EngineerAnd five.

EngineerAnd BB plus 1, exit 10-17, push for put-in-tree

EngineerHow's the balance

EngineerAnd you were minus one on the last clutch drop.

EngineerSo I have some PU cooling, just to confirm how much flap.

George RUSSELLMinus one percent.

Charles LECLERCLeft to be dangerous.

Lewis HAMILTONIs there a lot of people down here, are we ok time-wise?

EngineerYeah, copy, we've got 4 minutes remaining, so yeah, should be ok.

George RUSSELLChris, the weight revs sound a bit weird when I'm around 9.2 it sounds much higher in pitch

Lance STROLLGot a vibration when I brake.

EngineerCopy okay, we see it on the temps.

Lance STROLLI'll let you know, should

Engineerimprove as the temps come up.

EngineerLance, are the brakes any better, or still the same?

Lance STROLLNo, still the same.

EngineerCopy, okay, we are looking at it.

EngineerLance, are the brakes any better or still the same?

Lance STROLLNo, still the same.

EngineerCopy, OK, we are looking at it.

Lance STROLLYeah, the brakes are pretty bad.

EngineerYeah, copy, we're going to try and work on the grid, we do see what you're saying.

ZHOU GuanyuCan somebody clean a little bit my dash? It's water coming from the fan.

Pierre GASLYYeah, let's do it guys what can happen so let's be on it

George RUSSELLbut you need to increase the pace a bit as the guys at the front are getting away

Alexander ALBONI think we're just dying, Bob! What's

Engineerhe

Alexander ALBONdoing?

Charles LECLERCI took a carbon part, on my left side.

EngineerCar looks fine.

EngineerNico, Colapinto is in 9, Sonota 11, so they have a gap to us, so we'll try and extend a bit, extend.

EngineerHi Lando, how's the pace?

Lando NORRISYeah, I'm at pace six or something.

EngineerOkay, in which case, we'd like to use a bit of that pace to try and get a five-second gap to max, if possible, by the mid-teens.

EngineerBut you can see it, Culpinter's struggling. Let's have him.

EngineerOscar, looks like plan B at the moment. Plan B.

Oscar PIASTRICopy.

EngineerAnd Magnussen reporting hard, seems worse than medium competitors.

EngineerParrots and Colopinto are fighting. There could be something coming to us. Let's be on it.

Yuki TSUNODAWe have too much information.

Kevin MAGNUSSENI'm sliding around like hell.

EngineerUndercut power looks strong, maybe two seconds.

Sergio PEREZIt's very difficult to find Scolapito.

EngineerCopy.

EngineerAnd good job on the brakes

Charles LECLERCYeah, but they react completely differently

EngineerI

Lewis HAMILTONthink I clipped the wall on

Engineerthe

Lewis HAMILTONway into the plane and took

Engineera

Lewis HAMILTONleft.

Engineerat lando for our race we just want to go as long as possible so if we need to look after tires we will we just don't want to be the first person to pit between you and max

EngineerWe are one of the earlier stoppers, but not the earliest. Yeah,

Lewis HAMILTONso we're way too

Engineershort.

Charles LECLERCOh this is so frustrating, how

Engineermany laps are we going to do like this? Keep calm

EngineerYeah,

Lewis HAMILTONyou're killing me with this offset, mate.

EngineerYeah, lots of options like this, they're worse.

EngineerSo it's

Lewis HAMILTONdefinitely wrong with the car. Tyres are dropping off.

EngineerYep, that's upset. Driven.

Max VERSTAPPENYour tyres are quite bad now.

EngineerYep, understood. That shouldn't be too long.

EngineerOkay, mate, this is the race. Let's go

Lando NORRISAh, front wing damage maybe. Maybe front wing damage.

Max VERSTAPPENI just don't get it why we let him undercut it by so far. It's just so stupid.

EngineerWe see a small issue with the front wing, nothing serious.

George RUSSELLI need a bit of

Engineera

George RUSSELLbig room to my mate.

EngineerYeah, hey Fim, so traction metrics, everything's looking really good at the moment.

EngineerAnd these laps are crucial. Keep driving like this.

EngineerThe target lap will be the Plan C target lap. It will be the lap for Plan C.

Oscar PIASTRICopy. Front right starting to struggle a bit.

EngineerOscar, we're tempted to stay out. That would mean you had to overtake Hamilton after the stop. How would that be?

Oscar PIASTRII'm sure it's

Engineera

Oscar PIASTRIgreat idea.

EngineerWe're pulling Piastri back into our window very slowly. Currently one second unsafe.

EngineerThey will be very tight with Hülkenberg, come on.

Oscar PIASTRIGetting rid of chicken out

Yuki TSUNODAWhat are we waiting for?

EngineerWe are discussing Yuki.

Yuki TSUNODAMate!

EngineerYuki, we need to stay calm, we need to stay calm. It's clear. Okay, Yuki, I'll tell you what we're doing. We close up and then we swap. We close up and then we swap.

Yuki TSUNODAYeah, I'm gonna tire, dumbass!

EngineerIf you keep this pace, we should catch Hamilton at the end.

EngineerSo the clerk's still doing high 36s out there. There's a chance of interacting at the very end of the race if he can keep that pace up.

EngineerThe tires are looking very good, Nico, very good.

George RUSSELLJust making sure around here mate.

Sergio PEREZYeah, I don't have traction points. I just start bouncing like a kangaroo.

EngineerCopy that. Keep your head down. Do what you can.

EngineerOkay, so full concentration. I'll take a drink.

EngineerHow are these tyres for a restart? Question?

Charles LECLERCI would probably stop.

George RUSSELLI have understeer, and I have oversteer.

George RUSSELLJust kiss the wall, then you're all fine. We're right.

EngineerHey, Phil. Pressure's looking good at the moment.

EngineerRussell P1, 36.6 What do you mean Russell P1? I meant Norris, but I didn't want to speak in the corner I

Charles LECLERCdon't care about Norris, give me Russell

EngineerJust chill out, bring this car home.

Engineerjust a reminder how tricky the following effect is oscar struggled going through three cars be careful

EngineerYeah, we do have Norris behind. We're getting flashing blues at present. Let's be sensible where we let him through. Go on, keep pushing.

Charles LECLERCThey have a very good traction again

EngineerWell done mate, good job.

Lando NORRISYeah lovely job Lee, amazing car, weekend, thank you very much everyone, one of many more, let's keep pushing.

EngineerYeah, well done Max. You got every ounce of performance out of that today. So Yeah, eight points down to Lando So you've driven a very strong weekend. And your old pal Daniel picked up a faster slap at the end as well Thank

Max VERSTAPPENyou, Daniel

EngineerYes, he's got a P3. Well done mate, really good. Thank

Oscar PIASTRIyou, well done on the strategy. Worked out nice, and enjoy a little break.

EngineerAlright, look tricky over there.

Sergio PEREZYeah, it's not tricky mate. Oof, no bait at all.

EngineerOK, well done Lewis mate, that's P6 in that tyre gamble, yeah really shots at the foot there.

Lewis HAMILTONYeah, definitely hard to stay positive after that weekend but I'm still grateful to all of you guys, good pit stops and thanks for showing up.

EngineerThank you Lewis.

Lewis HAMILTONYeah Lewis, sorry we gave the two of you a car that was just not good enough here and obviously we read the race wrong but wouldn't have made a difference if we were just too slow today.

EngineerThat's P9, Nico. Outstanding drive. Perfect drive. Oh boy.

Nico HULKENBERGI guess nobody said it was easy.

EngineerIt

Nico HULKENBERGwas hard to bring that tire home.

EngineerYeah, amazing, Nico. You're pulling away from Perez. Great drive. No safety cars. Unbelievable. Great job, man. P9.

EngineerGreat job there good job with the racing Well managed on those tires as well. I'll get you a nice cold bath ready. George mega defended Sorry, we you haven't had the car to race

George RUSSELLThanks, Toto Yeah, good points considering Damage limitation I Need carried to the bath. I am Toasty

EngineerI

George RUSSELLkind of drive our holidays guys.

EngineerI

George RUSSELLhope it's on the garage as well you

Engineeramazing job with management and with the toes we saw all of that you really played for the team today well done Joe is Alessandro thank you for the job done today you helped Valtteri giving the DRS for more than 22 laps this is a great teamwork very good thank you Joe great team job yeah that was a bad effort considering the pace this weekend yeah I had a lot more pace than I stayed but I'm happy for doing the teamwork

Alexander ALBONBrilliant, brilliant race.

EngineerGood job out there

Carlos SAINZYeah, good job guys, some decent points after a tough weekend We will regroup and go again, sorry for all the mechanics and thank you for getting the car back up Yeah, I think we had to do that, or we had to do a pit stop Yeah, exactly Yeah,

Engineerit should be, would have been difficult But I think that was the right call and a good job with the tires, just in the end there, good lesson also for next races, eventually And good job through the traffic, that was the key of the race, to go through people in the first, second stint It

Carlos SAINZwas a shame because the start was quite good, but then someone did a bad side move in, didn't wanna Yeah, and then

Engineeryeah, we lost a bit of grit out of it

EngineerOk, obviously we tried and nothing happened out there, so it didn't work out, but I'm glad we tried and I think that was a very well managed change on the medium, very very well managed, so we've done all the right things there and you've got the fastest lap.

EngineerTough race, but good charge those last 20 laps. I enjoyed it. I hope you did too.

Yuki TSUNODAYeah, kinda.

EngineerYes, he's got a P3, well done mate, really good

Oscar PIASTRIYep, well done everyone. I think that was the best I could have done today. So thank you. Well done on the strategy Worked out nicely and Yeah, great points for the team. So thank you and Enjoy a little break

EngineerSo that's P14 at the end. No real incidents there, that's a shame.

EngineerGreat drive PX

Esteban OCONYeah, all done to get to to the finish there and

Engineera well driven a well managed race, so thank you for that

EngineerTough day out there, mate. We've had a tough weekend. Sorry about that. We'll use these next few weeks to recover, come back stronger in Texas. Staying out long, did try and help the other car. Unfortunately, Esteban finished P13. So I appreciate your help today, but we'll talk more about it later.

Pierre GASLYSacrificed. It's okay. Take it for the team. You guys decide what to do.

EngineerI

Pierre GASLYguess we needed to do it. Just need to sort this car out because it's not okay. It's not good enough. But thank you, guys. Tough conditions for the weekend. I know you did your best. Now, please look at the car and just find a way to make it faster because last weekend's been very tough.

EngineerYep. Agree, mate. Car's not good enough, so we will keep pushing. Try and give you a better car to work with. But... Thanks for your efforts.
