lot of lap time, so we need to focus in these two places.

Nikita MAZEPINAnd honestly, the car, after I hit the wall, doesn't feel the same. OK. Not a big thing, but the rear left is not... Well, I'm not able to go faster anyway. Verstappen one second behind. Verstappen one behind.

EngineerLet's keep pushing mate, let's keep pushing. Really nice laps. Nope.

Nikita MAZEPINI have a problem with the car, I told you.

EngineerOk,

Sebastian VETTELtraffic again, we're past Mazepin

EngineerYeah, it's Mazepin So behind Mazepin is Latifi, who is high fuel You can do a cool and a push, but that will be eating into our high fuel But if you'd like to do it, we can Yeah, let's try it

Fernando ALONSOStill understeering. Slow

Engineerspeed. Let us know if you need a front wing adjust or you could try B-Bell 7 and Torque 1.

Fernando ALONSOI go for the torque and brake balance change.

EngineerOk, so torque 1, V-belt 7.

Max VERSTAPPENAh, this is completely s**t, the downshift.

EngineerOK, stand by.

Max VERSTAPPENJust give me back what I had.

Sergio PEREZIs he fast?

EngineerYes, Icon is fast.

Antonio GIOVINAZZIYes, I touch the wall.

EngineerDef, I speed 8. OK, we're checking, Antonio. You think you can continue, or...?

Antonio GIOVINAZZINo, I think I have a plan to.

EngineerOK, copy. Then box is left. Box, box.

EngineerOK, we need to box this lap, we have an issue, so steady on the way in.
