ZHOU GuanyuThe cable is getting stuck a little bit like last year. Make sure we can get it fixed.

EngineerCopy that, we will fix.

Max VERSTAPPENBe a

Engineerlittle

Max VERSTAPPENbit careful with

Engineerthe

Max VERSTAPPENblowing because this air can't breathe.

EngineerNice and aggressive on the tyres during this formation lap.

Esteban OCONThe bite point find didn't work, the first one.

EngineerOkay, understood. We'll have a look at that.

EngineerSo

George RUSSELLyou're gonna let me back pass or?

Lando NORRISLewis needs to give the position back, he just brakes way too late, he committed to it so he needs to give two positions back

EngineerUnderstood Lando, we've already raised it with the race director

Lando NORRISYeah but they're going to do it for George but he just committed to going off so of course he could brake a lot later than me you know

Lewis HAMILTONThat's why we're doing it.

Yuki TSUNODAI have a puncture, I think. Yeah, I perished, just perished. Just perished, honestly.

Engineeras

Alexander ALBONsoon as you get within half a second it's incredible how little fight we have

EngineerAnd target gap to Sainz, we need three seconds. At the moment it's 1.0.

Carlos SAINZI could go forever at this place.

EngineerYeah, it looks like they're gonna sacrifice the clerk

Charles LECLERCI think Carlos is clogged up.

EngineerCopy understood.

EngineerMax, I will say it again, there is no merit at this stage in being within one second of Ocon. Signs are still doing 40.3s. We've been here before, we've been hurt before. You might not think you are pushing, Max, but the effective V-ratio, as we've seen before, is very low.

EngineerGap to science target 3

EngineerSo gap to Sainz in front 2.3 and we need five seconds in five laps

EngineerLet me know

George RUSSELLwhat our best shot of win of this race is, what I need to do.

EngineerSo we need to keep the pressure on these Ferraris.

EngineerOscar, possible brief and light rain shower approaching, could be here in five minutes, pit lane would get wet first. On the radar this would be class one and last only a couple of minutes.

Charles LECLERCWhat happened there?

EngineerWe had to hold you for traffic

Engineerwhat do you think is the plan for this the plan is to keep the pack together so don't pull away it'll be doable it's max behind on used hard and watch for debris still, debris on track still

Lewis HAMILTONThat was all okay in the box, right?

EngineerYeah, copy. Yep, that's all okay. Just trying not to hit car, that's all. Let's slow it down. Yep, roger.

Nico HULKENBERGFeel like I've lost brake efficiency. Are they cold brake

Engineertemps are okay. We're checking everything

EngineerRussell one second behind, if you keep the pack bunched up he cannot do two stops, Russell cannot do two stops.

Sergio PEREZHamilton, run off the track, he went off.

EngineerYeah, we saw it.

Sergio PEREZCome on, give me the position now.

George RUSSELLYeah he's managing a lot, he's very slow, I guess he's trying to back us up.

EngineerKeep an eye on these tires

Max VERSTAPPENSo driving on ice

EngineerI want to go

George RUSSELLfor this wind.

EngineerYeah, we understand. We're on the same page, mate.

EngineerYou

Carlos SAINZlet me know when you think it's good to push. I still have one second of facing half.

EngineerThat's good.

Sergio PEREZLet's box. Let's box. Let's box. Stay

Engineerout. Stay out.

EngineerScience reporting he still has a second of pace in hand

Fernando ALONSOThis is un-driveable.

EngineerSo Norris has DRS, let's start pushing science along now

Esteban OCONOh

Engineerno!

EngineerScience

George RUSSELLis driving unnecessarily slow, he's three, four seconds up on his delta.

Nico HULKENBERGWhat the hell, it lost, it must have been, it's lost to state legal then I'm very surprised.

EngineerBoth Mercedes pit it new medium. I

Charles LECLERCthink it is the right choice Consider even a lap later

EngineerWe'll come back to you So we are staying out

Carlos SAINZHow is the space?

EngineerRead faster if you can, till the end.

EngineerOkay Valtteri, no more shifts, no more shifts, we need to stop the car on track, stop the car. Okay, sorry for that.

EngineerThat

Lewis HAMILTONwas a gap 7

Engineerseconds Norris

Lewis HAMILTONToo big a gap for us to catch

EngineerNegative, let's go for it

Charles LECLERCYeah, they're real right guys he's completely gone

Carlos SAINZCop to Lando, every lap.

EngineerCopy that.

EngineerRussell 1.1 Hamilton 2.2 Yeah I got it, I can see that

EngineerLando 0.8 behind, 0.8 with DRS, Russell no DRS Yeah, it's on purpose Copy that

Charles LECLERCI'm just trying not to put it in the world.

EngineerCopy that.

Lewis HAMILTONGeorge needs to pick up the base if he can.

EngineerCopy that.

George RUSSELLAh!

EngineerNo!

George RUSSELLNo!

EngineerAnd P1, baby, P1! Vamos!

Carlos SAINZVamos Fred! Vamos Ricky!

EngineerWhat a mega job you did there! What a smart race!

Carlos SAINZYou know what? This is my first smooth operation in Ferrari! Smooth operator!

EngineerWell done

Lando NORRISOh f**k

EngineerI hit the wall Okay just bring it back carefully Bring it back carefully I don't know but f**k B2 Let's go

Lewis HAMILTONMago job boys, Mago job. Such good pace at the end there. Yeah mate, you looked super strong. Yeah, great work by everyone.

EngineerAn

Lando NORRISawesome job, boys and girls. Thank you so much. It was a tough one. Amazing result. Thank you. I love you all so much.

Carlos SAINZRicky! We won Singapore, my friend! Did I... great? Did I cry? What a ledge!

EngineerKen Piffo

Charles LECLERCGrandissimo! Grandissimo Carlos

Lewis HAMILTONAnother lap man!

EngineerYes mate, yes! Just one more lap and I would have done it but great job there mate, so that's P3 and fastest lap

Lewis HAMILTONSir, yeah I hear you Toto

EngineerThanks

Lewis HAMILTONso much for the support for the positive words It's not the easiest of weekends but good result in the end, thank you

EngineerGreat

Lewis HAMILTONpit stops guys

George RUSSELLOh, no,

Engineerno, guys, what a rookie, oh my goodness.

Max VERSTAPPENYeah, I gave it all. I was a bit unlucky. Still, I think, some OK points, I guess, after a difficult weekend.

EngineerYeah, well done, Max. That was a really strong drive today. As GP said, we got had over by the safety car. But your comeback after the stop was very, very strong. So without a safety car, I think it could have been a better race for us today. But good job.

Max VERSTAPPENYeah, pushed till the end. It was quite good. Quite cool.

EngineerIt's been a hell of a run. And yeah, it was always going to come to a close at one point. But brush ourselves down and go again next weekend.

Max VERSTAPPENYeah, it's OK. They can take one. We'll go again next week.

EngineerCheck of flag Oscar. Well done mate. Well done. Finished P7. Really good job mate. 10 places in the race. Fantastic.

Oscar PIASTRIThank you. Well done. And well done to Lando as well. I saw he was there for a lot of the race. Well done everybody. Thank you to my guys. I know we're missing a couple of people.

EngineerNice

Oscar PIASTRIto get some points after yesterday. So thank you very much. And looking forward to Japan next week. Cheers guys.

EngineerNice one mate, well managed. Well, it's not easy to do that last stint and I had to stay patient doing the first stint But well managed P6

Pierre GASLYYeah, very good recovery guys Very good recovery I'm very happy I managed to turn things around from Friday to now, so can be very pleased with that and Yeah, let's keep working, keep working, there is potential a little bit to put our elbows out

EngineerThat

Pierre GASLYwas fun

Engineerand just again just fantastic so happy for you happy for us thanks

Kevin MAGNUSSENman likewise mate good job man proud of everyone proud of everyone guys in the garage thanks man

Kevin MAGNUSSENEven you, Gunther.

EngineerJoe, we finished P12, solid race from your side, started from the garage, from the pit lane, very good race, bit unfortunate with the safety car, but good performance Joe, P12.

ZHOU GuanyuYeah, thank you guys, it was a good try, we found something quite positive going for next year's event.

EngineerHi Nico, it's IO here. Yeah, you are right. Missed opportunity. Really sorry. We should have stopped under VSC You missed out on the points. Apologies about that

EngineerOk, P8 in the end there. P8. Didn't catch a break today. Saved the car, BSC. All at the wrong time.

Sergio PEREZYeah, f***. Nothing worked. Ah, what a weekend overall, guys. Um, yeah. Let's move on to Japan.

EngineerYeah, bring on Suzuka. We'll have some fun there. Uh, just for your awareness, we're under investigation. Well, there is an investigation for a BSC infringement. Uh, when you came out alongside Alex. Um, investigated for causing a collision between you and Alex at turn 13. Obviously not saying anything about which way that's falling, just saying it's being looked at.

Sergio PEREZYeah. I mean, ain't none of them. I think we're, we're okay. That was a pretty busy 250 years race, Checo. Um, but, uh, you know, the pace car, or safety car, came out just wrong time for us, but, uh, well done for sticking with it right to the end. Yeah. Yeah, guys. What a weekend. Anyway. Um, let's go on to Suzuka. I'm sure it will be a lot better.

EngineerYeah, bring on.

Sergio PEREZDid Hamilton get anything for leaving the track?

EngineerNo, they let him off for that one.

Sergio PEREZHaha. Okay.

Alexander ALBONOK, checkered flag, checkered flag, P11, P11. It's just f***ing dirty. Did he get anything for it? He's under investigation for causing a collision with himself and then Lawson as well. Desperate, completely desperate. Well done everyone, I think the strategy was amazing there. We almost pulled off an amazing race, I still think we did. This is maybe our weakest track, so if we're like this on our weakest one then he's looking good.

EngineerHe

Alexander ALBONtried to do that move to me two or three times before and I had to miss him and just pull out last minute to stop him from hitting me. So sorry, but I can't do that every single time he tries to take a lunge and take avoiding action. I thought he would have this one eye control but he didn't.

EngineerIt was a good race Alex, as you say. The strategy was on point, you did the best with what you had there. Good work, we'll review it after the race.

EngineerAnd that's P9 for you today, and I think that's probably going to stay P9, it's 11 seconds to Pérez But that's the Red Bull, good effort, good fighting up there Okay mate, P9, you should be pleased with that, we've got Pascal ahead of us I think you've defended very very hard, that

Liam LAWSONwas a good job Mate I gave that everything, there's nothing left Yeah

Engineerthat's what we need, that's why you're here mate Okay very good race mate, and you've got a lot of coverage, you should be pleased, you should be pleased Same again next week, no time to rest

Liam LAWSONOh copy that, thank you guys for the hard work, it's good to get a couple of points

EngineerI

Liam LAWSONfeel like we've missed out on a bit but you guys did a good job, and I really gave that everything

EngineerAnd we will do a practice start festival in Japan, practice start festival in Japan, please not I

Liam LAWSONknow mate, I know, apologies guys because that's not good enough Honestly

EngineerThat's okay, that's why we're here, we'll keep working And good job mate, and I'm happy to get points, it's been a long long season so far, I'm happy

EngineerI

Logan SARGEANTgave you everything from lap one. I never gave up. I'm sorry for the front wing. I need to clean that up.

EngineerA lot of learning, mate. All we can. Good approach. Good way of looking forward.

Logan SARGEANTIt was a good race, Logan. Good learning for you there and pace at the end was strong.
