Every message, in the order it happened
Engineer: How are our conditions?
Max VERSTAPPEN: Yeah, perfect for intermediate.
Engineer: Ok, understood.
Mick SCHUMACHER: It's wetter, now it's pointy, but it's fine.
Engineer: Understood. So we'll box now, box, drive through pit lane.
Mick SCHUMACHER: It's wetter, now it's pointy, but it's fine.
Engineer: Understood. So we'll box now, box, drive through pit lane.
Engineer: How is the balance Pierre? Looks like we have a good amount of front-ends
Pierre GASLY: Yeah
Engineer: It's a
Pierre GASLY: bit more wet than in bit 3
Engineer: How is the car balance, Lando? How is the car balance?
Lando NORRIS: Yeah, I'm happy.
Engineer: Understood. And we will drive through a pit lane again, we will drive through a pit lane again.
Engineer: Ok, we go in, go in, cool the car, pox pox for a second drive thru Copy, pox pox Copy, pox
Engineer: When you stop at the back of the grid, P1, wait for the mission, on C0, looks like we pick up more understeer on the second lap already, we have a chart on the grid. Ok, I need something on my visor because I have too much water standing on the visor. Ok, Piri is listening.
Engineer: How was the balance?
Yuki TSUNODA: Yeah, I felt a little bit like we expect, bit of the front, but it's not a big issue for me, it was slow speed and like turn 7, turn 5 was quite good balance, so we can keep this, yeah, it's not like to oversteer. Second push was a bit more stable? It's quite the same, yeah, it's quite the same, similar, obviously.
Engineer: Copy that. You can jump out when you arrive at the spot.
Lewis HAMILTON: Marcus, the question is whether you go the inside or the outside for turn 1.
Pierre GASLY: Radio check
Engineer: Radio is good, so we've put you in offset minus 2 to avoid any risk of front lock turn 1 but we leave it up to you it's just what we saw last time but after turn 1 you can go straight back forward if you want Copy,
Pierre GASLY: I see a bit more drizzle now
Engineer: There was a little bit more drizzle and it's calming down again No it's calming down, but there was more
Engineer: Yeah, it looks like it should be like this the whole race, so we just need to focus in understanding whether it's better to keep boxing for inters or stay out for the slick intermediate, is
Carlos SAINZ: the main point of understanding.
Daniel RICCIARDO: All right, radio check.
Engineer: Yeah, radio is good.
Engineer: Seems like the weather will be like this for quite a while.
Engineer: All right, so we'll be firing up in about two and a half minutes roughly No change to the weather. It's just gonna be like this for the rest of the afternoon
Engineer: Check how I've applied a one-click-reward bias offset for the start.
Lewis HAMILTON: We're going to have to get music in this car. I can't listen to that terrible beat every single race.
Engineer: I could sing to you if you want, but I don't think that would be appreciated. Better
Lewis HAMILTON: than this.
Engineer: You haven't heard me sing. If
Lewis HAMILTON: we do the job today, you'll have to sing for us after.
Pierre GASLY: Is there any more rain coming
Engineer: or at the moment we think this will be like that? We expect these conditions to stay as they are for pretty much always.
Engineer: It's three long burnouts from the timing line, three long burnouts from the timing line.
Engineer: When you can, max mode 7, mode 7 when you can.
Nicholas LATIFI: Contact, we are left. Contact, we are left.
Engineer: Ok, we'll check. Pressure looks fine, signal press HPP. Pressure looks fine.
Engineer: Had a touch with Vettel, I think it's okay, but worth a check, top wing. Copy that, we'll look.
Engineer: Okay Latifi's behind I'll get the tires going again
Engineer: Ok Pierre, so now we stay in to the rhythm and we manage your tyres please, keep us posted on the track
Fernando ALONSO: What a stupid guy actually
Pierre GASLY: You're on the sandwich!
Engineer: Okay, so the full test is done at 34.3, max at 34.5. Let's look after this front right, look after the front right.
Max VERSTAPPEN: I could be having an error next to my gear shift, the number, I don't know what that is.
Engineer: OK, stand by.
Lance STROLL: Tires are overheating a lot.
Engineer: Affirm, rears are hot, rears are hot, manage the exit of 5 and 7, prioritise exit 5 and 7.
Engineer: Turn eight manage more one step more Yeah, but we remember the long-term objective long-term objective
Engineer: So just keep on with the management, let's build some fuel margin.
Engineer: OK, Sven, confirm status please, cars in front lapping low 36's.
Esteban OCON: Status 6, but still making damage to the front.
Engineer: And Lando, suggest yellow G1, yellow G1, and how's this pace?
Lando NORRIS: Yeah, pace 4, pace 5.
Daniel RICCIARDO: Okay, yeah so, front's take more of a hit in traffic, that's initial comments.
Engineer: Understood.
Carlos SAINZ: I need to boost, and I do everything. Understood,
Engineer: okay.
Engineer: Great stuff, Lewis.
Engineer: Other cars report in front right, grainy.
Carlos SAINZ: Yes, same for me.
Engineer: Understood.
Engineer: Just think about your bias offset still minus one.
Valtteri BOTTAS: There's no dry patches on us yet.
Engineer: So Norris better in turn 8 than the others but slower on the straights.
Engineer: And keep moving off the line when you can.
Engineer: brake balance one click rearwards brake balance one click rearwards manage rear locking into turn 12 with brakes one into turn 12 only
Engineer: I'll have a conditions update when you can please Max. Are things improving at all or not?
Max VERSTAPPEN: No, not really. I mean it's getting a tiny bit drier but still very greasy.
Engineer: OK, understood.
Sergio PEREZ: Repeat the phase, repeat.
Engineer: 34.5 for Bottas, 34.5, Max at 34.6.
Engineer: Tell me about the track get behind at 1.5.
George RUSSELL: It's dry but still far from slicks
Nikita MAZEPIN: I don't see anything in my mirrors, so if Latifi is super close, let me know. Yeah, Latifi just behind you.
Lewis HAMILTON: Dry, still plenty wet. Tires wearing down.
Engineer: And let me know what you think on track conditions if they are getting better Not
Charles LECLERC: really
Kimi RAIKKONEN: I can drive the whole race behind, I will try, but every time I get closer, it's just closing.
Engineer: OK, give me, copy, copy.
Engineer: There's the light drizzle, turn 8, turn 9, 10, 11.
Sebastian VETTEL: Okay, drive straight into me then.
Engineer: And Lando, have the track conditions changed?
Lando NORRIS: No, very similar. I think some bits are definitely getting drier but it's very difficult to see.
Engineer: Excellent work Lewis.
Pierre GASLY: I can't move, like, turn 8 is quick
Engineer: Jacob is at PR, we are a bit stand out in turn 8, but people seem to have bigger problems than us At the moment we are still doing what we think we should be doing
Lance STROLL: Yeah, it's getting a little bit drier, but very far from slick. There's no dry line. Super greasy. Copy that, copy that.
Lewis HAMILTON: Right side, get the rubber board.
Engineer: The
Lewis HAMILTON: rubber board on
Engineer: the
Lewis HAMILTON: inside.
Engineer: On confirm we can see Norris Hamilton have big front right damage, big front right damage for Norris.
Engineer: On confirm, we can see Norris Hamilton have big front right damage, big front right damage for Norris.
Engineer: Okay, groaning looks to have cleaned up. Let's see if there's anything left in the tyre. Understood.
Daniel RICCIARDO: Yeah, just vibrations, but it's pretty stable.
Engineer: Does
Lewis HAMILTON: anyone else complain about tyres or not?
Engineer: Affirm, we're looking pretty good on aspect
Engineer: Stay on with the management. Lifting Coast. We'll come back to us later. Save it now. Come back to us later.
Engineer: It's really good pace Max, actually let's just hold that gap to Bottas there, introduce a bit more at 3 and 8 again. It's good to know we've got the pace if we need it, and the tyres compared to him ahead.
Engineer: How's the flap angle?
Sergio PEREZ: Yeah, I can take a bit more.
Engineer: Still mains limitation turn seven
Engineer: So temps are coming down, temps are coming down quite a lot but we do think saving in eight is best for overall tyre performance.
Engineer: And Lando, relative to target, how far do you think this tyre can go?
Lando NORRIS: It's turned into a slick basically, so quite a long way.
Max VERSTAPPEN: Black so very greasy, it's just not dry.
Engineer: Yeah, copy that. As I say then, it's about the long game here, you know that.
Engineer: Okay, so maintain the management at turn eight reduce the management elsewhere now get behind this one
Engineer: How much faster could you be on a new inter, do you think?
Daniel RICCIARDO: Yep, yeah, faster, quite a bit.
Engineer: so just overall info the biggest temperatures we've got is the exit of eight so we think a bit more management especially for the exit of eight that might be through and exit of eight
Esteban OCON: Who's behind cause I'm blind, I can't see in the mirrors
Lance STROLL: OK, I figured something out. I'm feeling much better now.
Engineer: Copy that, copy that. We're happy with Turn 8. Keep pushing.
Engineer: So at the moment Ricciardo is slower with new inters
Carlos SAINZ: Keep an eye on my rear.
Engineer: I
Carlos SAINZ: feel like I'm close to the canvas.
Engineer: Copy that.
Carlos SAINZ: I cannot see anything on the mirrors, so no idea.
Max VERSTAPPEN: Tricky group now, also from the left-hand side, tires.
Engineer: OK, understood.
Engineer: The multi be white copy will do so pit for interest just to other thing
Engineer: Lando, we would aim for target plus five at least, if possible.
Lando NORRIS: I can't hear you very well, you need to make it clear.
Engineer: We would aim for target plus five, if possible.
Lando NORRIS: OK, I'm just at a very good pace.
Carlos SAINZ: Yeah, I think we should try on one stop from here.
Engineer: Copy.
Max VERSTAPPEN: Car's not pointy now, so I guess we shouldn't add the wing.
Engineer: Thank you.
Engineer: The clerk's starting to struggle. He's done a 34.5.
Engineer: So pace is still very good, and we're going long.
Valtteri BOTTAS: Yeah, copy. These tyres, they're basically like sticks now, there's no surface left, but they're okay.
Engineer: So not expecting any significant rain.
Engineer: Okay, the car's still out on Inter from the start. They're starting to struggle a bit more now.
Fernando ALONSO: Anyone behind either half mirror
Engineer: Latifi six seconds behind Russell now four and a half seconds in front
Lewis HAMILTON: Grip starting to drop a little bit. Still no dry line. Exit of 8 only.
Engineer: Sebastian, do you think it might dry before the end of the race? Do you think it will reach dry tyres?
Sebastian VETTEL: Yes
Engineer: Copy
George RUSSELL: 5
Engineer: seconds to Alonso, Alonso has a time penalty in his next stop
Lando NORRIS: Yeah, I feel like you just grain a new inter now. I feel like it'd be very difficult to get it to the slick face
Engineer: Main place turn one turn three last three corners we can improve
Engineer: Still the rating from turn 6 to turn 12
Max VERSTAPPEN: Suffering a lot with the wheel now too.
Valtteri BOTTAS: Now I can see a dry line in places, but all the few places, turn 8, turn 9, and braking into turn 12.
Engineer: Copy that.
Engineer: Just a question, if there was a safety car, would you consider a soft tyre?
Sebastian VETTEL: Probably yes.
Engineer: Overtake available.
Valtteri BOTTAS: The urea is starting to be going snappy.
Engineer: Copy, see if you can get more temperature, so start avoiding water.
Engineer: I
Kimi RAIKKONEN: cannot get past this f***ing car.
Carlos SAINZ: It's raining more now
Engineer: Understood, within condition we stay like this for the rest of the race
Engineer: In front is Schumacher and Mazipan. Stroll 1.9 behind.
Lando NORRIS: Yeah, I'm just, I don't have any pace. I'm struggling so much.
Engineer: So the people that fitted new interns are still well outside our pit window. We are a bit slower than the cars ahead, but not slower than the cars behind.
Max VERSTAPPEN: I'm really struggling in the last sector.
Engineer: Understood, Max.
Engineer: He
Sergio PEREZ: pushed me off.
Engineer: Copy, check-eye. It's great defence.
Nikita MAZEPIN: What do you think of our tires? Okay, so I don't really know
Engineer: But
Nikita MAZEPIN: I can keep going Okay understood
Engineer: We need to bring this tighter in slowly. Bring this tighter in slowly with the drier conditions, Max.
Sebastian VETTEL: Uh, it's not working.
Engineer: Vettel dry tires really slow through turn eight apex turn eight
Engineer: What tires you gonna put in? Inter. Why the f*** you would stop then? It's ok still. Because we believe we can't go to the end like this Kimi. We can't go to the end, still 20 laps. Front wing question? Plus 3. Plus 3, copy.
Engineer: Slicks are bad, it's a new inter to the end.
Lance STROLL: Boxers down.
Engineer: Use all the tire now use it all now Vettel behind us for position
Charles LECLERC: Can I stay with this set until the end of the race?
Engineer: Yes, you can stay until the end with this set.
Lance STROLL: Got to really watch turn 8, right?
Engineer: Affirm, manage 8, you're doing a good job.
Engineer: Box, box, box, box. Why? New inset is the way to go. I think it is, man.
Engineer: Okay, Hamilton has stayed out. He's been asked to fit.
Engineer: It
Lewis HAMILTON: feels like we should stay out, man.
Engineer: OK, we'll stay out one more lap. Gives us a bit more thinking time.
Engineer: Lando we've been told you will not get flags for Vettel unless we get within 1.2 we only have to do it once so if you can try it's 1.7 now
Engineer: It's not
Lewis HAMILTON: far off the rise, but...
Engineer: OK, copy Lewis, we won't react yet.
Engineer: Could try early overtake out of turn nine.
Max VERSTAPPEN: I don't know what's wrong with my steering wheel, but it's going more and more left and up.
Charles LECLERC: If we stay at this pace, what are we looking for in terms of position?
Engineer: If we can keep Bottas behind, P1.
Engineer: I think he's trying to hang it out in case it gets to dry tires
Sebastian VETTEL: I disagree on tire-saving it just stays with the graining for longer
Engineer: Ok Kimi, your pace is very good. Leclerc ahead is struggling, he hasn't stopped yet.
Engineer: We think we should stop and push for the last 12 laps. Copy. If yes, I can keep a 35.5 for
Charles LECLERC: your info. Let me know if you stop or not.
Lewis HAMILTON: But these tyres last to the end. Straighten up, Bob.
Engineer: Copy, Lewis. Yeah, we're just debating if these will last into the dry.
Engineer: Come on, Valtteri.
Engineer: It's even lighter in the pit lane now. How's the conditions on track? A
Daniel RICCIARDO: bit more dry, but still not there.
Engineer: And Sainz is happy with the inters. We think you can push until the end with this set.
Engineer: How's that front right, Esteban?
Esteban OCON: Not too much worse, so that's not too bad.
Engineer: Copy. OK, so I want a lap-by-lap update on that tyre. Please stroll four and a half seconds behind.
Engineer: And Lucy can you update us on the tyres? I
Lewis HAMILTON: mean I'm sliding around but it's ok, so far
Engineer: Ok copy
Daniel RICCIARDO: Rear is hanging on by a thread.
Engineer: Copy.
Engineer: OK Lewis, so we think we should box this lap, this will be our last chance before we lose the gap to Gasly. You
Lewis HAMILTON: sure? OK.
Engineer: Okay, Hamilton has pitted. That will put him behind Leclerc and Checo.
Max VERSTAPPEN: How far do you think Checo will be ahead of him?
Engineer: So, Hamilton about six seconds behind Checo.
Engineer: So Gasly at 3 behind, 3 behind. F***
Lewis HAMILTON: man, why did you give up that space?
Engineer: Looks like we were going to lose position anyway.
Charles LECLERC: I just have no rear grip at all
Max VERSTAPPEN: Oh my god, what is this Haas doing mate? Look at that!
Engineer: So Lando, three cars ahead is Leclerc, he stopped four laps ago, he's struggling on the inter, 7.5 ahead, he's our target.
Engineer: So Leclerc pushed hard first two laps of his stint and he's down to the 36 is already Hamilton still behind Leclerc
Lewis HAMILTON: What position am I in man?
Engineer: Currently P5
Lewis HAMILTON: You should have come in man Got massive graining man I told you
Engineer: OK copy Lewis, we were losing time to Perez but we'll chat about it later, we've got Gasly car behind 1.7
Engineer: and we see Hamilton behind with graining also
Engineer: So, guzzling at one second.
Lewis HAMILTON: Leave it alone, man.
Daniel RICCIARDO: You're going to have to tell me where to let him go because I literally can't see. Okay,
Engineer: you do not have blue flags yet. Correction, we have blue flags for Bottas. Let him pass into turn one.
Daniel RICCIARDO: Okay, you're literally going to have to spot me if you can, because I can't see.
Engineer: Ha
Engineer: You don't want to get tangled up with anything here
Engineer: So nobody will take it away from you. So don't need to take any risk.
Engineer: Lando 4.5 in front, enchant button on, MP8, great job, great recovery
Carlos SAINZ: Yeah, thank you guys, good job, a shame we could have had them, but it's what it is, we keep pushing
Engineer: Yeah, very strong pace as well, so nice one
Carlos SAINZ: Ah yeah, we must have been flying there at the end because we were catching
Engineer: Thank you Carlos Sainz, congratulations, you are driver of the day, starting from the back row of the grid, finishing P8, tell me how difficult it was out there Carlos Sainz, congratulations, you are driver of the day, starting from the back row of the grid, finishing P8, tell me how difficult it was out there on track today Oh
Carlos SAINZ: really? Oh great, first driver of the day of my life, it took me a few years to get driver of the day But yeah, thank you, it was quite tricky, at the beginning I could do a lot of moves when it was still wet Then when it dried out, there was only one racing line and I couldn't overtake that easy and we got a bit stuck But apart from that good recovery, very strong pace so happy
Engineer: Fantastic to talk to you and enjoy your first moment as driver of the day
Carlos SAINZ: Thank you very much Adios Adios
Engineer: Carlos Sainz, congratulations. You are driving. Oh,
Carlos SAINZ: really? Oh, great. Cheers. First driver of the day of my life. It took me a few years to be a driver of the day. But yeah, thank you. It was quite tricky. At the beginning, I could do a lot of moves when it was still wet. Then when it dried out, it was only when it
Engineer: was still wet that I was able to do a lot
Engineer: Well done. Dominant performance. Great stuff. Yes! Thank you. That's fun. Hi, Valtteri. It's James. Great drive. Really, really well done. Thank you. Cheers. Good job. Yeah, great job, Valtteri. Brilliant, brilliant effort.
Engineer: That's a good day's work Max, P2 mate, we can be happy with that.
Max VERSTAPPEN: Yeah I think we maximized that, it's not that easy with the tires, it's managing but good job.
Engineer: Back on the podium mate. Finally man. Yeah well done Checo. I told you you'd be on the podium. Well done mate. Good job.
Engineer: Can
Nikita MAZEPIN: you please note down that I was really struggling with the visor being fogged up during the race. Understood. So
Engineer: we
Nikita MAZEPIN: can investigate,
Engineer: thank you. No problem, so when you stop, just P143 seconds before you go to P0 please. We can
Nikita MAZEPIN: speak afterwards. Sure. Alright, no worries, we can speak afterwards.
Engineer: I need to get back to you on that. Which
Nikita MAZEPIN: cars lapped me and didn't lap Mick, just out of interest?
Engineer: Alright, no worries, we can speak afterwards. Sure, no worries. Can
Nikita MAZEPIN: you please note down that I was really struggling with the visor being fogged up during the race. Understood. So
Engineer: we
Nikita MAZEPIN: can investigate,
Engineer: thank you. No problem, so when you stop, just P143 seconds before you go to P0 please.
Engineer: Well done Valtteri, remember the double F-word on the wall.
Valtteri BOTTAS: Yes, I did, thanks Toto.
Engineer: Can
Nikita MAZEPIN: you please note down that I was really struggling with the visor
Engineer: Being
Nikita MAZEPIN: fogged up during the race Understood Okay, no problem. So when you stop just P143 seconds before you go to P0, please
Engineer: So sorry about that, we'll have to chat to you, talk you through the call.
Engineer: Yeah, well done Max, very strong drive today, well done.
Max VERSTAPPEN: Luckily the start wasn't too bad as well, and nice to have Checo up there as well, so that's a good day for the team.
Engineer: Checkered flag Mick, checkered flag.
Mick SCHUMACHER: Yeah, copy.
Engineer: Tough day out there. Alonso did get a five-second penalty, doesn't change anything for us, but did well, just didn't have enough grip for you sometimes.
Mick SCHUMACHER: Yeah. Well, big hopes. Still, thank you for everything. Loads of positives we can take away from here. So thank you for that boys.
Engineer: Yeah, good job. Some of your laps at the end were very good, very competitive.
Mick SCHUMACHER: And overall, just thank you.
Engineer: Yep, thank you too Mick.
Sergio PEREZ: Yeah, nice to be back man. Now we cannot leave it till the end of the year. And
Engineer: we're back on the podium. Build from here. Yeah,
Sergio PEREZ: we can do this every weekend.
Engineer: Gonna be on that top step in Mexico. Yes, yes.
Sergio PEREZ: Let's keep it up and understand our race today.
Engineer: That's the checkered flag, checkered flag. P18, I think looking at the positives there was some good learning at the end.
Sebastian VETTEL: Yeah, sorry for the call. I thought it's worth taking the risk, but it was impossible to switch him on.
Engineer: Yeah, copy that.
Engineer: Carlos Sainz, congratulations. You are driver of the day, starting from the back row of the grid, finishing P8. Tell me how difficult it was out there on track today.
Carlos SAINZ: Oh, really? Oh, great. Cheers. First driver of the day of my life. It took me a few years to get driver of the day. But yeah, thank you. It was quite tricky at the beginning. I could do a lot of moves when it was still wet, then when it dried out, there was only one racing line and I couldn't overtake that easy and we got a bit stuck. But apart from that, I could recover at a strong pace, so happy.
Engineer: Fantastic to talk to you and enjoy your first moment as driver of the day.
Carlos SAINZ: Thank you very much. Adios. Adios from the smooth operator.
Engineer: Let's check a flag, check a flag. P17, P17. Strong pace, strong pace, strong recovery after the spin, too bad. Lost a bit our chance to go a bit ahead. Sorry about that guys. It's okay, we have up and down as a team, up and down as a teammate. Pace was really strong after.
Engineer: You've done a good job, all right?
Charles LECLERC: Yeah We struggled a lot, I struggled a lot with the car in the first lap with the intermediate Something straight there Anyway, thank you.
Engineer: Copy, thank you
Engineer: OK, that's the checkered flag, let me go scenario 12 please, scenario 12. Sorry mate, that was a tough one after that turn 1.
Fernando ALONSO: Yeah, I guess next year is going to be crazy lucky, because even today this is crazy stuff.
Engineer: Hopefully
Fernando ALONSO: we can qualify again, hopefully we can qualify at the front next races and maybe have another chance, but I think anyway the car was good this weekend, good
Engineer: job. I'm sure we will mate, should get a bit more normal racing ahead of us now.
Engineer: OK, checkered flag, nice and slow on the way in, nice and slow on the way in, P15. That was a tough afternoon.
George RUSSELL: Yeah, certainly was, certainly was, plenty to look into.
Engineer: So Ricciardo that pitted around lap 21, he managed to hang on just at the end, so he finished P13, he was in the 39s at the end. That's about 8 seconds, 8 seconds ahead I think.
Engineer: Okay, nice job here. I know we're gonna ask a question about the first hint in terms of management But we did what we think was the best for us. So a P6 is good and Ocon is P10 It's a good bag of points there
Pierre GASLY: Yeah, good job It was a very hard race in terms of management and with the conditions, but yeah
Engineer: I
Pierre GASLY: think we did a very good job, we finished right in Hamilton and not far from Charles So, good job and some very good things
Lando NORRIS: Good job.
Engineer: I
Lando NORRIS: think that was what we could achieve today.
Engineer: Yep, good job. Well managed with the tyres. And I think good learning from the other weekend, so well done.
Engineer: Chakri flag, Chakri flag P-14 AUK, P-14
Yuki TSUNODA: Yeah, sorry for this, very sorry for this one, I mean, yeah Yeah, sorry, very sorry
Engineer: It was a difficult one
Carlos SAINZ: MP8, great
Engineer: job, great recovery.
Carlos SAINZ: Yeah, thank you guys, good job, a shame, we could have had them, but it's what it is, we keep pushing.
Engineer: Yeah, very strong pace as well, so, nice one.
Carlos SAINZ: Yeah, we must have been flying there at the end, because we were catching.
Engineer: P9, good job.
Lance STROLL: Good job guys, some good points, even with the slow stop we picked up some points, so good effort.
Engineer: Yeah, good job, good tyre management, you found something in that first stint, that was good, that was a good job.
Lance STROLL: You just love a bit of rain Ben, don't you?
Engineer: Seems that way, seems that way.
Lance STROLL: Great job guys, everyone back at the factory, picked up some points, it's
Engineer: a
Lance STROLL: good effort.
Daniel RICCIARDO: Okay that's the checkered flag, ACS off, ACS off and recharge on. Daniel we finished P13 in the end, finished P13.
Engineer: You
Daniel RICCIARDO: did, to be honest mate you did a good job keeping it on track those last few laps, I could see there was absolutely no grip. Yeah, yeah understood. Yeah it was probably like four good laps where I had grip but the rest was, yeah it was tricky. So your pace before you caught up to Stroll, that phase of the race was pretty good to be honest. I know it maybe didn't feel great but your pace in that phase from when you passed Latifi to when you caught up with Stroll was very good. Yeah understood. Alrighty. Alright thanks guys, I know there was some late nights this weekend so we'll come back and make some good shit happen. Cheers.
Engineer: That was a hard work point, but very well done, very well done, that was nice. Yeah, that was very well managed by you, very well done indeed. Good job, and we got something out of it as well, excellent work. Yeah, there's a few more corners I think that would have exploded.
Engineer: On your P11, at the end, there's the point. Thank you. Why you didn't say to push me on 10-8 for flat out? Why? Thank you Surin, thank you, it was a pleasure working with you.
Engineer: Ok, that's a checkhead, that's a checkhead mode charge, Antonio was told. Thank you Sirin, thank you, it was a pleasure working with you.
