    Audio only, no transcript

  12. Nico HULKENBERGHaas01:38:330:07

    Nico HULKENBERGThe problem with the left mirror lens, it's a bit loose, it's going upwards, you can't really see much there.

  13. Lewis HAMILTONMercedes01:39:380:05

    EngineerJust work front left through 17, 18 with surface temp.

  14. Nico HULKENBERGHaas01:39:580:06

    EngineerSo back off car ahead is Bottas, 10 ahead and Norris 15, so you're okay.

  15. George RUSSELLMercedes01:40:370:09

    George RUSSELLBrakes aren't feeling spectacular and ride up a low speed, it's just the cars hopping a little bit at the apex.

  16. Carlos SAINZFerrari01:42:300:08

    EngineerAnd please select engine 1 for the last push, Fioretti, on this compound, Magnussen 5 behind.

  17. George RUSSELLMercedes01:44:010:07

    EngineerOver winged as in, rear winged, not from the wing. 5 seconds on a lap, yeah ok, I was trying to understand that comment.

  18. Kevin MAGNUSSENHaas01:45:150:06

    EngineerPlease can we have a CSL6?

  19. Esteban OCONAlpine01:46:500:05

    Engineerso that's 200 kph down to 11 you can go recharge off as well for that

  20. Yuki TSUNODARB01:47:200:15

    Yuki TSUNODAI think the way I personally brake hard, strong braking zone, I think I keep looking at the front, front under rotation, and that's creating a bit of understeer, good corner.

  21. Oscar PIASTRIMcLaren01:47:500:07

    EngineerFor turn 12, consider delaying initial turning too much combined.

  22. Lando NORRISMcLaren01:48:330:05

    EngineerLando opportunity back off braking turn 1 turn 11 focus on exit

  23. Fernando ALONSOAston Martin01:49:180:07

    EngineerStart safe now, you just set the strut two? Yes, strut two, please. You haven't got it yet?

  24. Liam LAWSONRB01:49:490:09

    Liam LAWSONIf I can do another double cool, or at least a slow cool, I would like another one.

    EngineerI'll keep you posted.

  25. Liam LAWSONRB01:52:000:09

    Liam LAWSONOnly turn 1 I struggle with stability, like the low speed there, it's not really the same through the rest of the track, so can we use the toggle for turn 1?

  26. Kevin MAGNUSSENHaas01:55:450:06

    EngineerWe're not sure how much fuel is in Colapinto's car, so we'll try and build a decent gap to him.

  27. Liam LAWSONRB01:59:000:01

    Audio only, no transcript

  28. Fernando ALONSOAston Martin01:59:010:10

    EngineerAnd energy button please, energy button, that's good. No DRS.

    Fernando ALONSOIt doesn't work.

    EngineerI

    Fernando ALONSOdon't know why we don't go to one copy for the night.

  29. Nico HULKENBERGHaas02:00:070:01

    Audio only, no transcript

  30. Liam LAWSONRB02:00:090:32

    EngineerBrake pressure in a few places, Apex turn 1, turn 11 Are you conscious about this question? Yeah, I don't feel like I'm doing it, but for

    Liam LAWSONme it's super unstable on the way in I don't feel like I'm going to lose the car, but whether I brake early or late, I can't seem to do anything about it Yeah, for me it's rolling the speed, so whether I push the entry or don't push the entry, I can't roll the speed with the car

    EngineerCopy that, let's bear in mind we're on hard, I'm going on soft, we may suffer a bit more front limitation, we'll have a look

  31. Pierre GASLYAlpine02:01:140:05

    Pierre GASLYYeah, a lot of fantasy to finish it up.

  32. Esteban OCONAlpine02:01:550:04

  34. Nico HULKENBERGHaas02:03:320:06

    EngineerJust for info in turn seven we're much quicker than other people and then we have a lot of understeer in eight

  35. Nico HULKENBERGHaas02:03:380:03

    Nico HULKENBERGYep, I noticed that too.

  36. Kevin MAGNUSSENHaas02:04:410:08

  71. Sergio PEREZRed Bull13:03:580:10
