EngineerIt
Kevin MAGNUSSENwould have been nice if the tyres actually came out at 70.
EngineerIt looks like they were about 67 degrees when they came out.
EngineerOkay, so Albon in front in P3 didn't do a prep lap, expected to pull away from this.
EngineerYes, we'd like to introduce more energy to the front tires that cool down just a little more than we expected
EngineerV-Bell 3. V-Bell 3. Brakes are looking good.
EngineerDon't forget to reset your shape. We'll go recharge off and let's go
Sergio PEREZHave a look, because there are a lot of cars doing very odd things.
Nico HULKENBERGBut that didn't work. Second lap. Second half of that second lap, I was taking a step back. So not like this again, for sure.
EngineerGreat. Very poor.
Oscar PIASTRIIt doesn't feel as easy to repeat as P3, and the grip doesn't feel as good.
Lando NORRISYou can just straggling a bit more with the acceleration, rear locking, 10-3, last corner, so on

EngineerDid
Lewis HAMILTONyou miss that, George Byer?
EngineerNegative. We'll halt station.
EngineerYou can use more tyre template so you can push on use energy when you can use energy
EngineerNo, just stay negative on the Delta. We're good for time.
Lando NORRISI'm happy, but I don't know if my deployment didn't go correct.
Esteban OCONEvery time we're going to quarry, I got vibration in the outlap.
EngineerOkay mate, understood. We'll have a look.
EngineerCleared for me aye, good job there, and that moment at 12 closing in lap, good
Carlos SAINZjob
Alexander ALBON10-9, 10-10, just lost everything. Well, everything, just 10-9, 10, all the overstay, and then those
Engineerwere hot.
EngineerYuki, we have an issue with the GPS data, but I can see it on my screen and against Albon, only place is turn 11, breaking late entry.
EngineerSo, good transition, so Strat 2, good to go.
EngineerIt's in a single, so stroll in front of us, it's in a single cool down lap.
EngineerWe want to drop back now slightly.
EngineerAnd focus on.
EngineerAnd in front of the stroll, there's a couple.
EngineerThere was a little bit there.
EngineerGo one Russell for
Fernando ALONSOLimit on the safety car line with us
Fernando ALONSOYeah, but we have a limit on the safety car line with both of us.
EngineerThat is P15 for us there.
EngineerWe're going there little steps
Lewis HAMILTONAre we safe or not?
EngineerNegative. No, we've just been bumped.
EngineerI think that was a good lap Kev, the car just didn't have the performance for you, so I think that was good effort, well done mate.
EngineerYeah, cover that mic.
Valtteri BOTTASYeah, it's
Engineera step 22, so it gets a bunch of wrong
