Pierre GASLYSmoke's coming out of the front brakes.
Carlos SAINZHold on a moment.
EngineerI just have no front, which is very annoying, I've absolutely no front. OK, we'll have a think what we can do for the next one. Front brakes, smoking, turn 1, no deceleration. Alright, copy that.
EngineerSo Oscar, turn one, there was a bit more tailwind than P3. You braked 10 metres later and with less peak pressure.
Alexander ALBONA lot of smoke on the front brakes into Turn 1.
George RUSSELLTires are nowhere, sliding massively.
Esteban OCONIs
Engineerthat
Esteban OCONthe back of the queue?
EngineerAt the moment yes, but these cars should clear quite quickly so should be okay
Max VERSTAPPENI think we almost crashed. Yeah,
EngineerI saw that Max.
ZHOU GuanyuSo many cars going off ahead of me. Unbelievable.
Franco COLAPINTOYeah, sorry for that
Kevin MAGNUSSENOh my god, man!
Esteban OCONFor f*** sake guys, we had to drive offline all the way around
Engineerso we can't do this. Yeah, unfortunately it's due to our position on track, there's nothing we can do about it when we're in that situation, okay? Okay, let's try and not do that, if we can. We're gonna try our best, all right?
Valtteri BOTTASGot this big cut off
EngineerCut off was two tenths faster than our first push. I think we would have had it. Yeah, I think
EngineerMan,
Kevin MAGNUSSENthe guy went off in front of me.
EngineerUnderstand.
EngineerAt the moment we are P16
Yuki TSUNODAYeah, man, I'm just saying it's so just ridiculous. It's so difficult drive. It's so ridiculous
EngineerLet's keep it clean on the radio and bring the car back in
Max VERSTAPPENUm, somehow I just had a big one that's here in 6, 7 and 8.
EngineerOkay, understood.
Sergio PEREZI'm I'm installing a bit for entry copy that which corners medium and the final
Alexander ALBONThere's a totally different balance, so it was
Engineera
Alexander ALBONbit difficult. But that was better, the fonts were way better in that lab.
Lewis HAMILTONThese tires are really hot mate.
EngineerCopy.
Charles LECLERCEka is not turning at all, again.
Fernando ALONSOI think P11 is better than expected.
Daniel RICCIARDOYeah, honestly, that was about all it had.
EngineerYeah, great. Good job.
EngineerUnfortunately we are out, we are in P15, changing circumstances through the the session. Yeah but look, look, look the entry switch, that's where I was for the whole lap. Yeah sure. So yeah we messed up. Okay.
EngineerOkay, you're free.
Alexander ALBONYes!
EngineerWe saw that one as well
EngineerThere's not much to find Lewis, so maybe a little bit mid-speed exit to turn 11, but yeah, not much.
Nico HULKENBERGYou started it doesn't feel bad at all actually.
EngineerYeah copy that
Max VERSTAPPENAlright, we've had all of this set. Shocking!
Sergio PEREZKeep pushing, keep pushing.
EngineerMax is four seconds back
Sergio PEREZI f***ed up, it wasn't over the tyre So picky
EngineerCopy that mate That's P8
Lando NORRISOh, f***ing lap, I'm sorry, my bad. Okay mate, I'm sorry, your f***ing lap was good enough for pole. Cool, that means your setup was amazing. Well done boys, lovely 1-2, congrats.
Nico HULKENBERGThat new tire just turned 1, 2, and 4, 5. It feels kind of worse than when I used it. It just doesn't have the grip somehow.
EngineerYeah, copy that, Nico. Good job on Q3. Good place to start for tomorrow.
EngineerIt's P9, P9. Just picked the hulking mode by 40 milliseconds with P9, nice job.
Alexander ALBONYeah, well done, that was really good. I lost the video a bit and I'll ask a winner, but we did a really good job there, the tyre actually came to us throughout the session, so well done Jack. Good work Alex, really good laps, and there's a good position to start from tomorrow, we've got a good car.
Max VERSTAPPENYeah, I don't
Engineerknow
Max VERSTAPPENwhat happened mate. The card just didn't work at all anymore on key 3. Zero, rip.
EngineerRoger that Max.
Oscar PIASTRIP2 well done mate. Yep yeah thanks everyone last lap just wasn't uh I wasn't good enough I think turn two set the tone but great effort there's definitely no guarantee of that result so well done on the execution let's go have some fun tomorrow
EngineerOK, listen, that's P6, it's 0.18, it's at Norris.
Lewis HAMILTONClose to the people ahead of me.
EngineerSo it's just 46 milliseconds to Sainz and then another 6 milliseconds to Leclerc, another 21 milliseconds to George.
Charles LECLERCCar is so difficult in the slow
Engineerspeed. Please target zero, it's a request, target zero.
Charles LECLERCYes, yes, yes, yes, I know, I
Engineerknow. I'm just telling you what they tell me.
Charles LECLERCYes, but please, um, it's okay, I'm checking the dash, don't worry.

EngineerOK, Strat 1, box, box.
George RUSSELLWhat's
Engineerthat? P3, P3 at the end. How close? Behind Norris, but 4 milliseconds to Yacht Street.
George RUSSELLAll right, good plays guys, well done. Nice job. Well done, well done. Sorry, Q1 and Q2 was a bit rubbish. Good work, Tiger Group, everyone involved there.
