Every message, in the order it happened
Engineer: Good warm-up come tires and brakes as in breaks
Engineer: So nice and positive on the brakes, let's get a good feel for the balance.
Engineer: Fairly neutral wind at turn three.
Engineer: Okay, let us know if you need any flap adjust at any point.
Fernando ALONSO: No, all okay.
Engineer: Copy that.
Engineer: Ok, understood, and we will drive through the pilling again, we will drive through the pilling again, please confirm
Lando NORRIS: Yeah, confirm
Engineer: Brake balance plus one. Here
George RUSSELL: we go in lap, the pack is depleting.
Engineer: We'll go in at exit eight, go in lap at exit eight.
Engineer: Okay, Daniel recharge on and call the car please
George RUSSELL: The drink tube again feels very difficult to, uh, to suck.
Engineer: Okay George, copy that understood. So, cool the car now, stay and go in-lat, and you are going to the grid.
George RUSSELL: The drinks tube seems fine again now, so I don't know if we'll get stuck with some ice or something from a drink. Copy that.
Engineer: Your brakes are good and remember to go to the grid Okay, you can taking over So to the grid remember we are on the right-hand side P16 when you stop the car don't go to P0 go to P1 All okay? Yeah all fine
Lewis HAMILTON: What do you think with wing?
Engineer: To be honest I think we're good yeah I agree to your assessment I won't want to put any more in it if anything down half but that's about it. Yeah I think
Lewis HAMILTON: we should just stay where we are.
Engineer: OK copy yeah, plenty of scope on diff high speed remember.
Lando NORRIS: That landed straight up my balls.
Engineer: I was deciding whether or not to ask if they're okay or not
Nikita MAZEPIN: Let's really have a look at the temperatures inside the pedals after the race because it's already getting quite hot
Engineer: All
Fernando ALONSO: right, buddy, let's have 71 of those beautiful laps, okay? Got some points.
Engineer: Let's keep this going.
Fernando ALONSO: Yeah, it's our lucky day, I feel it.
Lando NORRIS: He forced me off.
Engineer: Mode 7, Mode 7.
Charles LECLERC: Front right, the wing on the front right.
Engineer: Okay, copy.
Engineer: F***ing hell, what's happened? Who the f*** is
Pierre GASLY: this thing?
Engineer: Yeah, we can see the rear left. Ok, let's box. Straight 10, straight 10. Box, box. What speed can I go? I got hit from everywhere. It's ok like that, it's ok like that. Diff is completely locked. Ok Pierre, anything can happen, we keep the head down. Mode 7 please, mode 7.
Lewis HAMILTON: Ah, someone hit my front right tyre, someone heavy came off his car.
Engineer: OK copy, we're monitoring pressures, looks OK at the moment. Got hit, big hit.
Engineer: Takara head science is medium, Reichen and behind is on hard
Engineer: Possible debris turn eight. Track looks okay though.
Daniel RICCIARDO: Okay, understood.
Engineer: Gap 1.7
Lando NORRIS: There was a lot of debris, so keep it out of fire pressure.
Engineer: Okay, understood.
Charles LECLERC: Tell me taste relative to the rest of the rescues.
Engineer: Try to stay out of tow for brakes, stay out of tow for brakes
Engineer: suggest yellow g3 yellow g3 yeah i'd
Lando NORRIS: say not according to race test at the moment but maybe message
Engineer: understood you should have broken drs cancel that perez has drs he has it
Audio only, no transcript available for this message.
Engineer: And we had track limits, turn 9, last lap. Track limits, turn 9.
Engineer: And last lap you're 110 quicker than Stroll ahead surface temps out of one three and four are creeping up a bit
Engineer: Oh, I got low
Daniel RICCIARDO: power, low power.
Engineer: Copy. We think it's recovered. We think it's recovered.
Engineer: Go defend to fill the pack let's go defend gap at 1.2 behind
Engineer: Okay, we've got to focus on getting the brake temps down and the tire temps where we want them and then we'll talk again Understood just for the increasing front locking you could try shape for it's up to you
Audio only, no transcript available for this message.
Engineer: Okay, nice move.
Lewis HAMILTON: Okay, place I can prove
Engineer: Standby the main areas breaking turn three breaking turn four
Engineer: Tire temps have now stabilized, rear left is still on the hot side, so keep watching that.
Fernando ALONSO: Yeah, I don't know what else to do for the oversteer.
Engineer: So Perez two seconds ahead just close the gap, but don't take anything out of the tires
Engineer: The
Nikita MAZEPIN: rears are starting to go.
Engineer: Okay, let's focus on those entry lifts and exit management.
Engineer: Gap 2.8, same lap time.
Engineer: We're getting closer on Alonso, we'll get the DRS soon.
George RUSSELL: Right, I'm flying alright.
Engineer: And Verstappen at 9.6, gap at 2.9, and if you can give us a balance check when you can.
Lewis HAMILTON: Balance OK, all rear end.
Engineer: Ok, how are the tyres and what's your status?
Fernando ALONSO: Status 5 because they oversteered. I hope they cool down a little bit and we pick up performance later.
Engineer: Ok, understood. Temperatures are coming down at the moment.
Engineer: Okay Daniel, P6 is Stroll. He's only 7.4 seconds ahead and his last lap was a 1.11.6. That's a long-winded way of saying this is still on mate, this is still on.
Engineer: Okay, George, we need to convert to plan B for reliability. So let's pick up the pace.
Engineer: Okay Daniel, P6 is Stroll. He's only 7.4 seconds ahead and his last lap was a 1.11.6. That's a long-winded way of saying this is still on, mate. This is still on.
Daniel RICCIARDO: Okay, I got you.
George RUSSELL: Copy that, happy.
Engineer: And we can upgrade the overtake if you need.
Lewis HAMILTON: They've been struggling a little bit.
Max VERSTAPPEN: I'll call it, but it's got to drive now.
Carlos SAINZ: I feel a bit stuck on here, there are
Engineer: a
Carlos SAINZ: few gravel strides, but we have more pace.
Engineer: Copy that.
Lance STROLL: It's not stabilizing temperatures.
Engineer: So you're stronger than Luis in low speed.
Engineer: OK Lando, how are the tyres and how far past the target can you go?
Lando NORRIS: I mean it's quite consistent, I'm quite comfortable so I feel like I can go a long way at this rate.
Fernando ALONSO: Any update on the target lock I'm happy to extend as long as there are no threats
Engineer: Okay, we're at least on target. We're at least on target yet
Engineer: OK, your last lap at 9.5, Hamilton at 9.8, gap at 4.6.
Engineer: You're gaining hand over face there
Lewis HAMILTON: Can't match that time man
Engineer: Okay, copy just keep doing what you're doing
Engineer: Okay Checo, so Bottas is closing in. We're considering our options.
Engineer: Safety car and VSC window open. Safety car and VSC windows both open.
Engineer: We need to make this tire go long to make this work, but that pace was good.
Engineer: I box and slap. Box, box.
Engineer: It's
Lewis HAMILTON: time to get slow vibrations.
Lewis HAMILTON: Blue flags.
Max VERSTAPPEN: The wind makes it difficult.
Engineer: Sebastian, keep pulling the right hand side of the car.
Sebastian VETTEL: They are just hot. The tyres are just hot.
Engineer: Yeah, copy that.
Engineer: So everything you got, strap 5.
Engineer: Wind looked calmer that time. Yeah, I nearly feel it in the car. Copy.
George RUSSELL: Brian give me a thumbs up when they put it in gear because the orange light is always on
Engineer: Give
George RUSSELL: me a thumbs up or tell me something when they put it in gear
Lance STROLL: No more tires push push push
Engineer: Box and pit confirm please Max. Box, pit confirm.
Engineer: Strat 12 in pit lane, Strat 12 in pit lane
Engineer: Strat 8, Strat 8, Torque 9, Torque 9, Hamilton turn 10
Engineer: So this is all about who makes it to the end but 42 laps remain
Engineer: OK, you are clear, so let's bring these tyres in nicely, first couple of laps will be a long stint.
Engineer: Let
Lewis HAMILTON: me know if I push too much
Max VERSTAPPEN: VBW, pull there, quickly.
Engineer: We're looking into it, Max.
Engineer: it's hard tire Lance hard time yeah
Lance STROLL: well I'm not locking up so it's okay anyways thank you for reminding me and I'll see you soon
George RUSSELL: I keep getting a blue flag alarm on my desk
Audio only, no transcript available for this message.
George RUSSELL: I keep getting
Engineer: Blue flag Hamilton blue flag Hamilton
Lewis HAMILTON: Got a lot of d-rays everywhere
Engineer: Stay until we are left in coast, it will help the tyres. We are left in particulars still building.
Engineer: These will be the critical laps for the stint. These are the critical laps for the stint.
Engineer: How many laps do you think you can sustain at this pace, or at the bottom? Well, at
Carlos SAINZ: least five, for sure. Understood.
Engineer: Yuki, we need a 9.9, you need a 10.1, thank
Yuki TSUNODA: you. Where are the signs?
Engineer: Signs will be side by side to us now.
Engineer: And we need lift and coast for brake temps when you can.
Charles LECLERC: I'm trying as much as I can.
Engineer: Understood, you are doing a good job.
Engineer: So Max, expect Hamilton to push. We're fine for the moment. Are we comfortable with the plan? Seemed like we had better degradation at the end of that last in as well.
Lewis HAMILTON: Do I need to manage more?
Engineer: Lewis, we're thinking the other direction, let's try and close that gap down
Engineer: Once
Sebastian VETTEL: the pace of cars ahead pretty much where we are at the moment
Daniel RICCIARDO: Every time I get close, I just hurt the tyres.
Engineer: Understood. Do you think it is possible?
Daniel RICCIARDO: No.
Engineer: Copy.
Engineer: Box to overtake Raikkonen. Box to overtake Raikkonen. Understood.
Daniel RICCIARDO: He's boxing.
Lewis HAMILTON: How do I reset my dash? Delta.
Engineer: Standby. And it looks if you go chassis default 0-0 that will reset your dash. Chassis 0-0.
Engineer: Ok Mads, Mick is 2.2 behind, let's focus on exit speed, turn 1 Please
Nikita MAZEPIN: let me just do my job It's either we stay in front or...
Engineer: Raikkonen last lap was a 10.5 if you can gap him we're good
Engineer: Okay, Yuki, let's push one step more on tyres. We are good on tyres. We need to cover for signs. Push, push. Mate,
Yuki TSUNODA: I am!
Engineer: I
Yuki TSUNODA: can't pushing more because there is a lot of people. A lot of dirty air. Copy.
Daniel RICCIARDO: Bring the exit earlier in turn seven. Hard power earlier turn seven. Okay, yeah, rears. Rears are stopping me from doing that.
Engineer: Copy.
Kimi RAIKKONEN: I think he took my front wing.
Engineer: F***
Kimi RAIKKONEN: me, I think he took my front wing. Just f***ing turned. F***, he didn't keep his line.
Engineer: And go back to socket, I'll let you know.
Engineer: OK, enjoy the free air for a while.
Lewis HAMILTON: How much are we losing on the straights today?
Engineer: So from free air running looks like two and a half tenths in straight line
Engineer: You're one second a lap quicker than Nikita you're doing similar lap time to Alonso and Tsunoda
Engineer: And in our race, the car behind is now Sainz, 12.4, who stopped three laps ago.
Valtteri BOTTAS: Just trying to bring the tires back to their temperature that bushing level there was unnecessary. I cooked the tires
Engineer: Gap is at 6.2. Let's hold it there Hamilton last lap 8.8
Engineer: This is f***ing
Yuki TSUNODA: dangerous. He moved into the braking zone.
Engineer: Copy, we're ready next.
Engineer: And the life prediction from Charles was ample on the hard. Ample. The tires are good. We took Charles a tire off the hard and we are good to go to the end. Easy.
Nikita MAZEPIN: The Rio Tais are in a pretty bad place.
Engineer: I'm having
Lewis HAMILTON: to push so much.
Engineer: OK, Luce, it's all about getting to the end now, so 20 laps remaining.
Max VERSTAPPEN: Brake pedal again!
Engineer: Ok, understood Matt. So we think that's related to the kerbs at turn 9-10.
Max VERSTAPPEN: Like we never take any care man, what the f*** is that?
Engineer: Let's just not take any undue risk here Max. I'll
Max VERSTAPPEN: try to take care there, but it's really random what happens.
Engineer: Yep, understood.
Fernando ALONSO: Please, the distance with the stroll, every sector.
Engineer: OK, understood.
Fernando ALONSO: So,
Engineer: 1.2 at the moment.
Engineer: Max so specifically the issue is breaking turn 10 whilst on the curb just for information
Lewis HAMILTON: Front right, small blistering.
Engineer: Okay, copy.
Engineer: Let's go mate, let's go. Next one's Räikkönen.
Engineer: Hey Max, so specifically the issue is braking turn 10 whilst on the kerb, just for information. Gap 7.5.
Max VERSTAPPEN: Oh, mate, did you see that moment in 7?
Engineer: Seen that, a change in wind.
Yuki TSUNODA: No tire.
Engineer: Verstappen 8.8, gap 8.0 I don't understand, 8.8 and 8.0, what's that? The gap 8.0
Lewis HAMILTON: What should I do? I can't close that gap
Engineer: Options are just battling it out on the tyre deck
Engineer: And Lewis had track limits again at turn 10. So just be careful with the track limits, Lewis. We're looking at a penalty otherwise.
Engineer: So Bottas' lap at 10.5. He's struggling with these back markers. Do
Sergio PEREZ: you think we will get him?
Engineer: We're going to be on him at the end of the race.
Engineer: Givinazzi 35 lap old hards, let's see if we can get him
Engineer: Wind strength increasing more tailwind into turn one now
Max VERSTAPPEN: It's Mid-Arkansas for you, the weather.
Engineer: Copy, understood.
Engineer: Is
Lewis HAMILTON: there rain coming?
Engineer: Nothing on the radar.
Engineer: The space is good, we're going to be on him on the final lap.
Engineer: Consider using overtake down to turn nine to keep up with Giovinazzi.
Engineer: You're doing a good job, Valtteri. You're still looking good. Ricciardo 1.4 ahead.
Engineer: And Lewis, we're happy to let science go, if you haven't just pushed too much.
Engineer: Okay, you can try to un-lap yourself. I
Carlos SAINZ: can't. It would be very risky because I throw on the main set.
Engineer: And heavy rear tyres for the last lap is more important. So Paris is not predicted to catch you. If it is, it is at the very end of the last lap.
Yuki TSUNODA: Negative, I have understood, mid exit, a lot.
Carlos SAINZ: Hi, I will do this one. Thank you guys
Engineer: There will be blue flags for Mazepin and Latifi, and they are racing.
Engineer: stick with him and it'll make life difficult for Raikkonen and Vettel.
Lewis HAMILTON: it's bouncing under pressure and
Engineer: negative not at the moment but maybe towards the end of the race
Lance STROLL: Something feels funny. It could either be pit-up or the fact that you're behind the sea-matter. Yep, something feels funny. Pressures are all over
Engineer: it.
Lance STROLL: Really funny.
Engineer: And Lambeau, a few drops possible, nothing significant.
Engineer: OK, so box, box, we're going for the fastest lap.
Engineer: Two laps to go, gap to sights, seven.
Lando NORRIS: Yeah, I don't need the gap, it's all good.
Engineer: and blue
Lance STROLL: flags move.
Engineer: Ah mate, that was just perfect. Nothing more to say than that. Really perfect. Fantastic. What a drive, mate.
Max VERSTAPPEN: Yeah, unbelievable. The car was on fire today. So nice to drive. Unbelievable. Thank you very much.
Engineer: That was absolutely clinical, Max. That's a great, great drive. Keep turning that screw. Well done.
Max VERSTAPPEN: And another win at home. Feels really good.
Engineer: Well done mate, good job today. So we got past this lap, and it's P2. I
Lewis HAMILTON: gave it everything guys. Let's keep pushing. Not the result we wanted, but still got good points.
Engineer: Well done, Valtteri. Valtteri, hot ride, but well done. Yeah, well done. It was a bit close at the end. No ties, though.
Engineer: That was perfect mate, absolutely perfect. Great pace, great deg, you managed it better than anyone out there. I don't know what to say, it was perfect.
Max VERSTAPPEN: The tyres were holding on really well, it was actually really enjoyable to drive.
Engineer: Yeah, let's try and do the same again next week. Max, I'm sending Helmut as a Styrian to go and get the trophy with you today, so make sure you give him plenty up there. Styrian Grand Prix, let's make sure it's a good one.
Max VERSTAPPEN: Oh yeah, you definitely won't escape that one.
Engineer: Ok Maus, that's the checker, that's the checker. Good drive on your side, that train of blues was very unfortunate but until then that was a good drive, nice work. Did you get
Nikita MAZEPIN: those blues or not? He
Engineer: got about four of them, so nowhere near as bad as we did. How
Nikita MAZEPIN: much behind did I finish in the end with this blue stuff?
Engineer: That's 41 seconds, 41 seconds. I'm going mode slow, mode slow. Till the blue though mate, you were within three seconds of him. In that blue pack they were fighting between them so their pace wasn't as good and so Mick just managed to stay ahead for a bit longer than we did. Good job on the opening laps as well mate, to take that opportunity, that was real nice.
Nikita MAZEPIN: Yeah with the current pace man, that's the only opportunity I have to be alert and to be honest I cannot make a cleaner race than this. Yeah, let's talk about it.
Engineer: No problem. No problem mate, box Nikita box, box Nikita box. When you come to a stop go P1, wait three seconds and then P0.
Engineer: Oh Checo, that was close. Great chase there, great chase. That was a hell of a recovery Checo, I'm sorry about the pit stop. That was a great drive, well done. Sorry guys, sorry there. Good job for the win. Well done on that one.
Engineer: Okay, checkered flag, checkered flag. You go in, go in, and pick up rubber, pick up rubber. So you end up P17, P17. After the puncture, having lost a lot of time, it's not a bad race mate. You came back on Mars and Schumacher is only 30 seconds ahead. You lost a lot of lap time, a lot of time initially.
Nicholas LATIFI: Did we get points?
Engineer: Uh, Russell had to retire. Russell had to retire. How
Nicholas LATIFI: early on was that?
Engineer: It was around mid-race. I think there was a solid race after the puncture mate. As it was done, and just focusing on what you were doing with the tyre and the pace, it was not easy with all these blue flags. I think there was a strong mate, strong job today. Unfortunate first lap. Yeah,
Nicholas LATIFI: I mean I was locked in from exit of turn one all the way up. To where I was, I had nowhere to go.
Engineer: But
Nicholas LATIFI: yeah, we have to understand this balance for the race, which is so limiting. Not even using my front tyres.
Engineer: Copy. We'll review that for next weekend.
Engineer: Charles Leclerc, congratulations, you are driver of the day. Damage at the beginning of the race, but then a fantastic result. Tell us about your race.
Charles LECLERC: It's
Engineer: a
Charles LECLERC: bit of a bittersweet feeling, to be honest. On one hand, it's probably one of my best performances ever in F1, but on the other hand, it's only a P7 and I wish we were fighting a bit more in front, but unfortunately with what happened in the first lap, yeah, that's where we finished. But at the same time, I've had so much fun, so many of the takes, the pace was incredible. So, yeah, very happy.
Engineer: It's been great fun to watch. Congratulations, Charles, driver of the day at the Styrian Grand Prix.
Lando NORRIS: Okay mate, that's
Engineer: the
Lando NORRIS: chequered flag, it's P5, nice consistent drive there,
Engineer: well
Lando NORRIS: done, P5. Yeah, that's
Engineer: all
Lando NORRIS: we could do today, good job everyone, good points again, but too far off the others, so let's try again next week, good everyone. Yeah, we'll come back next week again.
Engineer: Well done mate, good race, very well managed the tyres and yeah, that's what we had today, well done.
Lando NORRIS: Yeah cheers, yeah not even much to do with the tyres,
Engineer: it's
Lando NORRIS: better, yeah I don't know, just that's it, that's all we had so.
Engineer: Next time you leave the tyres in the garage mate, you don't need to play with them.
Lando NORRIS: Yeah you can go home now mate, I don't think you need to do anything more.
Engineer: On my way.
Engineer: Great job on that C2, those laps were amazing, you held off like 10 of those cars for ages. You did everything you could with that tire.
Mick SCHUMACHER: Yeah, copy. Car felt really good at the pace, I think clean air in the beginning would have been good.
Engineer: Copy that, ok we can go mode slow, mode slow.
Engineer: And P6, P6, super race, well done, baby shark, baby shark.
Carlos SAINZ: Too strong, so to say. Yeah, thank you guys. Good race, very solid. Hard work pays off, so much better race pace this time. Very happy for everyone. Vamos.
Engineer: Yeah, it was the race we were thinking in the morning, so very well executed.
Carlos SAINZ: Pace must have been pretty good, no? After a pit stop, when everyone pitted and I stayed out.
Engineer: Yeah, that pace there was an unbelievable fast, yeah.
Engineer: And P7, P7, fantastic race, really nice.
Charles LECLERC: It's one of my best performances ever, but at the same time it's so
Engineer: f***ing
Charles LECLERC: disappointing. I need to see the images, I don't know how much she moves left or not at the beginning.
Engineer: Great job on that C2, those laps were amazing, you held off like 10 of those cars for ages. You did everything you could with that tire.
Mick SCHUMACHER: Yeah, copy. Car felt really good at the pace, I think clean air in the beginning would have been good.
Engineer: Copy that, ok we can go mode slow, mode slow.
Engineer: P8 Lance, P8, good job mate, good job, well done.
Lance STROLL: Good job guys, great job.
Engineer: I think all in all that was about it I'm afraid Lance, so good job, great first lap mate, well done.
Lance STROLL: Cheers man, that was great. Ferrari's had a little bit too much pace today.
Engineer: So
Fernando ALONSO: lucky with the Haas, he had the DRS, unbelievable, unbelievable, he towed him until 10-3, like teammates.
Engineer: Yeah, copy that mate, that's not all lucky estate, unfortunately, still got P90. Yeah,
Fernando ALONSO: next week, next week.
Engineer: And a good race from yourself, well managed on the tyres.
Fernando ALONSO: Yeah, good job guys, good pit stop, good strategy I think, yeah, next week. Next
Engineer: week,
Fernando ALONSO: one race we will be so lucky, you know, we have so much credit on these races. Well done guys.
Engineer: It
Fernando ALONSO: was tough, and a little bit boring, nothing happened.
Engineer: Yeah, like you say, one day will be your lucky day.
Engineer: Yeah, difficult race Antonio, P15 at the end, give me P11.
Engineer: P10, Yuki, P10. We did our best, Yuki. I think it was well managed.
Yuki TSUNODA: Yeah, good job guys. Really good job for mechanics and team.
Engineer: But
Yuki TSUNODA: to be honest, I have a lot of things to do.
Engineer: A
Yuki TSUNODA: lot of things to do for this one, to be honest. If I haven't pushed like hell in the beginning, I think I have a lot of tires in the end. And easily we can overtake that. But yeah, I know the situation is difficult, but we shouldn't just look at signs, because he was much faster than us, from soft things. Copy,
Engineer: Yuki. Point taken. We'll revise the situation. But you did well.
Engineer: Sorry about that, Sebastian, sorry about that. So, top ten, Verstappen, Hamilton, Bottas. Yeah, I saw it, I read it. Well, the tyres were absolutely dead at the end. There's nothing, nothing left.
Engineer: Alright, well done, and nice last lap as well.
Esteban OCON: Yeah, OK guys. Yeah, difficult one, but we'll bounce back next week, we had a great chance to do that all over again, so let's do it.
Engineer: Absolutely. Well said, and good job once again. OK, so get some fluids on board, get some hydration in you. Difficult race, but well done, well managed. Tire management was very good. I think we've learnt a lot this week to take forward.
Esteban OCON: Yes, thank you Andy.
Engineer: Once again, well done, onwards and upwards.
Daniel RICCIARDO: Okay, that's the chequered flag. Finished P12. I think the pace was okay, mate. Just difficult overtaking. Stuck behind Raikkonen. Yeah, I mean, everything was undone. We put ourselves in a position and it was all undone. Obviously, that set it up from there. So, yeah, it sucks. Don't know what to say. Yeah, rough afternoon, mate. The good thing is, I think we understand everything. We know where the pace is and we're back here next week, to put it right. Cheers, Daniel. Try and get it. Yeah, we'll be alright in a week's time. Rough day, but we'll be alright in a week's time.
