Lando NORRISAll okay, bit of a brake split I think Just brake performance also doesn't feel great with where I am
Kevin MAGNUSSENIt's already quite a mystery
Engineerand drink system test and we can do also MoTS test
Yuki TSUNODAMaybe I feel like it understood high speed and Yeah, it's a bit slow speed, but slow speed is not a big deal.
EngineerI
Yuki TSUNODAthink we get closer to it and Yeah, high speed we can maybe add a rotation a little bit
Sergio PEREZI think just to tell the representative at the moment, but he's getting there.
Lando NORRISJust for a note, there's a lot of dirt and dust inside the first layer of my screen on my dash. It's okay, but just for next time it would be better if it
Engineerwas cleaner.
Lando NORRISAlso just some nervousness entry to turn 4, just with the issues we've had the last couple of days. Yeah, but then a bit more of an understeer through 5, kind of into 6.
George RUSSELLGot a bit of a vibration while braking.
EngineerNumber 59 laps. It's going to be a tough race, but we know we can race all the cars around us.
Esteban OCONYeah, I just said the bottom of the seeds very hot
Nico HULKENBERGThere is some s***
Engineerin this mirror lens. It's not clean. It's patchy.
EngineerLooks like the wind picked up slightly, just to verify.
Lewis HAMILTONLet me just clean my mirrors, please. Mirrors are dirty.
EngineerNico, can you go multifunction A, grip 10, grip 10, please?
EngineerMLTB green FC position 9
Max VERSTAPPENUm, certainly a little bit on the strip, got a more open-device piece.
EngineerMinor, purple C71, purple C71.
Pierre GASLYGood recovery
Esteban OCONBut I just have no base in this right line the whole time I'm getting destroyed everywhere
EngineerWe have another step available.
Max VERSTAPPENUh, yeah, let's leave it for now. Let's see you later.
EngineerWatch out to your front in 16.
Lando NORRISYep, pace 2 Tire is okay
Carlos SAINZWhat the f*** was that?
EngineerI saw it.
Carlos SAINZIt's a big penalty. Italy took us home.
EngineerUnderstood. We're reporting.
EngineerWe see the rear tires starting to get quite hot. A bit more management on the rear.
EngineerYeah,
Carlos SAINZI feel like I have space here.
EngineerCopy that, understood.
EngineerYou're strong in the low speed 11 to 16 and 17
Lewis HAMILTONWe just had a big crash there.
EngineerYeah, copy. We saw that.
Max VERSTAPPENIt's quite tricky also with the wind in 7-8, quite inconsistent.
EngineerIt's
Yuki TSUNODAquite low grip.
Engineerand switch position yellow switch position yellow
EngineerSuggest red A4, red A4.
Yuki TSUNODABut at the same time, I feel like I'm managing well.
EngineerCurrently thinking plan B plus five. Let me know what you think of that.
EngineerAnd at the moment we are going plan B for Bravo. B for Bravo.
Nico HULKENBERGSome awareness when we're racing would be good.
EngineerI look like 0.9 turn 11 12 was stronger gust of tailwind same snap on the other car
EngineerOkay mate, so we're happy to be status zero from this point.
Esteban OCONThat was already.
EngineerYeah, I understood, just making sure we're all aligned.
EngineerFor the tip-in locking, it's display 5, position 6.
EngineerSo let's get head down and crack on with it now
EngineerOkay, so if you start to reduce the level of management a little bit from here
Carlos SAINZAre we gonna try something in front, or...? We
Engineerare looking into it.
Fernando ALONSOWell, but the sensor default to something
Engineerand box opposite McLaren box opposite McLaren
ZHOU GuanyuAll right, bye-bye. This is the Protector Place. I'll supply the rest of the side.
EngineerThat was a lot better, Fernando. So if you could just hold your foot on the brake pedal. Only there, isn't it?
Alexander ALBONWhat's happening to the race? Just tell me. It's either ******
Engineeror ******
George RUSSELLThere was more jacking in third gear than second.
Lance STROLLThat was
Engineerthe
Lance STROLLbest shot I could get right now.
George RUSSELLI don't know
Engineera
George RUSSELLlot both actuals
EngineerGood job there. We are closing on the lawn, so the moment just turned 8 is where we are missing.
EngineerWe are watching it. We are all within our limits at the moment. I know it's not pretty but stopping now is not worth doing
EngineerScience is also starting to struggle. He's now nearly two seconds behind Leclerc.
EngineerSo Sainz is the car ahead. We should go after him rather than protect against Perez.
Lando NORRISYeah, agreed. I'll go get him.
Logan SARGEANTI can barely hear you, mate. Can you speak up?
EngineerThough Perez hasn't managed to get past Ocon yet. Yeah,
Lando NORRISwe're good. We're good. I'm killing.
George RUSSELLIt's time for a show.
Lewis HAMILTONIf you can't relocate, it's at 117.
EngineerWe've got a track surface slippery warning back straight that could be debris.
Max VERSTAPPENI hit that cone. It's just the impact of my feet.
EngineerUnderstood.
EngineerBernard, can I just check aerobalance? Aerobalance, it's difficult.
EngineerStill showing track slippery turn 15 to halfway down the straight to 17
EngineerThe gap is 2.8 to him. Verstappen knocked the ball out off at turn 15.
Oscar PIASTRII think they need to remove it, it'll cause a lot of damage.
EngineerThe
George RUSSELLcar feels sky-high at the moment, but zero bottoming.
Engineerpeople stopping I think we might have got screwed by this
EngineerCar behind is Ocon on new hard and then Gasly and then Alonso new medium
Engineerseven struts seven
EngineerSt Louis race picture actually doesn't look like it's changed too much just Alonso is now come into the picture
EngineerSo this cost a bit compared to Piastri, we need to push a bit more for these slabs Yeah,
Charles LECLERCcopy that
EngineerWe need to keep him that far behind and then we'll keep extending.
Lance STROLLThere was nothing a problem
Lewis HAMILTONI still feel good.
Lando NORRISSpeak up.
EngineerOpportunity, some pace, turn 14, turn 15. Sainz did a 32.6 last time round. This is really strong pace.
Sergio PEREZI'm not braking.
EngineerI
Sergio PEREZcannot brake into 15, 16.
Lewis HAMILTONIt's impossible to see the co-op now, the chicane.
Carlos SAINZDon't leave it too close, but not too close. Copy.
Lance STROLLI'm just going to go through the elevator, please. Certainly, I pray for you. Sorry.
Lando NORRISYeah, all good pace is strong It's just Pace is good. So let's keep this up it Let's get the power
Max VERSTAPPENI just really don't grip I looked up there again on
Engineerthe set
Lewis HAMILTONWhat position are we in? Have you lost my name?
EngineerIt's only one position, so P8.
Pierre GASLYYep,
Engineerwe're letting everything settle. So let's get the cooker knob back to tire
EngineerSainz behind you also on hard, same age as yours. Perez behind him is on medium.
EngineerSo obviously Lando on a fresh hard tyre, Piastro and Sainz didn't put a time lap on their hard and Checo pitted for a scrub medium as well.
Yuki TSUNODAWait, don't, please don't stress or whatever.
EngineerA safety car has left the leader remember mode RS for the restart Mode RS Norris is going slow into 17
George RUSSELLGot absolutely no grip on the freestyle.
EngineerSo it's Perez ahead 1.5, rest ahead of him on the hard tyre.
EngineerClear yeah, we are on it. We are on it
Max VERSTAPPENNo rotation there at 7.8
Carlos SAINZCan you tell him to give me a position? He doesn't get a penalty.
Carlos SAINZYou just tell him to give me a position and he doesn't get a penalty.
EngineerMake absolutely no to 1.7 behind think that's Jackson
EngineerUnderstood, we have a walk-in aid, check-off 1.0 Check-off 1.0, bien Understood
Carlos SAINZCopy
EngineerOscar, a couple of laps ago, turn 11, when Sainz went off track, it looked like you were ahead at the apex of the corner. Ferrari think you should give the position up, but we do not.
EngineerNo further investigation, no further investigation. Toggle 27. Yeah.
EngineerStay focused, 20 laps to go.
Carlos SAINZYeah, leave me alone Ricky, leave me alone.
Max VERSTAPPENI can't get the car to turn. It's a disaster.
Pierre GASLYYou see today that content it's something okay,
Engineermaybe you can drop mid
EngineerPlease press the oil pump button, please press the oil pump button
ZHOU GuanyuYeah,
Engineerwe saw it. Joey report. Keep pressure on him.
ZHOU GuanyuMy tire is not in a good state, but it's
Engineergoing to be fine.
EngineerOscar we see front wing damage. We see front wing damage, so we think we should box and replace the front wing
Sergio PEREZI cannot put the power down in the final corner.
EngineerSo we've replaced the front wing, we removed some debris from the rear wing, let's see if the vibration's cleared up.
Carlos SAINZSomething is wrong with the car. Check that out for me.
EngineerOkay, understood.
Oscar PIASTRIYeah, the vibration's gone now.
George RUSSELLI'm just slaving all over the show.
EngineerI
George RUSSELLdon't have any group.
Lewis HAMILTONGo ahead, Paul. Give it to me.
EngineerIf you've got capacity Lewis then strat 8 and use overtake
EngineerSure, you know be careful turn six entry
Pierre GASLYOpen it, open it, loud slurs as you're on the tire.
EngineerSo he's his tires are 10 laps newer than ours
EngineerSo we need to work with track limits at turn five. We've got two strikes, track limits turn five. You're too tight.
EngineerWe don't want to take any risks with contact on these cars that you're going to have to drive through.
EngineerLando for turn 7 consider left hand paddle as well if it will help.

Lewis HAMILTONFar ahead has a long way to go. Traffic over.
EngineerYeah copy that, strong in the low speed
Audio only, no transcript
ZHOU GuanyuMike, you see that X-Mate? Look at her.
Engineerokay so that's three strikes lands the track limits at turn five that's a block of my flag so no more okay you gotta watch the turn fine good move though
EngineerWatch out your front in 16 and 17, smooth steering application there
Audio only, no transcript
EngineerOscar, reminder, Lando is leading the race. We do not want to cause a safety car here.
EngineerI'll just give you the strat, eh? It'll come back to you.
Audio only, no transcript
Lance STROLLUh-huh, let's zoom in a straight line.
EngineerOkay, so Rick 0.6 behind them, Piastri one second behind. Yeah, mate, let's, let's. Okay. 16, 17, doesn't matter.
EngineerYou're doing a brilliant job. Five laps to go.
EngineerOther guys in front are struggling. We can take advantage.
EngineerAnd Lando, just to confirm, all safety car windows are closed. Oh, okay.
George RUSSELLI have nothing at all in low speed. No
Engineergrip.
EngineerLet's try sliding these tyres more, last two laps, see if that gives us anything extra. What do you think I'll be doing for 55 laps?
EngineerI have a 5 second penalty or what? Not yet, just increase, just go fast and straight till the end. Ok, ok, ok.
Charles LECLERCA shame. We're unlucky with the virtual and after the safety castle. I think we did a good job anyway.
EngineerYeah, I agree. Good job.
EngineerYou've done it mate, you've done it. WhiteH11 in position 12. WhiteH11 in position 12. Oh,
Lando NORRISmy . I

EngineerAnd
Charles LECLERCcongrats to Lando for his first win.
Lando NORRISI guess that's how it's done. Finally. Oh, I'm so happy. I knew it, huh? I knew it when I came into this morning. I said, today is a day full of opportunities. And I nailed it. You nailed it. Thank you so much.
Lando NORRISThanks mom. Thanks dad. This one's for my grandma. Thank you very much.
Oscar PIASTRIWhat up to Lando, first win, very
Engineervery well done
Audio only, no transcript
Charles LECLERCCongrats to Lando for his first win.
EngineerCheck the flag, Yasuyuki, mega, mega race, P7, brilliant.
Yuki TSUNODAHaha, what a pace. What a pace, man. Very good job, teams. What a week, honestly. So much points. So much points.
Yuki TSUNODAHonestly, people who pushed in the background were impressive. The car today was like flying. Incredible. I got help from this performance rather than myself. So apologies for the mistake at the beginning. But anyway, it was a good race.
EngineerOkay, that's the checkered flag Yeah, not much to say we'll talk about it afterwards. Sorry a lot of stuff went on that
Nico HULKENBERGAh, shame boys, but a good effort, fun race, fun overtakes, thank you. Just need to work on the first half of the race with full tanks, we were not competitive at all.
EngineerYou did some nice overtakes. It was fun to watch for us too. Thank you.
Nico HULKENBERGThanks, Giza.
EngineerYeah, I mean the Williams, I don't want to say more.
ZHOU GuanyuIt's difficult to get past them, man.
ZHOU GuanyuWe can talk later, but yeah, I'm
Engineersure you see
EngineerDifficult race Valtteri, we finished P16 with the penalty applied to Stroll, Joe is P14.
EngineerOkay, that was a long stint on that hard, tough one. I think those safety cars might go our way.
Alexander ALBONYeah, I mean, honestly, it was annoying as the place wasn't even so bad, but we were just, we really got to work on whatever goes on Saturday, because it was horrible, but we'll talk about it later.
EngineerYeah, understood.
EngineerMate, frustrating after Noon for you, you drove better than that result, much better than that result. The positive is that the stuff that went wrong isn't on you. The other car won the race, drove away from Verstappen for the whole of the last stint, won by nearly eight seconds and you've got that in Imola.
Oscar PIASTRIYeah, well done on the win everyone. We really deserve that. So congratulations. Well done to Lando, first win. Very, very well done.
EngineerWell done mate. B10, first point.
Esteban OCONYeah, sorry, I need to take my breath, but I know we should not be happy for P10, but Yeah, we fought that one Thank you. Yeah, first one of the year. Let's go get some more
EngineerAbsolutely
Pierre GASLYAbsolutely got it,
Engineerabsolutely got it. We can go scenario 12, sorry, scenario 12 and we need maximum fuel saving.
EngineerYep, got a mate. So that's P12 for us. Esteban got P10. Ahead of him was Alonso.
EngineerI'm
Pierre GASLYhappy for the team, congrats for the first point, just absolutely got it with this Viotra safety car, absolutely got robbed.
EngineerWe were given a very dubious 10 second penalty there for the incident with Albon, so in the end you're actually p17, sorry about that mate.
Lance STROLLPush the bell button and press me off the chat.
EngineerYeah, we're discussing it. We'll see what we can do, but that might not be right. But yeah, completely agree.
Lance STROLLYeah, I mean, the strategy was interesting. Okay.
Carlos SAINZYeah, one more lap and we would have won it.
EngineerYeah, I was super unlucky.
Carlos SAINZAnyway, I think it was a strong race, it was just tough out here, but the pace of the car was good.
Carlos SAINZYeah, I feel like we deserve more another good start, but then someone who was it better at the start. Yeah
