13:48NORNorrisAudio only14:00RAIRaikkonenPitPitOk, we can go.0:0414:03GASGaslyPitPitAnd we need a good hard braking where you can in the last sector. We build the megaplot delta with the small brakes.0:1014:03PERPerezPitPitTyres are looking good. Positive on the brakes here.0:0614:04VETVettelPitPitSo you can call the fronts, the rears don't need a massive amount of cooling.0:0614:05GASGaslyPitPitDo you need the flap adjust? Yeah, for me it was either the tyres or I don't know, but very poor grip to start. Okay, we try again. Single cool down.0:1514:06PERPerezI'm struggling a bit with front end. Cannot reach the front one. Do you want to flap adjust?0:0914:07PERPerezYep. Yeah, let's go up.0:0614:09VERVerstappenPitPitMain losses, turns 4 and 6, 4 and 6.0:0714:10RUSRussellHow was that lap? Currently four tenths down to Räikkönen.0:0914:11GIOGiovinazziPitPitWe go for one more push, at the moment all ok on traffic behind.0:0814:11PERPerezPitPitYeah, front right a little bit on the cool side still.0:0514:13VERVerstappenPitPitYour purple, sectors 1 and 3. We're half a tenth down to Checo in sector 2.0:0714:16TSUTsunodaI have a bit of a mistake. I wanted to change the helmet to a completely clear visor. No. Copy, Yuki, will do. Keep up the pace in the end lap, please. Keep up the pace. Nobody pushing behind.0:1714:17TSUTsunodaShould I change the helmet first before you give feedback or first feedback? So helmet is not here yet. Actually it's here, so we change the helmet. Go ahead.0:1314:26MSCSchumacherYeah, 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. OK, understood.0:2914:27STRStrollPitPitOK, we need to keep the engine speed up please, above 8 ,000. Can I just use higher gears? Yes, you can.0:1214:31NORNorrisAudio only14:31STRStrollPitPitOK, Lance, we may have a bit of damage, so it might be loss of front wing, so maybe a bit more understeer in this lap, so take a margin. We can go mid -six in anticipation, mid -six to anticipate that.0:1514:33VETVettelPitPitLet me know on traffic. Yeah, yeah, so you're currently clear behind 14 seconds. First car pushing is Ricciardo, 14 seconds back. The question is, if we have to do a double call, Sebastian, that's going to eat into our high fuel quite a lot.0:1914:34RICRicciardoPitPitSo Daniel Landau did a 23 .6. That time to find is all between turn 1 and turn 6.0:1314:35HAMHamiltonPitPitI really need to get on with the program. I'm lacking high fuel.0:1014:36PERPerezPitPitDo you want to flap adjust? You felt a bit too aggressive, front end. OK, we can come through the pit lane, drop a bit of flap out.0:1214:38LECLeclercI can do another cool down. Not for timing, we need to do the high fuel, so box this lap, box. Copy.0:1014:39GIOGiovinazziPitPitYou think you can improve? Otherwise we box. Yeah, I don't know, the terrace for sure is not anymore in good shape, but I always hit traffic.0:1114:40VERVerstappenJust keep talking to me because I cannot see what's behind. Yep, you've got Alonso behind on an out lap, I suspect he'll want to get by you.0:1114:41GIOGiovinazziYeah, check the car again, I have something that is not too important on the left side. Copy Antonio, we will check.0:1014:42GASGaslyIs the wind still the same? Confirmed, confirmed, same as previous run.0:0914:43TSUTsunodaPitPitEngine braking 10, engine braking 10.0:0514:43BOTBottasPitPitSo Pistot will be in second gear, stay in first gear on limiter. Make balance for the line.0:0814:44RUSRussellPitPitIt's a mid to high 29.0:0614:44VETVettelPitPitSo we're thinking three time laps on this tyre to get more on the medium, so three full time laps.0:0714:45HAMHamiltonPitPitPassed through the pit lane for another start.0:0514:46GASGaslyYeah, the grip is pretty **** out of the box.0:0614:48HAMHamiltonPitPitAnd you are shallow by 4 % on the clutch. And if we can push on entry and exit.0:0714:48MSCSchumacherPitPitMode T4, mode T4, Gasly ahead may have a problem.0:0714:49BOTBottasPitPitSo not many references, Alonso on the medium, low 29s, Ocon on the soft, high 28s.0:0914:50VETVettelPitPitSo practice more management in 12 .13. Practice more management in 12 .13.0:0714:51RICRicciardoPitPitSuggest green shape 1, green shape 1. Vettel and Alpine are doing 29 -0.0:1014:52VETVettelPitPitSo that was a hard pushing out lap. We're happy to do this next lap pushing reasonably hard like racing and then we need more management, 12 -13 especially. We'll do 5 full time laps, we'll get 5 full time laps. So that was a hard pushing out lap, we're happy to do this next lap pushing reasonably hard like racing and then we need more management, 12 -13 especially.2:2514:55STRStrollPitPitLeclerc, Norris, Perez, and then there's a gap to Hamilton. The only option we've got, Lance, is to let three cars through. Leclerc, Norris, Perez, and then there's a gap to Hamilton. Is there a gap behind Leclerc? Is there a gap behind Leclerc? Negative, three seconds to Perez. So we'll get three timed, we'll have three timed, target 29 .1.0:2714:56LECLeclercThey are using DRS again. Copy, understood. What should I do? Keep going like this? Yes, keep pushing like this. Okay, at what point will it be useful for me to do laps alone?0:2114:57VERVerstappenPitPitHamilton building himself a gap, you've got 6 seconds behind Takimi, ease it up, make use of the last 2 laps. I'm going to have strat 4 please, strat 4, gap Takimi, he's at turn 15 apex, gap is at 4 seconds.0:1914:58HAMHamiltonGet behind. And you've got 5 seconds.0:0614:59RICRicciardoPitPitYou'll take the chequered flag this lap. You can push.0:0514:59MSCSchumacherPitPitOne more timed after this one. Let's just push the tyre to its limit.0:0615:00STRStrollPitPitOK, that's checking flag launch, so it will be box, box, box, box.0:0615:01VERVerstappenPitPitMax, just give yourself a good margin, pass Hamilton if you need to, give yourself a good margin, we'd like to assess the pit lane entry please, so we'd like you to push from turn 15 to the box.0:1215:02VERVerstappenPitPitOK, now maintain track position, but just give yourself good margin to the car ahead to be able to attack pit lane entry. No, impossible mate, they're pushing from behind, not pushing in front.0:13
