Esteban Ocon
14:05:29
That won't be much going around.
14:05:38
Nobody on slow laps? The only car out there at the moment is Tsunoda. He's already on the start-finish straight on a slow. Magic correction, Tsunoda's boxed, so no.
14:05:52
Stroll pitting now. Only can't track is Perez at 12. He will be pushing this time. No risk of cars on slow laps.
14:06:07
Okay, so we can make that gap. We've got Perez, exit 14 now on a time lap. He's laying through.
14:06:18
Perez coming through now. Good gap. Normal outlap, please.
14:06:41
OK, so happy to sink gears down to turn 10. Watch for Albon. Time lap behind four seconds. He's the only car pushing at the moment behind. Albon 2.5.
14:06:58
Car behind Bottas is out lap.
14:07:03
So we can go recharge off, down to turn 10. Sync it.
14:07:27
Brake free. Only Alonso to go.
14:07:33
Okay, I have to push the last couple of corners. Clear track ahead.
14:07:54
Let's push.
14:09:09
Okay, so we are boxing now. Car behind Bottas. Just finished a time lap. We will have Tsunoda coming through. Pushing now. Six seconds.
14:09:26
Okay, so P9 currently 16 cars at times. Watch for Tsunoda, four seconds.
14:09:35
Tsunoda three times up, clear behind him.
14:09:51
OK, Piers, first lap 13.0 for info, 13.0. There's a clear traffic behind at the moment. We are boxing now.
14:10:12
Okay, so we will be watching for the waybridge lights on the way. Clear of traffic behind.
14:10:25
Let's do an in. Watch for the way we try stopping on the marks and switching off.
14:10:47
Okay, Esteban, so what do you think for balance? Yeah, keep the same. Yeah, man, understood. Getting a good chunk to Pierre, turn 1 and 2. Lewis in a couple of places, 5, a little bit apex of 10. And then turn 12. We'll see the overlay in a moment. How were the tyres in terms of readiness? Yeah, they were good and more consistent. Yeah, I like it.
14:14:16
OK, mate. Only car on track at the moment is Albon, turn 5 on a push lap.
14:14:22
So no one protects it in a good bot here.
14:14:30
Happy to make a clear pit exit.
14:15:31
Okay, so we're going to have a fairly clear track at the end of this lap, so we can push the last few corners.
14:15:41
Go a little more cautious before that. Let's go brake 3 now, clear of traffic behind.
14:15:51
Connect tracks all yours. Good drive, good to go.
14:17:29
OK, recharge on and box. Stay negative on that delta. P7 at the moment for that time.
14:18:00
OK, so we've got Stroll pushing behind 5 seconds. A couple of cars coming through this lap.
14:18:10
And we're safe and through. Stroll three seconds behind timed.
14:18:22
Stroll, two seconds. Timed, nine second gap behind it.
14:18:32
Okay, we are boxing now, watching for the weightbridge lights on the way in.
14:18:43
Tsunoda, five seconds, timed boxing now.
14:19:01
Still running. Stopping outside the front of the garage and switching off.
14:19:11
Okay, so looking like P11 in that session. Pierre just pivoted on his second lap, less than half a tenth in it. I'll show you the overlay. I believe it's in the last sector. Copy.
14:29:01
No cars on track. Nice, clean run.
14:29:07
Everyone's following us out.
14:29:31
Cars behind Perez and then Pierre.
14:30:22
Gas man, let's go, brake free.
14:30:29
Okay, just need to stay within the safety car limit. Last couple of corners, we're good to go.
14:32:04
Watch Leclerc starting a time lap now, two and a half behind.
14:32:10
Car behind him, Perez, he's just finished a timed lap. So Perez, four seconds back, slow lap now. Next car pushing will be Piastri, 9 behind him.
14:32:23
Turn 10 looked a bit better without that close modifier to us, what do you think? Yeah, agreed. Yeah, that's good. Alright, Piastri, six seconds time.
14:32:37
Piastri, five seconds time.
14:32:49
OK, next car pushing behind him, Sainz, about 8 seconds back. Pierre's first lap 12.2, 12.2. Main time to gain apex turn 5 and speed through the last couple of corners. Looks like maybe he had a bit of a tow there.
14:33:11
Sainz, three seconds timed. We are boxing now.
14:33:21
Okay, clear behind Sainz. If it's why I'm flat out, that's been the case for a long time, so let me know what it is. Yeah, we think it's a tow looking at it. We're boxing now.
14:33:34
Watch for the waybridge lights on the way and stop outside the front of the garage.
14:33:39
Weybridge, Weybridge, Weybridge.
14:33:46
OK, mate. So, go to P1 once you've stopped. And as ever, don't go to P2 until you're pushed clear of the scales. We've got plenty of time.
14:36:55
Okay, my only car on track at the moment is Stroll at turn 12. He went early, he'll be on an in-lap this time. Zhou in front, Hulkenberg behind. Stroll at 13. Stroll will be on an in-lap next time.
14:37:13
Let's go brake 5, please. There's Stroll four seconds behind. He's just finished a time.
14:37:22
Let's just stick to our normal lap at this point.
14:37:43
No changes to outlap procedure. Same as before.
14:37:55
Okay, my cutoff, we think, just under 12.0.
14:38:10
Ok, good gap ahead, only two cars to go. No traffic behind.
14:38:20
Let's go, brake 3, brake 3. Track ahead is clear.
14:38:33
Just within the limit. We're good to go.
14:38:50
Everything you've got, let's push.
14:40:02
OK mate, recharge on and box. Recharge on and box.
14:40:10
Okay, so we're one of the first out. Let you know where we finish up. We are P7 at the moment. A lot of cars still to finish laps. Clear of traffic behind.
14:40:21
Hulkenberg behind on an in-lap now.
14:40:36
Okay, so boxing now. P9 at the moment. Pierre's lap 12.08. 12.08, so three hundredths faster.
14:41:02
OK, so we are safe and through. Well done. OK, so we are boxing now. Boxing now. Copy that, good job. OK, mate, so just got a decision on tyres to make now. Have a think about balance, please. Think about both new and used sets.
14:41:21
We need to try and add a little bit if possible. Understood.
14:41:29
Watch for the white bridge lights on the way in, as before.
14:49:21
Okay, so you'll be clear pit exit.
14:49:33
Okay, so Sainz and Piastri, the car's behind. Make that gap, same outlap procedure.
14:50:04
Okay, very clear track ahead. So Verstappen, the only car. We've got Perez starting a time lap now on the start-finish straight.
14:50:39
So Perez is at turn 5 now.
14:50:45
Plenty of space. Perez about 9 to 10 seconds behind.
14:50:51
Clear track ahead. Let's focus on that exit 14.
14:50:57
Brake 3. Be good. Perez six seconds back. Clear track ahead. It's all yours.
14:52:33
OK, watch for Hamilton starting a time. And Russell the same. So, Russell two cars back. He's pushing now.
14:52:44
Okay, and we're clear there. All cars behind slow laps now and we are boxing. Yeah, they didn't help with traffic down, don't worry. No, they did not. It's okay mate, just a warm-up run.
14:53:00
How is the balance on that U-set?
14:53:06
Yeah, struggling a bit more with the grip in lower speed. Is that from the rear? No, yeah. No more understeer. It's similar in terms of balance. That tells us that's the way to go probably. Yeah, understood.
14:53:27
Okay, mate, so we're box now, watching for the waybridge lights on the way in. Just staying negative on that delta. Just need to think about the flap for the new set.
14:53:39
So, Pierre's time a 12.85 on the used.
14:53:45
So, it's just a warm-up run.
14:54:01
OK, Box now. Watch for the Weybridge lights on the way in.
14:54:13
Okay, stopping outside the front of the garage.
14:54:38
OK, so what do you think on flap? Do you think we can maybe sneak in a little more? Yeah.
14:56:53
OK, no-one on track.
14:56:58
And we're third in the queue. Same outlap, please. Make that gap to Piastri. No rush.
14:57:11
Still no rush. Make the gap.
14:57:28
Same outlaps before tight ends. Perfectly on target, leaving the box.
14:57:50
Okay, mate, so we're looking for minus four to minus five on the dash.
14:58:21
OK, so let's go brake 3 now.
14:58:26
So, we need to maximise 14 at this point.
14:58:37
OK, tracks are yours. Let's go.
15:00:03
OK, watch Norris, stalling in time, behind.
15:00:07
OK, next car back. Hamilton seven, starting a timed. Him and Russell coming through now. Hamilton four seconds, three, and then Russell three seconds behind him.
15:00:20
Russell, two and a half, timed. OK, recharge on, clear behind. Sainz on a slow lap.
15:00:33
OK mate, so we'll see where we are shortly.
15:00:42
Okay, so staying negative on the delta and boxing now going into Parc fermé.
15:01:02
Okay, so nice and steady on the way, please. Maximum fuel saving.
15:01:27
OK, so I'm boxing now.
15:01:31
Okay, so Pierre managed an 11.85, which puts him currently P7 and us P9. The car between us is Perez with his penalty, so that will put us P8 as it stands for tomorrow.
15:01:53
Okay, well done. I can do a lot from P8.
15:02:06
OK mate, so normal switch-off procedure.
15:02:15
Okay, well done. Easy session now.
15:02:19
I will see you back in the office.
