EngineerLet's

Carlos SAINZgo, I've got them going. Let's go.

EngineerVerstappen potentially damaging his rears a bit more than we are.

EngineerMcLaren Car 2

EngineerAwesome move, let's go!

Yuki TSUNODAOh, yeah, definitely he forced me off. If I didn't go off, definitely I had a contact, for sure. 100%.

Engineer16 and wind change confirmed will be charged button off at 12 to try the mode in 16.

EngineerStart goes out the same, but keep it nice and clean.

Yuki TSUNODAYeah, it's a little bit hard to Yeah, judge what balance we are right now, but so far there's no issue

George RUSSELLOkay, so you can just look into turn one a lot of jacking

EngineerGreat job Max. Nice last lap, well controlled. Focused on tomorrow.

Max VERSTAPPENYeah, good effort guys. That was much better. Good race.

EngineerWell done Max. Very controlled race. Well done mate.

Valtteri BOTTASThere's fire in the brakes. The brakes are not working.

EngineerOkay Valtteri, let's stop the car. Stop the car.

Franco COLAPINTOThere's a few cars around us, we can race ahead of you,

Engineerthe Haas as well, a few cars behind are going to try to push through, Perez, and probably from further back, Piastri, I want you to know their progress and where they are.

EngineerThe halo fan isn't holding in the right position anymore now we've took the shroud off

EngineerOkay, everyone is on used medium except for Sonoda, Piastri, Ocon, Joe.

Pierre GASLYYep, let's do it

Engineer90 seconds fire up

EngineerNo full load from now please, launch feedback that was on target

Lewis HAMILTONSomething's clicking when I brake, front right wheel.

EngineerOK, stand by.

George RUSSELLI assume. Right, hop.

EngineerAnd if you can do some weaving where you can happy for some weaving

EngineerAnd for info you were at 1% aggressive, 1% aggressive

Engineerokay we are happy with SOC there'll be no issues

EngineerSuper job, Kev.

Pierre GASLYI have a massive problem with the realloc, can you check?

EngineerCopy

EngineerBrake balance plus one.

EngineerEarly energy is available exit 11 if you need.

EngineerSP 14, Gasly ahead, Lawson behind.

EngineerA very good introduction on tyres, we are happy with that.

EngineerSuggest resetting balance adjuster curve.

Charles LECLERCWe've got to try and come back on the others if possible. Copy.

Franco COLAPINTOBoris is in another tracking meeting, he left now, he went there before

Lewis HAMILTONAm I losing distance?

EngineerLet's go sock six, sock six, and pedal position four.

EngineerOn Liam, if you have margin with the traffic, we can push one step more in sector 1 high speed. Tyres are stabilized, we have margin in high speed.

EngineerWe're under investigation. We need to let Tsunoda through. We gained advantage at turn 11 apparently.

Kevin MAGNUSSENNo way, man. He pushed me out. Tell them to have a good look at it again. Tell

Engineerthem to look again, man. We have to let him through. ****,

Kevin MAGNUSSENman. How are we? Yeah, understood.

EngineerVery good, less tyre management required from now, 6, 8 and 17.

Sergio PEREZThe arm is only with one front lock and the radius moves at the end, at the end of braking.

EngineerOkay, let's try b-ball four, b-ball four and minus two on the bias offset.

George RUSSELLTurn left here, it's pretty rubbish.

Fernando ALONSOMan, the Alfa Tauri

Engineeris

Fernando ALONSOsuch an idiot.

EngineerI

Lewis HAMILTONgot a little granny

EngineerCopy, yeah still could do some work bringing surfaces down

EngineerOur biggest area is to save traction turn 12 and 15.

EngineerOkay, this is very good. Ten laps to go.

EngineerAnd purple for sector, awesome out there, good taste, and Lando is struggling with his front left, front left, weak for Lando.

George RUSSELLWell, that's just toast.

EngineerStart managing front left under rotations a bit more.

EngineerAnd Joe is breaking earlier in turn 13 and gaining in mid-corner with more break-release.

EngineerFeedback on balance if we can, if we can try and help you with some switches.

Alexander ALBONFine, fine, fine, fine.

EngineerYeah, Lando, when ready, if there was a safety car, we'd give up four positions. Yeah,

Lando NORRISI did notice not many laps left, so a soft would be nice.

EngineerMinus two on break balance.

EngineerFour left to go, they are losing 2 free 10s, 8 and 9 to Lando, going for...

Engineerjust make sure you look after the car when racing

EngineerGap to stroll ahead 0.6, Esteban 0.7, so it's turn 9, we need to be careful, we've had two limits there.

EngineerOkay, Nico, it'll be two to go at the line. We'll bring it home in this order. Good job

EngineerWe can go Strat Mode 5

Lewis HAMILTONMan, talk to me in the braking zone, man, jeez!

EngineerSorry mate, we need to increase lift and coast for engine temps. Please increase lift and coast.

EngineerUse all the energy.

George RUSSELLSorry about those overtakes with the Ferraris but they were in another league, no grip from the tyre

Charles LECLERCFooling and the breaking.

EngineerWell done mate, that was good driving, good pace at the end last few laps you were matching the leaders fastest lap of the whole race was Verstappen 37.4 so you were within one tenth of that

Oscar PIASTRIRace is pretty hard in the back here so Let's go again this afternoon

EngineerYeah, that was awesome mate. It was, that was a good one. Yeah, some excitement there, good job.

EngineerOkay, tough race out there mate. That's P14 for us.

Pierre GASLYI need to have a look at these brakes because I struggled a lot this race.

EngineerYeah, we'll take a good look mate

EngineerCheck it, Fat Kev. Awesome job. P7, Nico P8. Three points for the team. Couldn't ask for more. Absolutely brilliant. Well done, mate.

Kevin MAGNUSSENYeah, good work boys and girls, very well done.

EngineerCharge on please Kev, charge on.

EngineerYeah, that was awesome mate

EngineerIt was, that was a good one. Yeah, some excitement there, good job.

EngineerWe will complain for Norris.

EngineerOkay mate, good job. So that's the flag there. Let's get a nice steady in-lap round. So big lift, nice steady in-lap.

EngineerOkay mate, sorry about that, difficult with the temp management there.

EngineerOkay, it was a good first lap. We enjoyed that. It's difficult to keep them behind, but we tried. We'll review everything after.

Yuki TSUNODAThe place is unbelievable.

EngineerYeah. They are very fast on the straight.

EngineerThank you. It's a good baseline for going into tomorrow. Lots to learn from, but it's encouraging for this afternoon.
