EngineerOscar, how's the flap? How's the flap?

Oscar PIASTRII think it's okay.

Sergio PEREZFeels like we win the other

Yuki TSUNODAYeah, I think it's okay. Good amount of stability. I think just the stability in slow speed is slightly worse than yesterday, but acceptable and different 3.9 helps a lot.

Logan SARGEANTMy tube's not connected.

Pierre GASLYYeah, that's good boys, sorry Omris, be sharp and we'll get them

Pierre GASLYAlonzo is leaving a massive gap with the car ahead.

Lewis HAMILTONNo grip on the rear for some reason.

EngineerWe've got some light drops reported turn seven light drops of rain reported turn seven

EngineerSo you go race, let's go for it, come back, don't try me, we'll struggle, go for it.

EngineerOk Lando, we expect a little bit more rain, just slightly worse in turn 7, just slightly worse.

Alexander ALBONI mean, very quickly.

Alexander ALBONQuite hard to manage right now with this face up

Engineerwith that there's a bit of wind noise on the radio copy the last one

EngineerWe are happy with energy balance, a bit of saving turned on.

George RUSSELLIf that's not moving and the braking, I don't know what is.

EngineerOk Lando, Oscar has been told to hold position, he is holding position, we go together.

Max VERSTAPPENGuy's bullying a bit weird.

EngineerYeah, wind is fairly variable Max.

Nico HULKENBERGI think I lost a part of the front wing, something just flew up the car.

EngineerYes, we see a big front loss.

EngineerLando, plan A is our priority. Plan A, our priority.

EngineerEstimate we are retiring the car. We are boxing to retire the car. I'm very sorry

EngineerOkay, we're expecting some lightish rain in around two or three minutes will last three or four minutes similar to q2

EngineerOk Nick, so when we get in this gearbox, a little bit of liftoff so we have margin to attack.

EngineerYeah, we're tracking the rain, but it's gonna miss us on the radar I want to

George RUSSELLbe so sure about that, first drop on the visor Copy

EngineerOkay, Baljeet, plan A is looking good for us. There is rain approaching, but it may not hit the circuit.

EngineerDando suggestion silver d8, silver d8.

Lewis HAMILTONWhere am I losing all my time?

EngineerOK copy, it's the management mainly, management 1, 2 and 9

EngineerCan we make Plan A work, currently?

Lando NORRISYes, I think so, for sure.

Max VERSTAPPENWill this make it difficult to drive at the moment?

EngineerI don't see it.

Alexander ALBONFront left does it not feel very good

EngineerAnd at the moment we are thinking plan B for Bravo plan B for Bravo

EngineerAnd we are thinking of plan B, plan B.

Carlos SAINZWhat was plan B? Yeah, I'll let you know.

EngineerFront wing minus one as discussed. Question?

EngineerOk Lando, Leclerc has pitted, 100% pace, 100% pace

Lando NORRISYeah, I'm pretty much armed already Understood

Max VERSTAPPENI'll stop for a bit. I guess we just stick to our strategy.

EngineerYes, no concern for the moment, Max.

Logan SARGEANTWhat's the weather saying?

EngineerCurrently looking at the dry rates.

Logan SARGEANTI'm starting to struggle a bit.

EngineerLando, how many laps can we do at this pace?

Lando NORRISI'm happy, it's consistent. I can maintain this for now.

EngineerUnderstood.

EngineerAnd the left dog all is a small step that they are good Hamilton 33.2 Russell 32.8

Logan SARGEANTYou guys can see the pace. You tell me I can do five or three bucks

Carlos SAINZHow is the heart looking?

Engineer32.9 first time lap for Charles, 32.9

EngineerYeah, maybe I would like to increase like Oh level 2.5, please you might not try I know

Logan SARGEANTWhy don't you subscribe? Do like though!

EngineerAnd George, just see if there's anything you can do at turn 12 to help 13.

Carlos SAINZYeah, harder tires look a bit weaker, but don't worry, I still think the C1 is the best.

EngineerOk then, let's try some pace, try some pace.

Lando NORRISYeah, rear is still going a bit more, checks turn 4 now, a lot of re-locking.

Charles LECLERCWhat's going on with the real Intan-2? Intan-4, sorry.

EngineerWe'll come back to you.

EngineerOk Lando, how many laps can we do with this pace? How many laps at this pace? I'm happy it's consistent, but it's not changing until it's aced

EngineerOk Nick, we are reviewing the numbers. The heart doesn't look great at the moment. We are reviewing the numbers. Do we have any view?

Nyck DE VRIESOh, man, uh, it's... Hey, Christoph, that's not the way to hit it.

EngineerCopy that.

Lance STROLLTake me to Fox.

EngineerOkay Lance, don't worry about Leclerc, nobody else is stopping yet.

EngineerJust focus forward Lance nobody reacted to Leclerc and it took him a long time to catch you just focus on what you're doing It's good

George RUSSELLI'm

Engineergoing

George RUSSELLto place all those recurrents on the clock, forwards.

Lando NORRISHow are the hardtires looking on others?

EngineerHardtire doesn't look amazing, but it's our best option.

ZHOU GuanyuThis is the place I want to do. More than that, I want to damage my life.

Max VERSTAPPENSlowly a bit more vibration on the left, but it's okay.

EngineerOkay, we need to get that undercut on Gasly. Undercut on Gasly here.

EngineerHi, yours look okay for us. How's the deck for you?

Nico HULKENBERGYeah

EngineerMax, in case you're struggling with front in the low speed, if 7 is available, we'll leave it to you.

Kevin MAGNUSSENUh, engine died.

Carlos SAINZThe positions on the tyre, they are in. Quickly, Ricky, quickly. Three position, losing, three positions. To who on the tyre? To who on the tyre? Checo, Charles,

Engineer16 racing lap on stop, and Albon, three cars.

Carlos SAINZYour call, your call. Up to you.

EngineerCar ahead is Piastri. Ahead of him is Lewis. Is Lewis boxed? Yeah, he had stayed out, but he did just box.

George RUSSELLAh, ****.

EngineerAlright.

EngineerVery impressive Max, keep marching on, well done.

Max VERSTAPPENYeah I don't mind that, we had a good race, just I think that last stint was a bit more difficult than I would have liked with these tyres, but overall good pace, great jump again guys.

EngineerWell done mate, that's our first win here since 2012 and it matches a record of McLaren of 11 wins in a row, so yeah, mega day for the team, well done. Yeah

Max VERSTAPPENgreat jump, great jump guys, 11 in a row, that's pretty crazy, well done.

EngineerLogan, that is an incredible finish. That's your best finish to date. You were within a tenth of Alex for most of the race. Really impressive step.

Max VERSTAPPEN11 in a row, that's pretty crazy, well done.

EngineerDon't stop there though, will you?

Max VERSTAPPENNo, no, don't worry.

EngineerAnd at the end there, you're just finishing within seconds of your first point. It will come, you head down, you're doing a great job.

Logan SARGEANTCongratulations to the team on the points.

EngineerOkay, P5 today, that was a good job, shame about the timing of the safety car.

George RUSSELLYeah well done everybody, a strong performance in the team, shame about the timing as you say but, yep, good job, good job. George, really strong stint on the soft though so unlucky with the safety car, but the pace was really good, well done. Thanks Toto.

Lewis HAMILTONWe're going to make some changes to this car to improve it, but we're on our way.

EngineerLuis, great race, what a recovery, remember yesterday evening. But we know what we need to do.

Lewis HAMILTONYeah, let's keep pushing all right, great job. All the way Luis, yeah pushing all the way mate.

EngineerWhat I check away that was a very strong recovery well done if you'd have sudden position you'd have been right there in the race So great pace well done.

Sergio PEREZYeah, and some very nice sort of the Saturday Yeah, let's recover get back to the podium for Hungary well done for Max Reiss

EngineerOK, Lance, that's P14, I'm afraid. We had a five-second penalty for Gasly in turn 16-17.

Yuki TSUNODAYeah, we have to talk after the race. Everyone is just like unacceptable. I don't

Engineerknow

Yuki TSUNODAwhy it's so.

Nyck DE VRIESThis gives me so much information.

EngineerAnd, yeah, it was a very good start.

Fernando ALONSOHey, tough tough race mate. Yes. That well done. Seventh is probably to be better than the speed we had today, so well executed. Thanks guys. Some good weekends are coming. Don't worry.

Charles LECLERCAh, yeah, let's discuss about everything afterwards. Yeah,

Engineercopy.

EngineerIt was a very good start on the story for the end of the race, I will explain to you when you come to the office.

Nyck DE VRIESThis gave me so much information without saying too much, but... Negative.

EngineerChecking flag, P4 baby, P4. Oscar, honestly, that's an amazing result, but I'm also gutted because that was a podium-worthy drive, absolutely a podium-worthy drive.

Oscar PIASTRIGreat effort, guys. It's a nice feeling to be disappointed with P4, but, yeah, mega, mega job. We did everything we could. Thank you for all the hard work. Thanks for all the updates. We're back, baby. Let's go get them.

EngineerWell done, buddy. You've done a brilliant job all weekend, honestly. Great job. Looking forward to the next couple.

Carlos SAINZI feel like we deserve a bit more than that, but anyway, story of the year.

EngineerYes indeed, no default there, no good fights.

Fernando ALONSOGrace, order, the pen.

Fernando ALONSOThank you. Tough stuff. Great, mate.

EngineerYes. That's what I'm talking about.

Nico HULKENBERGYeah, I don't know the front wing, it must have been with Jackal in turn 4 when he was on the exit I didn't feel it, but I don't know where else Don't think on lap 1 I was close with anyone, shame for that.

EngineerYeah, that's correct. It was with Perez

Valtteri BOTTASThat's the most we can get today, the pace, I didn't have enough to follow these guys.

EngineerYep, understood. The pace on the hard was very good, especially towards the end of your stint. But gaining 8 places in a day is a good result.

Valtteri BOTTASYeah, got it.

EngineerAlessandro Valtteri, good job today, 8th position gaining the race, strong job.

Valtteri BOTTASThanks, full push always.

EngineerThat was another difficult race, we finished P15.

ZHOU GuanyuYeah Start I just went straight down with the tires locking up. I think we need to see what we can do with the tails

Lando NORRISMade my life tougher. I know my hard tire I can tell again. Thanks everyone. Thanks for the upgrades again guys Nothing is possible. None of this is possible without all the upgrades and all the hard work So I do want to say a big thanks to each and every single one of you. I love you guys, you know that

EngineerYeah, we know that we love you too as well mate. We love you too as well
