We're just going to hold the car here for a minute. We're fired up to go. There's still a queue at the end of the pitlane. I don't know if we better keep it new, in case we change our mind for later.

We won't learn anything, I'd rather keep it new and then we can always rethink what we want to do, but up to you. Yeah, so Pierre, we have to return it anyways, so it's either don't run or just try and go out in, even if we do an out in. Just maybe get a read on that rear heave stiffness.

Alright, let's just go for an out and then if we need to come back in, we can.

What's the other guy saying? I will let you know.

So it looks like turn 3 is the worst condition, so caution there. Yeah, forget it. Almost went out in the pit exit.

Ok, so let's just box this lap here. Let's go ahead and box this lap.

And we can feel free to go recharge off towards the end and push down the back straight to get a read on heave stiffness, but no need to do a time lap if we're not comfortable.

Most cars coming back in the box.

So we can go recharge off if you wish, but we're boxing this lap. Let's go, let's go. I just want a tyre.

Okay, just don't take any risks.

Ok, Pierre, so Hamilton still out and pushing. All other cars have boxed. You can keep pushing if you like.

And Hamilton first lap was a 34.8. Second lap he was improving.

Yeah, I just have no temps.

Okay, Pierre, from our side, we're happy to box. We feel we're not losing anything.

OK, Pierre, so how's the track?

Getting better.

Am I still the only one? You're still the only one on track. You're P1 at the minute.

Yeah, let me do laps.

Is it going to rain later or not? Still rain on the radar. Happy to keep going.

OK, Pierre, if we can get scenario 3. Scenario 3.

A couple cars joining you now on track.

Okay, Pierre, if we could try sock 5. Sock 5.

Ok, Pierre, you have the back left available for turn 10. Back left for turn 10.

Go south to Erling Muldau.

Okay, Pierre, so as long as the track is still safe, if you think you're learning something, we can stay out. But if it gets difficult, we can come in.

Let's just watch out for Hamilton behind. He's two seconds back.

Let's box. Box, Pierre, box.

So we're going to recharge on. You've got no threats behind. Let's box this lap.

Okay, we've got Esteban and Magnussen crossing the start finish now.

Esteban starting a time-lap, Magnussen on a time-lap. Okay, now you've got a 20 second gap to Piastri behind.

So we can be pushing on this outlap. We need to build some temp into tyres, but we can run in this scenario in SOC for a couple laps. Esteban's in P11 with a 17.9. Alonso P1, 15.8.

Yeah, I got quite a bit of vibration.

OK, Pierre, we can see the vibration. Feel free to start the lap, but if you think it's limiting you, then move into this setting. I've got to go for a warm-up. Temperatures are lower.

Yep, the tyre temps will come in, so let's just keep pushing. We can go recharge off.

And we can go recharge off and push again.

Brake more. There's some drops, no significant increase at the minute.

I don't know if it's the... OK, a bit more rain where you are. Other cars reported.

I don't know, I front-locked. I didn't feel like I can really boost.

Yeah, we think we do have a small flat spot on the front right, which is the one that's giving you some issues.

Temperatures are still coming up. You're within 5 degrees of the other car.

What are the other guys doing at the moment? Still improving? This just seems like more rain now. Most cars boxing at the minute, so let's box this lap mate.

Are we gonna get any more dry air?

With the rain on the radar, I wouldn't plan for more dry running. Sainz has stayed out.

Yeah, we don't want to take any risk.

Yeah, Bottas and Sainz and Russell still out, so if you want to try for another one... Fuck it. All right, let's box this lap mate, come on.

Okay, Pierre, you've got Norris on the start-finish straight, starting the time lap, and then a large gap behind him.

So let's just watch out for Norris. He's in turn 1.

And we've got two seconds to Norris behind.

I have understeer at turn 5 and oversteer at turn 8.

And we're happy to go recharge off Pierre, happy to just push straight away.

No transcript available

OK, Pierre, so temperature still coming up. Esteban, last lap was a 28.7.

Just watch out for yellow turn. It's clear, clear.

Okay, Pierre. Temps still building. How's the track?

Alright, stop.

Okay, Pierre, let's keep pushing. Esteban's done a 27.5.

OK, what's your suggestion? Keep pushing or the tyres are... Yeah, from our side, happy to keep pushing. We can't change scenario in stock. We've got time to gain braking for turn 8.

What's the brake offset? Yep, standby. I've also got some time to gain in turn 5.

So Pierre, cross, car, brake, shape and offset are the same. For this next lap let's go scenario 8, sock 4. We can do some single laps from here. Scenario 8, sock 4.

Okay, Pierre, let's go recharge on. Happy to keep pushing on this charge lap, but we need to recharge the battery.

And we've got six seconds to Esteban behind on a time lap. What do you mean? We told Valtteri I have like more than half.

Alright, we can do two laps consecutive, sorry. Yeah, it's marked already. That's okay, let's back off. We've got Esteban five seconds back.

Four seconds, Esteban.

And two and a half to Esteban.

And one second to Esteban. Recharge off.

And okay, Pierre, if we can go SOC 12. We've got two laps remaining. We can push to the end.

So if we go sock 12, we can push to the end, otherwise we charge this lap and then we can do single lap discharge at the end.

And if we can go scenario 6, scenario 6 and SOC 4.

Okay, so we've got 8 seconds to Esteban behind. We're good on time, so we'll get one more lap.

How much time do I have until red? We've got over 30 seconds.

So, plenty of time. Seven seconds to Esteban behind. We'll go recharge off and let's go.

Yeah, I lost some grip on this lap. I don't know if it's a bit more rain or... Okay, yes, we've seen a bit more rain. So let's go around, take the chequered flag, and then we'll go to the grid for a start.

And let's go recharge on. Recharge on, so we're going to the grid.

And if we can go scenario 3. Scenario 3 and sock 6.

So we'd like scenario 3. Yeah, just got to be on the straight. No problem mate.

Alright, so for the start we'd like to do it on the left-hand side again. We'll do three burnouts this time out of turn 14. Then we'd like a static bind point learn on the grid and a second gear start.

Ok, Pierre, so we're going to box this lap. Let's box this lap for a practice pitstop.

And as the guys push you through, if you can turn to the left a bit, please turn to the left.
