Kevin MAGNUSSENThere's no rear in the car. Super oversteering.
ZHOU GuanyuUpshift is harsh.
Fernando ALONSOAt 12.13, with the steering a little bit to the left today.
Esteban OCONIt's quite a lot of vibration
Sergio PEREZYeah, it's
Engineera
Sergio PEREZgood for the tip
EngineerAnd we do see the attempts still needs to come up a lot of people struggling
EngineerThe track is wetter than expected, but it's going to improve quickly, all the cars on track.
Yuki TSUNODAThai Bracket as soon as possible please. Is Kulingdak quite correct?
EngineerThat's clear.
EngineerLet's do the thousand bank gets as soon as possible. Yes, we are trying to tell them
EngineerOk, tyres are coming up. A little bit patient on Rikidza.
EngineerSo Max, we've dropped over 10 degrees relative to the previous outlet, so it's going to take a while to bring these up.
EngineerOkay, we have Yuki 5 behind, don't drop too much anymore
EngineerThe only switch needed is go push before the last corner.
George RUSSELLI mean the track is definitely drying a bit now
EngineerI
George RUSSELLmean the track is definitely drying a bit now.
EngineerTires coming into the window now, a few drops around.
Fernando ALONSOI'm behind Piastri.
EngineerNo, there's only four seconds behind him.
EngineerI need to cool down, I think. Cool down, cool down.
Valtteri BOTTASIt's at a spin, all good.
EngineerYeah, copy that.
Valtteri BOTTASGood, no grip at all man.
EngineerOkay, you can use recharge but try and keep the tires in the window
EngineerSo, currently P2, two tenths to Leclerc, and just noting that Norris using all wider lines, six and seven. He got Sainz's car behind two seconds on a lap.
George RUSSELLIt's a relatively dry road, turns 9 to 15. I can feel I'm damaging my tyre but I'll
Engineerbe
George RUSSELLhaving a box.
EngineerLando Minor, White H-4, position 1, White H-4, position 1, more deployment.
EngineerSo your lap time was like P6, P7. Only losses to Hamilton and Sainz is turn 1 and turn 9, so it was a pretty good lap. Would be okay to push next lap. Leclerc, 4 behind on a push.
Fernando ALONSOYeah, I need to give you more info what the others are doing, where I'm losing time.
EngineerAnd diff mid minus one suggested diff mid minus one
EngineerLet's start the next lap a bit on a warmer side.
EngineerWe'll go green six, position three for the next lap.
EngineerPre-select engine 4 and driver default Delta zero on
EngineerAnd turn 12, turn 12, you can use more help, that's good. Radio, I will see the middle 7. Copy.
EngineerI
Nico HULKENBERGthink we can box, I think we know about the balance, it's just getting these in-between conditions now.
EngineerAnd a weather update for you. The rain might get worse in 15 minutes time.
Alexander ALBONI'm going to try and just back off a little bit, it's sector 3 and then go again
Alexander ALBONCan we try a different mode or this mode?
EngineerNow we're staying in this one. Any other option will be single lap. So Hockenberg slow eight ahead. You've got 13 seconds back to Joe.
Logan SARGEANTMy friends are going away quite a bit
EngineerSuggest blue b6 blue b6
Daniel RICCIARDOYeah, so I'll say similar limitations compared to yesterday, so yeah, very similar comments.
EngineerWe have engine 1 available if you need, otherwise we stay full.
EngineerCyan intensity, sector one.
Max VERSTAPPENIt's starting to rain now as well by the way
EngineerYes, we're away with that Max, thank you Vox
EngineerJust have a feel of the grip in this condition, but if you feel that's not teaching you anything
EngineerOk Daniel, as expected it's starting to rain, it's level 1, and we expect level 2 in around 5 minutes
Sergio PEREZYeah, it's raining quite hard over here.
Yuki TSUNODARotation go better in the last bit.
EngineerUnderstood.
EngineerI think look at the radar. This is the worst of the rain right now
Sergio PEREZFrom the left side
EngineerSo with this level of rain, just expect the standing water to be increasing a little bit more.
Valtteri BOTTASAnd the tires don't feel great, so at the moment I'm not learning much here, limitations are still the same.
EngineerOk mate we could use the open modifier turn 9 and 15 to help there, we've got Leclerc on a time-lapse 11 seconds behind I couldn't hear, I couldn't hear, I got it
Daniel RICCIARDOClutch was really sensitive, pulling away.
EngineerI
Esteban OCONhave no content left.
EngineerIt's hard to keep temps.
EngineerYeah, copy. Yeah, that's just the water level
EngineerLance pushing three behind. We think it's worth trying another click or even two clicks forward and brake balance.
EngineerSo Carlos did a 40.9 second lap you did a 40.4 so faster
EngineerIt's heavy rain in pit lane now. Take care. Could be class three in pit lane now.
