Okay, let's make sure we keep a bit of pace straight from the go so we don't lose the blanket temperature. The Haas is reporting definitely good for winter.

And Daniel, keep me posted if you want to change pedal map, if you want something a bit smoother.

Understood.

OK, temperatures are starting to come up. We are missing around 5 degrees to be in the working range.

Yep, yeah, rear wheel feels quite poor at the moment.

You can move to 13 if you want.

Gasly, 5 ahead outlap.

I have no fucking grip. Like nothing on the rear.

Copy that. Currently P2 to Yuki. You're two seconds ahead of Magnussen and two seconds behind Yuki.

The track is wetter than expected, but it's going to improve quickly. All the cars on track.

Sainz 4 behind.

Yeah, Gasly just spun. If he gets stuck, he'll be a red.

Yuki, 47.0.

Red flag. Box, box.

Try to keep temperature on your way in.

Ok, so, obviously I've started a lot with rear. I'll definitely take some air balance out. We'll see what else we can do. Ok, understood. In terms of tyres, we are lacking a little bit of rear time compared to the other car, but difficult conditions also for the other supercars. Box, box, box, box.

Stop on the mark on switch-off.

Only other quick one before I forget. There's quite a bit of pulling to the left. OK, understood.

We get ready to go again. There is rain coming.

They're going to be lower exiting.

Okay, so we try to maximise straight line braking. We have to be a bit patient with tyres a couple of laps.

B-Bal offset plus one.

OK, tyres are coming up. A little bit patient. On we get there.

Okay, we have Yuki 5 behind. Don't block too much anymore.

Bottas, 2.5 ahead, out lap.

Okay, compared to Yuki, previous lap was 2 seconds sector 1, 1.5 seconds sector 2. You're currently P5 with this lap.

Stability is coming, you can open differential. It was one second sector 1. Braking turn 3, braking turn 6, main difference.

Yuki is opening the gap behind you. He's 7 behind now.

Okay, consider a mini-cooldown now to have a better lap next lap and then we have more rain coming. Okay, thank you, bye.

Let's consider a mini cool-down next lap. The main tyre is rear left. Rear left tyre to cool down. Use the water on track for rear left. Stroll 7 behind pushing. Reminder, we can open TIF entry one step. We have stability in our tyres already.

Stroll pushing 4 and then we have 11 gap to Ocon. So keep working on straight line braking for front tyres.

So it's two tenths minimum speed turn 9.

OK, Stroll 2 behind pushing and then let's try to stay ahead of Ocon. Ocon 7 behind pushing.

If Ocon is catching us, we have 14 seconds to Perez. Next car.

We can sacrifice entry turn 4 to focus exit turn 4-5. We lose a number of tenths there. Exit turn 4. Ocon, 3 behind Wishing. And then we have 14 to Perez.

OK, let's make sure the front tyres stay in the window. Front left getting a bit cold now.

Ocon, 2.5 behind pushing and a big gap behind the car.

You can do charge off, no need for charge. Ocon one behind.

Ocon pushing behind you now. And we have a big gap to Perez, next car. Ok, tyres are back, we are good. There is some pace in 15 and open the gap, braking at last corner.

Okay, good braking turn 16. You can open the gap a bit more. On we go again.

And fastest of the midfield is Hulkenberg, 42.3. That's 1.5 seconds compared to our reference.

I'm happy to try keep pushing one more lap. We can try.

We can open differently, one more step if you want.

OK, let's go for cool-down. Let's go for cool-down. Rear left tyre, main priority. Keep the front left in temperature. Currently P13. Hulkenberg 40.6, it's 8 tenths. Russell pushing 4 behind.

Russell pushing three behind and he's got Stroll two behind him.

Russell behind you now, and then Stroll behind him. When you can, straddle 12. So two cars switching now, a number of cars switching and pace. OK, Stroll next, and then Sargeant 7.

Sargeant, 3.5, pushing. Let's keep temperature front left. Sargeant, 3 behind pushing, then Ocon, 7, and big gap behind Ocon.

Sergeant 3 pushing, not catching up too fast. You can stay charged off.

Sargeant, two behind.

Sergeant 2 behind bushing, Magnussen ahead, cool down, Magnussen ahead, cool down.

Is there a gap behind Ocon? Yes, yes. 12 to Perez. We can open this straight.

And you can put one step more AB. Perez 8.

Perez 7.

RS5.

5, 4.5, RS3.

Ocon ahead, cool down, we can try to push again next lap. Currently P14, Hulkenberg in P9, one second.

It's 4.10 sector 1 to Hulkenberg and 1.00 second sector 2 to Hulkenberg.

You can increase engine braking, understeer increasing.

Sainz pushing, three behind. Box, box, box, box. We're going to make some changes, small changes and go again. Sainz three behind pushing.

Sainz too behind pushing.

Sainz behind you now. Next one is Russell on cool-down. Box, box.

Ok, no one pushing behind. Please confirm happy to box to revise tyres and flaps. Yep, understood.

Box, box, box, box.

Stop in front of the garage and switch off and normal driving please.

OK, Daniel, we are inclined to go one step up on the flap with the conditions now.

And we are going to revise the tyre settings now that the track is drier.

Yep. Yeah, so I'd say similar limitations compared to yesterday. So yeah, very similar comments.

Ok, let's plug the car and let's try to optimise what we have now in terms of switches on flaps.

OK, Daniel, as expected, it's starting to rain. It's level 1 and we expect level 2 in around 5 minutes. Track will be clear.

Yuki Tsunoda still going green at the moment. Good work on tyres.

Lowy 38.0 is cool down. Lowy 38.0 is cool down.

Oh, Yuki just did a 39.8. 39.8.

Compared to the previous lap, it's 2 tenths sector 1 and 8 tenths sector 2.

Next car behind is 11. And it's mainly under braking. All the braking points. Norris 3.5 ahead. Magnussen 10 behind.

Okay, Norris is boxing. Position is very good. We go for a couple of laps in a row.

That sector 2 is definitely wetter. Could be that wetter, we won't be able to improve, but this could be the calling situation.

I'll keep you posted on other lap times.

Keep us posted if he's getting too much. We don't expect more than this level. We do not expect more than this now. I'll keep you posted on other parts.

OK, rain is back to level 1. Rail has come down.

Zouhaid is outlap.

On Russell did a 41.1. Get across the line. 41.1.

Ocon is still improving on this lap. Ocon went green this lap.

It was ISO sector 1 to our previous lap.

Russell 40.6

I'll just make a bit more space to Joe. Copy.

Russell 40.6, our fastest in the dash is a 40.11.

Ocon, 40.8.

OK Daniel, we can consider boxing now and we go back out before end of session.

So, others are still improving, but maybe our tyres have seen most of it now.

Understood. OK, pushing on that box. Copy.

Main difference to Ocon, we are taking more margin in high speed, turn 1, turn 9.

Please confirm if you are boxing. Box, box, charge on. Yep. OK, we will turn the car around and go back out. Box, box.

Box, box, stop in front of the garage.

Stop in front of the garage and switch off.

On the Nürburgring, we are going to go back halfway with the aerobalance. When the tyres are ready and the track is getting quicker, we are starting with the front.

Yep. Yeah, understood. Just felt similar to the start of the first run. It just felt like it took a while to get going. So yeah, the cold, kind of cold chatter feeling. Copy that. Yeah, we have to bear that in mind for the next run, on the next session.

Clutch was really sensitive. Pulling away.

We have Piastri exit last corner. Straight into the rhythm.

Gasly pushing 4.5 behind. I'll let you know when he's closer.

Piastri is 3 behind, pushing on the N15 to Stroll. We should get 4 times. 4 more times.

OK, and that's it. Stroll 12 behind. And Stroll did a 41.0. 41.0. So one tenth faster than our reference.

How did the tyres start so cold? Yeah, that's London Clear. We need to be patient a few laps.

OK, we need to be patient one or two laps and then we will have a couple of laps left for performance.

Okay, so front left is the main limitation, but other tyres are all coming up very quickly now.

Ocon is still pushing. It just went green, sector 1. Two tenths faster than our fastest lap, sector 1.

Three more times. Three more times.

Alonso jersey, this is fastest lap 39.6, Alonso, 39.6.

Consider one step more engine braking, EB9.

We are overpushing turn 3, turn 4, 6, 7 entries. Focus on exits.

OK, other car was 3 tenths up sector 1, 2 tenths up sector 2. We need to focus a bit more on exits, easier on entry.

And that will be mode 1 on the line, mode 1 on the line, one more time.

Consider entry 6, one step forward.

Mode 12.

Charge off.

We have Perez still pushing 5 behind, but we can take it easy to the grid, so we have representative rear carcass. Perez 4.5 pushing.

OK. Multiply 8, torque 8. There is pushing 4 behind.

Just work on the front left turn 9 if you can. Perez too behind pushing.

Perez too behind pushing.

OK, it looks like it's cooling down now. We go right-hand side, Daniel, please, on the grid.

Multi B3 clutch position 9 please. Multi B3 clutch 9.

Target 1 shallow.

Two-time start warming. We do the same with the clutch, but focus on pedal application.

On front left, we'll be on the low side.

Right-hand side of the grid. Right-hand side. Two tyre warming, please. Two tyre warming. Mode 3.

Second gear. Same as yesterday, but more attention on the pedal application.

Box, box. Box, box. On the front left on the low side. And we have more rain. Heavy rain now. Heavy rain.

Try to keep the position if you can. Box, box.

Static pitstop.

Understood. Pitlane. Static pitstop. On switch off. No rev check.
