On track is obviously clear. We have Sainz ahead, Stroll behind.

Understeer.

Fail 1. Fail. Fail 2. Fail when you want.

We have Red Bull, Mercedes, Aston and Medium. The rest is hard.

Understeer.

We can do two laps with mode 4.

OK, port charge off. No-one pushing behind. On we go for two laps in a row.

Piastri, 31.5 on heart. On the speed limit, probably with switches. If we need to add stability, close diff entry, diff mid.

OK, watch mirror for Zhou. We have a double Newton 16. Leclerc has stopped. Not sure what's happened. OK, he's moving. Watch your mirrors for Zhou. Pushing.

Zou coming now. And then we have Bottas 4 behind pushing.

OK, Sargeant pushing 5 behind.

Mode 1 in the background, please.

OK, Sargeant coming now, pushing. We have a lot of cars stuck in turn 13. Leclerc is in the middle there. Take your time where you are. Leclerc is in the middle of the track, between the walls. He's trying to reverse. OK. Next car behind is a long way away, 27. How was the flap for this lap? Happy to go with the flow? Track should come towards us.

Yep, yeah, let's just go with the flow. See how the track evolves and I'll obviously keep finding it. Copy. Heads up with turn 16, Leclerc. He's still trying to turn his car around. Double yellow there.

Other cars had to come to a stop. Let's see if you have a gap to go.

Okay, so the cars behind you will have to abort their time-lapse, so we are phased now.

Shape for less migration for the next lap.

So we try to start the next lap and then we see if we have a green. Let's try to have a good braking in that corner and then we wait. Pick up some speed now, please.

Red flag. Box, box.

Yep. Understood.

OK, pitlane. Do you think we should remove a bit of flap? Or do you think we have enough now? The track will be better.

I think it will be okay. Yeah, we think as well. So I'll let Patrick show you the compare, a few things we can look at.

Yeah, understood. Yeah, obviously my eye is to the track, but yeah, happy to have a look.

Enough gap to go. Yeah, I couldn't see. So now we have to wait.

Is it better to come back to garage? Negative.

And let's do some weaving, please. We have margin on the left now.

We have a good gap to the car ahead and behind you is Zhou. First car pushing is in turn 1.

Okay, good braking, turn 11.

OK, high-speed weaving and then track temp is quite high. We should be OK. Keep the position. Two cars to go.

Catch up. Catch up.

OK, Daniel, we go for a big cool-down. We should be faced with everyone now. Single cool-down for now. So, your lap time is 31.6. Yuki, 32.4. We are three tenths behind sector 1. It's mostly in the high speed, turn 4, 5, 6.

On the middle sector, it's 1.10, turn 13.14, braking minimum speed.

Next car pushing his max is 20 behind.

Let's go. Next stop, IP10.

OK, a bit of braking, turn 11.

And we need a good braking. We can do twice before the last corner, please. Max pushing 9 behind. We have four cars ahead on cool-down.

Max 5 behind pushing.

And Yuki managed to find another tenth and a half sector one. He's going for a second lap. Max 2.5 pushing.

Ok, the next one will be Albon 6. Let's do a good braking and then we will let him by.

Albon 3. Albon 2.5. Albon now.

OK, Daniel. Magnussen, 6 pushing.

Pushing. Magnussen 3, charge off.

You can go slower, sector 1 high speed in your cooldown. We were too fast, sector 1 high speed in your cooldown.

Cars behind on cool-down. OK, watch for Magnussen, not sure, he's behind you, but should be cool-down. Offset forward.

Engine 8, position 4.

Next car pushing Sargeant is 9 behind.

And we lost one tenth on the launch because of the traffic and two tenths in the high speed this lap.

Next place was straight line braking turn 11. Two tenths just in that braking turn 11. Sargeant pushing, two behind.

And do you want to close this straight for a second?

No, it's okay. As the lap goes on, I get quite a bit of understeer on the front right. You can use octographs if you need something across sectors. Next lap, wishing Sainz his six.

So we can use the pull toggle last corner for that apex understeer. Sainz pushing 3.5.

Sainz pushing straight.

Sainz 1 coming now. OK, next one is Albon on a fast start lap.

We need a good braking last corner. Let's try to make sure we are good on traffic last corner. Next car pushing is Yuki. 7 behind. Let's make sure we get a good braking last corner. Yuki 6 behind. Only Yuki pushing behind.

Is there a gap behind Yuki? Yes.

Stay ahead of Albon. Albon is outlapped behind Yuki. Ok, you can take that gap now. You're good. Offset zero. Charge off.

Reminder, offset 0.

OK, Daniel, your time is at 30.7, Yuki's is at 30.5.

We're still happy with a slow single cooldown. Have to stay out and we move to sustainable afterwards or we take a bit of time in the garage.

Albon pushing 5. So we go for one more push-up and then we move to sustainable. Albon 3 pushing.

Albon 2 pushing. Coming now. OK, next one is Perez 11.

So it was one tenth straight line braking turn 11 for the middle sector.

On turn 5, 6, high speed, one tenth. Perez 4 behind pushing. And Zhou is behind. It's ok. Let them by.

OK, next is Zou pushing 5 and then Sainz pushing 10 and then Sainz pushing Zou 2.5, Zou 2.5.

And Sainz is 6th pushing and then Max is 11th.

Sainz 2.5, pushing.

Sainz, two behind you, pushing on maxi 7.

We will need some full throttle in the back straight for the battery. Max 3 behind, pushing. And then we have a 13 seconds gap to Magnussen, next car.

OK, good braking last corner. We're good to go.

Ciao, ciao, flaskane!

OK, Q1. OK, for the attempt, then we move to sustainable. Sure.

OK, we have Magnussen, 6 behind, long run.

On Daniel, what about shape 5 for the middle sector low speed? 4B. Yep, let's try that. Copy. Ocon pushing 4 and then Sargeant sustainable 7. So, Ocon 3 and then if we can keep that gap, it's ideal. Ocon 2.5. Ocon 2.5. Ok, Sargeant is opening, he's now 6 behind. Ok, Sargeant is opening, keep that position. Reminder, shape 5 for turn 11 to 16 and then back to shape 4. Ok, open the gap to Ocon. Ok, open the gap to Ocon. Ocon is 4.

OK, you can overtake Hamilton if you want. Straight into the run, please.

Let's go mode 4 for kerbflops.

Mode 6, straight 10.

Offset 20 kW.

Consider shape 5 test. Middle sector.

Back to shape 4 and Hamilton ahead is on higher fuel.

Cut 3.

And if shape 5 was positive, you can do that again. I'll leave it to you now. We can close at mid 7.

Engine 11. Position 3. Torqued.

Strat 1. Strat 1 one more time.

Consider push to goal for the middle sector.

OK, Daniel, drop the pace. Let's box through the pitlane for practice for pitbox. Through the pitlane now.

Multibit 8, torque 8. Box, box, through the pitlane. Mode 12.

No tyre whamming. Zero tyre whamming. Box, box through the pitlane and follow the traffic light, please.

Correction, one time tyre warming before you stop, please.

First gear, click of a tick.

OK, you stop in the pit box and wait for the traffic like this. Mode 3. You keep the pit limiter.

Track is clear.

Paul, would you like a...?

Charge on, mode 1, box, box.

We have Russell sustainable 6 behind. Only can keep up the pace or win. We don't need this tyre again.

I have understeer.

Box, box, box, box, stop on the mark and switch off.

Stop on the mark. On switch.

OK, that's a good position. We plug the car, we listen to your feedback and then we have a look at flaps for next compound. And for info, Albon has gone for a soft.

But big picture, I think we're not in a bad place. We're looking for attempts in high speed, but we had traffic in a number of laps, so it wasn't easy. And it's one tenth braking turn 11. Sector 3 is consistently strong.

I don't have any... OK, Sargeant, 30.1 on medium.

On Bottas, 30.0 on soft. Track is clear. Easy on the outlap. Stay negative.

We have Zhou on a very slow cool-down ahead. He's at 6 ahead. He will let you by.

No one pushing behind at the moment. Position is very good. We have Hamilton on the faster outlap. He is 4 behind.

So, Zou forward on a very slow cool-down. And remember, we need to be negative at the line and work on brakes.

Ok, position is still very very good. Ahead of you is Yuki 6.

Albon did a 29.5 on soft.

And make sure we get good braking last corner. A bit of speed in the last corner. Offset zero. Offset zero.

Shape 5 in the middle sector. Pull to the last corner.

Okay, keep the position, charge your flasks on.

OK, double cooldown. We have to stay negative at the line, please. It's a good practice for the next session. It will be negative at the line. No one pushing behind. So Yuki did a 29.17, your lap time 29.5.

And the biggest difference was turn 14.15, two tenths.

Yep, I still have quite a lot of front limitation in the longer corners, same as the hard. On braking, straight line braking last corner.

Okay, we have one car pushing, Sargeant. Only car, 8 miles.

OK, Sargeant coming behind you now. Pushing.

Sergeant, behind you now pushing. We go for double cool down.

Okay, no one else pushing. We try to stay negative. Thank you.

OK, we are still good on position. Next lap we do a bit more on the brakes. Last sector. What about push to goal middle sector for the next lap?

Ah, yep.

Engine in position 4. Alonso pushing 7 behind.

Alonso pushing four behind. So we are currently P12. Most others have gone to the soft. On Yuki with a 29.2 is in P5. Alonso coming now. Then Russell out lap.

OK, Daniel, no one behind pushing, so you do what you need for track position on tyres now.

Good braking last corner. Brakes are very cold now. OK, Sainz opening the gap behind you. 5 behind. Everyone out lap. More cold now. One more time. OK, open a good gap to Russell.

Ship 4. Back to ship 4.

Parked to shift 4. Consider pull to goal last corner.

OK, watch your mirrors for Hulkenberg. Starting at Tamlin. Hulkenberg braking, turn 1. Pushing.

Hulkenberg pushing, coming now. Behind Hamilton.

Okay Daniel, we will stay out to take the flag on the practice start.

Offset forward to keep the brakes up in that slow lap.

Okay, no one's pushing behind. I think we will take the flag guaranteed this lap.

Strat 11, mode 12.

Do you still want to recharge on? Or are you happy with mode 12? You can go to recharge off, now we have mode 12.

On reminder, once we take the flag, we stay out and then we'll do our procedure. Exit turn 16.

OK, Daniel, this was a good lap. Shame about the last corner. We lost a little bit there. But that was a good effort. And we had a clean traffic lap as well. Sector 1 was a little bit difficult before.

I think it was good to get that second lap.

OK, Daniel, previous start, we did three shallow. This start, we want one shallow. And you were on target. We just want to adjust the target for this tyre. So one shallow, please.

Okay. 16, it will be first gear. 16, it will be first gear. Click over.

2 tyre warming. And then, when you go back up to speed, anti-deploy please.

So it's just the middle sector, we need to see how we can help. If something is a bit different, we'll see if that's one of the reasons. We're in an OK place. What a fool!

Ok, we have a big gap behind you. Big gap behind.

B-Bal offset plus one.

We need a bit of braking turn 11, please. Same as you would do on a formation lap. Brakes are dead cold now. Ok, first gear, click of attack.

OK, click anti-deploy, complete braking turn 11. Anti-deploy, complete braking turn 11. Multi B8, torque 8. Multi B8, torque 8, please.

Single tyre warming.

Start from the left-hand side, please. Left-hand side. As far forward as you can.

Left-hand side as far forward as you can.

Multi-speed motor starts.

Stay in mode 3 and keep up the pace.

OK for charge and box.

Our battery will be full in case we get a pit entry test. But we keep the car ready.

Box, box, static, stop.

Static mid-stop. Hold the brakes and switch off.

Very cool.

So, was it the Williams or the rear left mechanic? No, it was this scrutineer guy. Ah, scrutineer, ok. But he's right in the way. Someone can see him, right, and tell him to fuck off. Copy. We will report it.

You know, even if it's one of our guys, just push him away.

OK, Daniel, we plug the car and we have a chat about main limitations.
