Emilia Romagna Grand Prix 2025: Race team radio

28 radio messages were recorded during race at the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix 2025, across 13 drivers. 26 of them have a transcript; the rest are audio only. George RUSSELL had the most, with 5.

These are transcripts of real team radio audio, produced by speech recognition and presented as an archive rather than as edited prose. Radio is clipped and noisy, so wording can be imperfect. Each message is attributed to the driver or their engineer, and the original audio is playable in the archive.

    George RUSSELL: Can we just do a full once-over of the car please? It just doesn't feel right especially in the rear, most likely it's the tyres.

    Engineer: Copy, Oscar.

  9. Yuki TSUNODARed Bull

  11. Carlos SAINZWilliams

    Engineer: Alex, 21.8, 21.8.

    Engineer: There is no gap right now and we are not ruling out plan C.

    Lewis HAMILTON: Understood.

  13. George RUSSELLMercedes

    George RUSSELL: It's like the rear track rod or something's broken. It's the rear, the movement, even

    Engineer: the

    George RUSSELL: straight line.

  14. Alexander ALBONWilliams

  20. Kimi ANTONELLIMercedes

    Kimi ANTONELLI: I got an issue.

    Engineer: Ok, copy.

  21. Charles LECLERCFerrari

    Engineer: We need to stay out. We don't have a tyre that can do to the end.

    Charles LECLERC: Soft will be better than that.

    Engineer: It's 17 laps, Charles. 17 laps to the end. How

    Charles LECLERC: many laps have my medium?

    Engineer: Your medium has 11 laps.

  22. Charles LECLERCFerrari

    Engineer: I'm looking to see if we can finish at the points or not, and I'm not being pessimistic. These tyres are going to be incredibly difficult to restart.

  23. Lando NORRISMcLaren

    Lando NORRIS: I see Oscar's tires are pretty dead, if we want any chance of trying to go for the lead then I guess we know what to do. I'm not asking to let me die, I'm just saying, let's not make it too hard for one another, that's all.

    Engineer: If

    Lando NORRIS: we fight then we could go backwards.
