Daniel Ricciardo
13:55:17
OK, Daniel, that's 5 minutes to green. Onward phase with everyone, obviously.
13:55:24
We are happy to keep the engine on. I will keep you posted.
13:56:06
And just about four minutes to go.
13:56:11
Understood.
13:56:42
OK, Daniel, can you go to P1, please? We're going to stop the engine a couple of minutes.
13:56:49
Wait 30 seconds or we can go back to P2.
13:57:04
Yeah, understood. I can't quite see, is it four cars in front of me?
13:57:21
I think it's 3. Back to P2.
13:57:34
So it's two Mercedes and one Williams. And then we've got Williams, McLaren and Yuki, the cars behind.
13:57:46
OK. Understood.
13:57:53
When there's a hard outlap, we try to open the outlap. If there's a clear issue, we convert to a belt. And that will be still a push-pull push. On default, it's to push in the inlap, please.
13:58:08
Yep. Patrick, you still happy with the outlap offset? Yes. Considering we'll be sitting here a while? Still happy.
13:58:49
Engine start.
13:59:18
Hello? What's 50 seconds?
13:59:25
We have a significant trend behind you as expected.
13:59:34
So do what you have to do before the safety car line and then we push in third lap and we see if we can nail the first lap.
13:59:46
We need to engage seventh gear in the tunnel to sync the gear, please. 30 seconds.
14:00:06
10 seconds.
14:00:43
We just heard from Williams Radio they are planning push-pull-push ahead of you.
14:00:50
Hard outlap. Everyone's pushing hard. Let's go for it. Unsink the gears in the tunnel.
14:01:19
Sargeant 3.5, so let's try to open a bit more if we have margin on the minimum time.
14:01:45
Offset minus two. Pull to colon. You know the plan.
14:01:56
Ciao ciaopascona!
14:03:22
We're going to have some cars pushing behind. Sargeant aborted. Four behind. Offset 2. Sargeant 3.5 pushing. Sargeant 2 pushing.
14:03:36
Perez, 6 pushing. On copy on minimum time, we have traffic.
14:03:42
Perez 3 behind.
14:03:46
Perez 3 pushing. It was 1.5 tenths braking turn 1. Perez now. We have Verstappen 10, Albon 8. Both pushing.
14:03:59
Yuki 13.0, your lap time 14.3. Max 4 behind pushing.
14:04:08
Max 3.5, pushing.
14:04:14
Max coming now, pushing. Denis Albon, 4, pushing.
14:04:20
Albon, one pushing. And then it's Bottas, seven pushing.
14:04:27
Shall we push this next lap? Yes. Bottas three beyond pushing. Bottas two.
14:04:36
Is there a gap behind you? 09 and then Magnussen 10. Offset minus two. Pull to column.
14:04:50
Zeus 3.5, pushing.
14:04:57
Zou 2.5. Zou coming now. Pushing. Then Magnussen 3. You have to go straight away.
14:05:17
We have time to abort this lap and go again if you need.
14:05:25
Yeah, traffic turn 3. Copy traffic. Crazy traffic. Copy traffic. Next car pushing, Norris 10 behind.
14:05:35
So, let's take the position and we go again next lap. We will need a hard in-lap. Please confirm.
14:05:44
Yep, understood. Is anyone pushing behind? Yes, Norris 8. And behind him? Yuki 12, but lots of traffic for them. Keep the position to Albon. Good braking turn 10. Push in turn 10.
14:06:01
OK, we have two Red Bulls ahead of you. Norris six behind pushing.
14:06:10
Norris five pushing, Yuki eight pushing. On three cars to go ahead. Pull toggle on, offset minus two, it's good. Norris two pushing. OK, two cars to go ahead of you. Norris now. OK, Yuki four pushing. Yuki three pushing. Still one red bull to go. Yuki two pushing coming now.
14:06:35
Charge off. Anyone else pushing? Charge off, you can go.
14:08:01
Hard in-lap. Push in the in-lap. On that P12, 10 milliseconds to Yuki. Good job. Albon, 2 behind, should be on cool-down. Hard in-lap.
14:08:16
Offset 4. Try to take position hard in lap.
14:08:26
First car pushing Norris, 10 behind. Push in the end lap.
14:09:02
Norris, 5. Box, box.
14:09:11
Norris pushing 2. Norris pushing 2. Coming now. What's your preference, Daniel, for the next run? Other car going push, cool push.
14:09:21
I'm happy to go and consider the build if we are both. Yep. So it's either we push first and then double cool or we will do a build. Happy with that?
14:09:51
OK, Daniel, so main place is braking turn 1. Yuki is braking around 10 metres later.
14:10:01
Turn 3, this lap was very good.
14:11:13
We think the double couple push is optimum.
14:11:21
Good work on brakes and tyres.
14:11:30
No one pushing behind.
14:11:40
So Daniel, just to recap on the plan. Baseline is push, double cool, push. But if you need to abort, we can do a build and convert like the previous run. Please confirm.
14:11:55
Yep, understood. Good. Position is good. Sargeant 5 ahead, Hulkenberg 5 behind. Everyone out lap. So if we have a bit of margin with the minimum time, hard braking turn 10 and open the gap more in turn 10, where we don't lose temperature.
14:12:19
OK, good job. Brakes are in a very good place. Offset minus two. We have two cars to go. End of lap.
14:12:35
Pull to column. Sargeant last corner.
14:14:01
On double cooldown, we try to stay negative, please. Offset forward. OK, that was a good effort. Obviously track will keep improving. Keep working on front tyres and brakes. First car pushing, Verstappen 8. So Hulkenberg, face with us, did 11.9. Your lap time 12.1. Max 5 behind pushing.
14:14:27
Max 3 behind pushing. Max now.
14:14:32
Sargeant, 5 pushing. OK, braking turn 1 was much better. We have around 5 metres margin now. Sargeant, 3 pushing.
14:14:47
OK, Sergeant 2 pushing. Sergeant behind you now. And then it's Albon 5. These people will go for single cooldown, will be phased on the next lap. Albon 2.5 pushing.
14:15:02
Albon behind you now. Bottas 5 pushing. Bottas 3 pushing and then Norris 10.
14:15:10
Bottas, two pushing, coming now.
14:15:14
Keep the position to Hulkenberg. Next one is Norris 7.
14:15:20
Yep, we do another crew. Yes, yes, Vodka Evolution.
14:15:30
Norris aborted. Next cooldown, we focus on the minimum time, unless we have traffic.
14:15:43
And we're currently P14 with the last lap.
14:15:57
OK, we have Sainz 3 behind pushing. Sainz 2.5 pushing. And that's it, just Sainz. And keep the position. OK, that's it. Yuki 11.85. That's 3 tenths. And biggest difference was sector 2. We are faced with everyone now. Position is good.
14:16:25
So Yuki is sacrificing a little bit of minimum speed turn 4, gaining on exit.
14:16:38
We need to be negative. We need to go faster. Work on front tyres and brakes. Next car pushing, Alonso, 16.
14:16:51
And a reminder, turn 10 and 3, not overspeed to focus on exits. Offset minus two, pull to go long.
14:17:30
And that's 11.8.
14:18:48
Okay, good lap, Daniel. I'll keep you posted. Stay negative on your way in, please. Stay negative.
14:18:57
Offset forward.
14:19:01
OK, good effort. So your lap time 11.8, Yuki 11.85.
14:19:10
Box, box. Did we make it?
14:19:15
Confirmed. Confirmed.
14:19:28
That's P11 in this section. Negative at the line, please. Box, box.
14:19:37
Have a think of balance, please. What we need with the flap and also the program.
14:19:44
So, I quite like the program we have, Daniel, with the push-jabber-cool-push on margin for converting. What's your view? Box, box. Yep.
14:20:01
OK, so we'll have four minutes in the garage, Daniel, just about.
14:20:09
Box, box. Watch your brake lights.
14:20:24
We would stay with the flap.
14:20:28
OK, Daniel, so in this lap, braking turn 1 was good. You were spot on to Yuki. We are braking a bit earlier now in turn 10, around 5 to 10 metres, and we lose one tenth there. Your entry approach was there better now and you didn't lose time on exit, so we just need to focus a bit on the braking point there.
14:20:52
OK. In terms of balance... I'll go ahead.
14:20:58
I was just going to ask if you're on.
14:21:03
We need more.
14:23:42
Just for garage exit on the second run, we will have to decide before we go if we want to go for a bail or not. Otherwise we'll be too early. Please confirm.
14:23:59
Sorry, just repeat that. So at the moment there is no data to say it should be a build, looking at everyone else. So the baseline on our side will be a single push end of session. Ok. Hard left lap again. We are one minute to green.
14:24:24
On what you did previously on the brakes, it was very, very good. Same again, please.
14:24:31
So, heads up, our plan is to do push-double-cool-push, but if you abort first push, we go for a build on the single cool. 30 seconds. OK.
14:24:58
20 seconds. Make sure you open a good enough gap to the house and then we have a hard outlap.
14:25:15
Five seconds.
14:25:41
OK, Hulkenberg, Niner heads. Head down, push on the tyres, on brakes.
14:26:30
Offset minus two. Full offset minus one. Full throttle is behind 1.0 DRS enabled. I have understeer at turn 5 and oversteer at turn 8. I have understeer at turn 5 and oversteer at turn 8.
14:26:43
On reminder, on the plan, we have margins on flexibility. Charger plus contact.
14:28:06
Piastri is close behind, starting a push-up. 3.5. 3.5 pushing. Offset forward, double cool-down. Piastri is 3 pushing. Piastri 2 pushing. Coming now.
14:28:23
OK, your lap time is 11.2, Hulkenberg 11.9. I'll keep you posted on UK. No threat behind for now. Next car is 12.
14:28:38
Make sure we stay negative. Still similar comments. We have to be negative.
14:28:47
So, turn 1 was a step back compared to previous lap. Around 10 metres, braking turn 1. Albon pushing 8. On Yuki did 11.3. Our lap time 12.2.
14:29:05
Braking turn 10 was good, but we need to keep focusing on slower entry turn 10. More speed on exit. Albon pushing 5, then Magnussen 9.
14:29:20
Albon 2, pushing. Albon behind you now. And then Magnussen 6. I will be faced with these guys on the next cool-down. Magnussen 3. Magnussen 3, pushing. On Daniel, the view is single push for the last run. Please confirm. Magnussen closing a time lap behind you.
14:29:50
Understood. Ok, no one pushing behind.
14:30:00
Hamilton pushing, correction, 4 behind. He went again. Hamilton 2.5 pushing. Hamilton 2 coming now. Then Norris 5 pushing. Norris 4 pushing. Norris coming now and then it's max 8.
14:30:19
Okay, what you did is good. Two points to the cars ahead. Copy on traffic for the minimum time. Copy on traffic. Good braking turn 10. We need to focus there. Max pushing 4.
14:30:33
Max pushing 3.
14:30:37
Max behind you now. And then pick up speed for turn 10. Consider entry 8. Russell 3.5 pushing. And then Leclerc 9.
14:30:51
Russell 2.5. Russell 2 pushing. Russell now on the Leclerc 7.
14:31:03
Offset minus two. Pull toggle on. Let's get ready.
14:31:08
And a reminder, entry 8 if you need. Leclerc 2.5 is coming. Let him by please. And then big gap behind.
14:31:16
OK, position is good. Charge off last corner.
14:32:42
Push in the inlap. Push in the inlap, please.
14:32:49
Offset forward and we will go for single push Daniel.
14:32:54
Okay, so similar comments, turn 1 braking, turn 3. We tried to repeat what we did in Q1. It was a bit more difficult now. We have Hamilton on a fast outlap, 3.5.
14:33:10
Would you like to remove the half-step or flap we made?
14:33:17
I don't think it makes too much difference, unless you guys see it. Ok, keep us posted if you need some help or something.
14:33:25
But let's try to get back to our Q1 reference. Turn 1, turn 12.
14:33:32
Box, box, keep the pace up please. Hamilton two behind. Hard outlap.
14:33:44
Box, box, box, box.
14:33:51
Box, box.
14:34:16
OK, Daniel, so braking turn 1 was now again 5 to 10 metres earlier, so we need to focus on the braking point there, similar to what you did in Q1.
14:34:29
Braking point in turn 10 is aligned now to Yuki, but we carry a little bit too much entry speed and we then lose out on exit.
14:34:41
And in turn 12, in these two laps, you were using one gear lower, so Yuki was in 5th, whereas you were in 4th, and we lost a bit of minimum speed there. Basically what we said in the office.
14:34:56
On Daniel, we plan to lead the group to make sure we can push in the outlap. But what's important is that you make enough of a gap before safety car line. Please confirm. Yeah, I need a clean outlap. Let's do that. We'll try our best. But make sure you open the gap also at the pit exit so you have enough margin.
14:35:22
And what do you think of entry 8 for a bit more stability in general?
14:35:35
On Daniele, if we can repeat our Q1 lap time, it's close to Magnussen in P13.
14:36:33
On dyno, we want the same fastest lap and push the last two corners.
14:36:43
Understood, Patrick. Do you think we still need push for turn 3?
14:36:51
If you are not limited by stability, I'm happy to cancel it.
14:37:33
OK, Daniel, you can take it easy where you are and then good outlap, please. Keep opening the gap to Hamilton in turn 1. We have Gasly exit last corner. He may go for a build. Not sure.
14:37:45
Gasly did a build in the previous session. Gasly will come faster on the build. Try to keep the pace up. Gasly, turn 1. He's definitely not pushing. Confirmed. Confirmed. Position is good. Hard outlap. Position is very good.
14:38:05
First car pushing is Magnussen, 10. Hamilton is forward. Gasly, 3 behind. Faced with him. Magnussen pushing, 9.
14:38:23
Good braking turn 10. Keep up the speed. And then we have margin on minimum time to open to Hamilton in turn 10. Magnussen pushing. Negative. Only him. Only Hamilton.
14:38:39
Magnussen pushing 7.
14:38:43
Offset minus two. Pull toggle. Get ready.
14:38:50
Open the gap more. Magnussen 4.5, Magnussen 4, Magnussen 3.5. Coming now. Coming now. Brakes are very good. OK, you go now. Hulkenberg coming.
14:39:05
Carry speed, charge off.
14:40:28
OK, Daniel, that's P7.
14:40:34
Negative on your way in, please.
14:40:37
Yep. I really struggle to get tyres there. At first push. We need to have a negative on our way in, please. Thank you.
14:41:06
Understood. Yeah, 5 to 8, I'd swear it. Help me!
14:41:25
Okay, so that's P13 and it's a bit more than two and a half tenths to Albon in P10.
14:41:36
On the Yuki is P9. Four tenths. Box, box, watch your pressure, please.
14:42:17
Ok Daniel, so we need to have a look. So we are clearly faster than Yuki in the outlap. So we need to understand what you're feeling. Because that outlap we were carrying a lot more energy in the tyres. Well, a lot more. More. But I feel, so turn 5, as soon as I turn in and go mid-corner, I'll have one exit.
