    EngineerBrake warming up.

  5. ZHOU GuanyuAlfa Romeo11:52:090:09

    ZHOU GuanyuJust let the guy double-check my paddle position. It seems like the brake and the throttle is the opposite direction compared to the test.

  6. ZHOU GuanyuAlfa Romeo12:01:330:12

    ZHOU GuanyuHave a look at the panel man, it's quite a lot different to last week.

  10. Charles LECLERCFerrari12:16:160:16

    Charles LECLERCDefinitely something strange with the clutch, but just going out of the car, I don't think it's a problem. When I take it back, it seems to, I don't know, to remain, to not go fully back.

  11. Logan SARGEANTWilliams12:17:440:07

    Logan SARGEANTIt still feels like there's a problem with the hold revs.

    EngineerCopy, we'll have a look.

  12. Nico HULKENBERGHaas12:22:030:08
