20:32:40
Still got a couple of cars queuing at the end.
20:32:49
So Gio just starting his lap over the finish line now, and Valtteri, he's just starting his lap, should be just clear of us. So Stroll will be the next car about to start a lap, and he's on the start-finish line now.
20:33:07
And then 10 seconds behind him, two Alonso, so Stroll through turn 1, turn 2.
20:33:14
Alonso now over the start-finish line. Just starting his lap. He's coming down now, braking to turn 1. So he's going to be alongside, exit turn 1. OK, he's clear. And the next car starting the lap is Sainz, 9 seconds. Sainz at 6.5 on a lap.
20:33:39
Clear behind Sainz for 20 seconds.
20:33:48
Now, 2 to Sainz.
20:33:56
So we've got a gaggle of about three, four cars in around turn 15, 16 at the moment. It might cause us an issue in sector 3.
20:34:17
Gap behind. Is there someone pushing? It's Norris pushing. 14 seconds. It's just updated, sorry. 12 seconds.
20:34:27
Sector 3 is looking better now. I think that'll be clear by the time we get there. We've got Norris' car behind on a lap 8 seconds and then it's 16 to Perez on a lap.
20:34:43
So just get that gap to Ricciardo, he's the only car to go, and that'll be clear sector 3.
20:34:50
And Norris at 6 on a lap.
20:36:35
Traction's feeling very poor.
20:36:40
So, currently at P5.
20:36:57
So just confirming double cool. We'll be passing through the pitlane. Tsunoda car behind just completed his lap.
20:37:10
First car on the lap will be Sainz. Currently eight seconds.
20:37:17
Sainz at 6, now 5, 4.
20:37:25
2 to Sainz. Clear behind him.
20:37:30
So we're targeting minus 20 on your dash from here.
20:37:36
And let me know if you need anything on flap adjust in the pits.
20:38:05
So still clear behind.
20:38:32
So, box, box, passing through the pitlane, straight out.
20:38:42
Just keep an eye on the brake lights. Copy. Yeah, happy to stop on the brakes if you want to stop and go again. How long can we hold for?
20:38:52
Very short. Two seconds.
20:39:01
OK, that's good to go now.
20:39:19
Sir, we'll be clear currently on exit.
20:39:26
The first car that will be starting a lap is Verstappen, but he's 15 seconds behind.
20:39:51
So Verstappen on a lap six behind at 5.4
20:39:59
Three to Verstappen. Two.
20:40:05
Next car is Zhou at 6.5.
20:40:17
So now it's Zhou, five seconds to him.
20:40:26
Zhou at 3. Coming up. 2 to Zhou.
20:40:31
There's two behind Albon.
20:40:35
OK, so Joe at 2.
20:40:42
Phase cut off. OK. So next car will be Valtteri. He's seven seconds behind. Unallowed a little bit of bunching now in sector 3 here. Two cars currently. I'll get ahead of Sargeant and then it'll be just Leclerc who's going. OK, so that's going to be clear now. Strat 2. Good to go.
20:42:44
OK, so strat 1. Box, box.
20:42:49
Need to change my helmet for Q2. Affirm. We'll get a late shot on that.
20:43:05
That's currently P4.
20:43:21
Trigger low at the rear on lap 1.
20:43:28
But came to you lap 2. Better, yes. Understood.
20:44:24
Box, box, stop on your marks and switch off.
20:44:59
Yeah, the rear instability was mainly from the tyre rather than balance. Just going to start taking my helmet off.
20:49:55

20:50:50
First car? First car is Magnussen. Currently 22 seconds away.
20:51:02
So track is all clear now. Gap ahead 6.5, 7.
20:51:30
Magnussen at 12 seconds on a lap. Sainz ahead is right behind Lewis.
20:51:43
So Magnussen car behind 11 seconds on a lap.
20:51:48
And then Hulkenberg at 20, also on a lap.
20:52:02
So I expect Sainz to back up towards you at the end of this lap.
20:52:07
Make sure you build that gap. Magnussen now seven seconds.
20:52:25
So Magnussen at 4, now 3, 2, and 1.
20:52:32
And next car, Hulk, 10 seconds. Hulk now 7, 6, 5. It'll be strat 2. Good to go.
20:54:22
OK, so strat 1. We'll go for a double cool.
20:54:32
Piastri car behind just completed his lap with target minus 12 from here on the dash.
20:54:57
George, just give us a balance check. OK.
20:55:21
Passing through the pits.
20:55:46
So, George, we might be a little bit tight on time for passing through the pitlane, but we'll keep you updated. Make that call.
20:56:10
So, very nice box. Passing through the pitlane, straight through this time, no stopping the box.
20:56:32
How's the traffic going to be on exit? Clear at the moment. First car, Magnussen, 15 seconds. I think he's going to start his lap. So just build that gap to Lewis.
20:56:45
He's got Piastri right ahead of him. So Magnussen, first car on a lap. He's at start-finish line now. Seven seconds, now six.
20:57:10
One. And then it's eight seconds to Tsunoda. Now seven. Six to Tsunoda on a lap. Five.
20:57:25
So, check diff entry.
20:57:34
Tsunoda now at 3.
20:57:42
Clear behind Tsunoda.
20:57:46
And we've got three cars currently turned 16.
20:57:56
Verstappen, 10 seconds on a lap.
20:58:13
So we've got Lewis and Piastri at turn 17 to go. And now Verstappen behind five seconds on a lap. Four. Three. It's clear behind him. Two.
20:58:28
And it'll be strat 2. Good to go.
21:00:12
OK, so strat 1. Box, box.
21:00:18
Sadly, that's P11.
21:01:12
Looks like quite a few people out there struggling for grip on that second run. Sainz the only car to improve on that run.
21:02:07
So we're on the waybridge.
