Radio check. Yep, that's loud enough.

OK, that's a radio check from the pit wall.

You're all loud and clear, so it's just under 5.5 minutes to start the formation lap.

Okay, so tyres are in now. It's a pretty easy one. Everyone is on the medium except yourself, up until P16, 17, so everyone's on the medium around you. You've just got Magnussen on the new hard in P17 and then the three in the back on new soft, including Hamilton.

And that's now two minutes to go. Two minutes to go.

Canons, that's 20 seconds.

And that's 10.

So, try to make a space before turn 1 if you can. We'll have to lean on tyres on the way into turn 1.

No transcript available

Let's go steady through turn 2 and 3. So way on out, nice and steady. Make a bit of space if you'd like to push on the way out of turn 3.

No transcript available

So, pushing now. Bit of high-speed weaving if you can.

And again, let's go steady where you are now. Slow through 6, try and build a bit of a gap and we want to push a bit of high speed weaving into 7 and then pushing all the way through 7 and 8.

We'll do a high-speed weaving into 11, then a big stop.

OK, steady where you are now. Build a bit of a gap again and we want to lean on the tyres all the way out of turn 12-13. High speed weaving down to turn 14 as well.

OK, and start was plus three. Plus three.

So a big lift into 14 and then a stop. Happy to lean on tyres through 14 as well where you can.

Brakes are good, Lance. Don't need any more on the brakes. Stay on the racing line now. I'll let you know on burnouts.

So I have to do five burnouts, lads. Five burnouts. Remember to use the K0. Press and hold K0. We do longer burnouts.

And just remember, run, switch, race.

I'm going to use early overtake now, early energy.

Okay, good job. So DRS will be available this lap into turn 14.

Reminder, DRS is now active.

You can use energy if you need.

OK, Lance, awesome job. Just remember what this means for your tyre management now.

Turn 7 management was good that lap. Let's repeat it.

OK, let's all take some balance feedback when you've got it. Balance feedback.

Yeah, it's not great in the rear. Copy. Pit road management turn 7 now, if you can. Pit road management turn 7.

So if there is any understeer, Lance, we recommend mid-4. For any understeer, you do have mid-corner.

Turn 7 was good that lap. Hulkenberg is dropping away. So this is good. His tyres are really digging up the rear.

So we need some more lift and coasting. Let's do some lift and coasting to turn 6, turn 6 and turn 14.

So, Lance, everyone behind at the minute is slower, so I know it feels like Heidegg, but they are slow behind. You are still making a gap. This is good.

Car behind is now Bottas.

Turn against the right.

OK, pace is still good. We can compromise 11 more for 12.

OK, let's start pushing this tyre more, Lance. Start taking more of this tyre now. Type 2. Type 2 upshifts are very bad. Is there anything you can give me on the MFA?

OK, lads. Box. Box. Box this lap.

So, tyre green, dry R, tyre green, dry R.

Stay, stay, stay.

We've got Hulkenberg pit exit. He's on a new hard. Hulkenberg pit exit. Rating him.

Is there anything for the Type 2 upshifts? We think it comes from short shifting, Lance, so just watch the shift lights. I think you're short shifting and that's causing the upshifts.

OK, so you might see Russell pit exit. Racing him. He's just stopped on new medium.

OK, so we're happy with what you're doing with tyres currently. This is good. Just keep going as you are.

HPP on.

So the group ahead is being held up by Magnussen. He's on a new hard from the start of the race. They're quite a lot slower. You'll catch them up soon.

Okay, good job Lance. It's still nice and clear behind. That's Russell ahead on new medium. You are currently on lap 15. Currently lap 15.

OK, Lance, I'll take some tyre and balance feedback when you can. Yeah, I have some understeer at the low speed, but very poor traction. Generally balance not too bad, I'm just grip limited with the rear in general, like on traction.

So Piastri's just stopped onto a medium tyre. He'll come out behind us.

Let's not waste too much time with Piastri, but let's not make it too easy for him.

That's now Sainz car behind. He's on a new hard.

Okay, Lance, so big picture, our deck actually looks quite good on this tyre. We're pulling away from the cars we need to pull away from, so we are leaning towards plan B currently. You are now on lap 19, okay? You're currently lap 19.

So, Sainz is behind. Is he currently yellow at 11? Stand by.

It's currently 11. It's yellow at turn 11. Bottas has stopped.

Haha, that was funny.

It's currently yellow in turn 11. We've got Bottas' car stopped.

That's a VSC, VSC, so delta positive, front switch safety car.

Safety car window is open. OK, let me know what we're doing, huh? Yeah, what do you think about balance, Lance? Yeah, it's quite OK. It's just general dig. Agreed. So make sure your delta is close to the safety car line.

So that will be boxing this lap.

So, Stanley Delta to the SC1 line. Make sure you're closer than push-pin entry.

You'll be blending on the exit.

Okay, so maybe you can push to the safety car line, then get back on the delta. Run switch safety car, run switch safety car.

So, yeah, so run switch is good. Just keep your delta positive.

So, Tsunoda is 13 lap old. Medium. Tsunoda 13 lap old, medium.

It's a double yellow Delta in 11. Delta might change that. Very positive.

So you can do some weaving. You can do some high-speed weaving when you can. Then you can reset torque to torque 10.

Let's get MFA white, shift 7. MFA white, shift 7. That should help with some of the upshifts.

Lance, we're struggling for a front left brake temperature, so let's just get some big stops if you can. We need to start waking that up now. So, big stops.

So that's a safety car now, that's a safety car.

So, for now, for you Lancers, just get this brake left, front left brake, just work it back up. So, straight line braking where you can.

So, just make sure you close the L50. So, just make sure you stop at the L50. If you can, stay out. Make sure you close the L50. Stay out. Make sure you close the L50.

So Ricciardo ahead is nine laps medium to turn 5. Nine laps medium to Ricciardo ahead.

Just watch your delta, man. Just watch your delta.

So just make sure you watch the delta in this sector if it's double yellow.

Let's just get torque 10. We recommend torque 10.

No, that's not what I feel. OK, that's all right. Just keep focusing on brake temp as well for brake temp.

So that's twice past SC1, so we can push now, push now for those who are stopping. So let's push now. You can ignore the delta.

So, twice past SC1, so you can just ignore the delta now to stay close to the cars ahead. Still just watching that front left brake temp. It is coming back. Keep working on it.

So, unfortunately, it's still double yellow, I think, in this sector. So, just keep an eye on it.

We're happy with rear tyre temps, it's just the front if anything. Let's just run switch out 2 for now, out 2. Safety car will be in this lap, so let's just get some brake temp.

So we'll get a big stop in 11 and then it's front switch race. We'll go, safety car will be in this lap. So Ricciardo ahead is 11 lap medium. Hulkenberg behind is two lap hard.

Just a reminder, Lance, it's no overtaking until the control line.

ZDF just slammed on the brake. Check wing damage.

Replace the wing.

Thanks for watching!

OK, so safety car, safety car, so run through the safety car, be positive. The leaders are coming round, they're just in turn 16, so we're still ahead of them.

So, delta positive.

You need to be positive on the delta. Safety car is for Tsunoda. Stopped around turn 6-7.

Wait to be waved past. Just stay behind the safety car for now. When it lets you by, you can go right.

Okay, so just get back on the delta but don't go negative. You need to stay positive.

I don't understand. I can't push to catch the pack? No, not yet. Not yet. It'll be the end of this lap. So for now, just stay positive. It's alright. We'll have a good chance of getting them back.

Stay positive, Lance, for now.

So, it looks like a double yellow in 15 for info. Double yellow in 15, so it's still positive to the delta. Just watch it in turn 15 as well. Turn 15, 16, it might go. It will change if you need it to stay positive again.

Stay positive, stay positive. Now we pass Nessie on twice, so we can push now, Lance. Let's

Please run switch race. Run switch race.

Lance is still double yellow at turn 15.16. So the delta will change again. We need to be positive there. Just look out for it. So just where you are now, just make sure you're positive.

OK, and I can push again. That's good.

Back of the pack is currently at turn 10.

Safety car is staying out for now, so we will catch the pack. The back of the pack is in 14 now, so we will catch them. You can ease off slightly, just make sure we don't take too much out of the tyre.

OK, that's a run-switch safety car. Run-switch safety car. That's just to charge the pack slightly. Safety car will be in this lap.

So, tyres are good, temperature's good after all that pushing. You are now on lap 31.

So you can do run-switch-race now. Run-switch-race. Safety car in this lap.

Use early exit, early overtake at turn 12.

So, Ricciardo ahead has issues. He might be retiring. He's slowing down ahead of you.

Okay, Lance, so we've been given a 10-second penalty for the incident under the safety car. We'd like to box this lap and serve it. So box this lap. It'll be a 10-second penalty. Unbelievable, Matt. It's such a joke.

OK, so this is a hard tyre. We can push this. We'll try and drag some people in later, OK? So it's clear for exit. Let's crack on.

OK, lads, that's 17 laps to go.

Lancia are happy with management, this is all good. We're basically waiting for the cars ahead to start dropping into our pit window.

So Zhou stopped ahead of you. That is a new soft tyre on that car.

Okay, that's 15 to go. 15 to go.

That's 13 to go, 13 to go. Still happy with what you're doing on the tyres.

OK, that's 12 laps to go. 12 to go. You can consider yellow button for turn 8-9.

Okay, that's a big picture. There's a group of cars around 20 seconds ahead. They're all on quite old hard tyres, so it just depends how much they fall off at the end. We are expected to see them at the end of the race, but that's what we're looking at at the minute.

OK, and that's 10 laps to go.

OK, that's eight to go. Eight laps to go.

OK, Lance, that's 7 to go, 7 to go. Sargeant's car ahead. He is struggling. He's doing 1.43 at the minute, so expect we'll get him towards the end of the race.

So you can see Sargeant ahead. We've also got Magnussen has a 10 second penalty and he's currently 14 seconds ahead. So if we can keep pushing a lot towards that group, that's going to help.

That's now five. Five to go.

Okay, that's four to go, four laps to go.

OK, and that's 3 to go. 3 to go. Gap to Magnussen is under 10, so that's good. Well done. Thank you.

OK, Lance, two laps to go. Strat 9. Strat 9.

OK, and final lap. Final lap.

OK, nice to check a flag. Unlucky there, mate. That was going really well to start with. First two stints were going good until that safety car. So for info, that was a big concertina. Caught a few out. I think it was maybe Sainz just calling that down the front somewhere.

Yeah. So ridiculous, man. Just the whole train in front of me just stopped. Twice! Even down the main street there was like someone that braked. Then again in the hairpin. Yeah, no, we saw it. So it definitely wasn't just you. It was kind of chaos, wasn't it? Yeah. Not very good driving there for them, but... First couple of stints really good. That was an awesome first lap as well. Some good moves in 6th. I think you deserve more for that.

OK, let's do this. Run switch race, please. Run switch race.

OK, let's just need some switches now, please, if that's OK. So, HPP off, HPP off, MFB, PU1 to position 12, MFB, PU1, position 12, and then strat 14.

MFB PE1 position 12. Strat 14.

OK, switches are good, folks.

For info, classified, I think it would be P15 as well, Lance, P15.

OK, that's just a P0 reminder when you've stopped as well.
