OK, Lance, radio check. OK, understood. That's four minutes, the formation lap. Four minutes.

OK, Lance, so just from the pit wall then, so it's two minutes to the start of the formation lap. We've got the tyres. Everyone is on new medium. You've just got Zhou, who is pitlane start. He's on new hard. So everyone on the grid is new medium.

OK, so that's 30 seconds.

Just trying to make a bit of space if we can. We would get some high-speed weaving and a big stop into 1. We can lean on the tyres in 1 as well, if possible.

Start was five under. Five under.

Subtitling made possible by Acorn Media.

It's high speed weaving as much as you can all the way up to 3 and a good stop there. You can do a 50 metre lift before turn 3. Lean on tyres in 3 as well.

Good high-speed weaving all the way to turn 4. A 70m lift before turn 4. And then a good stop. And then make space, exit turn 4.

So, making space now. We want to be able to push through turn 6 and 7. What you did yesterday was good. So, high speed weaving into 6 and then push 6 and 7.

We can do a little lift here just to make some space. Any high-speed weaving is good. And now just stay on the racing line and then some aggressive low-speed scrubbing laps.

It will be two burnouts. Two burnouts.

Got hit from the side.

Copy. We're checking, Lance. Pressure's OK for now.

Car ahead is Bottas. Pressures are okay for now. Let us know how the car feels.

Zhou is three seconds back. He was a pitlane start. He's on hard tyre.

Car ahead, Albon, medium.

That's Carlux okay to us. No damage we can see.

And we suggest brake balance plus two. Brake balance plus two.

We do need third gear in turn 3. That's for PU temps. Third gear, turn 3.

Lance, tyres are still on the way up. We think we need to do more lift and coast when you're not racing. A bit more lift and coast is going to help.

And we think white button turn 3 may help. Try white button turn 3.

Let's try brake balance plus one. Brake balance plus one.

Lance, I'll take some tyre feedback when you can. Tyre feedback.

Yeah, we're just cooking the rears. Just getting them fat quick.

I know you're going to tell me to lift and coast forward and all that, but I don't want to.

Lance, do you think plan B is possible?

Yeah, but we're gonna have to just be slow, but we can try.

Let's try and keep the entry valve on for now.

Let's do brake balance plus one. Brake balance plus one.

And we can use torque 11. That's to help turn 3 into stability. Torque 11.

So we've got two cars of stop behind us.

OK Lance, still thinking plan B. Let's give plan B a go.

Lost DRS.

I have no more tyres.

Copy that, Lance. Let's see how we get on with clear air for now.

So, Lance, all these cars ahead have stopped very early. There's four or five, maybe more that have stopped early. So, let's see how we're getting a clear out. Let's play the long game here.

Keep up the lift in coast. This is the peak temp of the tyre now. It will start to come back to us later. We're doing the same times as the cars ahead.

HPP on.

Slideshow now on lap 15. Lap 15.

Let's just go slightly steadier entry turn 9. So, easier entry turn 9.

We can use second gear at turn 3, Lance, narrowing free air. Second gear at turn 3 if you need.

Let's do strat 7.

What is that snap on exit? That is the most horrible thing ever.

Copy. We'll have a look. Keeping your rhythm. There is no aero damage on the car. Car is OK.

We can try brake balance plus one. Brake balance plus one.

Lance, just a lift and coast reminder. Lift and coast, we need to keep it up.

Slant is just surface temps now. Bulk's on the way down. It's just surface temp management. So lift and coast and slip management, they're the main two things now.

There's nothing coming back to me, huh?

It's getting worse and worse every lap. We can just stay out, I don't mind. We'll do that, we're talking.

So, Lance, we'll box this lap. Box this lap. Let's give it everything now.

Shall we just stay out, Matt? Keep going? What else are we really fighting for? So we can do that at the final stitch. So we're covering Bottas now. This is the right thing to do. So we'll box this lap.

So, we can reset brake balance. Box this lap. We will be racing Bottas.

So tyre green dry on.

OK, it'll be tight at the exit, so use everything you can use your energy for the exit. You'll be racing Bottas.

Bottas is behind. He's on new hard tyre. One lap old hard.

And we'll be fighting Tsunoda at pit exit this lap.

So you'll be racing the Tsunoda pit exit. We can use the late energy.

Brake balance lever plus two. Tsunoda's on hard tyre.

It'll be a similar length stint, Lance. Same stint length again.

So, if we're not racing slowly, we can get back into lift and coast.

So we think Tsunoda will do the same as us. Zhou, ahead of Tsunoda, has not stopped yet, so he'll get out of the way soon.

Zhou is 24 laps ahead.

Okay, good job. Back in your rhythm now.

Lantria slip is quite high from our side, so we're happy to go brake balance plus one.

Rear slip is the main concern for us at the minute. Rear slip the main concern.

So we can try torque 11 if you're unstable at low speeds. Try torque 11.

We can do brake balance plus one if you need. Brake balance plus one.

Lance, tyres will stabilise in another lap or two. Let's just take it steady in turn 9. Easy in turn 9 again.

Lads, we need MFB, PU7, position 5. MFB, PU7, position 5.

Okay, your switches are good. Now on lap 30. This is lap 30.

We need to increase lift and coast into turn 3. So another 10-20 metres lift in turn 3.

So, Albon ahead of Tsunoda is 21 laps hard. I think he's on a different strategy but he might pull Tsunoda back to you.

Lance, we can do brake balance plus one. That's the health service temp, so brake balance plus one.

You are now on lap 35.

What strategy are these guys in front of me on?

So, these cars ahead, we think they're two-stop, but it's a very poor two-stop, okay? So we've got to balance our stints.

So Carhead is now Albon. He's 24 laps hard.

This amount of tweak suggests going back forwards on brake balance and using the yellow button for turn 4.

Suggest using early press energy. Turn 1, early press.

Let's use K0, K0. We're low in the pack now. Good job.

Don't understand why I didn't get DRS again there.

Copy, so Albon has pitted behind, so car behind is Bottas. 20 lap hold hard, same as you.

So, Lance, DRS is all OK. We just weren't in the beacon, so DRS is fine for now. There's no issue. Get back in your rhythm. Lift and coast is good.

So, keep the management under control, Lance, but it won't be too long now. It won't be too long. You're now on lap 42.

And Lance, just let me know about balance. Let me know about balance. Yes, OK. Copy, OK.

OK, Lance, let's use the tyre now. Let's box this lap.

Power's coming back, huh? No, we'll box this lap, box this lap. Brake balance freewards.

Start going brake balance rearwards, so brake balance plus two, target plus two, so just keep going rearwards.

Okay, it might be tight with Fernando at pit exit. He's on seven lap old hard tyres.

Russell is next to us. We'll get a blue for him. Russell just behind you. We'll get a blue for Russell. Let's let Russell go. You've got Fernando behind him. Eight lap hold hard.

Company, Lapo, Tyres and Russell up.

Russell, 22 lap medium. 22 lap medium. We can't overtake him if we can't get him.

Let's go. We can start to move brake balance forwards again as well.

Tsunoda connected, we're racing. Tsunoda ahead of Russell, we're racing.

OK, we need to go now. We need to go. Get away from Russell.

Okay, so we think Russell will box behind you. Russell will pit, so it's 25 to go. Let's get some saving laps.

Let's go brake balance forward. We can go forward to four percent.

So, Albon, it's 25 laps to go, Lance. Albon is six lap hard in front and he's got a five second penalty.

Tsunoda and Fernando are fighting behind, so the gap behind is good. Get into your rhythm. Lift the coast is good.

Brake balance, another two forwards. Another two forward brake balance.

OK, that's a 23 to go, 23 to go. You're currently P15. Albon ahead as a penalty.

And other cars ahead are on a similar strategy, so we think we're fairly well aligned here. So we're looking at a P13 or 14. Leclerc ahead may be quite slow.

So the Leclerc may come back to us later in the race, but that's an outside chance, so for now just a good saving. This is a good tyre for all the cars. This will look good.

So we think more management entry turn 9, so earlier left turn 9.

Brake balance another plus one. Brake balance plus one. That's just to help rear slip.

That's 20 laps to go, 20 to go.

Albon is four laps older, harder than you.

And Albon has a five second penalty as well.

So when you get close to Albon, you can use early energy exit turn 1.

Car behind is Verstappen, race leader. We expect blues in two laps.

If you're racing Albon into turn 4, we recommend yellow button. Yellow button for turn 4 if you're racing Albon.

Good job, mate. Remember, he's got a five-second penalty. Good job. Back in your room now. Well done.

Let's do K0 again. K0 now.

Verstappen, race leader, is just behind Albon. Norris is just behind Verstappen.

Okay, so that's a blue flag for Verstappen car behind and Norris is just behind Verstappen. So blue for Verstappen, Norris just behind him.

Watch out for Albon.

OK, lads. 15 to go. 15 to go. Good job. That was clever, that. 15 to go.

We expect at least one more blue flag, but that will come later, maybe 10 laps time.

Albon has lost DRS. Albon has lost DRS.

It's insane how much we clip the tyres.

So, Lance, I know it's difficult, but we are happy with management. We're happy with what we see for now. That's 12 laps to go.

So, you're currently P13. Leclerc has stopped behind Albon. He's quite quick, so we might be racing him soon.

So Leclerc will be the car behind soon. He's on 8-lap newer mediums. He's going to be very fast so we shouldn't lose too much time with him.

That's ten laps to go. Ten to go. Leclerc car behind, but he's very quick.

So Leclerc may not have, he will have DRS. Leclerc will have DRS but he's very quick. Let's not lose too much time.

So it's eight to go, eight laps to go. You've got Albon two behind still.

It's yellow in turn 3. Yellow in turn 3 where you are now.

OK, track is clear.

Verstappen car ahead slow is Puncture.

OK, that's seven to go. So Albon is 1.4 behind. Russell, race leader, is just behind him. So we'll get a blue for Russell soon.

So, Russell car behind his race leader. We'll get a blue from him soon, I'll let you know.

So that's six laps to go.

That's a blue for Russell. Blue for Russell. Car behind.

VSC. VSC. Run switch safety car. Keep the delta positive.

So get that delta positive. Get the delta positive.

Yeah, I'll be very vulnerable in this tyre if everyone stops behind me.

So for now, Lance, pit entry is closed. But we're staying out either way.

Closer to the Delta at the Cetica line.

VSC ending, VSC ending.

You'll have a blue from Russell soon as well.

Blue flag for Russell. Five laps to go. Blue flag for Russell.

Piastri car behind. We'll get a blue from him in a lap or two.

That's four laps to go. Four to go. We've got a blue for Piastri and Sainz is just behind him.

Blue flag for Piastri. Sainz is one behind Piastri as well.

So we'll get a blue soon for Sainz, who's car behind. Albon is 1.5 behind Sainz.

So, blue flag for Sainz. Albon is 1.5 behind Sainz who were racing. That's the last blue flag done.

That's three laps to go. Albon does have DRS. Three laps to go.

We can use late energy if you need.

Two laps to go, Lance. Two to go.

Can use late energy. Currently P13.

Let's get to Strat 6. This is the final lap, Strat 6. You can use early energy if you need.

Scary.

OK, Lance, good job. That is the flag. Thanks for steering with it.

OK, Lance, just a couple of features like normal, so run switch warm-up, run switch warm-up and then it's MFB, PU1, position 12. MFB, PU1, position 12.

OK, you said in the end laps that was P13. That was P13. I think that's a...

A bit of a long afternoon for you, but probably the most we got out of it.

The debris, the slow cars, I think Norris, Verstappen had to come in together, so Russell won in the end. Russell, Piastri, Sainz on the podium. Right after. Copy.

And just... P's air reminder.
