Singapore Grand Prix2024 · Practice 3 team radio

EngineerSo we are told the track is clear, but just have a look for the lizard.

Fernando ALONSONo, it's in the middle of the track.

EngineerWhere

George RUSSELLdo you want me? On tyres?

EngineerSo

George RUSSELLtargeting plus six

EngineerYou have a 12-second gap ahead. Shouldn't be too bad for bunching.

EngineerWe started the lap with quite low rear tyre temp still so let's see if we get an improvement on the next lap

Esteban OCONYeah, copy. At the moment very bad instability on the turn-ins.

EngineerOK, copy that, understood.

EngineerSo snap turn three looks to be costing a couple of tenths looks like initiated from that front pinch

George RUSSELLMy dash isn't updating, yeah,

Engineermy dash isn't updating. Stop at two.

Oscar PIASTRIBalance already feels better than yesterday.

EngineerFirst pushing will be Ricardo, 11 behind.

Max VERSTAPPENEveryone is just in the way, the whole lap. I can't, it's much better though.

Esteban OCONYeah, the rear was a little bit better, but still it's quite loose I think on entries. Understood, Hamilton.

EngineerSliding of the grip. We think mid plus one for the slide.

Engineerokay so exit of turn three we could gain some time we've got torque 10 available torque 10

Pierre GASLYWow, that was very very close

George RUSSELLI need a change of gloves for the next stint Aye

Engineerclub

Max VERSTAPPENEvery time that Mac's steering lock at the entrance of corners, I lose the rear.

EngineerUnderstood.

George RUSSELLSo, just had a lot of traffic, sector 1. Understood. Still struggling in the last corner with understeer.

EngineerHow much of a step do you want, Max Herr? We can either recommend you torque 7 or mid 7 or both. I think we should try a quarter then, see what it does. Yep, OK. Then torque 7 and mid 7, please. And you have Piastri at 5.

Yuki TSUNODAWe were looking at everything. Turn 14, I felt a bit of, I don't know, we were looking all instability. Second fish was a bit more instability on the nose.

George RUSSELLStill pretty understeery in turn three. I got him.

EngineerAnd then the other one, if possible somewhere, can you do a first to second upshift with recharge off? Hamilton time lap just left turn nine and Verstappen six seconds behind him.

EngineerI

Franco COLAPINTOstarted to lose arrears towards the end of the lap, 16 I was starting with the rear. With the lap I think I would still go up for the new set again.

ZHOU GuanyuI think what we can do is to change, because it's feeling too much sliding, both back and front. Yeah, we can talk in the garage.

Pierre GASLYWhat's the other car's time?

EngineerSo Esteban's lap was a 33.3 That

Pierre GASLYwas the last lap

Engineerso you've done an extra lap compared to him so on the fourth lap Same tire age you guys were doing identical lap times

EngineerWe will need a full lap on NG1 at the rest of the course.

EngineerFive to Perez. Strat one and double call here. Targeting minus 50.

Engineerokay go switch the clerk in three okay go switch to go in you got the clerk opening six clerk in three that's empty on

Engineer2-2 Verstappen ahead, okay maybe a gap to the red ball ahead, number gap, minimum 7 SC2. Matthias will be slow, Hamilton slow as well in sync, so it's 5.

EngineerThree and a half in terms of sectors two and a half sector one three and a half in the middle

Engineerthe 30 point so piastri on the soft

EngineerI'm no threat behind you, Castrian sync with you behind. I'm no threat behind you.

EngineerIt's just the rear is getting out of control. It's that turn 5 step.

EngineerAnd 10th, 17th, mid-speed.

Lewis HAMILTONThat's still too late.

EngineerThere is Hamilton and science in turn 13. I've got a feeling science is gonna pit So I don't think you'll be there and I think the clerks gonna pit so it should be relatively clear ahead of you

George RUSSELLTurns one two three the GPS my dash isn't working so you

Engineerjust stay on it for that sector. Yeah

George RUSSELLVery surprised more people are on the soft already.

EngineerYeah, Max is out there now. He's just done a 30.5

EngineerYeah, I cook the rear 63 at D4 as well. Yeah, I think there's a bit of being a bit more patient in that sector one. Not get the snap, that's also hurting the rest of the lap. But we'll talk when you're back.

EngineerAdelando, thoughts on front wing?

Lando NORRISVery much so.

EngineerAnd I know if you want to... We can try the front wing. OK.

Lance STROLLI did the press of K0, tell me if it's enough.

EngineerYeah, so as you are now, it's fine.

Engineersee

Lewis HAMILTONthere's still 10 minutes left

Engineeruh copy yeah we'll get one more push and then we'll need to go for the start

EngineerEverything alright?

George RUSSELLYeah, yeah. Well, no, I went straight on, but otherwise I'm okay.

EngineerTargeting zero. Hulkenberg four behind. Let's start working the fronts.

EngineerIt was 1 tenths straight line braking turn 10, 1 tenths minimum speed turn 11.

EngineerDecent improvements there Lewis, improved on sector 2 and sector 3.

Charles LECLERCYeah, let's focus on driving instead of focusing about scrub and whatsoever. And to be honest, about feeling also, because the feeling is ******, we are very slow.

EngineerDo

Lando NORRISI have time to go to the toilet or not?

EngineerNot really, if you're super fast, ideally not.

Charles LECLERCI just have no grip.

EngineerOkay, so we can keep pushing if you want if you want to keep pushing we can do one more

EngineerGot Perez behind.

Franco COLAPINTOYou sick over here? Yeah, don't worry. Don't worry.

EngineerJust take the flag

George RUSSELLThat last corner is still a limitation.

Engineermultifunction ERS position one multifunction ERS position one

EngineerAnd Lando, before you jump out, I know you want to jump out, if it was trying to achieve targets, this one or a more conservative one?
