02:54:50
Yep, all good on switches.
02:56:20
Yeah, understood.
02:57:54
Understood. Would that be soft?
03:00:41
OK, good work on tyres on brakes, please.
03:00:49
Okay, the leaders look like they're pushing quite hard in that first sector.
03:02:04
Alright, you can keep pushing on those tyres on good high-speed weaving. You can look at the dash while you're here.
03:02:11
And you can move to offset minus one now. We need an adjustment here as well.
03:02:31
OK, so for lap 1, reminder on the push to go. And then I will call you for mode 7 in the last sector.
03:02:51
OK, three tyre warming confirmed. First gear, click of attack, three tyre warming.
03:03:08
Brakes are good, good job. First gear, click of a tick, three tyre warming, on mode 3 as soon as you can.
03:04:05
OK, last couple of minutes.
03:05:39
Mode 7. Offset 0.
03:07:26
OK, Hulkenberg is 9 tenths behind ahead of you, Russell on soft.
03:07:51
Consider meet at 7, one step up. Now we have Stroll behind.
03:08:16
OK, there's still a lot going on up front. Head down.
03:08:48
Keep an eye on your mirrors for Stroll. Make sure we keep the DRS.
03:09:07
And at the moment we have no clips in turn 14.
03:10:49
OK, so we have Stroll directly behind, on ahead of you Bottas, with a bit more rear wing. On heads up, Bottas has got more clips than us.
03:12:31
Strat 2 for performance. Strat 2 and consider back to mid 6. So, Zhou in P9 is 5 ahead. We have a bit of a train forming behind Magnussen.
03:14:13
The only place Bottas is gaining is turn 8-9, braking entry. Yeah, I have a lot of front limitation in turn 9. I might try a full toggle there.
03:14:30
Copy that. Bottas is about to lose DRS just about a tenth away from losing DRS. Keep your head down.
03:14:39
Yep, I feel I would have a bit more pace to clear out. Copy that. No more anti-deploy. We don't need it.
03:15:37
And when you have a good exit turn 13, you can press and hold 5 seconds to try something.
03:16:22
Consider entry 7 once the turn. We have a bit more understeer now.
03:16:47
Gear up front, definitely the limitation. Copy, keep hitting all switches.
03:17:45
And remember, put the goal available if you need 789.
03:18:30
OK, so he's back four seconds ahead of you now in P9.
03:19:22
Lance Stroll is 1.2 behind.
03:19:48
10 more laps. 10 more laps. Let's keep putting the pressure on.
03:20:13
OK, Zhou is still dropping. He's now 3.5 ahead of you.
03:21:05
Okay, it's very, very close again for Bottas to do the DRS. And reminder on the pull to goal available in the middle of the track.
03:21:56
Consider back to mid 6. We have a bit more oversteer now.
03:22:46
OK, Daniel, would you like a bit more traction, speed, on the bit of clips? We can do some changes with energy management. Yeah, let's try. Copy. Stand by.
03:23:12
Engine 8, position 12, when you can. Engine 8, position 12, not urgent.
03:23:38
And consider one click forward with the offset for stability.
03:24:29
Yeah, I just lose too much of the thing. That's where we struggle a lot. We can use a push toggle in turn 6 due to the tailwind.
03:24:55
OK, push to go to turn 6 for the tailwind and please repeat the message. Yep, you have to struggle with the rear of the engine.
03:25:21
OK, let's try back to EB8 to give a bit of a breeze to the rear tyres. EB8.
03:25:34
But the front is still the bigger issue. OK, I'll leave it to you, mate.
03:26:15
And consider a very small lift off braking turn 11 to help rear tyres for turn 13. Understood.
03:28:59
On to the next one. Overtake available.
03:29:38
Currently P12. Four more laps after this one. Bottas 1.5 behind.
03:31:22
Strat 1. Back to Strat 1. Three more laps. Clean laps. We'll get him.
03:32:13
Consider entry 8, currently P11.
03:33:05
No more anti-deploy. Battery is full. Magnussen 1.1.
03:35:53
You can press and hold the complete back straight.
03:37:20
Okay, yeah, quite a bit to take from that, so yeah, some good info I guess.
03:37:33
Yeah, it's a shame about Magnussen and Zhou. I think we are the pace. We'll see for Sunday.
03:37:43
Yep. Yeah, all good. I'm not concerned.
03:38:02
And Zhou finished in P9, so no midfield cars in top 8. We've got Max Hamilton-Perez top 3. I guess we have the ball in turn 13.
03:39:11
OK, when we stop the car in the pitlane, it will be P1. Wait for the dash message on P0, please.
03:39:27
Yep, understood.
03:39:36
Yeah, so, obviously, I get your comments at the rear, but the front was still on the edge of just being opened up, I felt, so I just had to try to protect that more. Okay, copy that. Obviously, traction remains clearly a limitation, so we'll keep having a think what tools we have in the box.
03:40:01
Yeah, for me that's, I think we know the main reason. That feels quite clear, at least against the others.
03:40:15
Copied, thank you. And reminder for P0.
