EngineerSo we're seeing a big tailwind exit of turn one through two three impacting that traction
EngineerIt's looking pretty windy out there.
George RUSSELLAlrighty, yeah, sorry the pace wasn't there as we would have liked Let's
Engineeruh,
George RUSSELLyeah, let's keep on working once
Engineeror twice
George RUSSELLBit of understeer through eight.
EngineerI locked up my front Too late on the brakes. Too late braking last corner. Push in the in-lap for timings. Push in the in-lap. Box, box. We'll show you the garage. You can push for timings. Car, the head around. Pull down.
Lewis HAMILTONCheck the front wing of the sitter wall.

EngineerTyres on target for the used ones, you have Paris 4 seconds in front.
EngineerFocus on brakes and mode push, mode push.
Engineerand just update on witness the same conditions as previous run
ZHOU GuanyuI think I'm bleeding quite a lot on my lap, compared to the lap before I did, the Q1.
EngineerOkay, in terms of main losses to Max, we're looking really strong, 4-5-6, nice job. Turn 7-8, just getting on throttle, a bit of a loss. And then over-pushing the entry of 12, compromising the corner speed and the exit.
EngineerGood warm-up on the brakes and Ocon on a time-lapse 10 seconds behind
EngineerWe also got the back right available for that back.
Audio only, no transcript
Pierre GASLYYeah, I struggled with the rotation, 7-8, I'm losing code a bit there.

Engineerstruggle
Pierre GASLYto turn the car so I think
Engineerwe
Pierre GASLYcan do 12kts.
EngineerAnd we are going through the pits, to avoid traffic on the main straight, through the pits, for the double cool. Copy,
Carlos SAINZyeah.
EngineerEntry of four, entry five, four hundredths, lower the charge.
Sergio PEREZExit the world on the entry of four.
