OK, radio check Nico, it's Hamilton ahead on hard.

Radio good? Yep, loud and clear. Alonso behind on medium.

OK, we can go K2 plus, K2 plus. GX OK or not? Yeah, GX 3.

You can go Spark 2 on the main straight and remember mode push, mode push.

Box is set up for the launch. As planned. Copy that. First pushing, Piastri 4 behind, Leclerc 11.

Piastri, three behind, pushing.

Piastri, two behind, pushing.

KPS, you're coming now. After him, Leclerc, 7 behind.

Okay, box now, Nico, box now. Leclerc 3 behind Perez 7.

Let's hold a little bit, we'll drop some temp. Copy that.

OK, watch for Norris. He's pushing. He's in turn 1. Should be clear.

OK, first pushing will be Ocon, 13 behind.

We can go SOC 1 and then we get one lap in SPARC 1. You can decide when to use it. Ocon 7 behind.

There's four cars going into turn 9 that are on back-off laps. Hopefully they'll clear. Watch for Ocon 3 behind pushing. Gasly 16.

Ocon, 1.5. After him, 13 second gap. And last corner looks OK.

It's all clear to start a lap.

Remember, charge off mode push.

Russell three behind starting a push and then Zhou six.

Russell 2-1.

Okay, first bushing is actually Alonso, 8 behind.

OK, Norris 7 behind, pushing. I think we're missing quite a bit of car balance. So I would like to come in and chuck some on. Copy that, so we'll box for a flap adjust. Norris 3 behind pushing, Ricciardo 6.

Next pushing Ricciardo, 5. Albon, 8.

Ricciardo 3.0 behind.

Put on 0.7, something like that. OK, watch for Ricciardo, then Albon, two behind pushing and copy on the flap. Sargeant five behind pushing, Albon, then Sargeant.

Box now, Nico. And again, you just told me to please have a tap. Yeah, copy that, Nico. Box now.

First pushing will be Stroll, 6 behind. Sainz in turn 1 just finished a push.

Losses to Kevin. Entry and apex of 1 and apex 7 and 9.

Not sure what Verstappen's doing. Yeah, he's backed off, so you're okay behind and you have those three cars ahead are all in sync with you, so you have to make a gap.

First pushing is Kevin, 17 behind.

OK, so that's Leclerc-Piastri ahead. They're both probably going to start a lap.

OK, behind.

OK, remember, charge off mode, push, gap to Piastri is 3, 4, 5. OK, behind.

Charge on. First pushing Ocon 4 behind. Oh, he's big energy derates. Exit at the last corner. Copy that. I'll check Ocon 1.5.

First person Gasly 8 behind.

Gasly 5 behind and then Stroll 15 pushing.

Gasly 2-1.

OK, Nico. Multifunction A, QR10. QR10 will help that D-rate. Stroll 8 behind, pushing. So, do you want to do double back-off or drive-through?

Okay, Tsunoda for Tsunoda 3.

That's Tsunoda there. Next is Alonso 9. What do you want to do, Nico? Double, yeah, I think. Copy that. Everyone is doing double, I guess. Yeah, everyone on the medium zone, anyway. Okay, Alonso 4 behind finishing a push. Watch for Alonso.

Okay, Alonso, two behind finishing.

Those are about 0.3 each. Otherwise, it's 0.3 total. Sorry. Sainz 7 behind, pushing.

Signs 1.

Suggest Func 2 for 678910.

OK, just make sure you get some brake temp. Kevin, 8 behind.

In front. It's Alonso and Tsunoda close together. 4 ahead. And then I don't know what they're doing. Kevin, 4 behind pushing. Kevin's the only pushing car. 3, 2, after Kevin you can go.

OK, remember about push. OK to go.

B-Bal offset plus one.

I turn it into one. There's no front end at all.

Next pushing Verstappen, 5 behind on box now, Nico, box now. I aborted. I aborted but I didn't know that Ferrari is on the lap. Yeah.

All these crybabies here with the traffic.

No transcript available

B-Bal offset plus one.

Red flag, Nico. Red flag. Slow down. Get plus positive on delta time. Verstappen stopped on the main straight.

Okay, so we'll box into this lap.

Box now, Nico, box now.

It should restart quickly, Nico. They're just trying to push Verstappen back to the pitlane.

Yeah, copy. I think it's OK.

OK, it's almost ready to go green.

OK, 45 seconds, Nico.

How many more laps are we going to do or get in? I would say four or five more times. Four times maybe.

OK, should be green very soon.

Cars are still leaving pitlane. Looks like everyone's still on their extended run tyre. So it should be everyone doing continuous running.

I think we'll do more like six or seven laps, Nico. I'll keep you updated.

So we'll do four or five times, Nico.

Try left toggle for turn 4.

And Funk 2 for turn 9 and 10.

Two or three more times, please reduce management now.

Two more timed.

Fuse DRS next lap.

Starting last lap.

Okay, we'll box the end of this lap. Kevin's testing DRS now behind.

I spoiled up button, up button.

Box now, Nico. Box now.

The brakes feel very kind of numb at low brake pressure. Not good at all.

OK. Noted. We will investigate.

Okay, you're in sync with Albon behind. Only back-off car is Sargeant 7 ahead on a back-off. Hamilton still on his long run. He's six seconds behind on a push lap. He's still on long run, so I guess we'll have to just make a gap to him. He's six behind. Hamilton four behind. Okay, Hamilton two one. His lap time is 1.09. So other than Hamilton you're okay ahead. Gap to Hamilton is four.

Hamilton, 7 ahead. Remember, boat push. Gap is 8, 9, 10, 11.

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

Okay, charge on Alonso, 1.5, pushing.

Next, Sargeant 5 behind pushing.

Sargeant 3. Sargeant 1 pushing. Bottas 4 behind pushing. Bottas 3. Bottas 2. 1 after Bottas is OK for a while.

Okay, basically same lap time as Kevin. You pushed the entry of 3. Pretty much. Copy. Yeah, yeah. I think I realised that. Copy.

So there's four and a half minutes left, so you can either just do double cool or you could drive through the pitlane. Perez behind outlap. First pushing behind is Verstappen, 18.

OK, correction, Albon 20 behind. Do you want to drive through pitlane or just do standard double cool? Yeah, back up pitlane. Copy that.

OK, box now, Nico, box now.

We do have time to stop in the box, if you want to stop in the box. Nobody behind? Albon, 8 behind, pushing.

Okay, stop in the box. 10-20 seconds. Yeah, copy that.

We suggest to keep shape for everywhere.

Perez ahead is on his first back off. Just finished a lap. No one pushing behind.

So Leclerc and Perez ahead are both on a Leclerc outlap. Perez first back off so he probably won't be pushing. Just need to build up some more brake temp this time.

First pushing Norris 6 behind, Hamilton 13 behind.

Norris 3, pushing.

Where? No pushing. He aborted. He aborted. Hamilton 8 behind. Gap ahead is good. 6-7 is your main time loss to Kevin and others. OK behind. Gap ahead is all OK.

Hemp charge off, mode push.

Hamilton ahead is high fuel, so go now.

Checkered flag. Hamilton is 3.5 behind, so he's on sustained running. He may keep pushing. We'll go around to take the start. What are you talking about before, just before the lap? Main low is 6.7.

That's the feedback I have.

Still, turn 3 is not good and not clean at all. There's quite a bit of lap time there, a couple of tenths.

Copy that, Nico.

Okay, you can go to SOC 6 and SP2. We'll do a start on the left-hand side.

Mode slow, two burnouts, start on the left hand side, mode RS.

Can you do CSL 6, 6th gear on this straight, please? CSL 6.

Okay, press in button and we'll box into this lap for practice pitstop.

Box now, Nico. Box now. Practice pitstop.

How long till Kevin is coming? 30 seconds.
