Both Mercedes behind in the pitlane are on hards.

McLaren has got a rake on. He's fifth or sixth in the queue. Also on hard tyres with a rake. There's a car ahead of you got a rake, can you see? Yes. OK, copy. So we can just leave a bit of a gap here. There's 20 seconds till green light.

So gap to Bottas' head is good. Magnussen's three and a half behind, so you're good there. And out of turn 7, out of turn 7 is limited to 5th gear. That's 200 kph, so limited to 5th gear.

And then it will be limiter 3 out of 9. Limiter 3 out of 7.9. That's 6th gear, 250 kph.

OK, that's all good, so stay on track. Stay on track.

OK, 7th gear is good. You're all clear behind. 7th gear. 280.

OK, so Magnussen starting at 6 behind. I'll keep an eye on him. Ahead of Leclerc, there is a good gap.

So you're all good behind. Magnussen is still 4 behind. This is a good gap. We'll do the same limits as again.

Magnussen is pushing. He's three behind, but you're okay. And there'll be limited to two out of turn 7. Limited to fifth gear. Magnussen is still three behind.

OK, that'll be limited to 3, 6th or 7th this time. Limited to 3, 6th or 7th. And then Magnussen is 1.8 behind.

Russell is pushing 2.5 here.

Russell, two behind pushing and boxed up.

Just stop and find the garage, Fernando.

It's the same procedure again.

Track is clear. Sainz is just coming. He should be going to a cool. So Sainz has done two in a row on the hard. I expect he'll go to cool.

The Sainz is three behind. I'll keep an eye.

Yeah, Sykes is backed off, so you're all clear behind. This is a good gap.

And that'll be limited to fifth gear out of seven. Limited to fifth gear. You're all clear behind.

And then limiter 3. Out of turn on limiter 3.

OK, so you're back in Limiter 1. That's good. And stay on track. Stay on track. You're all clear behind.

We're still all clear behind. There's Zhou on a slow lap 6 ahead, so if you catch him, there's a 7 second gap ahead of him, or we'll just make a gap to him for our limiters. You're all clear behind.

OK, yeah, so you've got Russell on a slow lap. Nine ahead, so this is good. He's still all clear behind. And limited two out of seven. Limited two.

That's a good gap. In and out of 9, it's limiter 3.

That's all good data so we can box this lap. Box, box. You're clear behind. No-one pushing behind.

So we'll just stop in front of the garage, Fernando.

The track is clear, you can push on the car just to dry the flow of his, but just steady through 3.

You can go to tyre green, DRS, tyre green, DRS. You're all clear behind. A good brake there. That's good. Brake clamps look good. Magnussen is 9 ahead. He's got no traffic ahead, so he's going to start. You're all clear behind. Happy to take a bit more gap to Magnussen. He's 10 ahead and it'll be go 1. Go 1 after turn 13.

So Bottas will be pushing seven seconds back. Have a big call for the tyres. It's only Bottas, he's coming past five now. Three, two, he's there. After him it's all clear.

There's nobody behind, you're all OK behind.

So you're still all clear behind, all clear.

So we'll just take a good break into 9 and 10. We're still happy to cool the tyres. You're all clear behind.

Looking clear ahead as well. All clear ahead and behind.

We'll do the same again. Max Kuhl, you're all clear behind. First one starting up is Russell. He's currently 18 behind you. He is on his second set of tyres, which is a medium.

Russell 14 coming through the last corner now.

Russell six behind starting a lap and Sainz is also on his second set of tyres starting lap 14 behind you. Russell three, two, he's there. So the car behind you is Albon on an out lap and then Sainz is pushing eight seconds back.

So Sainz is past 3 behind. Sainz 2. 1.5 to him, it's clear.

So you're clear now until Perez 25 seconds back.

So we've got Perez 16 behind pushing and then you're clear.

You can consider shape 2 if you want a bit less front locking for the whole lap. Shape 2. Perez is 7 behind. Pushing.

He's on a push lap. Yeah, Perez is pushing. Yeah, slide behind. He's the only one pushing. Perez 4 behind. And he ought to cool down, you think? I think so, yeah. Yep, he's on his soft tyre. He'll definitely cool.

So it should be clear behind us, it should be in phase.

Tsunoda's coming quite quick, so just watch Tsunoda. Yeah, he's pushing, that's OK. You're all clear after him. All clear. So we can go for one more push, Fernando. Go for one more push.

We are all clear behind, happy to go slow.

Everyone behind is slow.

Yeah, I've got Sargeant on an outlap, whether he tries to rush past. He's on his soft tyre.

Ricciardo behind you is going to double-cool.

Car behind is Sargeant on an outlap.

One good braking to 10.

OK, so ahead you've got Albon. He's 10 ahead of you.

Perez is pushing, but he's on an in-lap. Sorry, Perez is on an in-lap, but he might push past you. He's definitely coming in. Albon ahead is Box. You're all clear ahead. It'll be go on.

Simbox. Let's just do the inlaps and I'm going to do no DRS, so do the inlap with no DRS, please. I think on the exit kerb. Box, box, box.

Yeah, exit curve in turn 9. There was something flying out of the front wind, so better to check.

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

Track is all clear. Nice and slow on the outlap and definitely slow through the high speed.

OK, so ahead of us we've got a 13-second gap to the first outlap cars. Piastri's first one starting about 26 seconds back. I'll let you know if it's better to let him pass him

Piastri is low fuel pushing, so he'll go into a cool. If he catches you, there's a 10-second gap to Norris, who's a second car, but Norris is high fuel, so you definitely want to stay ahead of Norris. Ahead, you've still got nine seconds to go. There's two to start a lap ahead. Piastri's still 14 seconds back.

So Zhou is going. Now he's 7 ahead. Piastri is still 11 behind. So you're good. Brake temps are all good. Zhou is 8 ahead.

Nice big gap to Zhou. Nine ahead. Go on. Go on.

OK, so we're all clear behind, all clear. I have to do a double cool for him, I think. Double cool. And even through the pits, if you'd like to consider a front wing adjustment. So, all clear behind at the moment. Ricciardo coming out of the pits. I think Ricciardo will be on to a higher fuel run. OK, he might push for past you. He's in a hard time.

First one pushing is Norris, 10 seconds back.

Norris is pushing forward behind on high fuel, blowing through. And then we'll have a multifunction B. Multifunction B. So Norris coming through now. Multifunction B, yellow, OFS, position 6. So yellow, OFS, position 6. Tsunoda's got a slow lap. He might push past you.

OK, that's good. So next one pushing is Verstappen, 7 seconds, 6 seconds left. And then you've got outlap cars, so we can let Verstappen through. Ideally, you keep the outlap behind. But we're going to go for the double quarter. Any flap adjust? Verstappen now 2 behind pushing. No. Negative. Verstappen 1 behind pushing.

The three cars behind you are on outlap. They might push past you. Most people now are going to go to high fuel.

It's Albon pushing, just keep out of the way of him.

And Hamilton is pushing 5 behind. And then Russell is only 2 behind Hamilton. So you've got Hamilton 4 and Russell 6.

It's happy to still go slow here, let those two Mercedes through.

Bottas on his outlap is the car behind. Bottas outlap.

Still cool, these tyres, especially the left.

Sainz will come through. He's four behind. And then you've got 18 seconds back to Perez. You can also let Perez through. So you've got Bottas on an outlap behind you. Sainz is three behind Heifull. So you can let him through now. And Perez 16 seconds back.

You can consider shape 2 for the whole lap if you want to try it. Perez is still 10 seconds back. I want a good brake.

Perez is six behind. He can use all of that gap. Got good brake temp. It'll be go on. Go on.

OK, Bottas is behind you and Perez behind you. After Perez it's OK.

OK, so keep tyres cool.

So we've got Ricciardo 8 behind and Norris 14. After Norris is a good gap. So happy to let those two through. There's an 18 second gap after Norris.

Ricciardo comes through in three seconds.

OK, he's there and Norris is 5 behind.

So, after Norris, there's a 20 second gap. That's our gap. Norris is three behind pushing hard fuel.

So this is our gap. Next one behind is Verstappen, 17 seconds back.

Lance is on a slow lap ahead, same programme as us. He will push or double cool? He's going to push next lap. He will push next lap.

Verstappen is still 10 seconds back.

So Lance's gone now. Verstappen's still six pack. So Verstappen five, it will be go one. Verstappen four, three, two, one.

Good, Lance is 9 ahead.

I'm just looking. If we do a single cool and get into consecutive, we'll get four, maybe five in a row. Yeah, yeah, single cool.

Just consider locking up the switches a bit for the high fuel, or for the consecutive. Piastri pushing three behind, followed by Verstappen.

And we'll go to strat 7 when you can. So Piastri and Verstappen is only 2 behind him. Verstappen close and then you've got a bit of gap.

So, clearest gap is 20 seconds back. So, I'm happy to let a load of cars through on this one. We can get to the back of this train. No, but they will slow down in the last corner, man. So, I'm happy here, I think. Yeah, OK, yeah.

So you've got four seconds back to the cars behind.

So, Berman is two behind pushing. There's three and then there's a four second gap. Yeah, okay, you'll turn me. Whatever you want. Let the three behind and we'll use that four second gap back to Magnussen. So, Albon coming through now. Say ahead of Hamilton, I think. Hamilton's slowed down.

Let Ocon pass. We've got six seconds. Drop back to Sargeant and then we'll start. But I have eight cars in front. I don't know. OK.

Go on. Go on. Go on. Confirmed.

Use DRS if you need to. I think you're OK.

Three more full-time laps.

If we can, we can have a multi-function B.

Multifunction B orange in ignition. P12.

That's chequered flag, chequered flag. Do some cooling and we'll go around for the start. Do some cooling. You've got to run through your form.

Strat 6.

Do the start on the grid. It will be left-hand side, left-hand side.

Two burnouts, two burnouts. Left-hand side, use the K0 button before you start the burnouts.

Check here. Grid box position. Run switch. Race. One bike confined. Back to neutral. First gear and we're watching.

Only minus four.

Push to turn 10.

Just slow down a bit now. Slow down. I want a 10 second gap bigger to Lance and we'll stack the pitstop. Currently Lance is 12 ahead of us. I'd like another 8 seconds.

Box this lap. We will do a pitstop, nice and slow in the pit entry.

And thank you.
