9. ZHOU GuanyuAlfa Romeo11:42:49

   ZHOU Guanyu: I think he is really low by factory

10. Esteban OCONAlpine11:44:04

    Esteban OCON: Well, you need to look at turn 9, because that last lap before, I did hit the ground massively. If we go quicker in qualifying, it's going to be a problem.

12. Lando NORRISMcLaren11:44:25

19. Sergio PEREZRed Bull11:50:28

    Engineer: Okay check out there might be a few spots around turn 15 but just expecting light rain initially. Got a 25 minute window here.

20. Logan SARGEANTWilliams11:50:39

21. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes11:51:13

    Lewis HAMILTON: Where is my set time? Just sort of straight there?

    Engineer: Yes, at the moment.

22. Fernando ALONSOAston Martin11:52:44

    Engineer: So we think we'll just get this one time lap and then it may be rain so This lap you're still all clear behind you got 13 seconds back to the stop

23. Lance STROLLAston Martin11:53:51

    Engineer: Latest info Lance is it's going to be one timed and then rain so it has to be lap one

24. Sergio PEREZRed Bull11:54:37

    Engineer: Okay Choco, there's some rain about to hit Turn 15. Looks harder than expected.

25. Logan SARGEANTWilliams11:56:09

    Engineer: There's no near traffic. Yeah Gasly first car pushing within 10

26. Alexander ALBONWilliams11:57:00

    Alexander ALBON: What the f*** is on fire?

    Engineer: Copy that. A rain potentially from 15 around the Turbine. Yeah, raining in the sector 3. Okay, that should cool your backside down a bit.

27. Charles LECLERCFerrari11:58:48

    Charles LECLERC: Yeah, it's raining a lot in the 10-19, 10-19, and I am staying out, copy, I won't take risk, but I'm staying out, understood

28. Lando NORRISMcLaren12:05:31

    Lando NORRIS: Yeah, surprisingly not that bad anywhere, I would say. Distance 7, probably the wettest.

    Engineer: Understood.

29. Nyck DE VRIESAlphaTauri12:05:45

    Engineer: So the rain is decreasing now so we try to take opportunity from these conditions

30. Lando NORRISMcLaren12:06:00

    Engineer: Do you want to put a slick on? Yeah, we are keen to do that.

    Lando NORRIS: Yeah, same.

31. Lando NORRISMcLaren12:07:24

    Engineer: But I want to do it as quickly as possible, alright? I don't want to just sit in the garage for 20 minutes again. Sure, no problem.

32. Yuki TSUNODAAlphaTauri12:07:38

    Engineer: Si.

33. Alexander ALBONWilliams12:07:40

    Engineer: eating sectors one and two okay we can see

34. George RUSSELLMercedes12:07:43

    George RUSSELL: It's just a really annoying condition where it's not slick, it's not wet.

35. George RUSSELLMercedes12:07:50

    George RUSSELL: Yeah, it's just a really annoying condition where it's not slicks, not wets

36. Carlos SAINZFerrari12:08:00

    Engineer: More rain expected in four to five minutes. I leave it to you to don't damage the tires

37. George RUSSELLMercedes12:08:10

    George RUSSELL: It's spitting turn 3 to 7, but it slicks.

38. Logan SARGEANTWilliams12:08:10

    Engineer: As you view that the slicks are the right tire, Gasly pushing within seven. There's more rain coming. Yeah, okay

39. Alexander ALBONWilliams12:09:19

    Alexander ALBON: If this

    Engineer: is quality I would be six. Copy that. Okay, if we're not going to learn anything we are happy to box.

40. Logan SARGEANTWilliams12:09:50

    Logan SARGEANT: It's hard for me to justify any risk in this

    Engineer: Yep, I understood Perez slow behind Rain coming there's more rain. We can't use that. Otherwise, we'll see titan damage

41. Sergio PEREZRed Bull12:11:39

    Sergio PEREZ: It's heavy.

    Engineer: I

    Sergio PEREZ: don't think we will land anything.

    Engineer: Yeah, there's a row of incoming.

42. Lando NORRISMcLaren12:12:11

    Lando NORRIS: A little bit of rain here.

43. Valtteri BOTTASAlfa Romeo12:14:44

    Engineer: We expect the rain to stay at this level until the end of the session.

44. Valtteri BOTTASAlfa Romeo12:15:09

    Valtteri BOTTAS: Yeah, you know, most of the track is dry, it's only a few bits are wet.

45. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull12:19:17

    Engineer: Tires would be good for two laps in these conditions.

    Max VERSTAPPEN: No, I think this one.

    Engineer: Yeah, so understood.

46. Charles LECLERCFerrari12:19:55

    Engineer: Unbreak balance minus one, suggestion.

47. Charles LECLERCFerrari12:20:14

    Engineer: Yeah, my front left is quite gone already, but anyways,

    Charles LECLERC: we'll

    Engineer: try. I believe shock 2 will be better, gap 2 pered in front. 8 seconds, no one pushing behind.

48. George RUSSELLMercedes12:20:55

    George RUSSELL: Very, very much so.

49. Charles LECLERCFerrari12:21:25

    Charles LECLERC: Yeah, my front left is quite gone already, but anyway, we'll try.

51. Fernando ALONSOAston Martin12:21:33

52. Fernando ALONSOAston Martin12:22:07

    Engineer: So the wind has picked up it's 20 kph tail into three 20 kph

    Audio only, no transcript available for this message.

54. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull12:22:55

    Max VERSTAPPEN: No, everything felt quite normal. I mean, the track is dry, reasonably dry in some places for inters and then the last sector of it was slippery.

55. Yuki TSUNODAAlphaTauri12:24:06

    Yuki TSUNODA: I want to go to an abstinent row, I think.

56. George RUSSELLMercedes12:25:22

    George RUSSELL: All traffic a

    Engineer: firm, okay

57. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull12:27:22

    Engineer: You can expect perhaps a slight increase in intensity in the final sector.

58. Lance STROLLAston Martin12:27:53

    Lance STROLL: It's raining more

59. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes12:29:21

    Lewis HAMILTON: Let's turn one flat out, yeah.
