EngineerIt's very calm, so less than 3 kph, so practically no wind.
EngineerAnd then though, just as a heads up, this could be a bit like a winter Barcelona 10am levels of grip.
EngineerThe
Lance STROLLbrake pedal is very long, looks like there's an issue. Now it's a BBW fail. Another BBW fail.

Valtteri BOTTASYeah, the track is dry everywhere.
EngineerOkay, good.
Lando NORRISYeah, I'm losing grip pretty quickly at the minute

Esteban OCONYeah, we have good
EngineerHow do you feel balance is turn 15 and 13, just with a diff?
Esteban OCONYeah, we have good front end there so all good
EngineerAnd purple C3 position five, fifth gear. There's 16 seconds to beam and turn nine.
ZHOU GuanyuThe rest are okay, but the car fell too much on the nose, like I said. And it's turning on high-speed corner and change of direction also.
EngineerLando, I would turn the CSL off and just bring it back please. It's too slow for other cars that can't come past you. Turn the CSL off and just bring it back please. It's fine.
EngineerCSL 6 6th gear please.
EngineerSo, just look for Tom and the boys.
EngineerAnd Daniel, the critical corner for tyre temp will be front right tyre.
Alexander ALBONDaniel, balance is pretty good, just a bit lazy, change of direction.
Daniel RICCIARDOYeah, I still feel real limited on entry.
EngineerWe need to box now. If we're happy to just do fast slow fast on the next tyre we could do one more lap on this set, I don't know if you've got a preference.
Esteban OCONI picked up a little bit more understeer in the medium speed corners.
EngineerOk, understood, it's good to know.
ZHOU GuanyuI'm jumping to one, jumping to nine.
Engineerthe exit of turn 14 240 kph that is C12 purple C12 and clear air if you can move to the side
EngineerSo report from Ed, everywhere an improvement on that lap, Ollie, apart from turn 7.
EngineerLaunch map on. Launch map on. Conservative drop from the pit stop.
EngineerFernando, on this next time lap, can you close the DRS before turn 15, about 20 metres before you start braking?
EngineerPlease could we have a CSL6 after turn 5? Votash still 5 seconds behind, time up.
EngineerAnd you can use special two in turn three, four, if it helps.
Max VERSTAPPENTo start the lap, I pressed Richard to release us very slow, somehow, from the battery.
EngineerCopy that, thank you.
Fernando ALONSOGears are learned.
EngineerYeah, already they're okay. Gears are okay.
EngineerAnd then beat Alonso behind on an outlap.

EngineerWhy I like school I was so much slower than mine beyond beyond beyond Alex, please be on Alex
EngineerSo compared to Hülkenberg, biggest loss confirmed was turn 15.
EngineerAnd I know we're happy with a single cool down lap and Joe also not.
Fernando ALONSOHow is he in front of Ocon?
EngineerSo it's Albon ahead of Ocon, both out lap. Dewan still seven seconds behind.
EngineerShe can break around the low side. Ok, 3 cars coming behind an outlap, make sure you steer it. And we need a good braking in the left, she can break around the low side. Charge up last corner.

Engineerpace up on the way in that's good and we can keep our pace up on the way in boxing
Engineerjust out of the final corner and doing might open the lap he's just out of the final corner and we think so rather than pit we would just stay out to convert to continuous on this time
EngineerWe'll

Engineerjust did that. Two short burnouts. I didn't hear it. Standard left hand side. Two short burnouts, standard left hand side.
Nico HULKENBERGIt's quite tough to see the light. Can we move it a bit to the left, further out to the left, the lights? Because it's more or less in the vision here, the line of the halo.
EngineerWell, Alphaka, that's your first FP1. Congratulations. Nice and clean.
Franco COLAPINTOYeah, thank you, James. I'm happy I could enjoy every single lap of it.
