Japanese, 2025, Race, 6 Apr 2025

14:53, OCO: Pit: Please swap out of turn 14 22 laps to go probably next time anything fast. 0:09

Chinese, 2025, Sprint Qualifying, 21 Mar 2025

Qatar, 2024, Race, 1 Dec 2024

09:23, OCO: Pit: So wind direction looks like as we predicted so you've still got that tailwind exit 10 where you've got the snap there. 0:7.209:25, OCO: Should we increase the turn at the stop or no? We can, yep. 0:6.909:29, OCO: So it's a little bit difficult with the entries, but there's a lot of them on this tier mid corner, so increasing actually wasn't much worse on entry, but. 0:11.4

Qatar, 2024, Qualifying, 30 Nov 2024

12:10, OCO: Pit: On the steer, so I think we're good to keep that. Copy, so at the moment I think the default is still prep fast. 0:09

Qatar, 2024, Sprint, 30 Nov 2024

08:19, OCO: Pit: Okay, so just open modifier for two, four, and five. 0:5.308:43, OCO: Thank you. Yeah, I hope you like that one Not too shabby at all. Okay, so how was balance for us please with that? 0:9.2

Qatar, 2024, Practice 1, 29 Nov 2024

07:34, OCO: Pit: Most of these places are where we're going through a crosswind so. 0:5.108:19, OCO: The car is super inconsistent basically, from entry to mid -corner, it's basically not possible to carry the speed. OK, understood. So is that mainly from the rear end? Well, front end understeer mid -corner and then basically the rear end snaps massively. So we could consider just opening up that diff mid a little bit, that might help with the mid -corner. 0:28.7

Las Vegas, 2024, Race, 23 Nov 2024

23:30, OCO: Pit: Any other issues? Have you tested the drinks here as well? Yeah, we do now.
