20:05:57
Gain 0.5 behind with DRS. 0.3.
20:06:36
No, it's in DRS point 2 behind.
20:06:42
Reset left toggle and get a chance. Car behind is Bottas.
20:06:59
Car behind is Ricciardo, also on hard tyres.
20:07:34
OK, I'm appreciating how he's struggling with the tyres. Hard tyres probably not giving you much grip. Ricciardo behind on the same tyres. He's 0.4 behind with DRS.
20:09:09
Cargo 0.8 DRS.
20:09:46
Ricardo, one second behind, no DRS.
20:10:42
Make it one track limit warning at turn 6.
20:10:51
Ricardo is 1.2 behind.
20:11:22
You are one second behind Bottas but just missed out on DRS. Ricciardo 1.4 behind.
20:12:16
OK, let's not do any more lift and coast on these tyres. Help with temperature. Unless you need it for car balance.
20:13:50
Thank you. For late entry stability, suggest P6.
20:14:29
Mercado 1.1 mode DRS. You're very strong in sector 2, Kevin, which is how you catch back up to Bottas. Cars ahead are all doing roughly 34.0. Up to 34.4 for Ocon, who's holding this queue up just in front of you.
20:15:28
Pardon, P7 with DRS.
20:17:03
Throttle 0.8.
20:18:36
To help reduce understeer at turn 6, if you go to DX3, it will make the left toggle more effective.
20:19:14
Carburetor point 8.
20:20:13
Turn in one second but it does have DRS. Albon prefers car to pit. He's now 12 seconds behind us on fresh hards.
20:20:46
Bottas ahead has lost DRS.
20:21:46
OK, lots of cars boxing now. Obviously Bottas in front of you, also Sargeant and Stroll, so you're currently in P15.
20:22:24
Mercado 0.8.
20:22:28
For reference, Albon on his fresh hards is 11 seconds behind.
20:23:58
Picado 0.8, you are now P13 because Nico and Gasly boxed.
20:25:00
So, for reference, Albon's last lap had 34.5 on his fresher hards, so not much faster than yourself.
20:26:31
Ricciardo 0.7 behind Ricciardo is Nico. He's eight seconds behind you.
20:27:07
Cargo 0.9.
20:27:32
Forty-one laps to go.
20:28:03
Suggest DX2 to help with the left toggle, turns 4 to 8.
20:28:17
Ricciardo has lost DRS.
20:28:42
I can't know what point to block behind.
20:29:40
Ricardo, back into DRS. He's 0.9 behind.
20:30:13
Zhou is 4.3 seconds ahead of you. His last lap was 34.0. He's consistently about one tenth per lap quicker than you.
20:32:48
The only place you lose to Nico on as much fresher tyres is the high-speed kerb, so I'm guessing that's just lack of grip.
20:33:23
Ricciardo one second with DRS. Zhou is now 3.8 ahead of you. You gained 3 tenths last lap.
20:34:22
I don't know what to expect.
20:34:58
Recon at point 7.
20:36:21
Debris exit 14.16. Watch for debris on track.
20:37:28
BSC and safety car windows are open. Ricciardo has Nico about three seconds behind him. That's why he's pushing like hell to try and keep up at least or get ahead of you. You are catching Zhou though. His gap is down to 3.3.
20:38:09
Recaro 0.7.
20:38:15
VSC, VSC, VSC. Box, box, box, box, box, box.
20:38:25
Please confirm you're box secure. Oh, I see you are, yeah.
20:38:57
Okay, push to safety car line 2, BSC ending.
20:39:06
Box has three and a half seconds behind. Three seconds behind.
20:39:12
Bottas 2.7 behind.
20:39:28
So there's 34 laps to go, including this one. We went up 0.2.
20:39:40
Suggest EB8 to start on these tyres.
20:39:48
Car ahead of you is Sargeant. He's on 11 lap hearts.
20:40:02
I suggest coming back to DX3 to tighten up the high speed again, unless you like it like that.
20:41:00
I think I'm still a long way to go on these tyres, so let's just bring them in gently. Bit of lift and coast and the next couple of laps won't hurt.
20:42:38
So Tsunoda, Russell, Ricciardo and Zhou still have not boxed. They'll come out behind you.
20:43:09
You are P19 at the moment. That will become P16.
20:47:35
You've got front wing damage, you've got front wing damage.
20:48:36
Reset the bouncer just when you can. Please keep boxing this lap.
20:49:15
OK, kit mode RS for the start.
20:49:48
Mode slow, please. Gap mode slow.
20:50:09
So, Stroll is 29 seconds ahead of you, just for reference.
20:50:17
That's the back of the pack.
20:50:44
Mode W, please, Kevin. Mode W.
20:51:57
We're two times past CAV, so you can catch up to the pack.
20:52:06
You've got Bottas 22 seconds ahead of you, and then he is 13 seconds behind the next car, which is Stroll.
20:52:57
Got the track clear. It's at turns 2 and 3.
20:53:02
The problem we've got is that Norris is well ahead of all the rest of the cars, so everyone's going fast. So you're still 22 seconds behind Bottas, but he's now 7 seconds behind Stroll.
20:53:30
Norris has just caught the safety car, so the pack is going to start closing up shortly. And we have a 10 second time penalty.
20:53:44
Mode push, get mode push to catch up with the pack.
20:54:43
Box, box, box.
20:54:49
We're taking the penalty, Kev, we're taking the penalty. So it's a 10 second penalty.
20:55:32
OK, you're 30 seconds behind the pack and they are restarting at the end of this lap.
20:55:51
Bottas, 21 seconds ahead.
20:56:06
Norris is dropping back to the safety car.
20:57:29
And I have 30 seconds.
20:58:27
24 laps to go. Gap ahead 12.4.
20:59:57
23 laps to go. Gap ahead 11.3.
21:01:30
Twenty-two laps to go. Gap is 10.3.
21:03:01
21 laps to go. Gap to Bottas 9.2.
21:04:32
Twenty laps to go. Gap is 8.4.
21:06:05
19 laps to go. Gap is 7.4.
21:06:37
Please press the oil pump up, please press the oil pump up.
21:08:52
Track surface warning at the last corner, Kev. Track surface warning.
21:11:15
We did not serve the 10 second time penalty correctly because we served it within the safety car period. So, we don't want to cause trouble with the cars ahead. Okay? Don't want to cause any trouble with the cars ahead.
21:11:33
Bottas is doing 33.0. He's 4.8 seconds ahead of you.
21:11:50
If you can catch up to Bottas, but just sit behind him for the time being, please.
21:14:22
We've got Piastri three seconds behind us. He had front wing damage, so had to box. When he catches up to you, just let him through without any issues, please.
21:14:37
His last lap was a 30.6. He's got fresh tyres.
21:15:20
Thirteen laps to go. Bottas is three seconds ahead.
21:15:49
Piastri, 1.8 seconds behind.
21:16:27
Piastri, 4.7 seconds behind.
21:16:55
That's 12 laps to go, Kim. Bottas 2.3 in front, Piastri 1.5 behind.
21:18:00
Gas 3.7, DRS.
21:18:25
Eleven laps to go.
21:21:42
9 seconds to go. I think that's not good.
21:23:05
Eight laps to go.
21:25:42
Just for a record, Ocon is about 12 seconds ahead of you in P10. There are six laps to go at the end of this lap.
21:27:42
Five laps to go.
21:30:48
Three more laps.
21:32:19
Two more laps.
21:33:52
Starting the final lap.
21:34:29
Stroll has a 10 second penalty. He's 9 seconds in front of you for reference.
21:35:26
OK, Kev, that's the chequered flag. Yeah, not much to say. We'll talk about it afterwards. Sorry a lot of stuff went on there.
21:35:39
For reference, Norris won the race from Verstappen, Leclerc 3rd, Sainz 4th, Perez 5th, Hamilton 6th, Tsunoda 7th, Russell 8th, Alonso 9th and Ocon P10.
21:36:10
You've finished P18. Albon was behind you.
21:37:44
OK, Kev, when you come to a stop, usual story, please go from P2 to P1 and then after a pause, P0, please.
