The session, message by message
Yuki TSUNODAI have a quite a lot of others there.
EngineerYeah, copy.
Lando NORRISI went a little on the exit curb in turn 4, so right side, just worth checking the floor.
EngineerBrakes are quite hot on the front, probably need a fan Yeah, copy, we're on it
Carlos SAINZFor your info, it feels in
Engineerthe National Anthem
Carlos SAINZtailwind on the straight, which I think will make the overtaking with a less TRS effect.
EngineerOkay Lando, time information, all cars around you starting on the medium, Perez and Russell both starting on the hard, and in the back half of the grid, Sainz, Stroll, Gasly and Tsunoda on the soft. Have a good race.
Yuki TSUNODAA lot of cars are soft, so maybe plan A is a good idea, if I couldn't make the positions.
EngineerThink this is going to be terminal, please.
Lewis HAMILTONSorry about that guys.
EngineerDon't sweat it Lewis, it's gonna be a long hot race.
George RUSSELLAny other advice to get these temps down?
EngineerWe're still looking at it.
EngineerSo it's the front right brake that is running hot so see what you can do
EngineerIt looks like Alonso at the head of this queue is playing the long game. He's got a gap of three seconds in front of him to Sainz. Looks like he's looking after his tyres and that's why everyone else is bunched up behind.
Fernando ALONSOI need to let him go and not with this guy we lose 30 seconds battling, he doesn't understand
EngineerYeah, copy
EngineerOkay, that's eight laps. I'll be with Flan A. Question? Yeah,
Logan SARGEANTI just want silence until I need something.
EngineerSwitch position Sierra.
Carlos SAINZI think it's too early. I don't feel too bad. Copy, understood.
Kevin MAGNUSSENRussell is using DRS with no-one in front.
EngineerHe may have had it from when they pitted, Kev.
Kevin MAGNUSSENHe was using it on the straight down to turn 2.
EngineerCopy.
EngineerOkay, we're looking for maximum pace to target lap. Maximum pace for target lap.
Oscar PIASTRICopy.
Carlos SAINZIf I see Czechoslovakia going to pass me, I will call Vox, but not yet. Understood, good call.
EngineerThank you, let's have a time.
EngineerSo Norris got the undercut on Piastri, but he has, well, it was a very strong outlap.
Lewis HAMILTONNow they've got nine seconds all of a sudden, that's a crazy amount
Audio only, no transcript
Oscar PIASTRIwhat do you want me to do here for
Engineerthe moment look after the tire priority target lap we want to get to plan a target lap
EngineerSo Lance is 2.4 ahead, he'll let us pass once we get to Dearest.
EngineerOkay, so if we let Lewis through this lap
Lewis HAMILTONWhere am I losing all the time? I'm just a car slow.
EngineerSo a lot of it is straight line and then turn 11 and turn 14.
Lewis HAMILTONTurning the engine down.
EngineerNegative, we are doing things to improve temp situation though.
EngineerYour spare limit.
EngineerInitial thoughts on this compound?
Max VERSTAPPENIt's not bad but the tide feels definitely a bit more stiff so it's easier to have a moment or whatever
EngineerUnderstood
EngineerTroll is coming in. He's on a three stops. We are not responding. We are faster than him
EngineerTenth to two-tenths quicker than the Ferraris.
Fernando ALONSOYeah, let's put some pressure.
EngineerYeah, sounds good, sounds good.
EngineerExcellent work on the defence there Kev.
EngineerGap seven seconds podiums on
EngineerOk Lando, what are your thoughts plan A versus plan C?
Lando NORRISYeah it depends what everyone else is like to be honest, the tyres are not bad but they don't feel that good
EngineerOk understood
Audio only, no transcript
EngineerWhich side are you thinking about? Thinking hard, it seems our best choice.
EngineerWe
Charles LECLERCaccept ourselves in terms of strategy, like this it doesn't make sense.
EngineerCopy understood, we are discussing it and we'll do it at the end.
Charles LECLERCWhat do you mean at the end?
EngineerI've been stopping all... We are on it, we are on it, okay?
EngineerWe'll pick the pace up though, just keep the pace up as high as you can.
Lewis HAMILTONThis is as fast as it goes mate, that's
Engineerwhat I'm
Lewis HAMILTONsaying.
EngineerDid Perez push you off turn 2? Did you get enough room?
Oscar PIASTRIDidn't leave me much space.
Audio only, no transcript
EngineerPerez has fit in a used medium, our ties are newer
Lando NORRISthan his, we need ties at the end Yeah, I know, I'm trying to manage everything, I'm pushing everything
Max VERSTAPPENThere are so many marbles if you turn one offline, it's crazy. Takes like a whole lap to get them off.
EngineerUnderstood, Max.
Lando NORRISGot to Paris 6.6. Yeah, I don't I don't I'm pushing mate
Lando NORRISThey have to get out of the way, he's had so many blue flags! He's not racing for anything!
EngineerEverything okay? Just checking in? Yeah, all
Max VERSTAPPENgood.
George RUSSELLI'd seriously like you to consider boxing, it's dropping big time.
EngineerWe're guaranteed to lose position if we do that.
George RUSSELLYeah,
Engineerbaby.
EngineerNot a bad race car is it, you controlled that beautifully, congrats. Well done mate, that is win 44 for you, 12 in a row and that is history, that is absolute history today, that's a fantastic, fantastic performance.

EngineerWhat a difference 24 hours makes.
Max VERSTAPPENI think it was the dinner.
EngineerThat was absolutely impressive, I mean that first lap. And then they didn't see you for the rest of the day, so stunning. Yeah,
Max VERSTAPPENthe car was really, really good today.
EngineerSo we're going to send pedals up because he was around in 1988 when McLaren did 11, so 12 in a row is something to be really, really proud of and great to have Checo up there as well.
Max VERSTAPPENYeah, that was a great recovery as well. Two cars on the podium, so really good.
EngineerMax Ford at Swerth, you got your fastest lap as well.
Max VERSTAPPENYeah, very lovely that.
EngineerYeah, and your fastest pit stop, 1.9 seconds faster this season, so it's been a good day all round.
Max VERSTAPPENYeah, was that the first one? Because that one felt the best.
EngineerActually, apologies to Max, it was Checo that actually got the fastest stop, but yours were pretty slick as well.
Max VERSTAPPENOh, it's in the team, that's good.
EngineerIt's not what we wanted, but yeah, it's a great final stint really strong
Lewis HAMILTONTough day today guys Yeah, this wasn't meant for us, but thank you so much for the hard work. Let's keep pushing We've got a lot of changes and improvements we need to make this car. So let's go ASAP
