Every message, in the order it happened
Oscar PIASTRI: I have like a whistling noise coming from somewhere, but I don't know if it's a mirror or my helmet.
Engineer: Understood, we'll check that on the grid.
Engineer: We expect class one rain for eight minutes, round-lapse seven. May or may not require an inter-unclear.
Engineer: So we're expecting this rain to be light initially, but we'll last seven to ten laps
Engineer: Nice job. Let's go get Oscar.
Oliver BEARMAN: I'm a bit scared about what the letters are doing, it's lapping.
Engineer: Lapping.
Engineer: Lando, how are the tyres? How's the pace?
Lando NORRIS: Yeah, starting to struggle a little bit more now with the rears.
Engineer: Lando, can you get closer to the car I had?
Lando NORRIS: I can give you a touch.
Lewis HAMILTON: Definitely have to undercut these guys. It's hard to get closer.
Engineer: Out on 8.
Engineer: Are you okay?
Lando NORRIS: Is the... is he alright? Front check?
Engineer: Yep, all good.
Lando NORRIS: How did Hamilton crash? Did he go on the green and the green was slippery because of the rain?
Engineer: Uh yes it looks like exactly that he went wide of the white line onto the green slippery at the wall.
Lando NORRIS: Yeah but then you should tell me tell me earlier like this is a race ending bit of information so.
Engineer: Yep okay cool.
Carlos SAINZ: He's just so stupid. Oh my god. This guy is always the same guy
George RUSSELL: We're gonna break up
Engineer: We would try and go to the end on this. Our decision will be if to add a stop, but the goal should be to get to the end.
Charles LECLERC: Yeah, Trump said he doesn't, he doesn't want, he doesn't like the space, so he cannot complain.
Engineer: I
George RUSSELL: mean it was time off the track surely
Engineer: Lando, with the field spread, it's unlikely there'll be opportunities. Our best bet is just go get it. Straight out, Rose.
Fernando ALONSO: Lando, how is balance on the hardpipe? I don't know! You put me always in traffic, I don't know!
Fernando ALONSO: We'll just undercut all these people, I don't know, do something.
Engineer: Yeah, don't worry, we are discussing.
Engineer: So George with this damage on the car, I think the best opportunity for the team is invert cars at Turn 1.
George RUSSELL: Sorry?
Engineer: We don't think we'll be able to keep up with Leclerc here, so... Well...
George RUSSELL: Yeah, well... Maybe it's not worth being within DRS, but...
Engineer: We do get a penalty. Us, 10 seconds, we'll serve at the pit stop.
Carlos SAINZ: Who? Who gets a penalty? Me?
Engineer: You get.
Carlos SAINZ: Are you joking? You're joking. I mean, it's the most ridiculous thing I've heard in my life.
Carlos SAINZ: Make sure we go visit the stewards after the race.
Engineer: I want to have a talk with them.
Charles LECLERC: I think that was unnecessary. I mean, we can never know what happened, but honestly, the tires felt good. Anyway, I'm getting out.
Engineer: Double yellow where you are double yellow where you are. Oh
Liam LAWSON: my god, man.
Engineer: I
Liam LAWSON: could not see him at all You saved me there man It's okay
Engineer: Well, I don't have power Okay, you do not have power until 40% throttle. We could not fix it on track We could not fix it on track try and get used to it under the safety car just now try and get used to it Under the safety car just now
Max VERSTAPPEN: Yeah, right, it's not compelling.
Engineer: Yep, copy that.
Engineer: Possibly a few very light drops in pre-lapse time will be less than at the start of the race.
Engineer: I
Lando NORRIS: got smoke coming from in the cockpit. I think I smell something funny.
Lando NORRIS: Yeah, I think I don't know if I'm on fire or not. It doesn't smell good Smoking the cockpit.
