Daniel Ricciardo
12:54:40
Radio check.
12:57:55
Understood.
13:00:33
Okay, I'm going to click overtake until you blow after that, if you have a window.
13:00:53
OK, the cars are pushing on like yesterday. That was one shallow compared to the target. Good work on your bikes.
13:01:27
Okay, good job. Keep up the braking where you can.
13:01:39
OK, brakes are really good. Good job.
13:01:47
Offset 2.
13:01:55
One tyre warming on the standard one. One time tyre warming. Mode 3 when you stop.
13:02:04
Click of attack. One tyre warming up.
13:02:25
Make sure we don't come to a full stop, please.
13:02:40
1-3 for the start.
13:03:05
Okay, last car coming into his position now.
13:04:13
All good on tyres. All good on tyres.
13:04:22
When you can, mode 6.
13:04:38
OK, let's keep this. We need to get a position. Hulkenberg moved so much, braking to turn 3.
13:04:51
Okay, understood. Fight hard, please. Let's get back up.
13:05:50
Mode 8 when you can, so we keep the margin. Let's move forward.
13:07:01
Configure offset one click forward. Behind you is Yuki, head gas is seven tenths.
13:07:32
Okay, Gasly, it's close to lose the DRS. Keep the pressure on.
13:08:12
Back to hip three. Back to hip three.
13:08:25
On that Gasly, 9 tenths.
13:09:23
Only place compared to Gasly is exit turn 4, minimum speed turn 6.
13:09:40
That's it.
13:10:34
And we are in a very good place on tyres. Very good place on tyres. No concern.
13:11:48
Yeah, everything's stable. Bit more front limitation at the moment.
13:11:58
We can go straight 2 for the high speed. Diff exit 3.
13:12:45
Understeer.
13:13:00
OK, let's make sure we stay close to those cars.
13:13:12
Can you repeat? Make sure you stay close to the cars ahead.
13:14:53
Box, box.
13:15:27
Consider push the column on any device. Hold the brakes. Maximize everything.
13:15:42
No concern on tyres. Maximise everything. We'll be three seconds away from Flochlear pit exit.
13:15:56
Consider pushing the column for a lap run.
13:16:23
Hulkenberg is boxing.
13:16:30
Push hard. Push hard.
13:16:41
Fighting Hulkenberg with a good push hard.
13:16:51
Pressure on hold, overtake.
13:17:07
OK, Daniel, we lost a bit too much time to Magnussen. Let's catch up, please. 1.88.
13:17:19
Let's go fight those cars. Magnussen 1.6. And we are still looking at the Alpine.
13:18:15
Offset one click rearward.
13:18:30
Rearward, Daniel. Consider rearward offset. We have margin.
13:18:46
Alonso, 2.8 behind you.
13:19:15
Mode 6. Strat 1. Currently in 2.
13:19:26
Currently ahead of the Alpine, but we keep the pressure on. Not sure what they are going to do.
13:19:33
Magnussen 1.60.
13:19:44
That's it.
13:20:26
The balance is very similar. Still front limited at the moment. Ok, we are in a good place with the previous set. That's not a bad thing.
13:20:39
Alonso, you did 11.4, your lap time 11.5.
13:20:45
The Haas is doing 11-0.
13:20:54
On main differential to the house is turn 9 and turn 10. They are currently 3 to 4 tenths faster.
13:21:37
And for reference, Alpine and Yuki who stayed out are doing low 1.12. Currently 7 tenths slower.
13:21:49
OK, Daniel, that was better, but they are still pulling away a couple of tenths. Magnussen, 2-8.
13:22:06
I'll be thinking about switches and if we can do anything to help you. Keep us posted.
13:22:21
Hard set.
13:23:01
OK, Daniel, last lap, still turn 9, turn 10, mid to exit. Under two tenths faster. Yep, there it's understeer.
13:23:31
Consider to try to pull the goal in the last two corners. Let's do the switches.
13:23:46
And consider to sacrifice a little bit of entry speed to help turn 10. Sacrifice a bit entry turn 9.
13:24:03
Alonso is now 1.7 behind. The two cars are standing behind the sober ahead of you.
13:24:13
Alonso, last lap was one tenth faster.
13:24:18
Sauber, 2.8 ahead, fighting with us.
13:24:29
OK, Zhou is very slow and they are going through it very quickly. We need to do the same.
13:24:59
And Zhou is one second slower. We can't waste any time.
13:25:24
Battery is good. Consider one click forward on the offset. We have a bit more rear locking now.
13:26:25
OK, we need to make it work now, Daniel. We are wasting too much time. Yeah, I didn't have DRS.
13:26:52
Alonso close behind now. He's close to your DRS. Head down, focus on the front.
13:27:23
Gasly in the pitlane, but he will be behind you.
13:27:35
Ok Daniel, so we have Ocon 5 behind. Now we focus on clean laps on pace.
13:27:49
If you need rotation in the high speed, we can keep using pull toggle. Turn 6, turn 9, we leave it to you.
13:28:07
On Alonso has gone DRS now. Valtteri is in a good place.
13:28:35
Close to Perez pit exit.
13:28:48
Click the VATEC.
13:29:31
OK, let's try to use this DRS to pull out of the field.
13:30:00
On Alonso is one behind, close to DRS. Nine tenths behind now.
13:30:27
Ok Daniel, all the cars are pitted. Currently P10.
13:31:12
OK, Hulkenberg is starting to drop back 11.9 last two laps. We are five tenths faster.
13:31:22
I'll remind you on your pull to go if you need. I'll leave it to you.
13:32:23
I don't know where the biggest of tailwind in turn 3. I'm braking a little late in turn 3. No problem on the track.
13:32:34
Magnussen 1.6 on his going slow.
13:32:52
Continue down mode 8 to stay at the top of the battery on can-defence.
13:33:36
Magnussen 1.4.
13:33:44
We are faster than Magnussen everywhere. Fighting Magnussen for P9. Alonso will have a 10 second time penalty.
13:34:31
We have the 12 pin coming back. Ocon, 2.5 behind you. Let's try to catch that DRS of Magnussen.
13:35:59
OK, Magnussen 1.3 and Ocon is directly behind Alonso now.
13:37:22
Ok, just missing a couple of tenths and there is a fight behind you between Ocon and Alonso.
13:38:21
OK, Daniel, it's just on 6-7. Magnussen able to pull away a little bit every time. He's doing a good job.
13:38:33
Yeah, I think that's definitely our weakest. Also hard in traffic.
13:38:50
We have a remainder of the pitlane.
13:39:19
We are very, very close for the DRS. Let's keep pushing.
13:40:45
Okay, situation is stable. Daniel Bianchi with Alonso on post Alpine.
13:41:16
You're doing the same pace as Hulkenberg in Friere. You just need to get Magnussen DRS.
13:41:57
On Daniel we see more temperature on the other car than 6-7. Absolutely no concern on tyres. You can push more on tyres than 6-7.
13:42:09
Getting everything I can out of it at the moment.
13:43:40
On Magnussen, one tenth faster, on top.
13:44:20
Consider entry 9 for low speed stability.
13:44:31
Okay, that's Ocon 1.5 behind. Head down. Let's try to catch Magnussen again.
13:45:21
Yeah, it's really hard to read, because turn 6 lots of understeer, but 7 very, very neutral.
13:45:32
OK, understood. Maximum pace now. Focus on clean lap, maximum pace. We need to catch Magnussen, protect against Ocon.
13:45:43
Mode 6.
13:46:56
Okay, it was Iso to Magnussen. I'll knock on the hand four tenths faster.
13:47:28
That's it.
13:47:41
Box or opposite Magnussen. Box, box or opposite Magnussen.
13:48:00
Pitlane. Copy. Let's maximise everything. We try to maximise the start of the stint under the manage.
13:48:16
Push to go long.
13:48:29
Straight 3 when you can. One step up.
13:48:44
OK, Daniel, clean laps on pace. We maximise the frayer and then we manage to the flag.
13:48:58
Magnussen boxing. Fighting Magnussen detected.
13:49:13
Fighting Magnussen with exit. Press on hold overtake.
13:50:24
Close to Hulkenberg detected.
13:50:49
Ok Daniel, let's try to use the DRS and let's try to get by if we can, fighting for P9.
13:51:59
OK, Daniel, I'll leave you alone for a few laps. I'll leave you in focus. Head down.
13:53:28
Full toggle turn 9 available.
13:54:40
Gasly 8 seconds behind on medium.
13:55:20
Strat 2 for performance. Currently in 1. Strat 2.
13:55:32
OK, General. On a steep turn, 6-7, go copy on the limitations. Copy on the limitations.
13:55:47
I'm going to skip around the house so I don't go too far. Alpine 7.2 behind.
13:56:32
We have Norris 3 behind, I will keep you posted. On heads up, Leclerc is 4 behind, so Gasly will have to overtake Leclerc before us.
13:56:44
Understeer.
13:57:00
OK, Daniel, we lost five tenths to the hazard. Last lap.
13:57:41
OK, I know. It's 1.10 braking turn 1 and 2.10 turn 9.10.
13:58:09
And consider back to straight 2. Currently in 3.
13:58:54
OK, Norris is 2.2 behind and Leclerc is directly behind him. Leclerc is our ace.
13:59:05
They are currently four tenths faster. If we have a bit of pace, we need to use it. They are four tenths faster. Pass on Leclerc.
13:59:22
So, clean laps at turn...
14:00:16
That was a very good lap, Daniel. Let's keep trying to match Norris on its headliners.
14:00:33
Wind intensity decreased another step. It's only 5 kph now.
14:01:25
When you can, back to strat 1, currently in 2.
14:01:44
OK, you're doing a good pace. Let's keep there, please. We are keeping the gap to Norris.
14:02:25
Behind Norris is Leclerc on both alpines, so it's crucial we keep that gap to Norris and avoid the blue flag. You're doing a good job.
14:03:36
OK, Lando Norris has pitted. Gasly is 3.5. You are three tenths faster than Magnussen.
14:03:48
Gasly 3.5 on medium. Magnussen 2.5 ahead. You're faster than him. Let's cut to DRS.
14:04:32
Perez in the pitlane. He will be one second ahead of your pit exit.
14:05:01
OK, that's it.
14:06:10
Battery is good. We can move to mode 8 if we want to keep the margin. Currently P9.
14:06:57
Gasly 1.3 behind, currently P10.
14:07:09
Back in the rhythm. Back in the rhythm. Just clean laps to the end now. Gasly was doing mid 1.10. We can match him.
14:07:21
On turn 6, 7 was better before traffic. Turn 6, 7 was better. We do the same again.
14:08:21
OK, Gasly, just about 10 to get the DRS. We've got the top speed. We can hold on to that.
14:08:33
17 laps to go. Currently pit end.
14:09:32
Consider offset 4 to help stability. One click forward.
14:10:53
Good lap, Daniel. We have some blue flags coming which are going to help us in around five laps from now.
14:11:53
Consider mode 8 if you want to help yourself with the battery management.
14:12:23
Strat 2 for performance. Strat 2 when you can.
14:13:05
That's 3-2-4 lap for the blue flag. 3-2-4 lap for the blue flag. They will help us.
14:14:15
Okay, we are catching Magnussen. He's two seconds ahead now.
14:14:27
Only we're four tenths faster than Magnussen. Good lap, Daniel.
14:15:27
Magnussen 1.5, almost there.
14:16:36
And it's a couple of laps to the blue flag and it's Max and Norris fighting each other.
14:16:47
Only two tenths to the DRS. Let's get him. B9. B9 to get him. Two tenths.
14:17:48
Consider push-throttle if you need stability, turn 6 or turn 3. I'll leave it to you.
14:18:00
Gasly has locked the DRS. We focus on Magnussen now. I'll keep you posted on Max.
14:18:58
OK. No more blue flags expected. Strat 1. Back to Strat 1 when you can.
14:19:09
OK, Norris is very slow. They are both very slow. They touch each other. Head down to the flag.
14:19:28
Magnussen 1.6.
14:20:12
Six more laps. Six more laps. Currently P9.
14:20:22
If you need stability in turn 6, consider straight 7, straight 7, 12 turn 6.
14:20:40
OK, Daniel, head down to the flag. Let's see what we can do with Magnussen. VSC, charge on.
14:21:02
Make sure you stay close to zero, please. Make sure you stay close to zero. We have a fight to get to the end.
14:21:11
Do you think it will be long? We don't know. We don't know at the moment. We don't know the reason.
14:21:21
Mode 5 in the background.
14:21:35
BSC ending, charge off.
14:21:51
Magnussen 1.5.
14:22:47
Form or laps? I let you race to the flag Daniel. I let you focus to the flag. Form or laps?
14:23:15
Back to mode 6, currently in 5.
14:23:59
And we're missing one tenth from Magnussen, George.
14:26:19
Two more laps. Strat 2 for performance. Two more laps.
14:26:31
Fighting Magnussen for P8.
14:27:31
One more lap. One more lap. Overtake available. All in.
14:28:49
Carjone, fail 84.
14:29:00
Sorry, I feel bad I pushed you so hard today, Daniel, but good job. Good job. It was not an easy car this weekend and you made the maximum out of it, so you should be pleased with yourself. Thank you. On the story for turn 6-7, we'll keep working on it to give you more in the next one.
14:29:24
All good, I think. Everything is understood. I was trying my best, so if there wasn't much communication, I was fully occupied.
14:29:43
Yeah, and I think you got the pace when we needed it with Norris, which helped us a lot. That's really what guaranteed the point there. So very good management.
14:29:57
Obviously, so we've got the Haas well in the points, but we'll get back there. So we've got Russell, Piastri and Sainz in the top three. Obviously Max and Norris had a bit of a touch in turn 3 and had to box. Hamilton is in P4. Max finished in P5. Norris retired. Hulkenberg is in P6. Perez in P7. Didn't manage to overtake him to the end. Magnussen in P8, obviously. And the happy ender is Gasly.
14:30:31
When you stop the car at the bridge, it's going to be P1, wait for the dash, P0.
14:30:40
Ok mate, once again, a lot of hard work has gone into the car and into everything this weekend. So, good damage imitation. I know we want to be in front of the house, but we are back in the game. Good job.
14:30:57
Yep, yeah, understood. I think it was a very, very busy weekend. So, yeah, I think to finish and get some points, as you say, damage limitation. So, yeah, I guess we'll keep working, but I think also relatively proud of the work, so thank you. Yeah, to you, mate. Do you mind if we stay 9 o'clock tomorrow?
14:31:28
Yep, perfect. Thank you.
