The session, message by message

  1. Kevin MAGNUSSENHaas05:12:290:15

    EngineerOK Kev, would you like a front wing adjustment?

    Kevin MAGNUSSENNo,

    EngineerI don't really see an obvious direction. OK, copy that. So drive through the pit lane slowly to do another start please.

  2. Lance STROLLAston Martin05:13:450:08

    EngineerWind is 19 kph gusts. We'll get the tires changed and then you will fire the car up on Harry's signal

  3. Nico HULKENBERGHaas05:14:170:08

    EngineerSo we see like a tailwind going into 12 and into 14 and then the variable wind as you go through 14 15 16

  4. Logan SARGEANTWilliams05:15:150:24

    EngineerOk copy plane, onto another start, focus on the drop, you are 9 and deep So drop on target, long plateau, control release Still no burnouts, everybody is reporting low group There

    Logan SARGEANTis no way I was 9 deep Copy

    EngineerQ at pit exit, come again on the clutch

  5. Logan SARGEANTWilliams05:15:500:08

    Logan SARGEANTI don't think I was 9 deep

    EngineerOk we can cross check, just do your thing and we'll see you back here on the second procedure

  6. Logan SARGEANTWilliams05:16:260:17

    EngineerOk, you go in, go to the car, past the pit entry, there was a margin of 20m on the pit entry breaking point You drive through, we'll do another start and you were 6m deep, 6m deep

    Logan SARGEANTWait, I'm barely dropping it

  7. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes05:17:000:03

    Lewis HAMILTONIt covers, guys. It covers.

  8. Pierre GASLYAlpine05:17:260:12

    EngineerAnd we can go recharge on, and we're going to the grid. It is not needed from our side.

  9. Esteban OCONAlpine05:18:000:14

    EngineerThere

    Esteban OCONare some sparks coming from the front wing, the straight, I'm not sure if all is OK.

    EngineerOK, understood, we'll have a look.

  10. Oscar PIASTRIMcLaren05:18:040:20

    EngineerOscar are we going to the grid this lap, how is the tyre grip, copy,

    Oscar PIASTRIwe charge on tyre grip, the tyre grip is ok, not amazing but not terrible either, copy

    Engineerthat

  11. George RUSSELLMercedes05:20:050:18

    George RUSSELLI just need to make my drinks tube short with all the force in my hallway, it's going right down my throat.

    EngineerYeah, copy that, we'll have a look on the grid. Fuel is 0.4 safe.

  12. Fernando ALONSOAston Martin05:21:070:14

    EngineerFernando from Mikey, can you hear me?

    Fernando ALONSOYes

    EngineerCopy mate, just a radio check

    Fernando ALONSOYeah, loud and clear Yeah, it's all good for me as well

  13. Valtteri BOTTASAlfa Romeo05:54:520:08

    EngineerOkay Valtteri, so track temp is still at 19 degrees and wind looks to still be the same as on the opposite grid.

  14. Pierre GASLYAlpine05:57:331:09

    Engineerand everything is a bit cold right now so we need to hold the pre-start revs a little bit longer yeah

    Pierre GASLYjust for the boys if you can really keep the covers when we put the covers the blankets blankets off here

    Engineeryeah we can do that so we need recharge on and pit lane speed limiter off now but once the engine is fired up we'll go pit lane speed limiter on we'll do the bike point learn and then hold pre-start revs a little bit longer and then we can do the start worst scenario one sock six and then energy usage on the start is high so we need to try and avoid overtake on the first lap copy

    Pierre GASLYwe're

    Engineerin a good spot mate so let's just focus on having a clean race we know something can happen around here but let's just stay focused and see what we can get it's

    Pierre GASLYgonna be fun let's be on it all race and sure there's a great result waiting for us yeah

    Engineercopy that

  15. Kevin MAGNUSSENHaas05:59:290:26

    EngineerOkay Kev, all cars around us are on new C3, apart from Hamilton directly behind, who's on a used, sorry, everyone around us is on new C4, apart from Hamilton behind who's on used C3. Then new C4s all the way back to the last row when they're on, Joe's on, and Piastri are on hard, and the last two cars are on soft.

  16. Fernando ALONSOAston Martin06:00:320:06

    EngineerMake a little gap and then you can lean on the tires as best you can through there and some high-speed weaving down to five

  17. Alexander ALBONWilliams06:01:560:13

    EngineerTry and do brake warming into 5 will help kick start everything. OK, let's try and get some brake warming again. Push and hold the button, push and hold the button, brake warming, then we can accelerate.

  18. Esteban OCONAlpine06:02:210:05

    EngineerOkay, make as much weaving as you can. Let's focus on warming the fronts.

  19. George RUSSELLMercedes06:03:050:16

    EngineerSo it'll be five burnouts at the end of the yellow lines at turn 17. You sure that's enough tyres filled to the cog? Happy with five. So yeah, we'll do five burnouts. The final burnout will be at P8 Magnussen.

  20. Valtteri BOTTASAlfa Romeo06:06:070:21

    Valtteri BOTTASYeah, he's just spun in front of me as someone hit me from the back, so... Fuck yeah.

    EngineerOkay, you confirm hit from the back as well, question?

    Valtteri BOTTASYes.

    EngineerOkay, copy. So far, tyres okay. You're struggling to assess the front wing, can you feel something?

    Valtteri BOTTASHard to say yet, it's so local.

    EngineerCopy, copy.

  21. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull06:06:130:11

    EngineerMax, I think we're happy you were ahead when you went top track. Happy to stay there.

    Max VERSTAPPENOf course I was ahead.

  22. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes06:07:280:07

    Lewis HAMILTONI lost so many places when I got here.

    EngineerYeah, copy Lewis, it's all shuffled a bit.

  23. Charles LECLERCFerrari06:07:460:12

    Charles LECLERCThis needs to be addressed now

    EngineerIt

    Charles LECLERCis a joke if he gives the position he wasn't in front at the apex and he pushed me wide So he needs to give that position back

  24. Carlos SAINZFerrari06:08:000:09

    Carlos SAINZI think when Ricky and Owen had the green picture, it was impossible to give the car a truck for everyone.

    EngineerStop it.

  25. Pierre GASLYAlpine06:09:420:06

    EngineerSafety car stay out, safety car recharge on, we're staying out.

  26. Pierre GASLYAlpine06:10:540:20

    EngineerSo we've got Norris off at turn 12

    Pierre GASLYIt's gonna be like that the whole race so It's gonna be a long evening, but let's try to make the most of it.

    EngineerYep. We'll stay on top of it Just keep an eye on your Delta and then work the tires

  27. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes06:11:470:10

    Lewis HAMILTONNorris, come off. His debris came off, hit my front wing.

    EngineerOK, copy. We'll have a look.

  28. Charles LECLERCFerrari06:12:510:14

    EngineerSo Charles the case is with the stewards and we stay where we are in terms of positioning Okay, at the moment is like this if anything changes I will let you know

  29. Valtteri BOTTASAlfa Romeo06:14:100:07

    EngineerOkay, suggest high steering inputs to warm up those fronts and weaving on the back straight when you get there

  30. Lance STROLLAston Martin06:14:470:21

    EngineerOK lads, so we're at P15 at the moment, Joe ahead, on the hard Perez behind, also on the hard Sainz behind him, and then Fernando behind him. So Fernando's spun into 1, and has fitted the hard under the VSC, so you know the plan from here, just maintain these tyre temps, it'll be low grip on the restart.

  31. Nico HULKENBERGHaas06:15:340:12

    EngineerSo right now, you're P9. Sonoda behind in P10 still has his race start soft. And then behind him, everyone else is on a hard, with the exception of Ricciardo is still on his medium.

  32. George RUSSELLMercedes06:16:470:13

    EngineerSo tyre temps now are dropping below where the blankets would normally sit. So these are very very cold tyres Yeah

    George RUSSELLmate I know Like

    EngineerI'm in the wet at the moment I know

  33. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull06:17:270:15

    EngineerJust info at this stage Max, the situation at turn 1 on lap 1 with the stewards, we are not going to reverse on positions so I'll leave it with you.

  34. Esteban OCONAlpine06:17:470:15

    Esteban OCONTell Haas what he's going through in front of us. So he's

    Engineerdone it. Yeah. Okay, understood. We weren't expecting that Okay, mate. We're happy with that. I believe there shouldn't be overtaking under the safety car anyway, so that's up to them

  35. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes06:18:170:04

    Lewis HAMILTONCan't overtake until turn 1, huh?

    EngineerTake the line.

  36. Oscar PIASTRIMcLaren06:18:530:06

    EngineerSafety car in turn 14 now. Recharge off ready for the restart.

  37. Pierre GASLYAlpine06:19:250:09

    EngineerSo gap to Russell 0.6 Albin behind 0.2

  38. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull06:19:510:08

    EngineerSo we'll take a few laps now Max as the tyres are cold, so just watch slip at both axles, gap 1.6

  39. Daniel RICCIARDOAlphaTauri06:20:200:09

    EngineerMode 6, click, overtake. Yeah, very hard with grip on tyres on our car. We just have to be a little bit patient.

  40. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes06:22:460:12

    EngineerSo radio is breaking up, DRS has been enabled. Oxidation okay or not? We're standby, so we'll stay where we are on the oxidation numbers.

  41. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull06:23:040:15

    EngineerYou have been given the five-second penalty for that incident, but you're already two seconds ahead behind, so we'll just keep eking that gap out to the stop.

  42. Sergio PEREZRed Bull06:23:370:07

    Sergio PEREZFernando, this is Javier, eh?

    Engineer0.6

  43. Yuki TSUNODAAlphaTauri06:25:020:13

    EngineerBox, box, box, box, Yuki, box. Too

    Engineerare you

    Yuki TSUNODAdoing?

    EngineerAnd you're back in ten.

  44. Charles LECLERCFerrari06:26:320:08

    EngineerWell, I

    Charles LECLERCwas not sure if he went to the country end.

    EngineerOkay, copy that.

  45. George RUSSELLMercedes06:26:450:11

    EngineerI

    George RUSSELLcan't do this, man. I don't

    Engineerwant

    George RUSSELLto keep Casley behind.

  46. Carlos SAINZFerrari06:28:450:10

    EngineerAnd we need action to call the car, where is to stop the car, where is to stop the car.

  47. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes06:28:530:04

    EngineerNow get reports of grading on the medium runners.

  48. Pierre GASLYAlpine06:29:330:07

    EngineerThe battery is slowly recharging we can go sock nine sock nine

  49. ZHOU GuanyuAlfa Romeo06:29:450:09

    ZHOU GuanyuNo one entry, Lilliput State, Lilliput State,

    Engineerentry,

    ZHOU Guanyuentry minus one.

    EngineerConfirm, confirm, you can drop the entry.

  50. Esteban OCONAlpine06:30:210:06

    EngineerSargent instructed to lift and coast into turn seven, Piastri one second behind.

  51. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull06:31:130:13

    Max VERSTAPPEN1.8 not that not that pretty

    Engineerunderstood High speed death question.

    Max VERSTAPPENYeah, I need some more open

  52. ZHOU GuanyuAlfa Romeo06:31:570:12

    ZHOU GuanyuWait, he's cutting a recorder and then he went in, in 6, 7.

    EngineerCopy, we notice, copy. Overtake available.

  53. Pierre GASLYAlpine06:32:310:05

    Pierre GASLYThe clipping is killing me

  54. Carlos SAINZFerrari06:33:520:09

    EngineerFernando 0.9 behind, 0.9, has been reported slippery track at the end of the straight, where? There, slippery track reported.

  55. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull06:34:200:09

    Max VERSTAPPENThe tires are going to get really f***ing wet.

    EngineerI understand, Max.

  56. Pierre GASLYAlpine06:35:010:08

    EngineerCopy that. If we can use second gear in sector two, it will help.

  57. Carlos SAINZFerrari06:35:510:08

    EngineerHamilton with a puncture in front, Hamilton with a puncture in front of Stroll and 300m Lyko, still the target.

  58. Pierre GASLYAlpine06:36:250:06

    Pierre GASLYI need two blocks, I'm losing too much time. Yep.

    EngineerCopy, mate.

  59. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes06:36:430:08

    Lewis HAMILTONCause I'll stop it.

  60. Charles LECLERCFerrari06:37:150:04

    EngineerAnd Gasly behind just beat it.

  61. Nico HULKENBERGHaas06:37:340:09

    EngineerOK, turn 3 and turn 11, keep managing because people are struggling with graining on hard.

    Nico HULKENBERGYeah, copy.

  62. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes06:39:270:02

    Audio only, no transcript

  63. Charles LECLERCFerrari06:39:290:18

    EngineerAnd how many more laps you can do at this pace, question?

    Charles LECLERCWell I'm losing this lap, the front right is going a little bit slow, I'm going to lose some time from now on, maybe 3 tenths slower than this lap.

    EngineerCopy understood.

  64. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes06:40:070:09

    EngineerSo you've got Ricciardo's car ahead, five seconds ahead to Tsunoda, and then a pack six ahead of him.

  65. Oscar PIASTRIMcLaren06:41:040:07

    EngineerGood job Oscar. These tyres are now in. Based on the first stint we can use the rears a bit more. Tyres look good.

  66. Charles LECLERCFerrari06:42:240:22

    EngineerAnd tyre phase update when you can. Tyre phase update when you can, please. So reference again, Pérez with the heart, 38.4.

    Charles LECLERCBut, uh, how this new heart, or what? Like, who is the founder of SACA?

  67. Charles LECLERCFerrari06:42:560:06

    EngineerSo Perez was the fastest, 38.4

  68. Alexander ALBONWilliams06:43:300:06

    EngineerPiastri behind you is double hard so he will need to pit again, Piastri will have to pit again.

  69. Esteban OCONAlpine06:43:500:04

    EngineerThe heart has grain for some people, so let's think about management.

  70. ZHOU GuanyuAlfa Romeo06:44:170:04

    EngineerSafety car window open.

  71. Fernando ALONSOAston Martin06:45:020:04

    Fernando ALONSOHe is struggling with the front a little bit now.

  72. Esteban OCONAlpine06:45:330:11

    EngineerCar in front, Albon, five lap old hards, I believe everyone around us is going to end at this point, four cars further ahead, still to stop, that puts us effectively P8 at the moment.

  73. Fernando ALONSOAston Martin06:46:240:27

    Fernando ALONSOYeah, definitely the front is struggling.

    EngineerYeah, copy. We'll go up on aero-balance. How much more would you take?

    Fernando ALONSOYeah, I don't know.

    EngineerWhat are you thinking? 0.6 maybe? Yeah, 0.5, 0.6 I was thinking. Yeah. The other car, Lance, has got similar front graining problems. The best thing for our race is to continue a bit longer though on this set, so use your tools to help you.

  74. Alexander ALBONWilliams06:47:170:12

    EngineerAlex for doing a good job on tyres. I've got Joe three cars ahead. He's on 22 lap hard. He's yet to pit. He's at 1 minute 40.

  75. George RUSSELLMercedes06:50:100:16

    EngineerStaffing behind at point four. Let's not let him push you along too much Do what you need for the tires

  76. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull06:50:240:11

    Max VERSTAPPENATC just sends in on me, check my tyre, front wing

    EngineerTyre is ok for now Max, stay out for now, tyre is ok

  77. Charles LECLERCFerrari06:50:490:09

    EngineerAnd watch for Debris turn 12, we believe not on the racing line.

  78. Pierre GASLYAlpine06:51:280:08

    EngineerSo Pierre just keep watching for debris in turn 12 and we really need lower gears in the slow corners

  79. Pierre GASLYAlpine06:51:540:06

    EngineerSafety car, stay out, stay out, recharge on.

  80. Pierre GASLYAlpine06:52:330:06

    Pierre GASLYWe've been mailed out call

    EngineerPlease stay out stay out

  81. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes06:52:480:03

    EngineerSo box box

  82. Esteban OCONAlpine06:53:520:33

    EngineerIt was close with Verstappen, I'm not sure. Yeah, we're having a look at it, don't worry. Hold position for now, I'll advise. OK, mate, so let's focus on keeping some temp in these tyres. So Verstappen in front, just come out on the hard tyre. Stroll, the car behind, also hard tyre. So these guys have a roughly five lap tyre advantage on us. Everyone at this point will be going to the end. Piastri, a couple of cars ahead, still has to stop. We're P6 at the moment.

  83. Sergio PEREZRed Bull06:55:020:09

    EngineerSo there'll be 23 laps after this. Update on the running order. Leclerc, yourself, Gasly, Piastri, Max, Ocon, Stroll.

  84. Pierre GASLYAlpine06:55:270:06

    Pierre GASLYHow many laps are mine? Our

    Engineertyres are 10 laps old.

  85. Nico HULKENBERGHaas06:55:550:15

    EngineerOkay Nico, so this this set will get us to the end. We had moderate front right grading on the last set but it was pretty good. It's two times by the safety car line. Safety cars going into five now.

  86. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes06:56:340:05

    EngineerYour pace has been strong, so the safety car is going to be in this lap.

  87. Charles LECLERCFerrari06:56:390:10

    Charles LECLERCI nearly lost it. The tires are f***ing cold.

    EngineerOkay, copy. That...

  88. Charles LECLERCFerrari06:57:020:10

    EngineerAnd we are hotter by 8 degrees compared to Sainz on tires. And reminder, slow intro as much as you can.

  89. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull06:57:190:16

    EngineerMax, just a Stuart update again. Turn 12 incident with Russell is under investigation.

    Max VERSTAPPENOkay, it just looked like he just didn't see me at all. He just turned in onto my wheel. Because he didn't expect me to pass him there.

  90. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes06:58:250:04

    Engineerand wind has suddenly picked up

  91. Carlos SAINZFerrari06:59:180:05

    EngineerRussell has a five second penalty, five second penalty for Russell.

  92. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes07:00:050:06

    EngineerSo we've got Hülkenberg then Magnussen and Sargent ahead of them, should be pushing them back.

  93. Alexander ALBONWilliams07:00:380:13

    Alexander ALBONGet me off the green 10 switch quickly The thing tiger is now not not anything more than this.

    EngineerI think it's green 10 position 7 position 7

  94. Yuki TSUNODAAlphaTauri07:01:100:11

    EngineerWe are happy with your tyre management.

    Yuki TSUNODASorry?

    EngineerWe are happy with the tyre management. Keep doing this.

    Yuki TSUNODAOk, good.

  95. Fernando ALONSOAston Martin07:01:370:05

    EngineerFernando the wind is stronger now the wind gusts are stronger

  96. Nico HULKENBERGHaas07:03:000:11

    EngineerIt's okay Nico if you can do what you did on the last set you will go longer your tire will be better at The end than all these guys they're gonna push too much

  97. Pierre GASLYAlpine07:03:140:09

    EngineerSo gap to Verstappen behind, 0.5, and we really need to manage this front right in 7 and 9.

  98. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes07:04:230:06

    EngineerSo gap at 0.9 ahead, seeing a real strong tailwind into turn one.

  99. Valtteri BOTTASAlfa Romeo07:05:100:06

    EngineerOK, Valdry, we suggest to protect the front right a bit more. Turn 12 braking.

  100. Kevin MAGNUSSENHaas07:05:270:04

    EngineerWind strength has increased noticeably last few laps.

  101. Oscar PIASTRIMcLaren07:06:110:12

    EngineerVerstappen 0.6 There

    Oscar PIASTRIis a struggle in a bit

    EngineerUnderstood, this pace is good, we don't want to lose time with Verstappen Priority, keep extending, the car is behind it, dropping back

  102. Esteban OCONAlpine07:06:220:09

    EngineerOkay, we want to hold position for the moment, please hold position for the moment think about time management

  103. Logan SARGEANTWilliams07:06:450:03

    EngineerI

    Logan SARGEANThave an okra up here.

  104. Oscar PIASTRIMcLaren07:07:520:06

    EngineerOscar, turn one suggests to avoid the apex kerb upsetting the rear.

  105. Logan SARGEANTWilliams07:08:070:07

    Logan SARGEANTI just have lack of grip everywhere, high speed, over rotation.

  106. Oscar PIASTRIMcLaren07:08:470:06

    Oscar PIASTRIWe're just getting better again.

    EngineerUnderstood.

  107. Nico HULKENBERGHaas07:09:180:11

    EngineerShape two, shape two, it will be 15 to go with the line, you're matching lap time with Ricciardo behind keeping the gap, Sainz in P10 is six seconds ahead.

  108. Charles LECLERCFerrari07:09:430:04

    EngineerGood job

  109. Daniel RICCIARDOAlphaTauri07:09:530:10

    EngineerOK, the group is still very compact, 15 more laps, keep the head down.

    Daniel RICCIARDOAffirmative, pass the head off idiot.

  110. Pierre GASLYAlpine07:10:140:06

    EngineerSo we need to watch the rear slips on turn 12 watch rear slips turn 12

  111. Nico HULKENBERGHaas07:10:460:05

    EngineerSergeant ahead of Kevin is on same tire life.

  112. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull07:11:000:06

    Max VERSTAPPENLet's move together here.

  113. George RUSSELLMercedes07:11:190:11

    Engineerso gap ahead 0.5 behind 0.6 so we just keep on top of that discipline turn 3 this race will come to us

  114. Sergio PEREZRed Bull07:12:010:08

    EngineerStay with them, double toto, we work together.

  115. Esteban OCONAlpine07:13:340:19

    EngineerOkay Esteban, we've been instructed to hold position, both cars have, and we need to increase management 3 and 4 please. Both cars have been told to hold position, save more 3 and 4 please.

  116. Nico HULKENBERGHaas07:15:200:16

    EngineerI

    Nico HULKENBERGthink Kevin and I have a lot more space, so we need to get by, but they're quick on the straight.

    EngineerYeah, copy that. It's the same for Albon, who's in P8, seven seconds ahead. He's holding everyone up, too.

  117. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull07:15:450:06

    EngineerI'm just going to have to work hard to break this Tomex.

  118. Pierre GASLYAlpine07:16:220:14

    Pierre GASLYWhat's going on with my battery?

    EngineerSo focus on gear usage third gear turn one

    Pierre GASLYDoesn't change anything. I can't recharge

    Max VERSTAPPENYes, let's go guys That was quite fun out there At least I had fun, maybe a little bit more difficult for us, but it was good I'm sorry, I tried everything I could there on the last lap to give him a tow

    EngineerIt was good Max Yeah, well done mate, you did your best to help him out there, well done

  143. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull07:36:500:12

    EngineerInto the pit lane please Max, or should I call you Elvis? No, no, don't do that!

  144. Logan SARGEANTWilliams07:37:571:27

    EngineerOK, that's checkered flag, checkered flag, P16, please pick up some rubber offline, pick up rubber offline. It's been painful, probably more of a defensive race than what we wanted. That was a race, you did everything you could mate.

    Logan SARGEANTWhat a shame, sorry guys.

    EngineerPoint for Alex, P12, he's just 7 seconds up the road. He was struggling as well, pace seems to be coming a bit back at the very end.

    Logan SARGEANTWell the problem was I just had to defend every lap, and it was just killing me, and I couldn't set good laps.

    EngineerOverall, I think we took a lot of positive from this weekend. We were after this quality we wanted to nail, we did that this weekend, that's ticked. This race was tough, but it's the kind of thing we need to learn as well, to do and to manage. So we'll review what we could have done differently, but we did it, we brought the car home. So that's good, job done mate, ok? Back to Park Fermé, pick up rubber please.

    Logan SARGEANTWell Logan, it's the best we had with the car we had out there today. We still got one more round to go, still 7th in the championship, so let's keep fighting for it. Yep, we will, never stop.

  145. Sergio PEREZRed Bull07:39:560:44

    Sergio PEREZAh f**k, I wasn't expecting him, we were so slow on the straight there, ah f**k! Well now Checo, that's a great podium and that gives you P2 in the championship, now you drive a great race from the back of the grid. Well that's

    Engineerall

    Sergio PEREZguys, just slow on the straight there.

    EngineerHey, P2 in the championship buddy, that's more important too.

    Sergio PEREZYeah it's been a tough year, but in the end, yeah I think we grew up a lot after this season so yeah well done, well done to the whole team, it's

    Engineerbeen

    Sergio PEREZan incredible year and nice to get that 1-2 in the championship. Yeah well done mate.

  146. Alexander ALBONWilliams07:40:550:36

    EngineerOK, pretty tough, not easy but nice job, well done.

    Alexander ALBONYeah, sorry the radio was so bad, the greening cleared off on the last three laps, a bit late, but yeah.

    EngineerYeah, copy your last lap, that was your quickest. Alex, it was the best we could do with the car we had, well done. We've got one more round to keep fighting for our position.

    Alexander ALBONYeah, yeah, a bit frustrating but you'll try to understand why.

  147. Sergio PEREZRed Bull07:41:460:26

    Sergio PEREZYeah, you really did a good job there Checo. I mean coming from the back of the grid With that downforce level as well was really really super drive. So second in the championship Well done

    EngineerYou'll then be taken for a nice little drive around the track again

  148. Daniel RICCIARDOAlphaTauri07:43:591:54

    EngineerOk, sorry it's been a tough weekend for us, sorry for that, we'll learn from that. On the very clear warm-up tyre issue, as the safety car restarts, we'll look into it.

    Daniel RICCIARDOYep, yeah understood. Yeah I think it was all pretty clear where we struggled, we'll try and understand that. Sorry we couldn't really do much more.

    EngineerOkay so we finished P14, so actually Williams didn't score, and our direct competitors didn't score, and the UK retired two laps to go with an issue on the car. And I don't know why but we have a yellow in turn 17 before the pit entry, so keep your eyes open, not sure what's going on there.

    Daniel RICCIARDOOkay, understood.

    EngineerAnd let's make sure... Once we get to the yellow section we don't overtake anyone please. Okay Daniel, so when you stop the car it's P1, then wait for the dash, and then P0. So obviously a very hard weekend with the performance and that being up there, but I think we keep making good progress on our side with comms and the setup on things, so we're getting there.

    Daniel RICCIARDOYep, understood. All right, yeah we'll debrief back inside. I think it's all clear, as you mentioned the restarts, it was honestly so hard, it was fun and real.

    EngineerYeah super clear. And then the first restarts we believe that's why we triggered so much issue afterwards on the medium.

  149. Carlos SAINZFerrari07:45:590:24

    EngineerAnd we are P4 in the driver championship, and four points behind Mercedes. Good, it will be a nice last race. Good job Carlos, it was a good one. Thank you Fred, I was an AC out there today, a big mess all around.

  150. Lance STROLLAston Martin07:47:140:40

    EngineerP19 to P5, that is fantastic work Lance, brilliant timing, not a hard tyre, well done.

    Lance STROLLYeah, great race.

    EngineerOK Lance, just heads up, we've got a yellow through turn 17, could be something on the track, so just keep an eye, exit of 16 through 17. So ahead of you is just Ocon, Perez, Leclerc, Verstappen, the race winner, behind you Sainz, Hamilton, Russell, Fernando, Piastri. Piastri got fastest lap, so we've taken 10 points from McLaren today, so that's an excellent day's work, well done.

  151. Kevin MAGNUSSENHaas07:47:310:10

    EngineerOkay Kev, E13, I think you did a great job with what you had under you, so well done mate. Sorry it wasn't better though.

    EngineerOkay Oscar that was P10 and fastest lap. A shame what happened there with the puncture, pace was looking really strong but you know we take the points that are on the board unfortunately it was only the point for P10 and fastest lap but you know pace was good so nice recovery after qualifying.
