Abu Dhabi, 2021, Race, 12 Dec 2021

12:58, MSC: Pit: Okay, it's two minutes till we go two minutes when we fire up press k1 on the deck We'll do the static flight point learn you'll switch the pit limiter on keep the pit limiter into the line and remember to go back to mode race start before the start and Funk for is set and we're ready to go. 0:2113:01, MSC: Pit: Okay, let's go Mick you got this. 0:5.413:16, MSC: Pit: Just see if you can get some tow back. It's very helpful to have the tow close it up a bit Yeah, I'll try. 0:8.813:53, MSC: Pit: Good laps, Mick. Latifi 29 -4. Turn 5 exit and turn 7 are the biggest losses to Latifi. 0:9.214:40, MSC: And now in English, thank you so much for everything guys, it's been an absolutely incredible year, learning and being with you guys, so it's been definitely a great first year, and I'm much much looking forward to next year with hopefully some nice battles. Yep, thanks a lot Mick, it's been a real pleasure for all of us, and you put all your bits together here in this race, and used all your tools and did a great job, can't wait till next year with a better car, thanks buddy. 0:36.5

Abu Dhabi, 2021, Qualifying, 11 Dec 2021

13:22, MSC: Pit: Copy that sorry about that. That's right. We'll make them make the car good for tomorrow. 0:7.6

Abu Dhabi, 2021, Practice 3, 11 Dec 2021

10:05, MSC: Just for your info, I know it was long. Say again, no error board? No, I just said I'm aware it was long. I didn't try to... Okay, yeah, no problem. That's fine. 0:16.6

Abu Dhabi, 2021, Practice 2, 10 Dec 2021

13:27, MSC: Pit: I don't know what you think about it but maybe do two back -offs just for the rears but I'm happy to do one. If we do two back -offs we'll probably only do one more push just in terms of laps and time. 0:18.213:53, MSC: I'll see what I can do, right now it's 3 and there's 90, there's a limitation Sir, let's go to EB4 and Norris close behind. 0:10.2

Abu Dhabi, 2021, Practice 1, 10 Dec 2021

09:37, MSC: Pit: So I don't know what you think. I think we could use the right toggle for 12 because there's a huge amount of rear locking there and then that would be okay for the rest of that sector. How did you find the rest of the lap? It's quite, yeah, very low grid. I think it's just also the track, like the new parts are quite slippery, a lot of oil, so that's just about trying to get to do that a bit better I think. Okay there's quite a lot of rear locking so we're just thinking if we give you a suggestion on that. 0:40.8

Saudi Arabian, 2021, Race, 5 Dec 2021

17:31, MSC: Pit: Okay, your Funk 4 is set. Have a good race. Have fun. Thank you. 0:5.217:47, MSC: Piedrake, Piedrake, Piedrake has next connected. 0:5.417:48, MSC: Pit: Are you okay, Mick? Are you okay? Yeah, I'm okay. Sorry about that. 0:9.817:49, MSC: Pit: It's okay. Just catch your breath there and then remember P1 and P0. Sorry, buddy. That was on me. On me. Sorry about that. 0:10.8

Saudi Arabian, 2021, Qualifying, 4 Dec 2021

17:20, MSC: I didn't turn on the DRS. 0:6.3

Saudi Arabian, 2021, Practice 2, 3 Dec 2021

17:28, MSC: I had a small contact with the wall, exit of turn 37. 0:8.717:51, MSC: Pit: Sorry about the no yellow. It's six more timed in the session. We're just deciding what to do. How's the tire holding up? It's alright. 0:12.217:55, MSC: Pit: Four more timed in the session. How's the tire? 0:9.8

Qatar, 2021, Race, 21 Nov 2021

14:00, MSC: Pit: Okay, have a good one. Let's do this. 0:5.314:34, MSC: Pit: If you need stability turn 10 the right toggle would help and then the big understeer corners you can try left toggle like six and seven. 0:9.715:38, MSC: Yeah, I just let it by before they get mad again. Yeah, yeah, you gotta do that. Okay. Well, there was some excitement at the end, at least you got to do a bit of racing. Yeah, sorry about that mistake, really. Just lost it. Shouldn't have happened. But anyways, Kyle was good, so thank you for that. We were right up there with them guys, so it's just a matter of time, hopefully. Yeah, understood. You're matching their pace with a car with less performance, so you did a good job. We did a good job. And we all are. I just again want to say thank you to all the guys, you know, bringing the car back together. That was awesome, really. I'm immensely, immensely proud of you. So, let's roll on to the last races. Yeah, good call. 1:1.2999999999999972

Qatar, 2021, Qualifying, 20 Nov 2021

14:22, MSC: Pit: Really good improvement Mick. Other guys turned things up a bit. So really good job though It's 0 .14 off of Giovinazzi and less than 0 .2 off of Latifi. Really good lap Yeah, it felt fun, so thank you Thank you for that. I think that's All there is really. Yeah, you put it all together. It's a good job We'll get him. 0:30

Qatar, 2021, Practice 3, 20 Nov 2021

11:02, MSC: Pit: Okay, red flag make red flag we need to box now do plus on Delta time. 0:7.111:07, MSC: Pit: Okay, stay out we'll go by one time. 0:5.411:47, MSC: Pit: Yellow turn 3, yellow ahead, Leclerc going slow. And watch for dust, so Leclerc's gone off track and he's maybe back on. There's yellow there. 0:15

Qatar, 2021, Practice 2, 19 Nov 2021

14:26, MSC: Yeah, it's unclear, I think at high speed it was still quite oversteery, which was limiting me a bit, but yeah, I think it probably would be the understeer because I had trouble with the rotation and the entries and mid corners and then exits were quite difficult on power. Okay, understood. 0:29.314:48, MSC: Pit: Mode T4, mode T4, Gasly ahead may have a problem. 0:7.114:59, MSC: Pit: One more timed after this one. Let's just push the tire to its limit. 0:6.1

Qatar, 2021, Practice 1, 19 Nov 2021

10:30, MSC: Pit: Mick when you pull out of the garage just don't wheelspin because there's this awkward drain that you saw the other day We just want to go across it smoothly. 0:10.410:35, MSC: The rays are getting really hot here. Yep, understood. 0:5.4

São Paulo, 2021, Race, 14 Nov 2021

17:18, MSC: Pit: Mode push, mode push. 0:3.517:46, MSC: Pit: Okay, so blue for Sonota and then hang on to the back of Sonota. There's a four second gap to Russell So just try and hang with Sonota get the tire temps up and we'll take this tire to the end if we can. 0:11.518:40, MSC: Pit: Well, good job keeping an interesting mick there at the end, that was really impressive to stay ahead. Tough luck at the beginning in the battles. Yeah, sorry about that. First lap was good though, I hope we brought it. Brandy was happy with that. Good. And again, a shame. I think we had good pace overall, so the car felt good. Changes we did were the right ones, so happy with that, thank you. I just want to say I love this track. Yeah, it's cool man. 0:38.5

São Paulo, 2021, Sprint Qualifying, 13 Nov 2021

20:08, MSC: Pit: Got pretty tricky there at the end. Yeah. We'll still discuss I think. I think a few positives. I think that's the main thing. It wasn't all negative. Yeah. You ended up like 11 seconds behind Kimi and about 6 ahead of Nikita. So there was some good phase of good balance and then lots of rear management and lots of rear dealing with for the rest of it. Yeah, exactly. It was that last section where I wasn't able to keep the tyres. No. It really came apart. The start was good. I was happy with the start. Couldn't get by anyways. There was just walkage in front. 0:51.4

São Paulo, 2021, Practice 2, 13 Nov 2021

15:05, MSC: Pit: Okay, brake balance one click rearward not sure about target lap time yet. Don't have enough reference info. 0:9.915:11, MSC: Pit: Right toggle is available for stabilizing 6 -7 if you need it. Copy. 0:9.315:26, MSC: Pit: Okay, how's the tire? How's the dig? Good. It was just a front lock that is annoying. I didn't want to see a competitor at all. 0:12.6

Mexico City, 2021, Race, 7 Nov 2021

18:54, MSC: Pit: Okay Mick, it's six minutes till we go. Six minutes, you can do some practice. 0:6.8

Mexico City, 2021, Qualifying, 6 Nov 2021

20:44, MSC: I have some engine push going into turn 4. Ok understood, we'll check. I'll check. Ok Mick, so just for temps, try to be just close to zero on delta time, we don't need to push too much on the syn lap, just for engine temps. 0:18.2

Mexico City, 2021, Practice 2, 5 Nov 2021

21:00, MSC: Pit: Okay, we're in mode slow, two burnouts, then mode race start, practice start. 0:7.321:49, MSC: Pit: I want to shape 4 forward. Let's go shape 4 and see what happens with the rears. How is the tires? How is the balance? It's alright. A bit of a flat spot. 0:13.8

United States, 2021, Race, 24 Oct 2021

20:56, MSC: Pit: Okay, Mick, leader Verstappen, 1 .5 behind. He'll be a blue soon. Okay, blue flag Verstappen, blue flag Verstappen. 0:10.921:45, MSC: Pit: Good job Mick, tricky to manage that rear for us, but you did well with it, did all you could. Yeah, thank you. Kind of felt good, all of those. Thank you for that. At least we had some decent fried chicken this week. That's true. Well soon we'll call it Winner Winner Chicken's Dinner, right? There you go. Next year. That's right. Next year. Thanks boys. 0:34.6

United States, 2021, Practice 3, 23 Oct 2021

19:17, MSC: Pit: So, turn 11 was all because of Hamilton, or was the car also tricky there? It was because of, it seems like the car was very tricky. Okay, yeah, you had a big rear lock at the end, so we'll have a look at that. 0:14.819:19, MSC: Pit: Alright, so I think we should go to shape 2, and brake balance 1, click rearward. And the shape 2 will help turn 11, and then the brake balance 1, click rearward will be for the other front locks. Copy. And what else was it like, what was the balance like in the 3, 4, 5, 6? I think the balance there was actually quite okay, it was decent, but I missed turn 1 a bit. With the wide way around, I felt that the front was on the side to lock up, so I just went straight. And then the last corner I had a bit of understeer, I think I'll just put the left toggle on for that. Yeah, it's worth a try. Okay, alright, we'll do another back off. 0:47.819:43, MSC: Pit: Leclerc 3, 2, 1. Next pushing Russell 16 behind. 0:9.1

United States, 2021, Practice 2, 22 Oct 2021

21:18, MSC: Pit: Okay, box now, mic box now, mode T4, big adjust to rearward. 0:6.2

United States, 2021, Practice 1, 22 Oct 2021

17:35, MSC: Ties dealt with slippery. 0:4.318:01, MSC: Pit: Remember mode restart when it's off. 0:0418:29, MSC: Pit: Oh, I didn't see it. Okay, watch for Verstappen. He's Perez. Okay, watch for Verstappen. He's behind. Yeah, I didn't see. Okay, watch for Bottas. Do you have damage, Mick? Watch for Bottas behind. I guess so. 0:22.5

Turkish, 2021, Race, 10 Oct 2021

12:21, MSC: It's wetter, now it's pointy, but it's fine. Understood. So we'll box now, box, drive through pit lane. 0:12.512:22, MSC: It's wetter, now it's pointy, but it's fine. Understood. So we'll box now, box, drive through pit lane. 0:12.413:06, MSC: Pit: Okay Latifi's behind I'll get the tires going again. 0:5.614:06, MSC: Pit: Use all the tire now use it all now Vettel behind us for position. 0:6.514:41, MSC: Pit: Checkered flag Mick, checkered flag. Yeah, copy. Tough day out there. Alonso did get a five -second penalty, doesn't change anything for us, but did well, just didn't have enough grip for you sometimes. Yeah. Well, big hopes. Still, thank you for everything. Loads of positives we can take away from here. So thank you for that boys. Yeah, good job. Some of your laps at the end were very good, very competitive. And overall, just thank you. Yep, thank you too Mick. 0:37.6

Turkish, 2021, Qualifying, 9 Oct 2021

13:20, MSC: Pit: We are through Mick we're through. Yes, nice work, buddy. 0:8.4

Turkish, 2021, Practice 3, 9 Oct 2021

10:28, MSC: Pit: but was then slightly too wide so then in where it was where it is more wetter than that span him as well so turn 11 there just looks like there's a slim line which you run which is fine and turn two yeah if we're just trying to avoid that white line. So Russell was on the white line? That's correct Russell was on the white line so just be careful as they have Bottas, Ocon, Vettel ahead Alonso behind and there's 32 minutes remaining in the session and it's not raining again. 0:29.710:50, MSC: Pit: Really good improvement there, just the wheel spin last corner. How are the tires holding up? Is the front right looking bad? Yeah, it's not looking great, but it still behaves okay. It's just the last corner where right now I had a bit of a difficult moment to bring it back, but otherwise it's okay. Okay. And you can still keep going on EB, that's about all you have left. You could try shape 5, it's a bigger step, but you can try it. I'll try EB 7. Okay, and then Norris on a push 12 behind. 0:36.110:52, MSC: Pit: Is the tire getting worse or is it still staying the same? Looks like it's getting more understeer every time, is that right, or not so bad? It's getting a bit more understeery but it's still drivable. We had a bit of derailing too. OK, understood, yep, I see it. I'll get that rebalanced for quality, so it's good we tried SOC 1. 0:23.411:04, MSC: Pit: Position pretty good, just a little to the right. 0:4.3

Russian, 2021, Race, 26 Sep 2021

13:25, MSC: Pit: Okay Mick, Sonoda ahead, also struggling with graining. Other people in traffic too. Nikita's under pressure now from Giovinazzi. Hopefully this graining will clear a bit. I guess you can hang back there with a bit of a gap until an opportunity comes. At this point though we want to just keep going because opportunities will come by running longer. 0:20.413:59, MSC: Pit: Mick we have to box now box to retire the car we cannot resolve the issue and it's a decaying situation I'm sorry about that. So box now, please to retire the car. 0:12.1

Russian, 2021, Qualifying, 25 Sep 2021

13:20, MSC: Pit: It was one second out from Q2, but really good, really good improvement. Uh, beep! Beep, beep, beep, beep! Beep. Shoot. 0:12.7

Russian, 2021, Practice 1, 24 Sep 2021

10:25, MSC: Pit: Okay, if you can, you can try to push braking more into turn two. I'm not sure about the defaults yet. I'll keep you updated. 0:10.5

Italian, 2021, Race, 12 Sep 2021

15:31, MSC: Pit: Okay, so just slow in high gear. All right, really good job, Mick. Way to overcome all that and catch back up. Great laps. Did well on that tire. Copy. 0:16.7

Italian, 2021, Sprint Qualifying, 11 Sep 2021

15:45, MSC: Pit: We have, like, a massive amount of re -walking in turn 1. Let's try multifunction A, PED 3, PED 3 for flat engine braking. 0:10.616:06, MSC: Pit: Ok Mick, you can box now, move when you stop, go P1, wait 3 seconds, go P0. We'll go through everything tonight, try to get something better for tomorrow. Thank you. Just know we are following here, it's very difficult. Copy that. 0:18.4

Italian, 2021, Practice 2, 11 Sep 2021

11:05, MSC: Pit: Rear locking is very low, so let's go brake balance one click rearward. 0:6.511:28, MSC: Pit: So reset funk. These tires still have reasonable temp so we'll just get them wrapped and go again. So it's double yellow through here. Be careful through here. Just be careful through here and mode slow, mode slow. Signs car on the left. 0:16.111:53, MSC: Pit: Is it any better in free air, or is it still just this dead condition? I feel the low grip on all four tires. But it seems like it's recovering a bit. Okay, understood. You have Vettel close behind. 0:16.1

Dutch, 2021, Race, 5 Sep 2021

14:05, MSC: Is everything okay with the car? Yeah, we're okay for now. Let's go to diff 23, diff 23. 0:7.715:40, MSC: Pit: Checkered flag Mick checkered flag tough race Mick way to get it to the end look like it was tricky to drive. See you soon Copy. 0:13.6

Dutch, 2021, Qualifying, 4 Sep 2021

14:04, MSC: Pit: Go ahead. What happened at the beginning of the lap, Matthijs, was really simply... Yeah, we saw the big snaps, but the wind didn't look too severe, so I'm not sure why, because the temps looked okay. We'll keep checking. 0:14.214:14, MSC: Pit: Okay, press in button press in button go negative on Delta time Okay, good lap there you're 0 .5 quicker than Nikita so keep pushing to save us some time Hi again, the EU7C at the beginning of a lap, what is it? 3 .0 Oh the tires not ready, like it feels like it Copy. 0:26.714:22, MSC: Pit: Okay, tough conditions out there, Mick. Unfortunately, we couldn't find any time. Nicky also didn't get his lap in, and then Kubica is just ahead, 0 .08, and then I think maybe... Yeah, I just started the lap way too close to Latifi. Yeah, understood. And I think we probably caused trouble for Vettel, so we may have an issue there. He was finishing his push when we were in the 13. So sorry about that. We didn't get it very right there, but we'll figure it out. I did, really. Yeah, but it's also like, you know, if they all take their space like that in the piddling, then it's hard to find it on track. Yeah, it's tricky stuff. Okay. See you. Yeah, understood. So we'll box now and just watch the weighbridge. See you in a minute. See you. Did Sebastian get through in two minutes? No. He's 17th. He's 17th. So he didn't get through. Neither did Perez. I think Perez didn't get his lap done. 1:14.400000000000006

Dutch, 2021, Practice 3, 4 Sep 2021

11:02, MSC: Pit: Okay, remember, mode push, mode push. 0:5.811:55, MSC: Pit: Massive tailwind there. 0:4.6

Dutch, 2021, Practice 2, 3 Sep 2021

14:36, MSC: Pit: Okay, can you go mode slow? Mode slow. If you can do CSL 5, you have Gasly behind. And then it's double yellow up here for Nikita. Double yellow. 0:13.7

Dutch, 2021, Practice 1, 3 Sep 2021

11:30, MSC: Pit: Okay, try to push more on the entry of 7, and you have a little bit of time, watch for Gasly is finishing a push now, Gasly 2 behind, Gasly 1, okay, mode push, need to go, mode push. 0:17.7

Belgian, 2021, Practice 1, 27 Aug 2021

10:34, MSC: Pit: And how is the track? It feels a bit wet, but it doesn't look wet. 0:10.7
