EngineerGood luck, brother, and be fast like the cheetah, baby. Copy, champ. Thanks.

EngineerI'm

George RUSSELLreally struggling with this stereo mate, I'm not going to let anything get to me.

EngineerOkay, copy that, we'll keep discussing.

Max VERSTAPPENYeah, it's very hit-and-miss like one millimeter offline and

Max VERSTAPPENMy hands have always got stuck as well, again, through the last corner.

EngineerI

Nico HULKENBERGlost it.

Carlos SAINZBrakes are new.

EngineerThey are used, but good warm-up on the brakes for the Whiteman.

Yuki TSUNODAWhat the f**k is doing on the street this idiot.

EngineerI don't know you Kim. I have no idea

Carlos SAINZBricks.

EngineerCan

George RUSSELLwe make this any change?

George RUSSELLCan we make this any change for the second run, or even now, before we do laps?

EngineerThe

George RUSSELLtrack is very dirty.

ZHOU GuanyuLots of fantasy for you.

Esteban OCONOkay, yeah, track is pretty smooth, apart from the fast chicane, the slow chicane, sorry But very bad grip

EngineerWe've

George RUSSELLgot vibration on the rack as well

EngineerLoud and clear, on the steering we'll have a look Can

George RUSSELLwe make this any change for the second run? Or even now?

EngineerNegative, nothing in session that we think we can do about this

George RUSSELLEven if it takes half an hour?

EngineerEverybody is complaining about the grip, Sainz pushing behind, Sainz pushing 1.5, watch your mirrors.

Lewis HAMILTONYeah, I got a bit of a feel for the car now, we should just... I'll stroll behind in three seconds, you can have a stroll...

EngineerOcon 2.5 behind pushing So weaving where you can On his rear tires Ocon 2.5 behind pushing Gasly 2 behind him

Alexander ALBONSuper low grip.

Alexander ALBONSuper low grip

EngineerOkay, we know the Delta time isn't working on your dash at the moment. We think it affects all cars at the moment. We're looking for a fix now.

Logan SARGEANTI can't

Engineermove

Logan SARGEANTmy head, man.

EngineerCopy.

Sergio PEREZthe grip is a little bit in and out

EngineerOkay, main losses to Max, look to be over pushing a bit turn one compromising the exit through 2-3

EngineerSo think about entry 9 for stability. Think about entry 9 for stability.

Esteban OCONOkay, locking the wheels on the big brakes, last airpin, and turn 1.

EngineerYeah, a lot

Pierre GASLYof sliding everywhere, rear, mid-corner and traction, just feels like very low grip.

EngineerOK, next car behind is at 13 seconds. Can

Charles LECLERCI do a cool down and go again?

EngineerYes, yes you can.

Esteban OCONOk, I'm always locking the reels late entry

EngineerSo we've got Norris time-lapse three seconds behind we recommend the global shift forwards of brake bias so half or one percent

Engineerout of turn 16 purple C3 position 2 purple C3 position 2 fifth gear and then purple C3 position 3 sixth gear Ocon a couple of seconds behind Bottas just leaving turn 16

ZHOU GuanyuWell, we're missing the bones

Engineermainly exit turn 8 and the final corner

EngineerIt's around the low side so just get a good stop for 17 otherwise all in sync couple cars leaving pit lane now

EngineerAnd if you can have a think about ride and balance on the way in, then we'll have a chat in the garage about what we do for the next run.

EngineerOffset zero, charge off and go.

EngineerFor reference you're currently P3-3185. Niko is P1 on 31-4-0.

EngineerOkay Yuki, we go again for the last push. It was a false neutral, nothing to worry about for the car, so you just drive normally.

EngineerOkay, Yuki. Yeah, what's happened?

Yuki TSUNODAYeah, why what's happened

Yuki TSUNODAI don't want to have Faust and Yistro in the same place like I had.

EngineerJust make sure you're driving at a sensibly slow speed and that will do

EngineerBottas 5 seconds and we are missing big brake pressure into turns 1, 11 and 17

Sergio PEREZI'm practicing in the first sector.

EngineerOK mate, brake 5 is also an option for this out-level.

EngineerSome of these cars behind might keep their pace up if they're going straight into a high fuel run

EngineerSo we have the same wind as before

EngineerOkay, expect the first car pushing to be Piastri, still 15 seconds behind, and currently we are in P11.

EngineerStill locking the rails on the peak, last corner for Egosport. Yeah, we were just discussing that, so we think you might need to go forwards by us for that corner. Unfortunately, I know it's not to your preference, but for the time being.

Carlos SAINZSo what were your total suggestions?

EngineerLeft toggle for one Seven and seventeen left toggle one seven seventeen all clear from behind would warm up on the brakes

ZHOU GuanyuMassive traffic.

Engineeryou could then go straight in and get four laps continuous or you could do the next lap pushing with DRS and then do a good sergeant two behind fast sergeant one and a half

Engineeryou can have blue nine position five blue nine position five so consecutive no drs

Pierre GASLYLost the rear and I speed.

EngineerIs the car okay?

Pierre GASLYYeah, it's all good. I just completely lost it. Very strange.

EngineerSo go one and push, go one and push, Russell two, Russell two, Russell two, let's go, let's go.

Carlos SAINZIs zero three, yeah?

EngineerCorrect. Zero, three, on.

Carlos SAINZYeah, when you get out of line, it's very dirty, so...

EngineerSo for now I'm sure you can feel it but rear tyre temperatures and pressures just keep going up and up So we think even more lift and coast will be even more lift and coast

EngineerSo you could try a bit further forward brake balance, forward brake balance, but use yellow button turn seven.

Fernando ALONSOYeah, we talk about all these things in the meeting, mate.

George RUSSELLOh my word.

EngineerI'm trying to get out of the way of everyone. Hey Fabio, it's very busy there.

EngineerUp to you if you want to push on the inlap, just mind for traffic

Charles LECLERCNo, I won't, I'll be preparing for the stop

EngineerUnderstood

Charles LECLERCUh, yeah, slow shifts.

EngineerUnderstood, we'll check it.

EngineerMOTB green FC position 7, MOTB green FC position 7 Yes, yes, don't call it in the slow speed, we'll

Carlos SAINZgive you a second, I cannot

Engineerdo

Carlos SAINZit there

EngineerUnderstood, I call it a turn 10 by F5
