The session, message by message
EngineerEveryone is going on slips, Oscar.
EngineerGo remember to respect the Delta time
EngineerMode K2 please, mode K2, and BC1 please, BC1.
Valtteri BOTTASYeah, track is okay, plus the...
EngineerCopy.
EngineerFrom Hülkenberg's onboard. He's the lead car track seems in relatively decent condition
EngineerSo let's just take caution on the curbs, let's prep the tires, we'll reset our shape.
EngineerWe think there could be one lap before the rain, so suggest strat 2. Strat 2 could be some rain after you've done one lap. Watch for Joe.
George RUSSELLStill a bit of
Engineera
George RUSSELLspit in here mate.
EngineerWe think there could be one lap before the rain, so suggest strat 2. Strat 2 could be some rain after you've done one lap.
EngineerIf you want to keep pushing, strap 12 does work.
EngineerWe expect this intensity for Q1, for the next minutes.
EngineerAre you okay?
Logan SARGEANTYeah, I'm not sure the car is.
Lando NORRISMagnuson, so
Engineercars are pitted behind, I'll work out what they're doing, Oscar's the car behind, should be in phase, we think this rain will continue to the end of Q1.
Sergio PEREZGot a little bit weak in the last sector
Oscar PIASTRII definitely don't think it's getting better, but I can't tell if it's getting worse either.
EngineerCopy.
Yuki TSUNODALet's be on the nose your last sector especially copy so if I Just talk about glasses last place to set some stability
Max VERSTAPPENI don't think we can improve like this
EngineerWhat's your concern the temperatures or the rain? Okay, calm down max then if you're concerned about the rain we can box you can come back to the garage It's not a problem. You were talking to me about tyre temps
EngineerThere'll be a time here for three laps fast slow fast
EngineerJust feedback on the track condition for us, please.
George RUSSELLSorry Dumbo.
EngineerIf we go, I would go single scrubbed. I put the scrub on. Do you agree?
Charles LECLERCOkay. I agree. Let's do that.
EngineerRussell was not faster Joe is faster middle sector
EngineerGiven the track condition, we can rethink the plan for Q2.
George RUSSELLYeah, sorry about the session guys. It's
Engineerall
George RUSSELLgreat
EngineerNo more rain expected. Box, box. Stay negative.
EngineerObviously we want to do a single push at the end, it's not raining anymore from the radar.
EngineerAnd we are in Q2, so we need to be focused. Fast charge, fast charge, fast charge, please.
George RUSSELLI mean, why are we not burning enough fuel in the car? The complete recession, guys. Traction's getting better and better.
EngineerOvertake is available if you need on the outlet.
EngineerSo we can lean on tyres a bit more in sector 2, so through 8, 9, 10, let's lean on them a bit more.
EngineerMultifunction DO position 8, when you can, multifunction DO position 8.
EngineerAnd wind is high intensity. Stroll 2.
Logan SARGEANTI need some flap
EngineerCopy, how much?
Logan SARGEANT1.5 up
Fernando ALONSOHappy with the lap. I think it will be enough
EngineerYeah, copy your p3 at the moment, but there was a lot of people on used
Alexander ALBONI just, ties are totally gone so I have no idea what to expect in the next run.
EngineerAnd let me know if a flap in 12 o'clock plus
Charles LECLERCthree
EngineerWe are thinking new if we are going.
EngineerLet's think about it carefully. Yeah, we are staying.
EngineerWe're
Nico HULKENBERGgetting done here. Does this take it too long?
EngineerYeah, copy, still 315.
Nico HULKENBERGWe're getting done here, didn't take it too long
Nico HULKENBERGDo I have some margin or nothing?
EngineerI think very little. Sergeant, three behind, 2.5.
Nico HULKENBERGit's not more possible with the used it's quite a big big delta used tire yeah
Engineerabsolutely nico you got the most out of it p11 well good job anyway with that crazy out lap too good job
Valtteri BOTTASThat's all I got.
Alexander ALBONI don't know why we didn't wait. I don't
Engineerknow
Alexander ALBONwhy we didn't go out later with the track either.
EngineerIf
Alexander ALBONwe blew it for that, it would have been true.
Logan SARGEANTTraffic's
Engineera
Logan SARGEANTjoke! Honestly! No one moves!
EngineerSo make that lack of a toe count, Max.
EngineerRed button once you're out of the pit lane.
EngineerSo make that lack of a toe count, Max.
EngineerAnd everything about mode turbo all clear in front and behind everything about mode turbo
EngineerThe second run could be affected by rain, so this could be the one.
EngineerNo reports of rain yet. Verstappen turn 9.
Max VERSTAPPENI'd like two clicks, somehow this runtime isn't working that well.
EngineerUnderstood.
Charles LECLERCNo, but the others are all with you
Charles LECLERCNo, but the others are all with you
EngineerYeah, only Richard and Tsunoda chose a scrub.
Yuki TSUNODAThink it's good. It's okay.
EngineerI
Yuki TSUNODAwould say half a step a bit more rotation, but not too far
Charles LECLERCFor some reason the front left completely gave up
EngineerSo I would assume you can do a normal good outlap. I wouldn't rush the outlap.
EngineerF**k
Yuki TSUNODAit, something happened. Sorry.
EngineerThey are going to restart the session.
Engineerand be aware that others may try and race you on the out lap and we do want to start this lap.
Lando NORRISAnd rain. So
Engineerrain expected at 1720 which is in 5 minutes time.
EngineerSo, Oscar, all cars down there are on used tyres.
EngineerThe priority here, Oscar, is on not getting any sporting infringements or penalties. So that means not excessively impeding cars in the pit exits.
Daniel RICCIARDOUnderstood, I'll be McLaren safe so they're going to try and back everyone up.
EngineerOther cars have been told to try and overtake us
EngineerOk, we need to push hard, push hard, overtake Piastri.
EngineerSo we need a full push out lap and you'll have six seconds margin, so zero margin.
Daniel RICCIARDOQuite difficult that last lap, but yup.
Audio only, no transcript
Daniel RICCIARDOOkay, we'll finish it tomorrow.
EngineerGood job, mate. Front right. Very nice. Let's go from there.
Audio only, no transcript
Daniel RICCIARDOWe'll finish it tomorrow.
EngineerAlando, for the moment I think you can stop in the P1 position in front of the FIA garage. I hope.
Lando NORRISRight on.
EngineerYeah, Paul, what up?
EngineerSo Ricciardo, I believe is the car behind you, can't tell if it's Ricciardo or Sonoda but they're 9th and 10th.
Oscar PIASTRII think Sonoda's missing a couple of wheels so I don't think he'll be doing many laps. Ah
Engineeryes, that's fair.
