Daniel Ricciardo
11:31:36
Hard hot lap. We have the battery for two laps.
11:31:52
We have a majority on medium, on hard are Hulkenberg and Albon.
11:32:08
Alonso, on the line, starting a time lap. I'll keep you posted.
11:32:17
Fail 1-0. Fail 2-0.
11:32:34
OK, Alonso, aborted traffic. We just need to sink the 8th gear. When you come.
11:32:42
So we have the two Red Bulls ahead of you on soft, dropping down.
11:32:49
No one pushing behind. Everyone out of the lap.
11:33:03
OK, I'll leave it to you, Daniel, what we do. But OK, for charge-off, we have two laps of battery. No one pushing behind.
11:33:16
Yeah, we are on the low side, so likely mid-lap, but you can have a look.
11:33:26
On heads up, the two red bulls ahead of you will be on cool down next lap.
11:33:32
Out of putt.
11:34:50
Sainz, hard, 21.3. Your lap time, 21.4. Perez, soft, 21.0. Max, 20.0.
11:36:15
OK, mode 1 is back on.
11:36:24
OK, we have Leclerc. Maybe pushing behind you now. Two behind. Leclerc pushing one behind.
11:36:35
We can close a bit the tools if you think we are on the neutral side.
11:36:41
Consider entry 8, one step up. We are looking at Yuki. Yuki went for first push. We'll look how it looks after his cool down. So, main loss to Yuki was sector 3, a tenth and a half.
11:36:57
OK, we go for double cooldown, Daniel. We think it's best if you're happy with that.
11:37:14
So the main limitation was turn 12.
11:37:21
Under braking in turn 17 for sector 3. So it was a tenth in turn 12. With a lift before coming in on the minimum speed. Under tenth braking for turn 17.
11:37:40
Okay, Yuki is going on his purple sector 1, so we can try if you want. Up to you. Happy to try. Okay, let's try. Okay, charge of last corner.
11:39:30
OK, your lap time 19.5, Yuki 19.0 on its four tenths sector 1. We check.
11:39:42
So, turn 1-2 is the same as in the simulator. A little bit too keen. Turn 2 on losing exit, please. And the next one was turn 5-6.
11:39:56
So, again, same comment as Wednesday. Yuki is coasting more. Entry of 5 and then going on brakes later. Offset forward.
11:40:13
It was three and a half tenths turn 5-6. No one pushing behind. How was the tyres, Daniel, going again? Did it look too bad? Do you think we can try again? Yep, it was OK. Copy. So, Albon behind is on outlap. You can let him by if he wants to come. On the next car, Max, he's 13 on cooldown.
11:40:41
On heads up, Yuki used 4th gear in turn 12. We used 3rd gear.
11:40:48
Hamilton is on medium. Very slow cooldown. No one pushing behind. Good braking last corner.
11:41:10
Okay, Yuki improved another 2.5 tenths sector 1. We have lost GPS. Please watch your mirrors. But no one was pushing last time. Offset zero for the lap.
11:42:35
Hamilton pushing 4 behind. OK, let's go double cool. Hamilton coming now, pushing.
11:42:47
And then Bottas outlap is going to start a lap. Bottas one behind.
11:42:57
Bottas, two behind, about to start a lap.
11:43:02
Watch your mirrors for Bottas. We're having issues with GPS. Watch your mirrors for Bottas. Sargeant, we're closing a lap behind you. Sargeant coming behind you now.
11:43:26
OK, consider entry 9 for the next lap.
11:43:31
And try to keep temperature in the front left tyre in those cooldowns.
11:43:37
Offset forward.
11:43:41
OK, so I can't see anyone pushing behind you at the moment, but no GPS. We're relying on timings.
11:43:58
Unhappy with double cooldown, Daniel.
11:44:03
Yeah, I mean, I'll push this next lap, right? Yes.
11:44:10
Keep working on front left. Turn 12. No one pushing behind. And main difference, sector 1 is 5 and a half tenths.
11:44:26
On the same place, we are pushing a bit too hard. Turn 2, losing exit of 3. And the biggest difference is all the way through 5-6, especially entry to apex turn 5. Position is good.
11:44:44
On the bit of speed in the last two corners.
11:44:50
Sargeant 4 is about to go again. Sargeant 3.
11:44:56
Charge of last corner, S5.
11:46:30
Wait for me, starting a time-lapse. Yep. Zhou coming down. Yeah, so just pretty much a balance through the places I'm struggling.
11:46:45
Piastri 10 behind starting a time lap. Offset forward. Piastri pushing 5 behind. Do you want another lap? Our tyres are finished now. Let me try. Let me try one more. Yeah, let's do that. But single cool down. We don't have time for double, sorry. So let's do a big cool down. That's ok. Next car pushing is 16 away.
11:47:14
On reminder, on Guy Rousseff's turn 12, we have Sainz on a faster Coulogne 3 behind. You can let him by if you want. Big Space is behind. On Yuki Improved, he did 18.15, 18.15, our last time was 19.25.
11:47:30
Gasly, 7 behind pushing.
11:47:38
Gasly 4 behind pushing. On reminder, push toggle available if you need stability. 5, 6, last two corners.
11:47:46
Gasly pushing, coming by Carlos now. Gasly coming now.
11:47:55
OK, I'm going to try to keep the position on good braking last corner.
11:48:00
Offset zero. Charge off last corner.
11:49:13
Albon stops. Exit on 12.
11:49:20
OK, let's box. Box, box.
11:49:33
Ok Daniel, let's come through the pitlane for practice starts.
11:49:40
OK, red flag. Box, box.
11:49:46
Ok. I should be a static pit stop. Static pit stop. All the bikes.
11:49:54
Yep. I'll wait for feedback. Fall back.
11:50:08
Static pitstop on switch-off.
11:50:33
I'll wait. A few things to point out. Please wait. Copy that.
11:57:52
Thank you very much.
11:57:59
So we have Yuki exiting the pitlane behind you, and Norris closing a time lap, turn 17.
11:58:07
I will try to stay negative on the dash, at the line.
11:58:12
OK, Norris is closing in turn lap now. Norris on the line.
11:58:20
Target 0-0 on the dash, if we can.
11:58:28
I'm not concerned if we are below zero.
11:58:31
Ok, no one pushing beyond. I'll keep you posted.
11:58:39
Alonso is on the fast in lap.
11:58:44
Here's a... five pence.
11:58:47
And good braking in the places you can, please. Alonso 4 behind on the first in-lap.
11:59:02
Alonso, two behind. Next car pushing max is 17. I'll keep you posted on max.
11:59:14
So, Leclerc, soft, did a 17.4. He found one second compared to his hard tyre.
11:59:25
On max is 12 behind and we're going to have to find a little bit of pace for brakes on timings. Offset zero.
11:59:33
Reminder for the third to go in the chicane.
11:59:38
Max is 10 behind.
11:59:45
Offset zero. Max 4.5. Max 3.5. Three.
12:01:23
OK, Daniel Chargeon, watch your mirrors, Yuki, closing your time lap.
12:01:37
OK, so sector 1, it was 5 tenths. On sector 2, 2 tenths. We will check.
12:01:48
If we can, with traffic, try to prepare the brakes a little bit better.
12:02:00
Everyone on a slow lap. First car pushing, 8 behind. And then he's got another car, 5 behind him. Gas is 6.
12:02:15
Gas is 3.5.
12:02:20
Gas in 2.5. Coming now.
12:02:25
OK, stay within 10 car lengths. That's it.
12:02:30
So it's double cool? Yes.
12:02:34
Offset forward.
12:02:42
Yeah, turn 17 a bit too much entry speed from what we can see. If that's a conclusion for you also.
12:02:58
We need to really keep up that braking in the second cool-down, please.
12:03:13
On the Yuki's time lap was a 17.5 for reference.
12:03:28
Braking turn 1 was 30m earlier braking.
12:03:38
And it was 2 tenths turn 5-6. Piastri starting a push up 2 behind.
12:03:51
On reminder, we haven't used push to go turn 5-6, if that's something you want to try. So we try to be easy on power and build up some speed for the brakes.
12:04:08
And we can afford some weaving for the front tyres. Push a bit in turn 12, front left.
12:04:16
Next car pushing is 15.
12:04:30
Bottas, 11 pushing.
12:04:36
And we need more braking, last sector, more braking on push turn 12.
12:04:46
Bottas pushing 6.
12:04:52
Is it clear behind Bottas? Yes. Russell 15.
12:04:59
Bottas 3, then Russell 13.
12:05:05
Bottas, two. Russell, ten. Okay, pick up some speed. Good braking. Do it now, please.
12:05:20
Charge off. Offset zero.
12:06:55
Box, box, box, box. You can push in the end lap.
12:07:11
Leclerc 7 behind pushing.
12:07:28
Leclerc pushing forward behind.
12:07:41
Leclerc 2, coming now.
12:07:56
Hamilton, 6th pushing. Box, box.
12:08:08
Box. Box.
12:08:11
Stop in front of the garage. Stop on the mark.
12:08:19
That's it.
12:20:50
Charge on mode 1 when you can.
12:21:20
Track is clear.
12:21:27
We have a few cars on long run. I'll keep you posted when they come. Next car behind is 12.
12:21:35
Tell me to keep the pace.
12:21:41
Let's not drop too much but happy to do an outlap not to hit the rear tyres. There's quite a bit of traffic coming behind. Ocon 7 behind pushing. We'll see what we can get with the position at the end. Nowhere to go at the moment. Is he on high fuel? Confirmed. Ocon high fuel 4.5 and then he's got two cars behind him the same. Ok, I'll stay in front. Ok, sounds good. Reminder on brakings.
12:22:15
We've got the two red bulls going a bit slower ahead. Double cool down.
12:22:21
Offset zero when you want, charge up last corner.
12:22:36
Okay, copy on traffic ahead of you. Copy on traffic ahead of you.
12:22:55
Do you want me to still try to push?
12:24:08
OK, recharge on the line but keep the pace up, please. Keep the pace up for timings. Recharge on the line up to turn 6.
12:24:19
Strat 10 when you can.
12:24:37
OK for charge-off. Mode 6.
12:26:58
Ok Daniel, this will be in lap. We will box for a live pitstop. Make sure you keep the pace up please. Tight on timings.
12:27:56
Box, box, box, box, live pitstop for tyre on flat change.
12:28:20
Live pitstop on straight back on track.
12:28:40
We have Piastri exit last corner. Piastri on the line.
12:28:49
Piastri coming through and then it's 10 seconds to Hulkenberg. Reminder on the balance. Reminder on the balance. We just need the straight line data.
12:28:59
You can open the gap to Piastri and we stay ahead of Hulkenberg. Hulkenberg 7 behind.
12:29:10
Strat 11.
12:29:38
Entry 10 available.
12:29:44
And we can keep using the push to go for the high speed. Reminder.
12:29:52
Do you want more of a gap to Piastri or are you OK? Please, please, please, try to open more of this lap. And we will have one more lap before the flag. Let's try to get a clean, straight line lap. And no DRS.
12:31:02
Okay, Daniel, we're taking the flag this lap. Use DRS on this lap, please.
12:31:14
OK. So we use DRS and then mode 12 when you get to turn 2.
12:31:37
On mode 12 after turn 3.
12:31:47
That will be two times after turn 7, two times after turn 15. Please confirm. Click overtake, first gear and then anti-deploy.
12:32:02
Hulkenberg 4 behind. We're good for now.
12:32:18
Copy. Same again after turn 15.
12:32:29
And good job with anti-deploy. We repeat the same, exit turn 15.
12:32:42
Exit turn 15. Yes, next exit. Hulkenberg 5.
12:32:57
And anti-deploy.
12:33:03
We start from the right-hand side, as far forward as you can. One tyre warming. Target is one shallow.
12:33:17
Right hand side, one burnout.
12:33:38
Mode 3 for the start.
12:34:11
OK, Daniel, we can take it easy on a bit of pit entry test.
12:35:07
Box. Box. Static pitstop.
12:35:35
Static pitstop on switch-off.
