George RUSSELLI've not managed to do any burnouts so I think we just go straight out
EngineerSo the boss has the car behind we think is high fuel running he's three seconds back if he comes past We'll need to leave a gap to him
ZHOU GuanyuThe brakes, those are quite bad efficiency.
EngineerThere we go, they are counting the time to work a bit more before opening the lap.
Max VERSTAPPENWait, I don't know why but the whole weekend already this steering super weird for me
EngineerGot a bit of front
Esteban OCONlocking in
Engineerthe last corner. Understood, so we've got a car off somewhere, Joe, off at turn 1.
ZHOU GuanyuBut I have no idea what's happening with the car, but the car is so strange by just lock up all the rears
EngineerSo we've got Joe off track, so this may go red. So red flag, red flag, keep that positive, no overtaking. And we'll go to strap mode one.
EngineerYeah, red flag, red flag. Stop the car, pit exit. Stop the car. Engine off. Engine off. Guys, we come to pick you up.
EngineerRed flag, Oscar, red flag. Delta positive, no overtaking. We box this lap. This is for Joe, who has clipped the barriers in the pit exit on the outside of turn two.
ZHOU GuanyuMan, I have no idea what's happening with the car
EngineerAll ok All ok, you can continue Joe
ZHOU GuanyuNo, I'm a little bit stuck with the rear wing But the car is so strange man, it just lock up all the rears
EngineerOk, switch off, Brazil
ZHOU GuanyuYeah, sorry, but something is real wrong, strange here
EngineerCome here, we'll double check
Engineertie attempts still on the low side so mode is good to double push if we need
Charles LECLERCRear brake hot we
Engineerignore it lost sensor
EngineerWas that a call for Hamilton or tyres? It's just the tyres are graining like crazy, so there's no point to push it. Copy.
Yuki TSUNODAHow come the tire like this cold? Like ridiculous. I need a build.
EngineerAyuki, you can go for a build.
Alexander ALBONAre we okay with the brakes? Like everything feels off. Stopping power feels terrible.
EngineerSo, tried to keep the tyre temp. It's currently P2 overall. Ricciardo is four behind. I think he's backed off.
Fernando ALONSOYeah, bouncing into five.
EngineerYeah, saw that copy. Also eight, I think.
George RUSSELLFront left is open and up
Sergio PEREZEh, what the f*** the hell is that?
Alexander ALBONI think our cooldowns are way too slow, the tyre is so stiff, especially on the front, every lap
EngineerI suggest we box and we'll move on to the tyre No, no You still want to keep going on this one? We do want more though Alright, switch to the RSL3 then
EngineerAnd the pace looks good. I've
Lewis HAMILTONgot some rear graining.
EngineerYeah, copy, we can see that inboard shoulder. A little bit on the left.
Sergio PEREZIt's all wrong, don't get it. Hold on.
EngineerOK, Daniel, do you need one more lap or are you happy to move sustainable?
Daniel RICCIARDOUm... We can move sustainable.
EngineerCopy that. Mode 6, charge off. Currently P2. Two tenths ahead of Norris. Entry 7. And you can go back up in space. Charge off. And many cars have boxed now. So let's do the sustainable now.
Yuki TSUNODAIt's so strange, the VR is so strange. Yeah, let's
Engineerdo
Yuki TSUNODAthe hospital boat now.
EngineerCopy.
Yuki TSUNODAEjector variable, there's a field stall strength sliding like hell. Very angry.
EngineerUnderstood.
EngineerAnd Carlos behind on an outlap on soft.
Charles LECLERCHow many laps do we have with this?
EngineerNot many, I would do maximum push, charge, push and then we get another push, charge, push on the two softs and that's it. With quick turnarounds.
Charles LECLERCStill lots of pulling to the ass, and still **** on the brakes.
EngineerCopy.
Audio only, no transcript
EngineerAnd Carlos behind on an out lap on...
EngineerAnd then you've got Hulk on high field.
EngineerAnd then you've got HULK on high fuel Oh I need a gap here mate Two and a half, eight and a half I've got HULK Ok There's a big gap behind HULK You've got seven seconds to HULK
Max VERSTAPPENI had
Engineerthe
Max VERSTAPPENleft hand tyres on
EngineerYep, understood Back to mode 6 please Max, mode 6
Max VERSTAPPENI've already hit it, we're one lap
EngineerAnd then Strat 7, Strat 7
EngineerDo you think you need a change in the garage, Alex? Yeah, but we are way out of sync. Yeah, I know, it's a bit of everything at the minute, so we've just got to work our way through it and push in. We certainly don't have time to do a double cool now. Stroll pushing in three. Let's get the anti on where we can, please.
Alexander ALBONOh my god, man.
EngineerWe can do a double cool, but we're going to be tight on time for any change you need in the garage. Hamilton as well then, clear eight seconds.
Alexander ALBONNo, it's okay, let's just box. I honestly don't really need the four-wheel drive now. I'm front-locking, but it's all front-locking because of bumps. And I feel like the car itself is rear-wheel drive now. But all the bumps are making me front-lock everywhere.
Logan SARGEANTMan, what is this guy doing man?
Yuki TSUNODAReally starting a run, man.
EngineerCopy.
EngineerOkay, Yuki for the rear do you do you have understeer issues or zero?
Yuki TSUNODANo, I have understeer Like turn one for example turn two Just generally grip lacking grip
Max VERSTAPPENThe car is jumping around a lot, like up and down. Perspective breaking into one.
EngineerUnderstood.
Max VERSTAPPENAlso turn three, four.
EngineerSo currently P5, main loss turns 1-2, 8-9, and last she came. Main one is turn 1-2, 3-10.
Charles LECLERCI feel like we are not doing something right on 1-2.
George RUSSELLI'm sorry, can I make that ball out?
EngineerYeah.
EngineerDrop for science science the car behind on a push map.
Pierre GASLYYeah, it's yeah,
EngineerI'm sorry
Carlos SAINZYeah, I'll be.
Logan SARGEANTWhat's he doing man? Honestly, that's nearly huge
Charles LECLERCWe are extremely slow.
Engineer40 seconds remaining. I'm not sure with the traffic if it'd be able to start a push or not. But in either case, go into mode push and try and just try the apex curve of three. Four cars ahead on back off.
Max VERSTAPPENI hit a little bit of wall on the right rear.
EngineerOkay, understood.
EngineerBit of traffic paradise there in the last corner. Yeah, I saw that. Cars were bunching up.
EngineerBit of traffic in paradise there in the last corner. Yeah, I saw that. Cars were bunching up.
EngineerLast was a good lap, finally. It doesn't look very fast, that's clear. No, no, it's not, but at least it was your best.
