68 radio messages were recorded during practice 1 at the Monaco Grand Prix 2024, across 18 drivers. 65 of them have a transcript; the rest are audio only. Sergio PEREZ had the most, with 11.

These are transcripts of real team radio audio, produced by speech recognition and presented as an archive rather than as edited prose. Radio is clipped and noisy, so wording can be imperfect. Each message is attributed to the driver or their engineer.

  4. Oscar PIASTRIMcLaren13:31:130:13

    EngineerOscar, there is now a slight chance of light rain towards the end of this session. We don't think that's the big storm coming yet necessarily, but it could be light rain towards the end of the session.

  5. ZHOU GuanyuKick Sauber13:31:320:08

    ZHOU GuanyuCopy. Checked a little bit my clothes by the way, it's quite easy to get undistorted from the garage.

  6. George RUSSELLMercedes13:31:530:05

    George RUSSELLYeah, I'm going to go through prep lap tyres, I don't know what.

  7. Oscar PIASTRIMcLaren13:34:470:10

    EngineerSo Oscar the car is softer rear heave stiffness than expected which means it could be lower rear ride height at high speed than expected

  8. Sergio PEREZRed Bull13:35:440:02

    EngineerKeep on pushing

  9. George RUSSELLMercedes13:36:000:04

  15. Pierre GASLYAlpine13:42:490:14

  22. Logan SARGEANTWilliams13:48:400:03

    Logan SARGEANTThe tires pretty damn bad

  23. Daniel RICCIARDORB13:49:060:04

    EngineerAnd you can consider entry 9 if you need more stability.

  24. Sergio PEREZRed Bull13:50:170:03

    EngineerStandout corners.

  25. Sergio PEREZRed Bull13:50:200:04

    Sergio PEREZAll the big stocks really turn one

  26. Sergio PEREZRed Bull13:50:240:03

    Sergio PEREZout of the tunnel

  27. Sergio PEREZRed Bull13:50:270:06

    Sergio PEREZAnd we seem to be having a subtraction.

  28. Daniel RICCIARDORB13:51:020:06

    EngineerOk Daniel, big cool down again, we have a bit less cars on track, we can give you one more lap.

  29. George RUSSELLMercedes13:51:180:07

    George RUSSELLTires are not biting at all.

  30. Carlos SAINZFerrari13:52:440:06

    EngineerBrake shape plus one, engine braking plus one, all clear from behind, all clear.

  31. Esteban OCONAlpine13:54:310:08

    Esteban OCONThe front is bouncing in the air quite a bit, mid-corner.

  32. Esteban OCONAlpine13:56:270:01

    Audio only, no transcript

  33. Logan SARGEANTWilliams13:56:280:02

    Logan SARGEANTIt's high as nowhere, man.

  34. Sergio PEREZRed Bull13:56:520:05

    EngineerWe won the money in sector 2, our main loss is sector 1, sector 3.

  35. Sergio PEREZRed Bull13:57:340:10

    EngineerDo you want a flap adjust now?

    Sergio PEREZYeah, let's go up.

  36. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull13:58:370:05

    Max VERSTAPPENIt's

    Engineerthe

    Max VERSTAPPENcards on the night set.

  37. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes14:02:560:23

    Lewis HAMILTONTire feels pretty decent

    EngineerYeah, copy we'll get We don't use that tire. We can save it, right? Depends what FB2 is like.

    Lewis HAMILTONYou can still save it if you don't use it, too

    EngineerWe have to return two tires, still have to return two tires regardless. Album at four seconds

  38. Carlos SAINZFerrari14:03:360:06

    Carlos SAINZCheck a good off-road out of the way a little earlier there.

  39. Alexander ALBONWilliams14:03:450:14

    Alexander ALBONCan you just check my front left, I clipped the wall in turn 10, left hand side. Front

    Engineerleft turn 10, copy that, take a call, target minus 5, we can try the mode 2 lap next time round.

  40. Logan SARGEANTWilliams14:03:530:10

    Logan SARGEANTFront left.

    EngineerFront

    Logan SARGEANTleft. Steering stray, but I hit it way too hard for nothing to have happened.

  41. Oscar PIASTRIMcLaren14:06:020:05

    Oscar PIASTRII touched the wall in 15 a little bit, but hopefully it was okay.

  42. Alexander ALBONWilliams14:06:540:12

    Alexander ALBONDefinitely vibration on the front left, but it's not a balance, it's just a vibration. It feels like it's maybe getting worse, but it's hard to tell.

  43. Nico HULKENBERGHaas14:10:190:07

    Nico HULKENBERGWe don't want a box to get onto the soft.

    EngineerLeclerc six behind, that let me discuss.

  44. Yuki TSUNODARB14:11:210:04

    Yuki TSUNODADon't talk to me just before 10-3 breaking.

  45. Sergio PEREZRed Bull14:12:490:06

    Sergio PEREZYeah, at high peak still. The front feels very light there.

  46. Sergio PEREZRed Bull14:13:280:05

    Sergio PEREZGenerally, the ideal balance, I'm lacking some front end.

  47. ZHOU GuanyuKick Sauber14:13:590:04

    ZHOU GuanyuI test the wheel turn 1 exit.

  48. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes14:14:230:05

    EngineerSo currently P1 just 3100th to Piastri.

  49. Charles LECLERCFerrari14:15:100:05

    EngineerSo no one behind we're gonna box and check the car

  50. Charles LECLERCFerrari14:15:270:11

    Charles LECLERCAh f**k, I took a carbon part under the floor.

    EngineerOkay, we'll check the car.

  51. Logan SARGEANTWilliams14:19:240:11

    Logan SARGEANTAnd Danny Rick, or Yuki, got in my way to back, which was really bad.

  52. Sergio PEREZRed Bull14:20:350:07

    EngineerJust a couple of spots of rain at the moment, proper rain right at the end of the session.

  53. Daniel RICCIARDORB14:21:460:08

    EngineerOK, Daniel, let's consider a bid lap, tyres are cold.

    Daniel RICCIARDOYeah, OK, be posted. But I think that's the best thing.

  54. George RUSSELLMercedes14:22:050:03

    EngineerI think they're small raindrops.

  55. Yuki TSUNODARB14:23:020:08

    Yuki TSUNODAHouse is a penalty for sure.

    EngineerYeah, saw that.

  56. Charles LECLERCFerrari14:23:060:12

    EngineerSo I think we can only do the starts Charles.

    Charles LECLERCOkay. Okay. How many points is that?

    EngineerI'm not gonna say it now. Okay, it's relevant. So

  57. ZHOU GuanyuKick Sauber14:25:060:03

    ZHOU GuanyuBy the way the DRS doesn't work

  58. ZHOU GuanyuKick Sauber14:25:100:05

    EngineerYes, confirmed. We expected it. It wasn't like the run before.

  59. Esteban OCONAlpine14:26:190:05

    Esteban OCONWhat the f***?

  60. Lance STROLLAston Martin14:27:050:06

    EngineerSo Russell is high fuel we want to stay ahead of him, but we can back all the way up to him

  61. Lando NORRISMcLaren14:27:560:06

    EngineerMiner white h7 position one white h7 position one

  62. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull14:28:380:14

    EngineerThe

    Max VERSTAPPENproblem is the bumps. The car is so loose on the bumps. So any interaction with engine braking or brake bias is just making it all worse.

    EngineerOkay, coming up.

  63. Pierre GASLYAlpine14:29:010:04

    EngineerSo there's some light spitting reported

  64. Esteban OCONAlpine14:32:490:14

    Esteban OCONIn the airpin I seem to go more straight at the end, like the front doesn't rotate, it gives up. Ok, interesting. And exit of the airpin, the rear is too stiff so the car bounces.

  65. Esteban OCONAlpine14:33:040:01

    Audio only, no transcript

  66. ZHOU GuanyuKick Sauber14:33:050:03

    ZHOU GuanyuThere's another guy, he's always in the way.

  67. Charles LECLERCFerrari14:33:280:13

    Charles LECLERCSorry, I didn't see sergeant Sorry, I didn't see because in the tunnel being all black with the dark car. It's difficult.

    EngineerYeah, don't worry

  68. Daniel RICCIARDORB14:35:370:13

    EngineerYeah, I'm not sure what tier 3 was doing there, bit of sleep I think.

    Daniel RICCIARDOYep, yeah I assume he nearly hit him when he pulled in to his pit.
