20:00LATLatifiPitPitOk, now it's green in 2, 1, and green, Niki. So remember, focus on your brakes, and then your hot lap procedure. Remember, turn 7 to 11, increase pace.0:1720:01RAIRaikkonenPitPitOkay, let's go!0:0420:02GIOGiovinazziPitPitGo, go.0:0520:03LECLeclercIt didn't sound good to stop the third setter in the middle. OK, we will check that.0:1120:04MAZMazepinCopy, crazy understeer. High speed, slow speed everywhere. Understood, understood.0:0820:05VETVettelPitPitI'm happy to lean on the front right a bit now through the high speed. And both wrists.0:0720:07SAISainzThe Alfa Tauri should have got out of the way. Understood. He hit me, clearly. OK, copy that.0:1020:07STRStrollPitPitAre you okay, Lance? Yeah, I'm okay.0:0720:08SAISainzPitPitYeah, happy to go again on this, these tyres, they're too new. Ok, understood.0:0920:09SAISainzPitPitStroll lost it, exited last corner, went into the barrier, it's fine.0:0720:09HAMHamiltonIs he okay? Yeah, copy. He's out of the car.0:0720:31TSUTsunodaPitPitAnd we need some weaving in the outlap. High speed weaving for the fronts. And good braking if you can.0:1020:33SAISainzPitPitI have no power. He's coming. Nothing, nothing, nothing.0:0720:34SAISainzPitPitno power, no power, you need to rev up, revs up, weight phase, try weight phase, you need to rev up, in neutral, nothing,0:1520:34RAIRaikkonenLet's leave enough space behind the cars, ok? Yeah, understood. This is gonna be that slow otherwise. End of the lap. Yep, yep.0:1320:36RICRicciardoPitPitA bit more full pedal for recharge if you can. Full pedal for recharge if you can.0:0720:37HAMHamiltonPitPitSo a single call, we'll go for a single call. Send the others, send the other tyres.0:1020:38RICRicciardoPitPitWe think we're okay, but we want to open a lap, see if you can find any time. There is time to find in turn one, braking and entry speed. Brake pressure's good, Lando just braking a bit later and carrying a bit more entry speed, so he gains one and a half tenths in turn one. Rest of the lap is very equal between you.0:2220:40HAMHamiltonPitPitSo Verstappen's just gone P1, 7 tenths to him, main loss is the braking for turn 1 and turn 13. Braking for 1 and 13. Yeah, copy, just with the pinches that you had.0:1620:40HAMHamiltonPitPitFront pressures look better this lap, so we strike two and you're good to go.0:0620:41MAZMazepinPitPitCopain, it's overtaking me because he's not to stop. Negative, stay behind, stay behind please. Are you having a laugh? I'm not having a laugh, Nikita. If you want to make a space now, make a space now.0:1420:41NORNorrisWill less engine braking help turn one oversteer on entry, or is it more brake balance? Yeah, we'll take a look now, we can discuss when they're back in the garage.0:1220:43HAMHamiltonPitPitSo 2 for Verstappen, it's down 1 tenth, sector 1, it's 2 tenths in the middle, and 9 hundredths in the final.0:1520:43PERPerezPitPitWave bridge, wave bridge.0:0520:44MSCSchumacherI had 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 same lap, just for engine temps.0:1820:45MAZMazepinPitPitI gave it everything I had there mate. Yeah man, that was really nice. That was a good lap dude.0:0720:46RUSRussellPitPitWe are through mate, that was P14, well done. Great job guys. Two gearboxes and an engine in 24 hours is definitely not bad going. Let's see what we can do in the G2.0:1420:52RICRicciardoPitPitOK, so Lando is ahead of the two Mercedes. He's going to try and come back towards you.0:0720:53NORNorrisPitPitAnd Lando will need to try and come back towards Daniel. Yeah, no problem. Bottas and Hamilton between you two. Daniel in turn 1.0:1120:54NORNorrisPitPitAnd Lando, this is a message to all teams. We will be doing a warm -up lap and then our time lap.0:0820:54RUSRussellPitPitTrack is going two tenths.0:0420:55VETVettelPitPitYou can do a bit of high -speed weaving, just put the temper on the rear.0:0620:55VERVerstappenCan we check the left hand side, underneath the barred road I think, the way I hit the kerb in turn 2? OK, understood.0:1120:56RICRicciardoPitPitDaniel, are you happy this is a first lap tyre?0:0720:58GASGaslyWe are looking. Box, box, box, box.0:1320:58VETVettelI've got a tear off stuck to the rear wing. Copy that, we'll get that later.0:0721:02VERVerstappenPitPityeah so eyes on dash particularly rear left eyes on dash0:0921:03RAIRaikkonenPitPitOk, I think it would be a good idea to start building a gap quite early, you will have like 6 cars ahead starting the lap.0:1221:04PERPerezPitPitV -charge on, we can box this lap.0:0621:05PERPerezI think I have front wheel damage on the front lift.0:0621:06RICRicciardoI've messed up turn 4. Can I abort? Yeah, happy to abort. Recharge on, box this lap, cool the car into turn 12.0:1021:07OCOOconPitPitI couldn't go past, because there was a yellow flag, so I couldn't pass the cardo at that time. So I had to back off. Yeah, you weren't quite in the yellow sector, I don't think. We'll look at that afterwards, but it's okay. It's all good.0:1521:08VETVettelYeah, copy. I don't know what happened at the first one. I just had no grip.0:0721:08VETVettelPitPitThere's two cars ahead that have got penalties, Norris and Tsunoda, so that'll be a P9 start. OK, well done guys. And yeah, that was a good recovery last lap. Apologies for the out lap earlier.0:1821:09RAIRaikkonenBoth sets of medium hazard timing, front lockup. Copy.0:0921:15TSUTsunodaGuys, the car is not cold enough. It's okay, Yuki, it's okay, we manage it.0:0821:16NORNorrisPitPitSo Lando, a thought from me. After we let Daniel through, we need to do one of two things. Either keep the pace up to try and stay ahead of cars, or drive slowly to let them go through to give us the best space for our time lap. It's not clear which is going to be better. Tsunoda likely to be in the same condition as us.0:2221:17TSUTsunodaPitPitCiao John, very gentle on throttle, very gentle on throttle.0:0621:18GASGaslyPitPitWe're asking you to keep opening the gap in the low speed to McLaren, to avoid... Yeah, but it's fine, I don't want him in the high speed, so I rather Norris letting me pass after turn 3. Ok, copy. Don't worry, they are still close in front.0:1821:18BOTBottasPitPitYemen.0:0521:19BOTBottasPitPitSo currently P1, charger packs, box, box, box.0:0621:19VERVerstappenPitPitHow were the tyres and how was the balance? Still not good mate, just sliding on the rear.0:0721:20LECLeclercPitPitYeah, I mean, let's report. I mean, I don't know who is the cab in front, but it won't change much for him. I don't know if they have hit him purpose or what, but yeah, I mean, I was at one and a half seconds behind. It's slowing myself down quite a lot from the last sector. Thank you.0:3321:22TSUTsunodaHonestly, I will do my job. I'll focus my job for the next one, but I'm really pissed off for this one, really.0:1221:23VERVerstappenPitPitOK, so Norris and Ricciardo at turn 2 -3. Norris is towing Ricciardo, so they all come as a 2. Sunoda and Gasly also now at turn 3. Sunoda towing Gasly.0:1621:24RICRicciardoPitPitSo Lando's the lead car.0:0521:27BOTBottasPitPitAnd that's pole position. Oh, yes! Haha! Oh, thank you. That's nice of you. Viva Mexico!0:1121:28VERVerstappenUnbelievable, we're such a dumb idiot.0:0621:29VERVerstappenWhat the f*** happened there in front of me? Not quite sure. Slow button on please, Max. Sunoda just... don't know, parked it. Bocheco had to back out. Unbelievable. Such a dumb idiot.0:1721:29NORNorrisPitPitOkay cool, well done mate. When you're happy turn it off, jump out and check it's off once you're out. I don't think the FIA were expecting you back that quick.0:1121:30BOTBottasPitPitTop of the show, man. And I'll tag us tonight. Not 30, I hope. Never give up. No way.0:0921:31TSUTsunodaI mean I, I, I let him pass really, I didn't do anything though. Ok, Bottas behind pushing, and Hamilton behind pushing, 4 seconds, Hamilton behind, and box, box, Yuki box, stop FIA bridge, stop FIA bridge. Anything though, I couldn't do anything though. Understand, you gave him space and couldn't do anything more, understood. P1, wait for the message on P0. So Yuki we are in front of Norris and Gasly P5, so very nice job.0:5021:31PERPerezPitPitBox traffic. Ah, ****. That guy was never the same, man.0:0821:33GASGaslyOk mate, that's it, P5. Fantastic guys, so happy, very happy, very good job. Thanks to Yuki for playing a very good part in this rally, so thanks for that and very good car as well. We achieved the job now, let's do it tomorrow. And by the way, the gap to P6, Sainz is 3 tenths. Nice one, that was a very good lap, very good lap but very good car, so very good job. Yeah, good job to you as well.0:3521:33LECLeclercPitPitOk, so, positions, Bottas. I know the positions, it's ok. Copy. I got overtaken by Bottas, I don't know what to do. Stay there, stay there. Lap time of Gasly. Gasly, lap time, 16 .45. Now that was our position. Yeah, agreed. And P0 please, P0. Let's focus on the race for tomorrow.0:3721:36RICRicciardoPitPitOK, Daniel, so we're P7. P7. You'll be disappointed to hear that Sainz is 2 milliseconds faster than you, but we're ahead of Leclerc. These small gaps, OK, that's on me. I've locked into 13, so, yeah, that's on me. I mean, 2 milliseconds is a haircut, Daniel. All right, guys, thank you. I think clean side of the grid will be good for us, so let's take that. Yeah, we can definitely, we can bring the fight to these guys from here tomorrow, so it's all good. Yes. Yeah, that's, that worked very well. We're 20 milliseconds off purple in sector 1. Well done, mate. We'll speak later.0:5521:36SAISainzPitPitYeah, V6 confirmed, and charge P8. I don't understand this ****** circuit. Yeah, it's what they've been talking about all the weekend so far, right? It's not a surprise to me, being in the car so difficult to drive. Good job out there. It was a bad lap, I just don't know how I did that. Anyway, thank you. Charge off and more slow, thank you. 12 minutes, it's a focus for tomorrow. Let's go.0:32
