18:30RICRicciardoAudio only18:30SAISainzPitPitWhich set of tyres is this, Tom? U1, run 1.0:0418:30RICRicciardoPitPitNice one, and radio check. Yep, loosey -goosey. Okay, and it's about 15 seconds to the green light. Okay, you sound husky and beautiful. Do my best for you.0:1918:31HAMHamiltonHad no power for a second, is everything okay? Yeah, copy that, everything is fine Lewis.0:1118:31HULHulkenbergPitPitOK Niko, box in this lap, would you like a front wing adjustment? Bit late, no I'm not for now. Clutch drop was very good Niko.0:1118:33BOTBottasPitPitSo, cool the car and let us know if everything feels okay. Everything feels good. Okay, so if you want a flap adjust, let me know. Otherwise, just drive through. Yeah, no adjust for now. Okay, so drive through for another start.0:2118:34HAMHamiltonRears in the window. We've got rears leading the front currently, just in the window.0:0818:35MAGMagnussenPitPitOK, Kevin, so from Mike, please drop the clutch to the normal race start position. Drop clutch to normal race start position for this start. Understood.0:1218:36LECLeclercPitPitAnd we need to cool down a bit, cool down, and box now box.0:0818:37MAGMagnussenPitPitOK, and we'll go to the grid, some full throttle just to help us charge up a bit when you can.0:0618:37RICRicciardoJust one for the helmet, I think I lost my straw. There's not a straw in here to drink. Yeah, copy that.0:1118:41BOTBottasPitPitAnd he's ready for the grid. So comments from Valtteri, with the soft, he can feel already quite a lot of overeating, but he thinks he will ultimately still be the front left, and he was obviously quite open on the diff, and he can go up and back, so he's happy to stay at the top.0:2019:03HAMHamiltonMy front tyres weren't in the window, right?0:0419:03HAMHamiltonPitPitSo yeah, the front tyres were below the window on those laps to grid, and we had the rears, so the rear surface temps were leading the fronts.0:1219:04SAISainzPitPitCarlos, currently no rain on the radar, no rain expected. Obviously the weather forecast is still that there's a risk towards the end of the race.0:1119:06HAMHamiltonCan you just find out what Chubb thinks? Yeah, copy, Chubb was just saying that he thinks it's going to stay hot for this first stint, so he would also be keen on going down that one extra turn. Feels like the rear is going to be an issue.0:1519:07NORNorrisPitPitEverybody with a free choice starts medium, apart from Ricciardo, who has a hard -on.0:0719:08RICRicciardoPitPitAlright, so, final reminder, so, get speed limiter off after the engine is fired up, and keep that until pole position. Alright, mate, bike and Suzuka, pick them up one by one, have some fun out there, fuck some shit up.0:1519:14NORNorrisPitPitCheck for punctures to the sentry.0:0419:15LECLeclercPitPitSlow button on, slow button on, everything is fine for us.0:0719:16LECLeclercPitPitSo at the moment, positions behind you, Sebastian, Albon and Sainz.0:0819:17MAGMagnussenPitPitDRS enabled, DRS enabled.0:0419:18SAISainzPitPitOk, currently we have a 4 second gap to clear out in P9, let's try and make plan A work.0:0619:19VERVerstappenPitPitLooks like a right rear puncture Max, right rear puncture, look out.0:0919:20PERPerezWhat the f*** is Verstappen doing, man?0:0419:22ALBAlbonPitPitThink about your tyres. Doing a great job, Alex.0:0719:23BOTBottasPitPitAnd still we need to cool those brakes, it's critical now. Yeah, doing my everything on that.0:1019:25MAGMagnussenPitPitKevin, brake balance one click forward, we have a lot of rear locking, same pace as cars ahead, good job. No sign of graining, no sign. Yes understood, rear overheating very high, brake balance forward if you can take it will help, the lift and coast will help.0:1819:26SAISainzLet me know if you think I am over -managing. No, pace looks okay.0:0619:27RAIRaikkonenPitPitOK, keep ignoring the message on the dash, all good on brakes.0:0719:27GIOGiovinazziPitPitSwap position with Kimi, swap position. Why? We have to cool down the car a bit. Yeah, but why? We will give it back, we will give position back.0:1719:29NORNorrisPitPitLando, how are the tyres? How are the tyres? Dropping a little bit more now. Definitely R3, I think. OK, understood. Do you think plan A target is possible? Yeah, I think so. Better to be careful, better watch out.0:2019:30NORNorrisPitPitAlonso clear out pitted, we'd like to pick up the pace a little bit please, pick up the pace a little bit. Yeah I don't have much more left, Perez is coming as well.0:1119:31NORNorrisAudio only19:32SAISainzPitPitYou're doing a good job, you're gapping the Williams, they're doing 1 .24 .3.0:0519:32BOTBottasPitPitAnd Valtteri, do you think everybody will be on the one stop?0:0719:34VETVettelPitPitHow about plan C? How about plan C? At the moment everything is PG. OK, copy that.0:1219:34HAMHamiltonPitPitOK, so Leclerc has pitted, Vettel car ahead, last lap, 21 -3.0:0819:35VERVerstappenI certainly have no grip, it's very weird.0:0619:36RICRicciardoPitPitOk, so Nico is one second behind you in your DRS. And for info, Sainz stopped for hard tyres.0:0819:37LECLeclercPitPitAnd as you know Charles, this is a really important stint. What? Important stint, we need to push.0:1119:38NORNorrisPitPitOK Lando, I know this is **** and I'm really sorry, but our goal here is to prove what could have been, so we're going to do a really mega stint on this tyre.0:1219:40ALBAlbonPitPitIncrease liftoff turn one by 20 meters. Increase liftoff for turn one by 20 meters.0:1019:41PERPerezPitPitChoco, can we go any faster? Can we go any faster? How's the tyre? Yes, it seems to be coming back. We agree, we agree.0:1119:42HAMHamiltonPitPitRear's getting pretty hot, mate. Affirm. Currently Leclerc is on a two -stop.0:0919:42VETVettelPitPitGood lap, head down, 21 .5.0:0519:43LECLeclercPitPitAnd your pace is good, Albon behind at 11 seconds, his lap time is 20 .8.0:0819:44VERVerstappenAlright, got you to my wing, you just turned in on me.0:0619:45HAMHamiltonPitPitOK Lewis, so calipers are good now. Vettel last lap, 21 -3.0:0619:46VETVettelPitPitMode box, mode box. Let him go. What do you think of letting him go? Yeah, we are thinking, we are thinking and monitoring mode box anyway.0:1219:46STRStrollPitPitTurn 13, I need something. It's so bad there. What's bad, Lance? Tell me what's bad. I can't turn the car, I have no front end. But everywhere else I have a terrible rear.0:1519:47STRStrollPitPitDiff open for turn 13. Try diff open turn 13.0:0719:48HULHulkenbergAudio only19:48HAMHamiltonPitPitSo 0 .9 safe, 0 .9. We just need to manage these tyres now.0:0619:49LECLeclercPitPitAnd we need you to push as much as you can. I'm tired. Tired as hell. But I'm quite different than the previous ones. Copy, understood.0:1419:50VERVerstappenPitPitGary Hulkenberg ahead, 7 lap old, hard tyres, his pace is a 22 .7.0:0819:50HAMHamiltonPitPitI don't know if the gap is enough, man. You come out on fresh tyres.0:0819:51VETVettelPitPitAnd mind your rear tyres at turn 12 and turn 6, turn 6 and turn 12.0:0719:52HAMHamiltonFeels like we stopped way too early.0:0619:52SAISainzPitPitAnd let's try and find a couple of tents. I want to close up to Kvyat if you can. We need to get the pit window on Ricciardo. We need to keep that pit window on Ricciardo.0:1019:53HAMHamiltonPitPitWe're doing a really good job here, Lewis. We've got track position. We stopped too early. There's a long way to go on these tyres, man.0:1219:54BOTBottasPitPitIf you close the gap to Vettel, you have a stab at P2.0:0719:55HAMHamiltonPitPitSo Vettel, last lap, 21 .3. We've got Leclerc up the road, 5 seconds, he's on a 2 -stop, so it's Vettel that we're racing. Are these tyres supposed to go as many laps? Yeah, affirm Lewis, the deg is very low.0:1619:56VETVettelPitPitHamilton lap time 21 .6, 21 .6 is looking good, keep it there.0:0719:57HULHulkenbergYou see what happened to Carlos Dave? As soon as you fight, they overheat and you're in trouble. Hey son.0:0819:58HAMHamiltonPitPitI'm going to be in trouble when he comes out. Yeah Lewis, we know it's going to be difficult, but we're on for a win if we can manage this well. Lewis, this is James, you can do this.0:1319:59ALBAlbonPitPitReminder, overtake button, if that helps.0:0420:00HULHulkenbergTyres don't feel that great. Copy that, Nico. Obviously, if we stop any time soon, the game is over. And, come on, any suggestion on brake balance is really ****, blocking everything. 21 .8 on 32 lap hards.0:1820:01SAISainzPitPitOk, Gasly 0 .5. Carlos, how's this tyre? How's this tyre? I need details on the tyre. Well, it's horrible, as you can see Tom. We have no place whatsoever.0:1320:03VETVettelPitPitAnd free air now, free air now, head down.0:0520:03VETVettelPitPitMode box, mode box, and push.0:0720:03ALBAlbonPitPitYou're doing great Alex, 36 laps completed, Bottas has now stopped, he's about 5 seconds behind us.0:1120:05MAGMagnussenPitPitHow is the balance? How's the balance? Balance is okay, just losing grip quite quickly.0:1020:06VETVettelWhat's the deal with Albon? He needs to stop again, Albon needs to stop again, Albon lap time 20 .7, unused medium.0:0920:07ALBAlbonPitPitGreat job, Alex. Keep it up.0:0720:09HAMHamiltonPitPitSo we are happy around 21 -0 Lewis. Remember that Oldman will close up towards the back of you slowly as he is on that two -stop. Vettel last lap, 20 .5.0:1420:11LECLeclercWhat are we waiting for, pit? We are trying to build a pace delta. My front tyres are dead. Copy, understood.0:1320:14LECLeclercPitPitSo Hamilton is leading the race at the moment and we think we'll need to fight with him at the end of the race.0:1020:15HAMHamiltonPitPitRicciardo is still finding time on that hard.0:0720:16SAISainzPitPitCarlos, we need a second on Gasly. His last lap, 1 .21 .0.0:06
