Styrian Grand Prix2021 · Practice 1 team radio

EngineerSpeed limiter on.

Carlos SAINZUh, double check, I got a bit of throttle stuck.

Carlos SAINZBefore starting to push, I need to know if you see something.

EngineerWe don't see anything weird from the data. Ok. Do

Carlos SAINZyou feel anything or not? I felt definitely something into 2 and 1 pit exit.

EngineerYellow flag, yellow flag.

EngineerIt's good for me too, so let's focus on tires and brakes please.

EngineerAnd so just entry 7, mid 3, entry 7, mid 3.

EngineerEyes on the dash.

Esteban OCONThere's something moving around on the side of my seat

EngineerAnd suggestion to brake earlier turn 10, focus mid to exit

EngineerOk, that's a good lap here, that's a good lap, I'll keep you posted on the compares

Lando NORRISAnything you recommend with toys? I feel like I've got quite a bit of rear locking, but also for an end of stop. Yep, Mazipan 9, the car behind.

EngineerYes, green F4, green F4. Mazipan 4 now.

Engineerand

Lewis HAMILTONpace. So

Engineercurrently P2 1.2 to Verstappen.

Daniel RICCIARDOSo Daniel turn one looks good. It's a little bit to find braking later part of phase one braking for turn three

Yuki TSUNODACar balance looks neutral, I don't know yet, 26, 27, I didn't very much understand there, not

Engineerbad for there. Agreed, agreed, Latifi 3.5 pushing, Vettel is face to you now, and we go for a double cooldown, Yuki, double cooldown.

Yuki TSUNODAOkay.

EngineerCareful on rear.

EngineerSo Kubica two and a half seconds behind boxers lap So stay to the right of the white line boxers lap look out for Kubica. Maybe let him through up to you Yeah, nice work. Okay box. Keep up the pace quickly boxers lap Stop on the marks will fit the new front wing

Yuki TSUNODAMid exit, especially apex rotation, at slow speed corner, like turn 3, turn 4, fast speed corner is okay, enough rotation. Copy. How is the stability in the low speed? Stability in entry is okay, I think. But I feel a little bit of relocking in turn 3, initially. Copy.

EngineerOK, last lap, track limits, turn 10.

Max VERSTAPPENLovely!

EngineerThe last lap was deleted for track limits, turn 10.

Fernando ALONSOYeah, but I lost time, so the lap was good.

EngineerOK, no worries. Just letting you know where the limits are.

EngineerOK, recharge on. We're going to start our first sequence of aero cruisers. OK, there was a shortcut at turn 9, just so you know. So we're going to go for aero P4, 5th gear, after turn 3, please. Clear track behind. OK, that's good. And aero P6, 3rd gear, through 6 and 7. Aero P6, 3rd gear. You've got Sainz pushing behind. Three seconds back. Last lap time was not deleted. He puts you P5. Good job. OK, clear track behind. Aero P6, 3rd gear. That's 150 pph.

Yuki TSUNODAYeah, good traffic.

EngineerYeah, I saw that, Yuki. Turn 6 and 7 were better this lap. He's understeering the low speed still too much.

Yuki TSUNODANo, I think at turn 3 I don't recommend Pultogo there because I have a massive whoosh out from late entry to

Engineerthe apex. Poppy, cancel Pultogo, cancel Pultogo. Is

Yuki TSUNODAthere any other option to avoid the rear lock in turn 3?

EngineerSainz is pushing behind 3 seconds. OK, Yuki, we start the lap in offset 4 and then we go offset 2 after turn 3. And no Pultogo turn 3. Are you still understeer limited in the low speed?

Yuki TSUNODAI think it's OK.

EngineerPoppy, Gasly did 6.6. We go for one more push.

Carlos SAINZYeah, all good. Yes, the car was stuck in focusing control.

EngineerOkay, good job and boxes that please we will be stopping no more adjusts box our box now

EngineerGuys, let's get on with the plan. Now we lose time with the pit start and everything. We do a pit start, quick in, and then we can catch up in the turnaround. We're ready to change the bodywork.

Carlos SAINZOkay.

EngineerOK, Max, just hold the K1 again to engage the CURS turbo.

Nikita MAZEPINI am in first gear and I've done it already, I need to go back to neutral. OK, don't do it again then, don't do it again.

EngineerAnd feedback on DRS. On the main straight, you're about 8 metres late. Everywhere else is good.

Fernando ALONSOYeah, without the Ferrari on the penultimate corner. Okay, but yeah, we understand like hell

EngineerOkay, and that's it so

Fernando ALONSOwill we do a slowdown laps, okay,

Engineerno problem

EngineerSo turn four, there is still scope in braking, higher peak brake pressure and later brake point. The turn in you're doing to four still looks good though. Watch

Daniel RICCIARDOfor cubic out.

EngineerI get traffic every last sector Copy understood. So next car pushing behind Mazepin four seconds and Behind Mazepin will be Ricciardo also pushing at seven seconds. So at the moment you are P6 P6 Watch for traffic with Ricciardo. He's pushing behind him. There's a gap of six seconds and Hamilton is P1 you were matching Hamilton until last corner Sorry matching Hamilton until turn eight Everyone behind you on an out lap or slow lap and we have tailwind into turn one 10 kph and you can press select engine six engine six and brake balance plus two for turn three only and We should try to improve minimum speed Turn four mid corner turn four You

EngineerMain loss to Max is Turn 1 braking. He did a 1.05.9

EngineerSebastian, we're thinking of going through the pit lane, it will help with the traffic, go through the pit lane this time?

Sebastian VETTELCopy, Bucks.

EngineerAny flap adjust, or okay with flap?

Sebastian VETTELWe could do a little bit more, but I had traffic, so we can do a quarter more, I'll stop. Okay, you're gonna stop?

EngineerCould have engine 9 position 3, engine 9 position 3.

Max VERSTAPPENYeah, we got this guy yet same

Engineercar

Sergio PEREZYeah, I lost the fronts towards the end of the lap.

Carlos SAINZIn our box, the front is pushing away.

Pierre GASLYCarlos is a f*****g, he's f*****g blind, thinks he's alone, yeah, honestly I cannot f*****g believe him, I let him pass, like what's the point to do such a thing?

EngineerOkay, so this is likely to be our cleanest lap. I think I wouldn't be surprised if people go on to high fuel and start coming out shortly.

EngineerStraight to the run. Hey, Finn.

EngineerOK, how is the balance? Clear track behind Hamilton, coming past now.

Esteban OCONVery similar issues, a lot more front end, the low speed than the high speed.

EngineerBut

Esteban OCONthe high speed not.

Engineerand you could also go up on low speed if you wanted additional support there. So we're going to do the next lap in Scenario 9 as well, Ricciardo seven seconds behind, again likely high fuel so he'll be pushing.

EngineerSonar is coming behind, 5 seconds He is on high fuel

Yuki TSUNODALet me know how many laps we can do

Engineer14.14

EngineerAnd Lando Minor, White Default 6-7, White Default 6-7

Lando NORRISYeah, confirmed

EngineerFace is looking good.

EngineerPress and hold the battery while you can, battery is full

George RUSSELLDo you need to tell me traffic?

EngineerCopy that, sorry. Norris, sorry. And then Nicholas and Hamilton in sync with you.

EngineerGap, 1.1, minor, white, H10, position 3, white, H10, position 3.

EngineerAre you front or rear limited, Yuki?

Yuki TSUNODATraction, both.

EngineerAnd Lewis, let us know if you want to box for the hard tyre warm-up or just stick with this tyre, do a bit more of a longer run?

Lewis HAMILTONWhatever's needed, man.

EngineerOK, copy Lewis, we think more data on this medium will be better for us.

EngineerYoki, let's push one step more in high speed and keep doing with spin management, one step more high speed. Russell 08 behind, we can use overtake to defend.

EngineerNo DRS please. Well

George RUSSELLI'm within one second. I'm not going to be able to do that with no DRS. I'll try and overtake him.

Max VERSTAPPENWhat's the gap I have behind?

Engineer4 seconds, Strat 8

Max VERSTAPPENFelt like I had a massive push in that corner

EngineerOK, understood, we'll have a look at it, you've got Alonso 2 seconds behind, don't hold him out

Antonio GIOVINAZZIWhat both of us

Engineeris

Antonio GIOVINAZZIdoing?

EngineerMax's last lap of 109.7, how are the tyres?

Sergio PEREZThey're on the hot side, I need to manage well a bit to bring them back on.

EngineerAnd Lando, last three laps were all deleted, turn 10.

Lando NORRISYeah, yeah, yeah, that's right.

George RUSSELLI feel really odd, second to fourth gear, really strange.

EngineerCopy, that's the blue nine setting. I

George RUSSELLknow, I just did it.

Yuki TSUNODAGive me the feedback to avoid a relock.

EngineerOffset 6, Offset 6.

Yuki TSUNODAYeah, front is okay, but the rear traction is gone

EngineerBox, box, box, box, box, box. Fighting Kubica Pitek.

EngineerThen five seconds to Alonso, three, two,

Robert KUBICAone.

Nikita MAZEPINCopy copy. I'm not getting eighth. I think the sock was a bit too much

EngineerOK Esteban, cool the car, cool the car, that's the chequered flag, so cool the car please, scenario 3 and practice formation lap procedures, scenario 3, practice formation lap procedures.

Esteban OCONHow can I cool the car and do that?

EngineerLong lifts off into turn 3 and 4 please, lots of lift and coast if you can.

EngineerOkay, recharge on and formation lap driving. We're staying out for the launch. Drive like the formation lap as much as possible.

EngineerYeah, it was a night, but I have engine to hold. Yeah, copy. So, cool the engine then. High gear, low revs. OK, he's not a big problem, don't worry. He will cool down on the in-lap.

Pierre GASLYMod 6 Ok, was a mess Yeah, copy that Mod

Engineer6

Pierre GASLYI think one day one of the Ferrari mechanics is going to lose his leg in 40 or so

EngineerYeah, it's happened far too many times
