    Audio only, no transcript

  2. ZHOU GuanyuKick Sauber17:30:400:11

    ZHOU GuanyuYeah, potential change helmet for the next run. It's too dark visor

    EngineerCopy that

  3. Esteban OCONAlpine17:31:170:04

    EngineerOK, so four cars out there on the medium at the moment.

  4. Carlos SAINZFerrari17:32:220:03

    EngineerWind is as expected.

  5. Kevin MAGNUSSENHaas17:32:450:05

    EngineerYou're still in mode slow, so mode K2 plus, please.

  6. Yuki TSUNODARB17:34:230:06

    EngineerDo you push again?

    Yuki TSUNODANo, you don't.

    EngineerOkay.

  7. ZHOU GuanyuKick Sauber17:35:140:07

    ZHOU GuanyuCopy. Better to understand the last sector, but we see a lot

    Engineerof

    ZHOU Guanyutraffic, so... Copy

    Engineerthat.

  8. Pierre GASLYAlpine17:37:220:03

    Pierre GASLYMy right mirror has moved

  9. Kevin MAGNUSSENHaas17:37:580:04

    Kevin MAGNUSSENBrakes are terrible.

  10. Charles LECLERCFerrari17:38:440:06

    EngineerAnd you can pre-select SOC 1, currently P2, P1 Tsunoda on medium.

  11. George RUSSELLMercedes17:40:450:09

    George RUSSELLFelt quite stiff on the front. I did hit the brakes quite hard, but it's just too low grip currently

  12. Nico HULKENBERGHaas17:42:310:08

    EngineerYou want to start from the box or just follow it? Yes please, start from the box in mode RS and you've got your adjuster forward which is fine.

  13. George RUSSELLMercedes17:42:550:10

    George RUSSELLLet me know what you want to do with the program, the track is obviously just ramping in quite a lot.

    EngineerIt is, do you want to...

  14. Yuki TSUNODARB17:43:530:13

    Yuki TSUNODAI feel like every single long straight braking, initial performance of braking is pretty poor. And I think braking performance is coming most at the end of the braking.

  15. Pierre GASLYAlpine17:44:430:11

    EngineerOk, Colapinto's coming through, he's 3 seconds back, alright we'll take a look at that so let's watch out for Colapinto, 2 seconds now

  16. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull17:46:420:07

    Max VERSTAPPENYeah, I think time is getting hot throughout the lap

  17. Oscar PIASTRIMcLaren17:47:160:06

    EngineerOscar, consider down on red mid, down on red mid for mid-corner rotation.

  18. Esteban OCONAlpine17:48:390:01

    Audio only, no transcript

  19. Nico HULKENBERGHaas17:48:390:06

    EngineerA

    Nico HULKENBERGbit of pulling on the brakes

    Engineerto

    Nico HULKENBERGthe left it's not great

  20. Carlos SAINZFerrari17:50:080:05

    Engineer16 was a very good corner, 1.6, good job there.

  21. Valtteri BOTTASKick Sauber17:50:280:07

    Audio only, no transcript

  22. Yuki TSUNODARB17:52:120:05

    Yuki TSUNODAOur break is terrible.

    EngineerUnderstood, Yuki. We're having a look.

  23. Pierre GASLYAlpine17:52:470:02

    Audio only, no transcript

  24. Charles LECLERCFerrari17:53:040:07

    EngineerOn the next straight, after Ricciardo passes, it will be engine 12, 6th gear.

  25. Oscar PIASTRIMcLaren17:54:020:07

    EngineerSo that lap was P10, but I suggest to box this lap and get onto the soft tyre.

  26. Esteban OCONAlpine17:55:070:06

    Esteban OCONThere's less bumps on the brakes now. There's still some bumps in the main straight, but less on the brakes

  27. Daniel RICCIARDORB17:58:230:03

    EngineerWhat about opening deep mid, Daniel?

  28. Daniel RICCIARDORB17:58:260:03

    Daniel RICCIARDOYep, happy to go, 5.

  29. Daniel RICCIARDORB17:58:450:03

    EngineerLast corner was better. Good job.

  30. Lando NORRISMcLaren17:59:330:07

    EngineerOrlando, if the oversteering turn 13 was too much, suggest going up on a switch.

  31. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes18:00:090:06

    EngineerIs it a double cool or what? It's just going to be a single cool, just getting a long run in.

  32. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull18:03:050:01

    Audio only, no transcript

  33. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull18:03:080:03

    Audio only, no transcript

  34. Max VERSTAPPENRed Bull18:03:130:10

    Max VERSTAPPENI don't know what's going on, but between my feet, in some corners they are colder than in others.

  35. Charles LECLERCFerrari18:03:400:08

    Charles LECLERCWell, that is a very very copy

  36. George RUSSELLMercedes18:04:050:09

    EngineerIf you do need to do another one for learning.

    George RUSSELLYou guys make the call. I'm happy to start. We can start at 4.

  37. Valtteri BOTTASKick Sauber18:04:080:06

    EngineerBlock by the red book. Yeah, I don't know what he was doing there

  38. Yuki TSUNODARB18:04:470:08

    Yuki TSUNODAespecially like 10-15 that you kind of breaking is is

    Engineerit

    Yuki TSUNODAwas all on the fully limits

  39. Sergio PEREZRed Bull18:06:140:03

    EngineerAlonso looks slow

  40. Nico HULKENBERGHaas18:06:410:09

    EngineerAnd Mike says you can try funk 4 from turn 14. Gasly 12 behind, Colapinto 10 ahead.

  41. Carlos SAINZFerrari18:07:140:07

    EngineerThe porting from tires quite damaged already just for info no pressure in front and behind

  42. Sergio PEREZRed Bull18:07:530:08

    Sergio PEREZI feel like I'm front pitching at the start of braking. Copy.

    EngineerWe'll come to you with a suggestion.

  43. ZHOU GuanyuKick Sauber18:09:290:05

    ZHOU GuanyuI had a snap into the voting.

  44. Yuki TSUNODARB18:10:040:09

    EngineerIn

    Yuki TSUNODAterms of cooldown levels, okay? Do you want me to cooldown the car or the street pit?

    EngineerNo, you can box, Yuki, box, box.

  45. Oscar PIASTRIMcLaren18:11:370:06

    EngineerWhite H8, position 4. White H8, position 4.

  46. Esteban OCONAlpine18:12:150:05

    EngineerYou wouldn't like a flapper, just please. You want to stay out. Perez, three seconds.

  47. Fernando ALONSOAston Martin18:13:100:13

    EngineerJust to check, you push the pit button, is that on purpose?

    Fernando ALONSONo, to avoid a crash with this car I push the buttons, all the ones I have.

  48. Daniel RICCIARDORB18:13:280:12

    EngineerOk Daniel, good effort. So big picture, I think we push a bit too much on entries in a few places, especially second to last sector, and that cost us on exit.

  49. Sergio PEREZRed Bull18:13:380:04

    Sergio PEREZI got blocked by the other one.

  50. Oscar PIASTRIMcLaren18:14:420:06

    EngineerPurple default zero alpha. Purple default zero alpha to reset Delta.

  51. George RUSSELLMercedes18:15:000:09

    George RUSSELLThe front is grabbing a bit during mid-phase of breaking 14

  52. Charles LECLERCFerrari18:16:030:08

    Charles LECLERCI think it will improve for sure.

    EngineerYes, but I mean the high fuel has also some important gasoline coming through

  53. Esteban OCONAlpine18:17:430:09

    EngineerCan we do a single slow and then a push? If you want to do single slow and push, I'm happy with that.

  54. Yuki TSUNODARB18:17:540:06

    Yuki TSUNODAOf course, Stroll, man.

  55. Esteban OCONAlpine18:18:310:13

    EngineerOkay, if understeer turn 18-19 is a problem, we'll just go down on the high-speed switch. The open modifier doesn't work there, so just drop high-speed switch down.

  56. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes18:19:460:06

    EngineerMissed that last transmission Lewis, but if you can focus on traction, turn 7, 8 and 13.

  57. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes18:20:520:07

    Lewis HAMILTONToo much undersea

  58. George RUSSELLMercedes18:21:370:08

    EngineerVery well balanced, going ever so slightly rearwards now.

  59. Lance STROLLAston Martin18:22:140:05

    Lance STROLLGo this lap or do another cool? We think we need to go around again just for temperature.

  60. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes18:23:550:06

    EngineerGeorgia doing less lift and coast, but more traction management. Traction metrics half.

  61. Lance STROLLAston Martin18:24:130:12

    EngineerWe will have to take a lot of traffic this lap, so we can go nice and steady now, we've got our one in six There will be a lot of cars to come through then there's a big gap behind this group, so

  62. Lando NORRISMcLaren18:25:190:05

    Engineerjust strap 12 strap 12

  63. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes18:27:210:14

    Lewis HAMILTONI'm trying to reduce this traction actually. You've got to fix this man, I'll be as soft as I can.

    EngineerYeah, sure thing Lewis, we'll have you come for the session.

  64. Sergio PEREZRed Bull18:28:020:09

    Sergio PEREZYeah, I can't stop the car with the front right copy

  65. Charles LECLERCFerrari18:29:300:16

    Charles LECLERCYeah, but Carlos

    Engineershould let you through if he doesn't let you through just open the gap. We got a good gap, please yeah,

    Charles LECLERCbut then tell him to not slow down to Then then I'm stuck if

    Engineeryou keep slowing down all the time. Yes, he's been told

  66. Lando NORRISMcLaren18:30:420:09

    EngineerStaying up for the grid launch, like at some point we need to learn first So we need to do a first second shift with recharge off somewhere

  67. ZHOU GuanyuKick Sauber18:31:160:09

    EngineerIt's okay with the modem with my bias because it looks very extreme force. Yeah. Yeah, we want to test it now

  68. Charles LECLERCFerrari18:32:300:26

    Charles LECLERCLast timelapse for the high fuel runoff?

    EngineerSo best lap times, it was 38.7

    Charles LECLERCOkay

    Engineer37.4 Albon on hard, so there's a bit of a mix

    Charles LECLERCBut all the other runners are on hard or soft? The lap times you told me before

    EngineerEvery, I've only told you hard runners

    Charles LECLERCAh okay okay, that makes more sense please, how it plays I think

  69. Carlos SAINZFerrari18:32:310:11

    Carlos SAINZWe need to sort out the brakes. Cannot be that we change the brake balance so much.

    EngineerUnderstood.

  70. Lando NORRISMcLaren18:33:230:06

    EngineerReach hard, John, please. Purple C3, position 2. C3, position 2, third gear.

  71. Yuki TSUNODARB18:33:370:11

    EngineerTwo burnouts, two burnouts.

    Yuki TSUNODAMan, everything is too late.

    EngineerYuki, we're trying our best here.

  72. Daniel RICCIARDORB18:35:110:09

    Daniel RICCIARDOIt found the revs really quickly like with only a little bit of pedal and then when I released it kept staying on

  73. Daniel RICCIARDORB18:35:530:10

    Daniel RICCIARDOJust checked that, that was really weird, throttle just went on itself, felt like it got stuck on the first pre-start.

    EngineerOK copy that.
