Radio check, can you hear me? Yep. OK. For six minutes, that's the last fire up. After you can do some kind of drop. Remember, second gear, 4-0 target. There's more rain coming. It's starting to rain now.

Alright, let's communicate well but only key information. Yes, agreed. I'm going, I'll let you know what to do in the rain. Remember what we discussed, especially on the first lap. Focus on what you can do. If you're struggling, everyone is struggling, focus on bringing temperatures to drive accordingly. Use your brake, use your tool. And let everybody else make mistakes. We want to stay on track and bring the tyres.

Have they confirmed standing start? FM, currently you are in turn. Confirmed standing start. A bit of rain in the pitlane right now. Level 1.

Radio is super choppy. Copy.

That's from the engineering line, is that better? Yeah, much. Yeah, I was saying you drop when shallow transit at target 40. That would be second gear formation lap.

Again, we don't expect the shower to be more than that level 1 we currently have. Maybe 1.5 but don't expect it to be very high and we think we're on the right tyre.

Can we have TIF exit 7, please? TIF exit 7.

And Logan, that's going to be the swim three-minute mark. I'll let you know what everybody has on tyres on your clutch drop. The drop is OK. The release is too quick, so focus on that.

OK, Logan, I don't have any tyre information at the moment, but you know as soon as I have, it's a bit more than two minutes, and your drops and releases were much better.

So, everybody on inter, Bottas, Magnussen, Hulkenberg on wet. There's some standing water reported turn 2 on the inside, so just have a look on the formation lap, so you know for the start.

And in 10 seconds, you'll have the last fire-up. Once fire-up, pit limiter on and confirm, please. Remember, we want the pit limiter on up to after the timing line. So you have to keep it after the pole position to make sure it's past timing line, please.

Copy that. Let's let him hang.

Confirm pit limiter on.

Confirm. Last one minute.

Okay, 40 seconds. Remember, focus on straight line speed, the formation lap of the tyre temp. I'll feedback you what's happening ahead of you.

20 seconds. Remember, that's a second gear. Target 4-0. Pit limiter up to after pole position at the timing light.

So, good gap ahead to second descent.

Slow at turn 8. I can still gap 2.

Take a slow head.

I'm picking up speed.

Remember, we want speed up to 13, so manage the cars around.

Leclerc slow ahead.

People are stacking up close to 13. Watch out. We confirm 8 burnout. 8 burnout.

And remember, we need second gear, second gear.

And we want plus 2% on target compared to what we achieved, so go 2% more shallow. Second gear, 8 burnouts.

Remember, second gear. OK, you got it. Last car on the grid.

Okay, remember there are some different tyres. Keep working on your tyres. Focus on that.

Go race, please, go race. Go race, please, go race.

Watch out for debris exit turn 2.

Keep doing what you're doing. Good job. Focus on bringing tyres.

Watch out, front lock turn 1.

OK, rejoin and focus on keeping the tyres alive.

Feedback on the front wing. Any damage to report? Front wing's fine.

Just manage brake application rate, how much you press the pedal and how quick you press the pedal. This is still very long. Head down, focus on yourself right now.

Pace is strong, just avoid a mistake on the brake. Pace is strong, mate, OK?

How far back am I?

Zouf, Fisker, head 11.

It's a long race, everything is stupid.

OK, B-B racing, you can bear the pit exit. He's just getting into it. He will struggle with temperature.

That's normal, you can have him, he will struggle with jumps.

You have push and hold available. Use it to overtake Hulkenberg now, please. Exit 10.

We're good to start using wet patches in straight line.

Mode 7, please, mode 7.

I'm going to start using wet patches in straight line, please.

Okay, Logan, start managing slip exit turn 2 and start thinking about what's the best tyre for track condition, please. Regular feedback to us.

I'm still in power right now. Copy, Alex, 29.0.

Okay, head down. Keep driving, no mistake. Sector 1 was poor on this lap. Keep driving, no mistake. The pace is good when you put the lap together, mate. Head down, please.

DRS enabled. You can bear 1.8 to head.

We can have a driver default, please. Driver default. Blue, 0, 4, OK. Blue, 0, 4, OK. Pace is good on this lap. Head down. We compare 1.6. You're catching him, eh?

Okay, we expect more rain in 10 minutes, level 2.

Watch out. Exit slip turn 10.

We expect more rain in 9 minutes. For the moment, let's watch. Exit slip turn 2 and turn 10.

Okay, Mbappé, you have to push all available exits to turn 10.

Sertica window is closed.

Ok, keep your head down, keep your head down. Get back to the pace you had before. You catch the blue and you can have him. He was struggling. Clean laps. Unexpected in six minutes.

Okay, confusing wet patches and straight line. Norris, race leader, four behind.

Fortunate to go 8th down.

Now it's 2 behind. More rain in two minutes.

Norris 1.5 behind.

OK, that's blue flag for Norris after Norris Verstappen, 5 after.

OK, rain expected within the lap or two.

We have enough pace to be safe from Verstappen. It's a question of Zou at the moment.

I'm sorry mate, I... Oh my, sorry.
