EngineerVJ check.
Sergio PEREZSo much traffic.
EngineerAs a car is looking good in data
EngineerSo the wind has picked up a little bit in the last minute or so 20 kph
EngineerAnd Lance we can go to cool it can be relatively fast cooled So rear left is on the target now so we can keep them here keep them here relatively fast cool and we'll go again
EngineerHappy to let the tyres cool a little bit, but not much.
Max VERSTAPPENMy god Unbelievable
EngineerSo to Perez, it's 10th sector 1, 10th and a half in the middle.
EngineerThere's five cars to open laps in front
EngineerIs the car possible to come back?
Oscar PIASTRINo, no, sorry.
EngineerI
Nico HULKENBERGwant to do a cool and normal lap.
EngineerOkay, yeah, it's a yellow turn three, yellow turn two, three, double yellow two and three. There's two cars stopped in turn three. Watch for cars there. And it's a red flag, Nico. Be positive plus on delta time. Positive.
Daniel RICCIARDOYeah, sorry, I didn't see the McLaren.
Daniel RICCIARDOYeah, sorry, I didn't see the McLaren.
EngineerIt was right ahead of you.
Daniel RICCIARDOYeah, I was too late when
EngineerI looked up. OK, are you able to bring it back?
Daniel RICCIARDONo, no, I crashed.
Pierre GASLYI like to do another lap with this tyre.
EngineerOkay, you know your targets.
EngineerAre you okay? You okay?
Daniel RICCIARDOI also, uh, my hand. Okay.
Yuki TSUNODAI have something, something wrong. Traffic.
EngineerOk, Juki, what's wrong? Something with the car or just traffic?
Yuki TSUNODAI have massive slowdown from the ice. Accidentally touched the ship down.
EngineerOk.
EngineerAnd on brake balance Lance if you think you can take it we'd like to do minus two minus two for the whole lap for the next push
EngineerOK, so Pierre's first lap at 11.76, how was the balance this time? The
Esteban OCONbalance was OK.
EngineerOK, very good.
Nico HULKENBERGYou sure most people do double back-off feels like to me to do one
EngineerOkay, I don't know. I only know from the morning
EngineerWould you like a front flap adjustment?
Max VERSTAPPENNo, the car is just medium speed, weird things, I think with the brakes, I don't know, it's really weird.
Lewis HAMILTONTires are probably too hot
EngineerWhich do you think? Yeah, let's focus on the long run, I think that's a reasonable estimate OK
EngineerAnd suggest to go rearwards of brake balance for turn two already. And sock two.
Valtteri BOTTASCopy.
Charles LECLERCYeah, that's a good lap for this box.
EngineerSo you have, for the moment, you have purple third sector.
Charles LECLERCOkay, straight.
EngineerTrack is clear. Track is clear. You should get 15 time flaps.
EngineerBut it's just going straight into go one straight to go one and we'll start a run
EngineerOkay, so next gap is behind me. So behind you've got Alonso five seconds. He's got Gasly right with him and then there's nine seconds back to Stroll. Okay, so everyone's on high fuel. So we're happy to drop back behind Alonso and Gasly if that helps.
George RUSSELLThis boat is both on top of each other here.
EngineerOpen a bit more the gap to the car in front please. Okay,
Charles LECLERCyou can push now.
EngineerSunoda 7 behind Try to manage the gap to the car in front Open a bit more the gap to the car in front please Sunoda 4 and a half behind
Charles LECLERCOk you can push now I am doing it
Pierre GASLYDon't want to get overtaken
EngineerYeah, copy that mate Got a six and a half second gap behind if you want to drop back
EngineerOK mate, for info, almost all other cars are on the medium or the soft tyre, high fuel.
Esteban OCONOK copy, do you need me to know the times?
EngineerYeah copy that, so Norris and Pierre on the soft both lapping low 1 minute 16s.
EngineerSo Ocon's still doing, alright, 16.4s he's doing, and Lance on medium, he's just been making a gap.
Fernando ALONSOYeah, let me know if this gap you need more or less, so Lance and myself we have the same gap with the car in front.
EngineerYeah, copy that, so Lance has got 4.5, you've got 3.5, so you can make a half a second bigger gap would be good. It's pretty close. Copy,
Fernando ALONSOmaybe both we can make more or whatever, good info.
EngineerYeah, copy that.
George RUSSELLJust check the rear left please
EngineerLooks ok at the moment
George RUSSELLYeah, it's running a bit wide, can you go down and see?
EngineerThat was perfect, Kev, and we'd suggest trying EB1 to help the rears as well, to help stability.
EngineerCan I check aerobalance? Check aerobalance at this time?
Fernando ALONSOI need 0.4 more.
EngineerYeah, copy that, copy.
EngineerAfter turn one, spark four and mode attack.
EngineerI
Sergio PEREZlove getting hot
EngineerPlease repeat please repeat
Sergio PEREZThe front left getting hot and the rear left
EngineerYeah, copy
EngineerTry to prepare a turn 10 less and a wider line in turn 10.
Max VERSTAPPENI have a car in front
EngineerFernando at 2.5, so don't ruin his run there's a train behind you
EngineerOkay, last time lava.
Logan SARGEANT30 years, really bad.
