Radio check. Yes, low and clear. Yep, likewise. OK, so Magnussen in the lead car on the 1-17.

Tug on the dash, plus five. Display nine. Display nine.

Magnussen just through 19 opening his lap. Coming past.

There's a long side.

Ocon at 10 seconds.

So still need sync in 8th gear. Sync 8th gear. Ocon seven seconds back.

Radio check. Likewise. Sync is good.

Just need to use third gear. Third gear.

Ocon still five and a half seconds back.

So, Ocon at 3.5 seconds, 2, 1. Piastri at 7 seconds, 5, 4, 3, 1.5, coming through. Next car, Gasly, 5 seconds, 4, 3.

Recharge on.

So, initial pace max of 31.0, Hamilton 31.1, yourself 31.3.

There's no immediate threats behind, just cool the tyres and cancel handbrake, cancel handbrake.

Handbrake failed. A little bit aggressive at the apex into the final corner.

OK, recommendation would be B-Bal 2. No handbrake and just use B-Bal 2 for the last corner. No threats behind. First car, Ocon, 21 seconds back.

Main losses are in sector 1. We're on the money in sector 2, purple sector 3. We're 9 tenths off Hamilton in sector 1, 3 tenths off Max.

So, Ocon at two seconds pushing, one and a half, one, coming through.

We'll go strat 7, strat 7.

So next car is Piastri. Four seconds. They are yellow. Yellow's hit. They're all yellow.

So Leclerc does look to be getting going. Expecting it to be clear next time. So make sure we've got the gap to the cars in front.

Two cars to go in front.

Burned by a Scouter Hulk.

Retarge off when you're ready.

Still got the double yellows at turn 14 onwards. Red flag. B-charge on. B-charge on.

Delta positive. Box at the end of this lap.

OK, so Leclerc still stopped on track ahead.

Okay, so box, there'll be a practice pit stop and switch off.

So it's 15 seconds.

Your car 4.

Some people might have gone up onto high fuel now. No assumptions about what anyone else is doing. Make sure we've got a nice gap.

So Sargeant, most of the time 17 now.

Tsunoda halfway to 17.

Two cars to go.

Just that looks.

VTOL drop. When you're ready.

Hey, be careful.

So I'm happy to get on with the programme now. Anything to learn from your side? The track is very shit at the moment. What do you think?

Yeah, if we go for another push up now, that would probably cancel the third run. Got max at high fuel behind one and a half seconds, so let him through.

Is there anything for you to learn going again? No. We get on with the program. Yeah, copy.

Sector 2 was quite neutral. It was better 1st and 13th, but generally speaking, it was quite neutral later on.

Let's have a look why.

OK, so we'll box, there'll be a practice pitstop and switch off. We'll go strat 8, strat 8 and I want recharge off at turn 17. Recharge off, attack the pit entry, attack the box.

Straight into it. Albon's opening a lap now.

And Fernando just closing a lap.

Fernando, just behind you, closing lap.

Initial lap times for Max, 32.9, 32.8.

Press and hold overtake for five seconds. Press and hold overtake.

I keep getting the DRS off. Display 12. Display 12.

So display 12. I see display 14 at the moment.

Strat 2. Strat 2.

Main losses to Max are under braking and mid-corner turn 11.

And Max managing more, turn 4. Recovering at that time, turn 7-8.

Just cap these peak pressures. Turn 1, turn 11, turn 17. Cap peak pressure.

Mode 9. Mode 9.

How many laps left? Two more laps after this.

I will open a gap. What is Sainz doing? I feel... No, he's fast, though, fast.

Might have gone into some sustainable now, but shouldn't have done. Got Russell at one and a half seconds back. Yeah, he shouldn't have backed into you there. We'll go mode 6 and strat 1. Mode 6 and strat 1.

Signs looks to be sustainable now.

One more push lap.

Strat 8. Strat 8.

Recharge on. Recharge on. Keep up the pace and we'll box at the end of this lap.

So box, practice pitstop and switch off.

Display 9. Display 9.

So, we've got Ocon just opening a lap. Let him through. He's up four seconds. Two.

No immediate threats behind.

Signs on the charge lap here.

So you steer less.

Gasly in front on a second charge lap. He'll be going for the next push lap.

First car pushing is Bottas, eight seconds back.

Tyre 8. Tyre 8.

Bottas, five seconds.

Bottas, four seconds.

Bottas at 3, 2, 1. Coming through. Make sure we've got the gap to Gasly. Expect him to go this next push lap. Hulkenberg six seconds back pushing. He's the only car on the lap behind. Now five seconds.

Recharge off when you're ready.

OK, recharge on.

And we'll pit at the end of this lap. Cancel handbrake.

Copy. There's no traffic. No traffic.

Sir, just easy on these tyres.

Yeah, quite bad. The sharpness. And then understeering to 8.

Zou Guanyu, let's not chase it with the flap.

Yep. We'll have a look at things going into SQ.

OK, so just an update on the session. We're P1, 3.5 tenths off in sector 1, but purple sector 2, 500ths off in sector 3.

Max aborted his first push lap just going again. He's on the money in sector 1.

So box, there'll be a live pitstop and then back out on track.

It's a couple of guys just completing laps.

Fernando at high fuel in turn 1, be alongside. I've got Magnussen at two seconds, might be pushing here. One, coming through. In phase with Russell behind.

Next car pushing, Hulkenberg, six seconds.

Hulkenberg at four seconds, pushing.

Two. One.

OK, no threat. Fail 10 fail. Fail 1-0 fail.

Now we go to mode 12. Mode 12. And recharge off.

Okay, so we'll take the chequered flag and then back round for our grid stop. Maximum speed to 28.5. Lots of people improving second push laps. We're P6 at the moment in the session.

Copy. Copy. Torque 3. Say the chequered flag. Torque 3. Say the chequered flag and then back round for the practice start.

Mode 12.

What did you want, the tyres?

Plus 10 on the rear axle, plus 10.

OK, so two burnouts, two burnouts and a start on the right-hand side, right-hand side.

V-Charge on. V-Charge on.

So box, practice pitstop and switch off.
