Las Vegas Grand Prix2024 · Practice 1 team radio

Liam LAWSONFeels like I'm driving in the wet, honestly.

EngineerNo, don't be harsh.

Max VERSTAPPENWhat do I meet my God?

Oscar PIASTRIThe car won't turn off.

George RUSSELLThe pit entry line is almost impossible to see.

EngineerYeah, understood.

Max VERSTAPPENRight, the f***ing wheel has this connection issue. The radio went on by itself.

EngineerOn the sub-axe.

Esteban OCONHey, I had to break there

Max VERSTAPPENSo this dirt wheel sometimes randomly disconnects.

EngineerCopy that Max.

Oscar PIASTRIVery slippery already. Copy. Radio's good.

EngineerOK, so we need aero P3 6 gear, so aero P3 6 gear from turn 13.

George RUSSELLSteering point towards red lights

EngineerThere is four you can go gx3 when you can

Yuki TSUNODAThe car in front is so slow.

EngineerYeah, a lot of people are taking it slow, which is making things difficult.

EngineerYou can go K2 plus anytime, or stop and still 2 behind.

EngineerMode 5 please, mode 5.

Lance STROLLCan I just keep pushing?

EngineerConsider big one for corner 14

ZHOU GuanyuGetting better track grip today. Oh my god, that

Engineerwas an ice drive. Albon pushing 5 behind you.

EngineerMost people out there sustainable pushing at the moment

Max VERSTAPPENYou want me to try the tires over or

Engineernot?

EngineerYou can try picking up the pace a little bit as you open the lap. You have Alex at three seconds.

Yuki TSUNODAYeah, sorry, I didn't say what to yeah,

Engineerit's difficult it's difficult man, we don't have that timing it's difficult next time next car is science

EngineerAnd you are in sync, Zu behind is in sync, next car pushing, Hülkenberg, 8 seconds.

EngineerAnd we can go sock five for the next one.

George RUSSELLTell me what you want to do. Well, it's going to keep getting better, but I think if we put the soft on, it would just still keep getting better as well.

EngineerOK, from my side, I'm happy, continuing circling.

Sergio PEREZYeah, yeah, no point boxing.

Oscar PIASTRIMy front left doesn't look great in

Engineerterms of draining. Understood. Do you want to try one more lap or is it finished?

Oscar PIASTRINo it's not finished but it just looks a bit worn.

Pierre GASLYYeah, I thought we were pushing again.

EngineerApologies for that. Yeah, it was a disastrous start of the lap. Yeah, we saw that. We'll get that sorted for the next one.

EngineerWe'll do another constant speed now engine 10 fourth gear

EngineerAnd watch the white line on entry, watch the white line on entry

Max VERSTAPPENYeah, I really think these are some tires that really hold up. Like the mirror just really looks really awful. This part of it's...

EngineerCopy that.

Engineer16 at the moment

Yuki TSUNODAGuys, keep consistently having end of re-locking, end of breaking re-locking.

EngineerCopy, Hamilton just behind you.

EngineerOkay, keep recharge off to turn 12 please for battery temperatures recharge off all the way to turn 12 We're boxing at the end of this lap

EngineerOkay happy to go back to tire on the multi and we'll be boxing this lap so remember to look for the lines on pit entry, there's also some boards on both sides as a reference.

EngineerOk, let's be clear on the exit. We just have to watch how long is the hot lap. I'll let you know.

EngineerI think the tires will be ready. Okay, if you want to go, that's fine.

EngineerFeedback is that may be able to carry a bit more apex speed at turn three. That's all

EngineerMan, Lando, happy to box this lap. If you want to, Hulkenberg, tie the clock as well.

Yuki TSUNODAI have to go my boy, sorry

EngineerSomething

Franco COLAPINTOstrange with my gears, they are really hard.

EngineerYeah, that is normal, that is normal, background change.

EngineerP

George RUSSELL.U. feels a bit funny after the wheel spin hits at 12.

Nico HULKENBERGHere's another really coming down, another cool down for keep the items

EngineerI

Charles LECLERConly count the soft.

EngineerMagnussen and Hülkenberg on soft, now other people on softs and they're going to do their laps.

Yuki TSUNODAI don't really feel like the grip was gripping quite a lot, just quite a smooth grip outside.

EngineerAnd

Nico HULKENBERGtoday's upgrading.

EngineerCopy that. Both fronts or just front right?

EngineerAnd

Nico HULKENBERGtoday's upgrading.

EngineerCopy that. Both fronts or just front right?

Nico HULKENBERGLooks like both.

EngineerOscar for awareness, Strat 2 will give full deploy through Turn 11. Previously you've had a clip at the exit of Turn 10, Strat 2 will give full deploy there.

Oscar PIASTRIThe front ride has a little bit of braking but still feels okay and looks not too bad.

Lando NORRISYeah, I think I had some downgraded downshifts even into the last corner as well, I think.

George RUSSELLFront left goes really well through 8,

Engineerbut

George RUSSELLthen it doesn't look too bad elsewhere, and then it's time to drop.

EngineerCopy.

Sergio PEREZStill a bit neutral in the low speed, 6, 7, 8, all that combination.

EngineerWhite H-10, position 10. White H-10, position 10.

Lance STROLLPirates still feel too cold, man.

EngineerI have no feeling on the brakes at all. Yeah, we are seeing some knock off at 7 and 12, but not 5.

Alexander ALBONAnd you set the low pressure relocking.

Lando NORRISI'm happy to box, honestly, mate.

EngineerOK, box then, please.

EngineerOscar, there's not much margin on rear locking, but with the front tyres, consider testing more engine braking down on torque switch.

EngineerYou

Nico HULKENBERGwant lifting coast?

EngineerWe don't need it now, we've got a reed there, so no lifting coast needed.

EngineerThe middle sector looks like it's mainly straight line, so probably a tow. No pressure behind.

EngineerTalk to talk to maybe we have an extra lap keep pushing keep pushing

EngineerJust have some full throttle to keep the engine temp hot, so full throttle on the straights to keep the engine temp hot.

EngineerYeah, only 10 milliseconds I think to find in the final sector

EngineerPurple C-13, position 12. C-13, 12.

EngineerAnd Lando, can we go to purple C14, please? Purple C14 and just play with the dash.

EngineerI

Esteban OCONthink we should do left, but this afternoon, not now.

EngineerWe need to do left, it's just always the agreement. Yeah, but it's different here. It's not, it's the same. We're doing left side, please. We'll do right this afternoon. We're doing left again for P3.

Esteban OCONYeah, but that's not what I'm saying, but it's okay.
