16:53MAZMazepinDrinks pipe is again too long and it's going inside my seat. Same as Qatar. Copy that message.0:0916:55VERVerstappenPitPitMinimize the clutch usage please, that's an urgent message, thanks, thank you.0:0816:57PERPerezPitPitSo, any issues with the car? No, not good. Lovely.0:0616:58VERVerstappenPitPitWas everything okay to the grid max? Yep.0:0817:03RICRicciardoPitPitAnd wind update, very calm, similar to P2.0:0517:26BOTBottasPitPitUnder laps to the grid, wind confirmed to be nothing, we're just measuring the swirl.0:0617:28HAMHamiltonMatt, Doug, you happy with the start? Hey from Lewis, all good. We just worked the tyres in the formation lap, they should come to us.0:0817:31ALOAlonsoAudio only17:31MSCSchumacherPitPitOkay, your funk 4 is set. Have a good race. Have fun. Thank you.0:0517:31ALOAlonsoPitPitThis could be a wild one. Let's go for it. Nothing to lose. Yep, let's go fishing.0:1017:35LATLatifiI got bumped off by the half. One of the halfs hit me.0:0617:35OCOOconContact with Trinidad, but I think everything is okay, profit check though. Copy that, we're looking. All looks okay so far.0:0917:36GASGaslyPitPitBrakes are really hot, we need to manage where you can, sorry it's not easy.0:0517:37LATLatifiThe car feels very unstable at the rear end, more than I would have thought for a first lap.0:0717:39RUSRussellPitPitWhat's going on with Stroll? Are we going to stop the position or not? They're looking at it, yeah, copy, they're looking. OK, he'll give you the position back, Stroll will give you the position.0:0917:39SAISainzPitPitGood job, good job.0:0417:40ALOAlonsoYeah, I don't get it, how I can lose the next DRS, activating the DRS in the straight before.0:0917:42BOTBottasPitPitLet us know if you're not happy with the space and if you think you're under threat. Good do with 10mph gap in front.0:1117:43HAMHamiltonPitPitI don't have a second more pace than him. No Lewis, that's not what we need. Just a couple of tenths above Valtteri. He was 33 .6.0:1017:44GIOGiovinazziPitPitGood job Antonio.0:0417:44ALOAlonsoAudio only17:44ALOAlonsoYeah, we don't have deployment mate.0:0517:46OCOOconAre the temps normalising? Yeah, we're nearly there. All looking good so far.0:0517:47MSCSchumacherFire drink. I think my drink pipe has disconnected.0:0517:48MSCSchumacherPitPitAre you okay, Mick? Are you okay? Yeah, I'm okay. I'm sorry about that.0:1017:49HAMHamiltonPitPitSo we are going to box box.0:0517:49MSCSchumacherPitPitIt's okay. Just catch your breath there and then remember P1 and P0. Sorry, buddy. That was on me. On me. Sorry about that.0:1117:51VERVerstappenValtteri is driving massively off the pace. I agree, it's a ****, absolutely ****. That shouldn't be allowed, what he does.0:1217:52RAIRaikkonenBox, box, box, box, box. What? It's okay. I asked, I asked you earlier. We had a half a lap time to decide.0:1217:52VERVerstappenCan the safety car go faster? We're driving 100.0:0717:53HAMHamiltonPitPitYes, safety car, so did the last one. OK, copy. I'm not sure how long this is going to take. I imagine I've got to do a bit of barrier replacement.0:1017:55HAMHamiltonPitPitJust keep an eye on those callip attempts. I know you've got a bit of a split, but yeah, just keep an eye on that front right. Thanks for reminding me.0:1017:58HAMHamiltonDoes this not mean you can change tyres? Unfortunately Lewis, yes it does.0:0717:59TSUTsunodaI got a hit in the right rear, I'm for a pre -check at the start. Yep, we are checking.0:0817:59HAMHamiltonPitPitIt's a red flag, doesn't the tyre wall look fine? Find out what the reason for a red flag is. Affirm, Lewis.0:1318:00HAMHamiltonHave they said what the reason is? Not heard anything yet. Tyre wall looks fine. James, that was a big gamble that they just took. Because we were right behind them on the SCU. That doesn't even make sense. Does it make sense to you? It's a gamble because they stopped Perez and most people stopped in the top 10. Not 100 % sense, no. It's a risk we knew with that red flag. But we didn't think it was going to happen. We have potential. I'll come down and see you. There's still possibilities for us.0:3718:04ALOAlonsoHere we go, red flag. Ah, that's rubbish. Ah! Yeah, I can't believe it, you know. F***ing all season unlucky. It's a long way to go. Anything can happen, let's stay focused. Yeah, I know mate, but... F***, every decision we take, it was the other one.0:2418:11VERVerstappenPitPitOK, formation lap procedure in effect would be similar to the original formation lap max, as the original formation lap product is in between the sides of the throttle, and then once the safety car has come back into the pit lane, you take up your standing start. Um, a static bite point or not? Just one row before the Mercedes -Benz pit wall, two long burnouts, and a little brake application delay, and then the extra ramp for other stations down into your position. Could be a static bite point or not?0:4218:12RICRicciardoDo I need to do ACS again? Out of turn 10 or something? Yes please, yep, just the same as last time. Everything the same as last time.0:1118:12HAMHamiltonSo James, what's the scenario now, what have we got to do? Hi Lewis, main thing is this, everyone's going to go to the end of the race on these hard tyres now, but you had car pace at the beginning, and there's a few options we can throw in there with additional VSCs and safety cars. Main thing for now is pressure him, you had car pace.0:2218:13LECLeclercPitPitSo during this roller round lap we can talk to you and I will let you know standing start or rolling start. Just check the panels anyway. RS SS0:1518:14OCOOconPitPitSo for the race start, assuming you're standing, we'll be going to scenario 1 and recharge off, they'll be the only changes. Again, we can guide you through all that. Think of this as a formation lap where you've got me bothering you.0:1318:14HAMHamiltonPitPit30 seconds, select strap mode 1. And yeah, Verstappen on brand new hards.0:0818:15HAMHamiltonHe just did a start from the pit lane. No, that's his start in the pit lane, right? Yeah, he did a practice start.0:1118:16VERVerstappenWait, why is the safety car driving so slow? We cannot hit the tyres.0:0818:16VERVerstappenWait, why is the safety car driving so slow? We cannot hit the tyres.0:0818:17VERVerstappenMate, Louise is leaving way more than 10 cars, and she's not okay.0:0718:18VERVerstappenMate, it's still more than 10 cars. This is not allowed.0:0718:20MAZMazepinPitPitAre you okay, Maz? Are you okay? Yeah, mate. I'm sorry, but I couldn't avoid this.0:0718:21LECLeclercAll okay on the car, question? I think so. From data everything is fine.0:0818:22HAMHamiltonCan't cross the whole curve. Just retook me over, off, outside the white line. Roger loose, yep, we're on it. It's clearly ahead going here, man. Yeah, copy, we're on it.0:1518:22RICRicciardoIf they do another standing start, I think there shouldn't be a safety car because the pace is too slow for the formation lap.0:1118:23HAMHamiltonPitPitWe have to avoid the collision now.0:0518:30MAZMazepinPitPitAre you okay, Maz? Are you okay? Yeah, mate. I'm sorry, but I couldn't avoid this. Copy that, mate. Copy that. Okay, if we can't continue. Yeah, okay, go P1, wait three seconds, then P0, mate. We've just seen the video. It looks like you were a passenger in that, mate. Not your fault.0:1718:30RUSRussellAnd then absolutely inevitable. Roger. Yep, that's it. Brilliant. Copy. Stupid.0:1218:33PERPerezPitPitI got hit there by Leclerc, I think. Yeah, we saw it, Trekker. Nothing you can do.0:0918:34LECLeclercPerez forgot about me being here, I think.0:0718:39HAMHamiltonPitPitSo on this procedure, once it goes green at the end, Max is going to pull to one side, you and Esteban are going to pull away, and then he's going to slot in behind you.0:1518:41HAMHamiltonHow long is the race? What's the reason we didn't put on the new medium? Yeah, we've got 35 laps remaining Lewis, and this is the correct tyre.0:1218:41HAMHamiltonHow long is the race? What's the reason we didn't put on the new medium? Yeah we've got 35 laps remaining Lewis and this is the correct tyre.0:1218:42SAISainzVettel is leaving huge space behind.0:0418:44NORNorrisPitPitAnd Lando, they have confirmed it will be a standing start. Unclear on position yet. I need to know soon. Yep, I know. Nothing has come through as yet. Lando, we'll have to assume that we're starting where we are. Still tell me if there's anything. Yep, of course I will then.0:1818:45OCOOconA bit about the front wing. We're looking. Feels completely fine. Yeah, looks okay to us.0:0618:48STRStrollPitPitA good job with Sainz, let's get as close as we can.0:0418:49STRStrollPitPitIt's all draggy, man. Copy, Reichen and point seven behind, keep doing what you're doing.0:0618:49VERVerstappenLack of power guys.0:0518:50VERVerstappenPitPitOk, battery is just topping up at this stage Max.0:0618:50SAISainzPitPitWe believe cars in front are a second slower than us. The race will come to us. Look after your tyres.0:0918:53SAISainzPitPitWhat you're doing with the tyres is good? DRS radio. Copy.0:0518:59ALOAlonsoPitPitAll OK? Yep.0:0519:00VETVettelOh come on guys, now my car is f***ed.0:0719:01VETVettelPitPitIf something falls off, it's not the nicest place to do so. It's not great to drive. So we think the sparks behind us stop now, so don't think anything's dropping. Yeah, but I think I have no grip in high speed.0:1619:03SAISainzPitPitGood Sox selection, head down.0:0419:04GASGaslyPitPitA lot of vibration. Copy, we are checking. Engine vibration.0:0719:04ALOAlonsoI mean, there is a lot of debris inside of 6 and inside of 10. Same. Yeah, copy that.0:1119:04BOTBottasPitPitSo still a debris turn 8 onwards, small stuff.0:0519:06ALOAlonsoYeah, we need a safety car. I don't know if Michael is hitting or not, but the circuit is in the worst condition of the weekend, mate. I mean, we put the red flags, 100 red flags, and now we are racing at 300 kph with the circuit like this. Yeah, copy that. I'm sure he's listening.0:2219:06RAIRaikkonenVSC, follow the delta, mode SC. Ok, but now we stop if we want to change it, right now. If we want to change the front wing or something. Because we're going to get overtaken anyhow. We can't do anything on your floor, Kimi. Stay out, stay out.0:2119:08SAISainzI see a bit of greening on my front right.0:0419:09GASGaslyThe other thing we need to put for next time is to review the safety car lap because it makes no sense. Yeah, we'll have a look why that's happening.0:10
