11:30KVYKvyatPitPitOk, for Charjon, Charjon, Magnussen behind is 3 seconds behind. Ok, pull toggle is very bad for turn 1, very poor, and the last corner is shockingly bad, with the rear slip.0:2311:31GROGrosjeanPitPitHe's such a cool guy. He gives you a tour when he's on the outlab. Always nice.0:0711:32GROGrosjeanPitPitAre you okay? Are you okay? Yeah, I'm okay. Tyre is completely gone. Okay, check vibration. I'll come back slowly.0:1111:33GASGaslyPitPitOK, thank you. Next one is Norris on that lap. And we need a good braking, please, where you can.0:0611:34NORNorrisPitPitYou were target minus one, both initial throttle and drive out were good.0:0911:34ALBAlbonPitPitLet's have a go at this next lap, we haven't really got time to do another cool down lap, so when Norris, he's on your tail, so recharge off, recharge off and you're good to go.0:1011:36OCOOconPitPitAnd just for reference, Esteban, you are currently P10. You are the fastest car on hard tyres.0:1011:38ALBAlbonPitPitStrat 12, Strat 12, stop in the box, hit the marks.0:0711:39OCOOconPitPitOk Esteban, practice your pit entry from turn 14. Esteban in. Copy that Esteban, practice your stopping position and then go to P1 please.0:1311:40HAMHamiltonPitPitAnd recommend the rearward B -Bell adjust for turn 10.0:0511:41SAISainzPitPitWarm front brakes where you can.0:0511:41HAMHamiltonPitPitAnd feels like the wind is just picking up a bit.0:0711:43SAISainzPitPitSuggest left hand side toggle turn 13 to help rotation. Left hand side toggle turn 13.0:0811:44SAISainzPitPitSo one thing, Lando is a slightly shorter lift in turn 6, but a bigger lift in 7, fairly close on lap time, maybe just a few milliseconds in Lando's favour, Carlos, but he could try the other approach through there.0:1611:44SAISainzPitPitSuggest to avoid the turn 6 apex kerb. Avoid the apex kerb turn 6.0:1011:46NORNorrisI need to go down, down two. OK, understood. On this tyre, I only need to do one more time -lap. Do you want to do the front wing adjust now? OK, yes, man. Yeah, OK. So, minor, purple C13, position six. Purple C13, position six. And back to purple C1. And Lando, just check your baseline brake balance.0:2511:48ALBAlbonPitPitSo again, just think about your front, warm -up, front brakes, give them a good work. Uh, drivability feels pretty poor. Yeah, understood. We think it's because of the motor in. So you can do recharge on. Recharge on, please.0:1511:49KVYKvyatPitPitHey Dani, double cool down will be double cool down.0:0711:49ALBAlbonPitPitRecharge on, recharge on, and we'll cool the tyres down, beep out 6 please, beep out 6.0:0711:50BOTBottasPitPitSo, strat 3, you're good to go.0:0511:51KVYKvyatPitPitAnd Dani, we went out, track limit turn 4, so the lap time is deleted. Yeah Michael, get rid of this f***ing track limits.0:1411:52ALBAlbonThere's not much difference in the tyres. Yep, understood, I can see that from the lap time.0:0711:52SAISainzPitPitCarlos, test green shape 1 for turn 11, 12 and 13. Green shape 1 for turn 11, 12 and 13 and reset to green shape 2 for the final corner. I did the whole lap in shape 1 and then went to shape 2 in the last corner. Copy, happy with that.0:2611:55HAMHamiltonPitPitYour perforce sectors are 1 and 2, just down the 10th in the final sector, so that was braking, minimum speed in the final corner, and then braking, turn 13.0:1711:55VERVerstappenAh lovely, I think the tyres are flat spotted.0:0611:56BOTBottasPitPitIt could be rain approaching last corner. I check for spits on the visor.0:0811:58LECLeclercYeah, tyres just don't feel good, I mean, even one lap on these tyres on this track, we know how bad it is, so yeah.0:1111:59GROGrosjeanPitPitBig, big, big, big, big understeer. What should I do? Shape, diff, torque. Ok, I'll come back to you.0:1912:00GROGrosjeanPitPitWe think Torque 6 could help you out. Torque 6.0:0612:00VETVettelComing in for flap adjust. Is that essential? Because we need to complete this program with these tyres and then we can go on the other side. Still counts as a flying lap, doesn't it? No, because it's in an in -lap.0:1512:01VETVettelComing in for flap adjust, plus, three clicks please. Is that essential, because we need to complete this program with these tyres, and then we can go on the other side? Still counts as a flying lap, doesn't it? No, because it's in a in -lap. OK, staying out then. OK, copy.0:2412:02HAMHamiltonPitPitJust getting reports of very light rain.0:0712:02PERPerezPitPitSo checking no rain, no more rain expected.0:0612:02STRStrollPitPitSainz, do you want another one, or do you want... I can try one more, but I would need a double cool.0:1012:03SAISainzPitPitWarm the front brakes.0:0412:04KUBKubicaPitPitAnd you can see... I'm on the target. Ok, copy. Your fronts are a bit high, if you can do anything. Traffic behind is good. Yeah, I cannot do a lot by front tyres, I can cool down rears, but... Do your best, yeah.0:1612:08KUBKubicaPitPitOK, Robert, mode charge and I suggest box. I doubt we can improve the lap time, let me know. And if you want to box, we need mode S. Well, it will be difficult to improve, but I can learn something for me, not for the team, so it's up to you. Yeah, the fronts are understeer here, hot, for whatever reason.0:2412:09GASGaslyYeah, we need to fix the engine braking, it doesn't work. Ok, we are looking now.0:1412:10GASGaslyPitPitFail, 10, fail, fail, 10, fail, update on tyres when you can. They are not great, just the tractions are very difficult. Copy that, we'll do one more time, one more time.0:1512:13BOTBottasPitPitClutch paddle 1 % deep.0:0512:14KVYKvyatPitPitEngine 11, position 5, engine 11, position 5. I have a big lack of brake efficiency everywhere.0:1212:15RICRicciardoPitPitAnd how's the balance so far? Yeah, um, bit of a mixed bag, but um, yeah, I feel like I'm front limited early in the lap. Ok, understood.0:2312:16LECLeclercOh, what the hell is he doing?0:0712:17OCOOconPitPitPerez is 5 seconds behind. He might be a good car to try and get a tow off at the start of your time -lapse.0:0812:19STRStrollPitPitIt's a bit more management in turn 12, bit more management in turn 12.0:0912:20ALBAlbonPitPitDo you feel any change in the car on this run? I'm just struggling so much with fronts, I mean, it's no understeer again, but it's not a fair test really because of the day on the fronts. OK, understood. If nothing's changing, then we'll box this lap and try and go back on the change. So if you've got a good feeling for it, we'll box this lap. Let us know. Yes, OK, box.0:2812:22LECLeclercPitPitAnd compared to Sebastien, we should try to improve apex turn 4 and 6, Sebastien. Yeah, but compared to which lap, I've had one lap in traffic and one lap with all tyres. Push, push. Yes, but compared to which lap, which lap are you taking, the first one or the second one? Your second lap, watch for traffic with Latifi and then Hamilton.0:2512:24GROGrosjeanPitPitUh, yeah, area's already completely going. OK, dude, let's increase our management a bit if we can. Yeah, where? Focus on rear left tyre. Yeah, if he doesn't... I think we should box to remove 1 % of A -ball. OK, we can box, we can box now around the box. Yeah, box, box, box.0:3112:26NORNorrisPitPitAnd minor, Scenario 9 please, Scenario 9.0:0412:26ALBAlbonPitPitOk Alex, so we've got time for a fast lap, a cool down, and then we'll be boxing, but we'll push on that in lap. Ok, so we'll get ready, assume it's a fast low fast, but we will box on the second fast.0:1312:27ALBAlbonPitPitOK, so it will be straight out and you will have Sainz, Nisseni and Giovinazzi approaching Turn 1 hot laps. So three quick cars coming now. That's one, that's two, one more. OK, clear track behind. Thank you. Next one behind, Magnussen, 15 behind. Magnussen is high fuel. There's a big gap behind him if you need it.0:2412:28NORNorrisI need to come down on front wing. Down three. Understood. OK, Lando, you can come in now, you can come in. The box is busy, so we're going to pull up in front of Carlos, in front of Carlos. Lando, did you say down three, down three? Yep. OK, it's happening.0:2212:29OCOOconPitPitSo if possible just practice turn 14 to pit lane entry.0:0612:30LATLatifiPitPitYou can obviously see a vibration on the front left, last one, trying to get in the middle of it.0:0812:31RICRicciardoPitPitOK, and after the final corner, can we press and hold the overtake and push until turn 2 please?0:0912:33NISNissanyPitPitThank you everyone, thank you very much. Yeah, thank you, good job.0:06
