Alexander Albon
11:34:51
Okay, so straight out, no start. So close to Hamilton pit exit potentially. Yeah, he's one second behind. He'll be on a double course, so he'll be very slow. Yeah, okay, Hamilton just one behind and ahead. We've got six seconds of Tsunoda.
11:35:15
OK, so all cars behind in phase.
11:35:19
Okay, possibly Stroll pushing two back.
11:35:26
Stroll 1.5. Potentially pushing.
11:35:42
Okay, so ahead of Tsunoda, there's nine seconds to Ocon, so you can get by him, that's fine. Okay, perfect. So, Stroll looks like he's doing consecutive laps. That's why he should pull away. Gap to Ocon ahead, seven, and nobody pushing behind. And go stitch to go out when you can.
11:36:10
Okay, so that's Ocon ahead two seconds and ahead of you there's four cars starting push.
11:36:16
So, two of them are in the final corner now, so should be going and ahead is just Ocon and Magnussen.
11:36:27
Ok, so Ocon may do another cool lap.
11:36:33
It looks like Ocon's going to do another call, so you can go by him if you can. Possibly Leclerc pushing two back.
11:36:43
Gap to Ocon 2.
11:37:27
OK, all cars behind in phase.
11:37:44
Okay, so Russell ahead is on an out lap, but he's doing it as part of a double cool, so we expect him to push next lap.
11:37:52
And ahead of Russell, there's a 12 second gap. So if you need to go by him, you can. And first pushing car is Norris, seven back. Okay, now gap ahead is good. So ahead of you is just Stroll starting to push. He's 12 seconds ahead. Norris, five back pushing.
11:38:10
Norris, three. Two seconds, Norris.
11:38:26
Okay, so we're just cooling next lap as well.
11:39:58
OK, over the line, go switch, go cool. That's your target, double cool, plus 20 on the dash. First push will be Gasly, 10 back.
11:40:09
No corrections for Gasly. Looks like he's double cooling.
11:40:16
Do we want to respect everything?
11:40:21
Yes, please, if we can. Let's see how the tyres respond. So do your best. OK, but I won't learn much. I don't know what everyone else is doing, but they don't seem to be respecting anything.
11:40:40
Okay, Alex, in that case we can ignore, so do what you need to do.
11:40:45
So, all cars behind in phase. What do you think about the flap?
11:40:53
It's about a turn and a half on the FAT, but I wonder if the second push is going to be OK.
11:41:03
OK, understood. We'll leave it.
11:41:13
OK, Alex, still no-one pushing behind, so we would suggest driving through the pitlane just to help the tyres a bit.
11:41:29
The car actually feels quite nice. Feels pretty good.
11:41:41
Okay, so box, Alex, box. I'll just take it steady in the pitlane just to try to help track position at pit exit.
11:42:13
OK, so car ahead, one of the McLarens, I think it was Norris, that's Piastri, so just create a gap for pit exit. So, no direction behind, just push the cars. So it should be a six-second gap if we can.
11:42:34
Okay, good job Alex. So, nobody pushing behind. So, car behind is Alonso. He's on an outlap with you. He may push through you. Yeah, he's come through. Okay, now all cars behind cooling.
11:42:58
Okay, so we've got Norris pushing five back. And then he's probably the only pushing car. Yep, Norris two.
11:43:08
Okay, potentially Ocon as well. Seven back and just target plus 25 on the dash if you can. Plus 25. Ocon four pushing.
11:43:20
Fuck, R2.
11:43:25
Okay, he should be the last one for a while. So behind is now Piastri in phase. And ahead, the only car to start a push is Alonso. He's 10 ahead.
11:43:49
Alonso ahead is 12 seconds, still no-one pushed behind.
11:43:54
So, you're doing a good job with the tyres. The rears are just about in a good place now.
11:44:02
Alonso has gone to start his push.
11:44:09
Okay, so no one ahead, track clear, so when you're ready, go switch to go push.
11:45:46
OK, over the line, switch to go in.
11:45:56
Okay, no threat from behind. First pushing car will be Ocon. He's in turn 13 now, 25 seconds back.
11:46:17
Okay, so car just ahead of you is Gasly and then Logan on an outlap. And still no threat from behind.
11:46:29
Car behind is Gasly. It's Norris. He's in phase but he looks to be pushing fairly hard. He's two back now. He'll probably come past you.
11:46:39
Main limitation is high speed understeer and...
11:46:44
The rain is going off.
11:46:54
OK, so out of turn 11, VLIM 2, 240 kph.
11:47:00
And a no-threat from behind.
11:47:12
And then box, Alex, box.
11:47:37
Okay, when you arrive, stop on the marks. Switch off, please.
11:48:03
Alex, that was good on the marks.
11:55:29
Alex goes straight out. No start. So the next car behind will be Sainz. He's going to be on a slow lap, so he'll be in phase. He's about two seconds back now. Sainz with you.
11:55:41
Okay, so Sainz just ahead of you and there's no one else behind, so we'd expect Sainz to possibly pit this lap.
11:55:53
Gap ahead currently 2. Okay, Sainz is pitting without confirmation. And ahead of Sainz is Stroll, 7 seconds in phase. So this position will be good.
11:56:28
Still no one pushing behind. Just go switch to go out when you can.
11:56:41
Okay, so car ahead, Stroll, three seconds. We're expecting him to pit this lap as well. We're not 100% sure, but that's what we're expecting.
11:56:51
And it's only Sainz that's Stroll ahead to start push laps behind all cars in phase. Gap behind Piastri is 11 seconds if you need it. Stroll is 4 ahead. Stroll 5. Stroll looks like he's starting a push lap. Stroll 6. Gap's good, so go switch to go push. Stroll 7.
11:58:38
Okay, over the line, go switch to go in. So we'll box this lap, cool the car on the way in, just as prep for qualy.
11:58:52
Nobody pushing behind, so the first pushing is going to be Russell. He's 25 back, just in the final corner now.
11:59:01
Yeah, we've got a really weird disconnect between the car in high speed and low speed. The high speed is so understeering, but I need the flap in the car because it's destroying the fronts, but then everything else is just bad traction and entrance instability.
11:59:27
Understood, Alex. We'll have a look when you can hear me. The front is destroyed.
11:59:38
Okay, copy that from the front tyres. So, first pushing car is Russell, 10 back. And after him, there's Bottas, 15 back.
11:59:53
Russell at 5.
11:59:58
Okay, possible debris at turn 12. So just ahead of you now, possible debris, Russell 3. Russell with you now.
12:00:07
OK, then it's Bottas 5.
12:00:14
Three seconds, Bottas. He'll be the last pushing car. And then box, Alex, box. Bottas just behind.
12:00:40
When you arrive, just stop on the marks and switch off, please.
12:08:08
Okay, so I think the two Haas cars just came past us, so we just need to open the gap to their pit exit. So remember, target six seconds. Ah, I think he's passed them already. Okay, so all cars around in phase. Car ahead is Bottas, two.
12:08:30
Okay, so all cars behind in phase. Car behind is now Behrmann on an outlap.
12:08:37
And then that's Bottas just ahead of you on a slow lap and ahead of him there's 10 seconds to Logan on an outlap. So if you need to get by Bottas, that'll be good. Okay, good job. So now 10 ahead to Logan and no one pushing behind.
12:09:11
OK, Logan, it's five ahead. Go switch to go out when you can.
12:09:25
Okay, so still Logan two ahead on an outlap ahead of him. It's only Alonso and he's in the final corner. He's probably double cooling. No, he's pitting actually. It's very good. Going on the next one.
12:09:39
Yes, he is. Logan's going to go next lap. The track's clear ahead of him. Gap 2. Hamilton behind. He's on high fuel.
12:09:51
OK, so Hamilton 2 behind high fuel, Logan 4 ahead. Logan 5, 6 seconds, go switch to go push.
12:11:24
Okay, so over the line, keep a go-push. So keep a go-push. And we need to cool the car. So first pushing Gasly three back.
12:11:37
Gasly 2, pushing. With you now. And then it's Hamilton, high fuel, 4 back.
12:11:46
Hamilton, 2.
12:11:52
Hamilton with you now. Then it will be Stroll 9.
12:12:03
It's a Stroll 4 pushing and he'll be the last pushing car.
12:12:11
Stroll two seconds.
12:12:17
Okay, and now we can go switch to go in. All cars behind in phase.
12:12:29
If we can, out of turn 11, VLIM 2, 240 in 7th gear.
12:12:36
So still all cars behind in phase, so track position should be OK. So VLIB 2, 240.
12:12:50
And then box, Alex, box!
12:13:08
Okay, so Logan is ahead of you in the pitlane, so we'll just stop in front of our garage. And Logan will stop in front of his.
12:13:23
OK, good job. I think you can switch off.
12:20:41
Okay, Alex, so we will do a start at pit exit. Do two burnouts, please. And the clutch drop is 3-4, 34 percent.
12:21:18
Brake clear. Pit exit.
12:22:16
When you can, green 4, position 1.
12:22:42
Okay, this will be six time laps to the end. Target lap time 25.0.
12:25:30
OK, that's four laps remaining. Perez, two cars ahead. He's still on low fuel.
12:26:31
Blue 3, position 1. Blue 3, 1.
12:27:23
Get possible gap, return 4.
12:27:57
When you can, we need blue 3, position 1. You did green last time. Blue 3, position 1.
12:28:24
OK, and green 4, position 1. Green 4, 1. And that's two push laps remaining.
12:28:34
Is there any space like I go up box? Not really. Back behind, no. Just ahead of Alonso.
12:28:52
So behind Ricciardo, there's a four second gap, if that's better.
12:29:50
Let's restart the time-lapse.
12:31:17
Okay, over the line, there's a chequered flag, there's a chequered flag. Okay, so I have to keep pushing until we hit traffic.
12:31:45
Yes, so you're backed out, so obviously all cars behind in phase. Just need to try and coil the tyres as much as possible, so concentrate on coiling the rears. And we'll stay out, we'll go to grid for a practice start.
12:32:25
Okay, Alex, so two cars ahead of you. It's Norris and Ricciardo and then ahead of them is Logan. So we'll just do the opposite to whatever Logan does on the grid. You should be able to see him. When we get to the grid, so the clutch drop will be 34.34, same as last time. Last time you were on target and just stand by on the burnouts.
12:33:01
Okay, Alex, so we'll do one burnout, please. So one burnout. So go switch to go burnout and then burnout button.
12:33:16
Go to the opposite side to Logan, if you can see him. It looks like he's staying on the left. Yeah, he's on the left, so you can go to the right-hand side. And clutch drop 34.34.
12:34:17
Switch to go in when you can.
12:34:28
Okay, so for info, clutch drop was 4% shallow that time. And if you can, out of 11, we'll do a VLIM 240 kph in 7th gear.
12:34:51
Box, Alex, box for a practice pitstop.
12:35:25
OK, Alex, I'll just push you forward so that you make space for Logan and you can switch off.
12:35:51
OK, let's just let the fast lane clear. There's a couple of cars coming down and then we'll try and reorder the cars and get you back in the garage.
