EngineerAnd just keep an eye on your mirrors if the guys are trying to pass you.

EngineerHappy to keep pushing after this for a second lap.

ZHOU GuanyuI'm not charging anything.

EngineerCopy Joe.

Max VERSTAPPENAh, front tires, front tires are really cold

EngineerUnderstood

EngineerSo currently P1 at 4 tenths for Stappen P2.

EngineerPairs 1.5, 3 second gap behind him if you need it, good to push.

EngineerOkay, good job, Robert. Let's do constant speeds on this in-lap. Watch your mirrors. You have Ocon three seconds behind and Perez three seconds behind him. It will be engine 12.

EngineerYou happy to open one more lap for our tyres? Yeah, the wheels are going a little bit, but I can open, see what happens. Ricardo, we need six pushing.

EngineerSo we'd just like you to do one time lap, remember you need maximum speed, down the start finish straight twice, and just push as hard as you can reasonably around the rest of the lap.

Nico HULKENBERGCheck the front right corner, I've hit that curb to turn 12 pretty hard. Okay, understood.

EngineerOver the line mode to charge mode charge that's now p5

EngineerAt the end of this lap, push to turn 1, no DRS please.

EngineerSo compared to both of us, it's turn 8 entry. We were braking a bit earlier.

EngineerAnd that's currently the three fastest Verstappen on hard in a 13.2.

EngineerSo we're happy to build the tyre temps up on this outlap. You're all clear ahead. Magnus is still five behind on his outlap. First time lap will be no DRS.

EngineerSo this lap compared to Bottas, it's a little bit straight line braking turn 1 that we lost. On next place is entry turn 13 And we see other cars are staying in 5th gear for turn 13. Competitors staying in 5th gear turn 13

EngineerSo reminder, you'll have no DRS on your first push, and we'll do two pushes.

EngineerSo Fernando three, let him by, he's pushing again. Fernando, so correction, Fernando is cool. Two, Fernando pushing one, let him by. And then six back to Magnussen. So take it easy now.

EngineerWe have to abort and box, we have an issue.

Lance STROLLI hear a funny noise.

EngineerYeah, understood.

Logan SARGEANTWhat am I targeting here

Engineerminus five on the dash minus five

EngineerAnd you might have sergeant approaching on pit exit. Take a look in your mirrors. Sergeant coming around turn one now.

EngineerOscar, turn 13 braking, the downshift looked normal this lap. Was turn 13 braking okay?

Oscar PIASTRIYeah, it was better this lap.

EngineerHow's the balance?

Sergio PEREZBetter, better. I think you're

Engineerlacking a bit of rotation. Schwartzmann, one second. Medium speed, but

Sergio PEREZthe

Engineerenergy... Sergeant, two seconds. Sergeant, coming through. Do you want a flap adjust?

Sergio PEREZNo, it's OK.

EngineerOK, copy.

ZHOU GuanyuWho was that, man? He just blocked me. I'm so protective.

EngineerCopy that.

Max VERSTAPPENWow, what a... my god!

EngineerThat's it.

Pierre GASLYCan I do two crew down?

EngineerUh, yeah, I have five.

Pierre GASLYOkay, I'll try two crew down.

EngineerSo, if you want, we can do another push, otherwise we can box, but it does look like a clear first lap tyre to us. Has anyone done a third push?

Alexander ALBONAre you sure? Not to me.

EngineerNot to you, okay, copy.

Alexander ALBONWhy, was I behind on my lap, or...?

EngineerSo, no one's done a third push yet, and all cars behind in phase.

EngineerOkay, Rob, you can go charge button on.

EngineerOK, so P4 with that the time so far, Pierre P5 he did improve on his third lap on this tyre. In an ideal world Esteban, we're a little tight with time, it would be good to come in and think about the next run. Do you think you really need another lap on this set?

Esteban OCONNo, no, no, all good.

EngineerJust

Esteban OCONtake the plank for last corner.

EngineerCopy that. OK mate, so let's box now please, box now. We'll have an aero cruise after turn 10 if we can.

Engineercurrently Hulkenberg is off in the gravel exit of 13 yellow flags at the moment slow down it's a red flag slow down get your Delta positive all clear behind

EngineerOkay, so Logan will let us through on the outlap.

EngineerOkay, so definitely seven laps, might be eight if we're lucky, cars in front are Bottas, Sargent and Albon, big gap's been formed behind by Verstappen.

EngineerOkay, so be a mixed bag of low fuel and high fuel now get straight into it

Robert SHWARTZMANBut what are they doing? They're just stopped on the exit.

EngineerYeah, I think they're just building a gap

EngineerThe

Esteban OCONcar was going on the front on its side, I think, when I slowed down.

EngineerUnderstood. Okay, we're having a look now.

EngineerOk, Ocon possibly pushing behind Magnussen, 2.5 behind Ocon coming soon Ok, stuck behind Magnussen Yeah, it's a bit of a mess I think we do a build Yeah, go for it

Lando NORRISYeah, any thread to improve? Driving? Nothing?

EngineerMinor, purple C2, position 5, purple C2, position 5 Opportunity, focus exit turn 2, first push car, Zunoda turn 9

Robert SHWARTZMANThe rear is super unstable.

EngineerOkay, copy that. Yeah, we saw a few snaps there.

EngineerOkay, so we'll only get two more time lapse so I would continue push now continue push go to strat 5 strat 5 It will do a bit of charging, but we'll only get to that anyway

EngineerAlonso at 3.

Lewis HAMILTONI'll try one more if this goes.

EngineerNo problem, so keep an eye on Alonso's car behind so he may be on a lap.

George RUSSELLOk so I need a very slow lap, try and find me some space if I need to go a little bit faster 3 to Piastri

Engineer2 to Piastri, yeah we've only got a minute to go to the flag

EngineerOkay, we will have to get going now Max, otherwise we won't make the lap.

EngineerOkay, we'll be very tight with the flag if you don't see it strap 5 keep pushing

ZHOU GuanyuYeah, have a look what happened my last lap. Everything was quite smooth until the exit. I had a smooth snap.

EngineerI

ZHOU Guanyufeel like the weight has changed.

Yuki TSUNODAYeah, I definitely felt a bit of a drop in terms of grip, especially rear, from 10-7 hours. But yeah, I would say it's working on expectation, kinda. Probably the rear was a little bit too weak in the end, especially sector 3.

EngineerCopy, OK.

Pierre GASLYI couldn't do the burnout, I don't know,

Engineerit

Pierre GASLYfelt like I still had some throttle, like a couple of percent throttle.

EngineerCopy that. Just

Pierre GASLYchecked after 14 when I was off throttle.

Robert SHWARTZMANAll good?

EngineerYeah, all good. Good job.

Robert SHWARTZMANYeah, the pit lane is super tight Can I give some feedback?

EngineerYeah
