6. Esteban OCONAlpine16:04:55

   Engineer: Okay, understood. So the plan for here is to do another fast slope fast, then on the in-lap we'd like to push on some of the straights without DRS, just to get a read on that. I'll ask you which ones and where as we go.

7. Daniel RICCIARDORB16:05:23

   Daniel RICCIARDO: Yeah, quite low grip, particularly the rear.

10. Esteban OCONAlpine16:07:57

    Esteban OCON: Yeah, very loose balance entry of four there

11. George RUSSELLMercedes16:09:10

18. Carlos SAINZFerrari16:14:59

    Engineer: I

    Carlos SAINZ: think the truck is getting slower with the wind on the... on the temperature.

    Engineer: Understood.

19. Yuki TSUNODARB16:16:22

    Yuki TSUNODA: I think the balance is good at high speed, slow speed turn 3 and last chicane, especially turn 16, first part of the chicane.

20. Pierre GASLYAlpine16:17:01

    Engineer: OK, for rear locking in turn four, we could go torque 10.

21. George RUSSELLMercedes16:17:56

    George RUSSELL: Can you check the high speed if it's working as you expect?

22. George RUSSELLMercedes16:18:02

    Engineer: So George we're happy if high speed is working as expected and you can add more support in the high speed if you need that

23. Daniel RICCIARDORB16:18:50

    Daniel RICCIARDO: Around a little wide, Exeter 13, just to check, I think it's fine, just to check.

24. Sergio PEREZRed Bull16:19:11

30. Oscar PIASTRIMcLaren16:31:22

    Engineer: Oscar, we're going to go to high fuel now. As a team we're keen to split between the cars and Lando's already done the medium so that puts you on the soft.

    Engineer: Protect front left turn 15 protect front left turn 15

38. Lando NORRISMcLaren16:42:31

43. Daniel RICCIARDORB16:47:58
