Abu Dhabi2019Race1 Dec 2019

13:23VERMate, the engine doesn't pull at low RPM, what is this? Standby.0:0913:27VERPitPitInfo Bottas, still P11, the gap is around 23 seconds to him.0:0613:37VERTyres are still okay for me. I just keep going. Understood, Max. You're doing a good job. Keep it going.0:1013:51VERYeah, we'll try as hard as we can to go now. Understood.0:0813:56VERPitPitBox and pit confirm please Max, box, pit confirm.0:0613:59VERMassive lag out of corners. Understood, standby. Something is not correct.0:0913:59VERPitPitEngine 11, position 8. Engine 11, position 8. I've got a massive handbrake impact as well. Understood, we're looking at it.0:1314:00VERHow come this suddenly is a problem? We're looking at it, Max. Just calm down for the moment, refocus.0:0914:03VERIt's still 34. Understood, I'll get back to you.0:0814:05VERIt's after the pit stop, something happened. I don't know what it is. Yeah, we may not be able to do too much at this stage. We're looking at it, Max, and we'll update you as and when. What I have now is the best compromise. Understood. Keep us posted.0:1714:06VERYeah, just help, please help me with my response of the engine because it's slowing me down.0:0914:09VERPitPitIt just feels like a massive drug hole in the beginning of my throttle map. Understood. There's nothing we can do about it, Max. There is nothing we can do about it at this stage. Okay, so you're gonna have to live with it. You're quick enough.0:1514:21VERThe engine braking is a bit inconsistent, but there is less lag on both Ferraris on a two -stop. I could hear it behind you.0:1614:31VERPitPitIt looks like there's a bit of a scrap between Hamilton and Bottas for purple laps. Bottas currently holds at 39 .7, Hamilton last lap 40 .0.0:1014:42VERPitPitObviously these guys are racing, Max, so just take care.0:0614:43VERMan, he stopped moving. He can't race the car ahead when I'm so close. Yep.0:1014:52VERPitPitMate, fail 84 please, fail 84 when you can, that's P2, P3 in the championship, fantastic mate, great job. Yeah, not bad guys, not bad, not a bad end result, good recovery, good strategy as well to go longer, so thank you very much. Anyway, thank you very much for the whole year, I think we had some really good moments. Yeah, well done Max, you've driven brilliantly all year, so building momentum and some great races this year. Finished off with a great drive today, well done.0:31

13:07VERPitPitOK, that put you P1 at this early stage, just a tenth ahead of Leclerc, we're a tenth, just over a tenth down in sector 1, the same as sector 2, you are three tenths faster in sector 3.0:1713:28VERPitPitLet's overwork these tyres.0:0313:33VERI have no rear grip, it's a big problem. OK, understood. Are you lacking front anyway? No, I need the front to turn the car, just the rear has no grip. OK, understood.0:1613:46VERWe have to check the front left suspension because turn 5 I hit that inside kerb.0:1214:04VERYeah, there was not much more in it. As soon as I want to push a bit more, I just lose the rear.0:05

10:23VERCan you uh, it says all the still car speed limiter, can I get that away? Yep, that'll be done.0:0810:28VERI don't think my dash is working, mate. It just says plus 999.0:0910:47VERPitPitThe track is clear behind Seb. I'm not sure what he's up to. Do not get pushed by him. If you need to go slower, manage your tyres, do so.0:0710:51VERPitPitOK, try to pick up the pace a little bit, Max. Yeah, I've got two cars in front of me, mate.0:0911:02VERPitPitWe do not require a bike point find, just two burnouts on the exit of turn 21, a right hand side grid launch in gear 1. Right hand side, gear 1. Two burnouts.0:12

13:21VERPitPitOk, so the laps look good Max, maybe just a little bit tidy enough at turns 8 and 11 -12.0:0614:00VERPitPitOn the exit of turn 9, can we have 4 seconds overtake? 4 seconds of the overtake.0:0614:03VERPitPitOK, Lewis first lap, 42 .5. You were at 42 .6.0:0714:10VERPitPitAnd I'll have a tyre update when you can, please.0:0814:23VERWe have other cabs on track, as soon as I slow down, he's slowing down, so it doesn't make a lot of sense.0:1114:27VERPitPitOK, we've got two more laps. We've got three seconds behind to Hülkenberg. Yeah, but when I slow down, he slows down. That's the problem.0:08

09:19VERPitPitSo you have some margin to stress the tyres a little bit on the outlet.0:0409:21VERPitPitOK, Alex second lap at 39 .9, Bottas second push lap at 37 .9. He was a tenth quicker on his second push.0:0909:25VERJust turn 8, out of the corner, the engine braking, it's not great.0:0609:30VERPitPitOK, so, deficits to Bottas, couple of tenths at turn 8 -9, which is where you've noted, tenth and a half at turn 14, and two tenths at turn 21.0:12

16:36VERPitPitOK, max, box and confirm, box, would you like a front wing adjustment? No, that's all good. OK, box. Very busy at pit lane entry, so take care.0:1317:05VERPitPitOK, run through the formation lap procedures, as we've just discussed, the gearbox is not synced, so please sync that as soon as you can, preferably by turn 4, otherwise pit limiter off, we do not need a pit lane speed limiter, a static 5 .5 once the car is fired up and on the ground, and then carry out your damage with launch to third gear, expect wheelspin as normal, and then mode 12 before turn 1. We've spoken about the formation lap pace, but concentrate on your procedures for rear tyre temperature, if you can, between first and second gears during the formation lap for clutch learning, and then as you come out of turn 12 and over the brow, from P24 on the grid, which is two rows after the chevron wall ends, we are looking for two burnouts and one ramp, two burnouts and one ramp, but as ever, perform the extra ramp, rather than just coast it down into your pit box.1:1117:27VERPitPitJust give us an update on the tyres when you can. Yeah, it's okay, I just picked up a bit of vibration on the left run somehow. Some bad, but a little bit. Understood.0:1417:35VERI wonder how long these tyres are going to go? OK, copy Max.0:1017:38VERPitPitBox, pit confirm Max, box, pit confirm.0:0717:41VERWhat the f*** did they do?0:0817:43VEROK, Alex, it needs to move now. He's aware, mate, he's aware, great stuff. Has a fantastic out lap, Max. Gap is at 1 .8, Max, 1 .8. Mode 7, please, Max, mode 7. So ahead will be Bottas, gap at 3 .2, yet to pit.0:3717:44VERPitPitOK, you'll have boost available when you need it, and the overtake.0:0617:44VERPitPitWe're expecting Bottas to stay out.0:0617:51VERPitPitGap is at 2 .5, 2 .5.0:0518:02VERI think the wind is picking up. Both Mercedes cars complain of similar issues actually, Max.0:1018:02VERAudio only18:06VERPitPitBoost on.0:0418:08VERPitPitYou did a very good job on that last then. Same again please.0:0718:09VERPitPitOK, so that's 27 laps to the end, Max, 27 laps. You did a very good job on that last in. Same again, please.0:1218:12VERPitPitLast lap, Hamilton, 11 .3, gap at 1 .8.0:0618:14VERPitPitJust continue to monitor the right rear peak temperature, Max.0:0518:18VERLewis didn't slow down enough, man. Yeah, I saw that, Max.0:0818:28VERPitPitCome on mate, you've done this once, already on the same compound.0:0718:29VERPitPitJust watch you don't pass before the line.0:0518:33VERAudio only18:33VERAudio only18:34VERPitPitYou are the man, mate. Come on. Fantastic. Let's pull away.0:0718:35VERPitPitEngine 12, position 1. Engine 12, position 1. Gap 3 .3.0:0918:38VERNow there's a lot of debris everywhere. Understood.0:0718:40VERPitPitSo just focus on keeping temperature in the front, the rears are still over optimum temperature.0:0818:45VERPitPitThe car behind is Gasly. Final lap Max, final lap, bring it home. Are they out? They're at the back.0:1018:47VERPitPitThat's the race win. That is the race win. You absolutely bossed it. Magic today. Absolutely bossed it. Fantastic. We did it as a team, guys. Unbelievable. What a race. Oh, I loved it. Redemption, Max. Absolute redemption from last year. Brilliant race. Brilliant race. Exactly. And I think the way we fought for it made it even better. Thank you, guys. Great day.0:2718:52VERPitPitSpare a thought for Alex, I think he was harshly knocked out at turn 10 there by Lewis, otherwise he was on for his first podium. Yeah that was a shame, we could have been both on the podium here. Mate honestly that outlap after the first stop, proper racing, fantastic. Yeah we had to.0:18

Brazilian2019Qualifying16 Nov 2019

18:54VERPitPitNot a great lap, still put your P1. Yeah, it was a big f*** up.0:0818:54VERWe have to check the front wing, I think, on the right front. OK, we'll have a look. Thoughts about balance? That's fine. Just leave it like this. Understood.0:1419:01VERPitPitThat's it mate. You've done it. Every session. Yes boys, that was really good, really good. The car was on fire. And I hope that was a nice birthday present, Christian. That was the best birthday present you could have given me, well done. Brilliant, all three sessions. So yeah, thank you very much for that. No worries.0:2719:06VERWell done GP, well done here as well, good job mate, whole team, also I think that was good, really good. Yep, absolutely bang on mate, great stuff.0:13

Brazilian2019Practice 316 Nov 2019

15:03VERPitPitOK, during the pit lane please, in pit lane, just stay within the white lines, do not shortcut the pit lane entry for the moment, thank you. When you stop on the marks we'll have a pre -start rev check before you switch off, so mode 3 and recharge off for that.0:1715:25VERPitPitI'll put you P1. Two tenths clear of Hamilton at this stage.0:0515:25VERYeah, a lot of understeer. Copy.0:0615:52VERPitPitOK, cool the tyres Max, cool the tyres. OK, that's P2, a couple of hundredths behind Lewis, you have purple sector 1, 2 tenths down with sector 2, and similar final sector.0:1315:54VERUm, losing a bit of time on the back straight, the last one. Yep, we see that, it's just a KD rate. Engine 5, position 2 please, engine 5, position 2.0:13

Brazilian2019Practice 215 Nov 2019

18:32VERPitPitHulkenberg two and a half. Yeah, it's drizzling a bit. OK, well let's just collect some data for the moment. No, it's quite slippery mate. Alright, more box. Let's just give it one lap, see what happens. OK, understood, stay out. But tyres are cold mate, tyres are cold, so do not push, just continue to try to generate some temperature.0:2318:34VEREngine braking is not good.0:0618:52VERPitPitYeah, P3, 10 to power 1, better than Leclerc. Purple, sector 2.0:0619:07VERCopy, yeah, please look at this engine braking, it's again happening now. Copy, standby.0:1119:08VERPitPitEngine 14, position 1. Engine 14, position 1. I'll have feedback on the engine braking.0:10
