Australian Grand Prix2024 · Practice 2 team radio

EngineerRecharge on. Sync is good.

Yuki TSUNODAThe next soft run, let's remind ourselves to follow the data for our lab.

EngineerOkay, that strat 9 could help return 13, so we'll have a look at that.

EngineerOkay, good to hear. Sensors look good to us, so let's do...

Pierre GASLYThere's the front tires. Too much understeer, especially turn four.

Kevin MAGNUSSENWell, this lap, it's a very big snap both in the first lap and this lap in turn three. Yeah.

EngineerLet's check what's going on. It's behind. Joe, three seconds behind.

EngineerSo, currently P6, you are level to Alonso, who's P1 at the moment until that last corner. And Valtteri at 4 seconds.

Sergio PEREZYeah, we try the two clicks.

EngineerUp two clicks, copy.

EngineerSo Oscar, feedback, final sector was quicker than in P1, just looked like the tyre prep on the outlap was compromised.

Sergio PEREZThe visibility is very poor. Let's get a dark tear off, please.

EngineerYeah, I'll stay on it.

Esteban OCONI had to read the plan quite a lot in the straight line there.

EngineerCopy that. Russell, three seconds time blab.

Engineerand purple c7 position one is good with boxes lap and radio check oscar

EngineerAnd do you want another go? Yeah. Okay.

Logan SARGEANTAlright, touch the gravel. Alright, touch the gravel.

EngineerYeah, okay, we'll check the car.

Esteban OCONOkay, so still have some understeer down the floor and the bouncing has to come at high speed

Yuki TSUNODAI don't know,

EngineerI

Yuki TSUNODAfeel like this dumper is slightly worse, or I feel more bouncing.

EngineerI'm happy to put more temperatures on this. More temperature.

EngineerSo happy to do good speed through the final sector. Tires are getting there, but it's still two degrees cool.

EngineerHigh as a minus six, so we can keep leaning on them. Weaving out of 10, down to 11 and good braking. Fernando's still 17 behind.

Lance STROLLYeah, I messed up the last corner. Yeah, no drama, mate.

EngineerIf you would like a flap adjust, double call for the tyres is okay.

George RUSSELLThat Ferrari was going dangerously slow on the straight, sacks, blind corner.

EngineerHow was the red button turn 13?

Sergio PEREZYeah, that was good. That was an improvement.

Daniel RICCIARDOIt didn't feel any better from what we were trying to achieve on balance.

Daniel RICCIARDOYeah, I just want to start with a bit more temperature copy

Engineerso what will help what we see is overheating through the corner in turn three

Nico HULKENBERGSorry, that was a bit annoying there, breaking into M3. That wasn't ideal.

Sergio PEREZHow far are we at?

EngineerThat's two and a half tenths off the Aston's. Tenth and a half off the clerk.

EngineerWhere's Snappen behind?

ZHOU GuanyuYeah, I'm too late bro.

EngineerI

ZHOU Guanyumissed my back tree quite early before the line

Max VERSTAPPENCome on, man.

Yuki TSUNODAAh, f***ed up.

Max VERSTAPPENThis left front tires are too much on this year in the last sector. The rest of the cars are quite nice.

EngineerAnd for last corner, try to be back across the wide line.

Charles LECLERCThat doesn't make sense, what you're saying. I mean, I don't understand what you're saying.

EngineerYou need to be further to the left, further to the left on entry.

Charles LECLERCOkay.

EngineerBlue mode 7. Blue mode 7.

Daniel RICCIARDOYeah, do you want me to make a gap to the stakes? Yeah, let's

Engineerdo

Daniel RICCIARDOthat. Yeah.

Max VERSTAPPENYeah, it's a bit unnecessary, I think.

Engineerit will use a level tech is it on 14 as well to pass him

EngineerI was going to consider a sharper lift for turn five to help the front left. We're quite quick through there compared to others.

Pierre GASLYI need more support mid-corner at 10-1.

Engineer25k wind into turn one with the following. We need to manage the rear locking on the initial hit on brakes.

EngineerJust try to manage more in 10. That was a bit too much less left.

Charles LECLERC5 cars on a race run?

EngineerYes, so we have 5 cars on a race run behind you pushing

Daniel RICCIARDOYeah, I could tell a little bit of drag on the front, but nothing too crazy at the moment.

George RUSSELLHow many laps are we gonna get? How many laps are we gonna get?

George RUSSELLYou're right.

EngineerIt's a pace to Paris ahead looks good if you do want to make a gap there's six seconds behind but happy if you're learning to stay here

EngineerYuki, now you can push on tires. No more saving.

EngineerAnd avoid the short shift between 13 and 14.

Lewis HAMILTONWhat's

Engineerthat,

Lewis HAMILTONhow's

Engineerthe

Lewis HAMILTONpeople doing?

EngineerLeclerc was 22.8 last lap, medium time.

Lewis HAMILTONYeah, something's wrong.

EngineerAnd a minor, white h7, position 1. It is white h7, position 1.

EngineerLaunch path, launch path.

EngineerSo the soft fire's on, back out, push the exit, push the exit.

EngineerMode attack, mode attack.

Carlos SAINZYeah, get out of the way.

Charles LECLERCDo we need to box and try the other tire or is it just the end of the session?

EngineerIt is too late, 1 minute 20 left

EngineerOkay, Joe. Okay. Okay, Joe. If the...

Engineerat five

EngineerThis will be the final lap here

Engineerso it'll be a waste of a lap the gap if you need to otherwise it'll be a waste of a lap and engine 13 position four

Engineerlaunch white and that's the checkered flag bang out for the grid launch white h13 white h13

Max VERSTAPPENWhat is he doing? Look at this! My god!

EngineerAnd that's the checkered flag paying out for the grid launch. White H13. White H13.

George RUSSELLNot too sure what we're

Engineergoing

George RUSSELLto learn this time. Have a think.

Max VERSTAPPENThat car ahead of the Mercedes, I think he's having a f***ing coffee.

EngineerI think he definitely should stay off the coffee.
