Piastri, let's use the IN button, the IN button, and confirm this as you're going to grid now, so IN button, stay negative on the delta time, and drive to the back of the grid where the guys will meet you. When you get to the back of the grid, one static bike point line. Copy, approaching last corner.

RIC
Ricciardo
Pit
Pit
For doing the formation lap, make sure you work these tyres as much as you can, try to keep temperature in them, sector 1 and 2, and then sector 3 can probably get a bit more in it.

So it's Vettel, Perez and Magnussen on hard, everyone else medium except the top 10 obviously.

OK Esteban, so just looking after the tyres now, Gasly behind on soft, Daniel's managed to hang on to his place on hard, and he's got Vettel on hard right behind you, Gasly gaining, watch for Gasly.

And go race mode 6, go race mode 6, come on mate, push on Fittipaldi. Stay with Perez, stay with Perez mate. Car is all over the place. Are the brakes under control? Happy with the front brakes, focus on your driving mate, keep pushing, DRS enabled.

Kvyat, DRS or not quickly? Kvyat, no DRS. I have very little grip compared to them right now. Copy, Kvyat still outside DRS. Carlos, soft looks good on a couple of other cars as well, be patient with the medium, just be patient, it'll come to you.

Sainz
Yeah, my front right is on the limit of graining. Not yet, but on the limit. Copy. Keep managing the push on exits. Keep managing the push on exits where you can straighten the exits. Still early to say on the soft. First signs of graining on some cars.

FIT
Fittipaldi
Pit
Pit
Pacewise you're matching Kevin and Latifi's not closing you down from behind, still one and a half seconds back to Latifi. How is the balance? A bit understeer mid and then traction, a little bit problem.

OK, Span, need to watch Vettel behind you with DRS, but also rear slips, exit at 14, and high rear temperature through turn 3. Yeah, I need to push, I'm sorry, but I can't manage more. Catch up to Daniel. But the grip is very poor at the moment. Copy.

Can you give me a bit of a, take me through where exactly I'm losing, because it feels like everywhere, the car's just not turning. OK, copy, hopefully with that reset on balance, it should turn a bit better now.
