Radio check.

Yep, loud and clear. Yep, loud and clear.

Okay, Lando, tyre information. Alonso and Stroll, B7 and A, starting on used softs. On the back half of the grid, Albon, Magnussen, also softs. Then Perez, Russell and Gasly is in the pitlane. They all have hard-ons. Everyone else, medium tyre.

Radio check. Loud and clear. 30 seconds to go.

Fifteen seconds.

10 seconds.

Five seconds.

OK, Lando, no full pedal from turn 5. Big difference to 6.

Launch feedback, Lando. You are on target. Pre-launch was all okay, just a bit too much throttle.

Purple is C6, position 1, before the burnouts.

Last car approaching the grid.

Max has to give the position. We're on it.

Yeah, he committed to the outside, so he would run off. Can't do that.

Understood, Lando. We've informed race control by the regulation they should give the position back or face a more severe penalty. DRS enabled.

Yeah, he was only ahead because he braked way too deep. He admitted to the exit.

And that's just strat 12. Strat 12.

He has been told. He has been told. It's just over D6.

Check right-hand toggle.

Gap 0.8.

1.0. He does have DRS.

1.2. He does not have DRS.

So, Lando, we're currently thinking plan A target lap. At the moment, one sample of the hard where the pace is okay, but high tech, but it's only Hulk. The soft looks poor.

I know quite a few of the slower cars who are on soft have all pitted. It doesn't affect our race. Stroll is currently P7. He is 15.0.

Lando just managed to pace a little bit in turn 11 and rear slips turn 7 and turn 9.

And Lando, how's the pace and tyres compared to Friday?

I feel a little bit more rear limited at the minute. A little bit more rear limited.

And Lando suggests strat 7. Strat 7. And yellow G3. Yellow G3.

And Lando, still on plan. Any updates? Not at the minute.

The pit behind is Verstappen 2.4, then Hamilton, then Leclerc, then Sainz is at 9, then Stroll 17.

Where am I losing at the minute?

Entries turn 2, turn 8, turn 9.

Fernando, we believe our race is with Verstappen. Continue to open a gap. This is good. It's now 2.9.

Suggest red A5. Red A5.

Both safety car windows are open. For plan A, please confirm. Copy.

ACS button press, please.

Lando, Hamilton has just pitted for a hard tyre.

100% pace please, 100% pace.

Lando, box this lap please. Box this lap. How's the balance? Box this lap please. Box this lap. How's the balance?

Box this lap. Box this lap.

Brakes only when you come to a stop.

Launch mat, launch mat, launch mat. This is outlap 2 or 3. Stint 2. We are not trying to undercut.

Tsunoda and then Hamilton over the start-finish line. They're behind.

We're going to need to go long on these tyres.

Hard tyres have shown high deck, so we'll have to manage them.

Oscar will be the car ahead.

Lando, we've potentially stopped earlier than ideal, so this is a cruising run on this tyre. The pace in the car is there.

So, Lando, we think this is plan A, target lap.

And Lando, opportunity. Manage peak pressures in turn 4, turn 5, turn 11.

OK, Lando, Verstappen and Sainz in the pit. We need to manage the pace a little bit more in turn 4. Hamilton is a car behind 2.2.

Hamilton 1.7. Lando, our opportunity ahead and behind with potential to extend.

OK, Lando, Leclerc has just pitted, so everyone has now pitted. Everyone has gone hard.

Yeah, where's my biggest time lapse?

Opportunity. Turn 1 braking. 5 to 10 metres later.

Fernando, we need to manage rear locking. Turn 1, turn 2, last line of braking and opportunity. Turn 8, minimum speed.

Lando, opportunity, turn 5, less peak brake pressure, carry more entry speed.

Lando, suggest blue B7. Blue B7. What you did in turn 5 was good. Same now in turn 13.

And I want to think about if the safety car came out now, it would be pretty bad. But in two, three, four laps or so, we might be forced to take it. That might mean another stint. What are your thoughts?

Perhaps a simpler question is, would you be able to restart these tyres and do another 15 laps?

I mean, I think yes, but that'd be a little bit tricky.

Gap to Hamilton now is 4.7. Yes, I want to gap ahead and I need to know where I can go quicker because I'm just blowing. I'm about to tell you.

So, Lando, mind the rear slips, turn 5, turn 7. Opportunity, turn 4, early lift.

An opportunity, turn 13, early brake release.

Lando, opportunity, tighter to apex, turn 1 and turn 2.

And Lando, the full saved car window is open, just before 1. For your info, it might mean a short, soft stint at the end.

And I know both cars are struggling with the rears. I know you know, you need to avoid those snaps.

Lando, the key here will be to get to the mid-40s and if both safety car windows are open, please confirm.

Lando, just be careful of the rear. It's turn 4, turn 11.

And Lando is 1.3. OK to race the papaya car, but still the mid-40s.

ACS button pressed.

And Lando, opportunity, turn 1, try to line. We need to manage the rears. Turn 4, turn 11 with pace.

And Lando, this lap, turn 4, unacceptable. Need to back off the tyres.

And now Hamilton and Leclerc have pitted.

Suggest holding 8th into turn 1.

So, Lando, gap to Hamilton is 28.5. We think it's a bit early at the moment. We'd still like to do target minus five at whatever pace we can get.

And Lando, opportunity, turn 2, braking point is good, less peak.

So, Lando, the gap to Hamilton and Leclerc is 25.5. We will box to cover them.

Lando, we box this lap. Box this lap.

Box now. Box now.

Launch map on in the pitlane. Brakes on when you come to a stop.

Launch back.

Launch map, launch map, launch map. The aim here, again, is not to undercut Oscar. We want to bring the tyres into Hamilton. He's just leaving the final corner. Still a long way to go. 24 laps.

Gentle introduction, especially high speed, 4th and 11th.

Lando, it's already happened. Blue B6, red A5. Look after the tyres. Gentle introduction. 23 laps to go after this one.

Okay, Lando, Oscar has just pitted. He will likely come out just behind you. We'd like to re-establish the order at your convenience.

Verstappen is currently eight and a half ahead still to make a stop.

Lando, still 21 laps after this one. You do have the current fastest lap. Look after the tyres.

Verstappen has pitted.

Lando, mate, we're not happy with this level of tyre saving. 20 laps to go.

And Lando, radio check please. Yes, slowly clear. OK, save the tyres in turn 4 and turn 11 then, please.

Thank you. We're happy with that level.

OK, Lando, the position behind is Oscar's 3.8 behind. Then Hamilton and Leclerc are 12 and Max is right behind him. We need you to save more tyres, please, and we do want to let Oscar through. We should have boxed him first then, surely, no? Doesn't matter.

I mean, it does. For me, maybe.

And, Lando, we still think you're using the tyres too much. Turn 4, turn 11, and the rear's at exit. Turn 6, turn 9. Oscar's 3.5. I know you'll do the right thing.

And Lando, Hiroshi is stressed about the tyre energies, but a question for you. Safety car with more than eight laps to go, would you take it? Yes. Are we at sort of 12?

And Lando, the full safety car window is therefore open. Copy that.

Turn 4, turn 11. It's going to get boring.

Okay, Lando, 10 laps to go. We think both cars are using their tyres too much. Just remember, every single Sunday morning meeting we have.

Yeah, tell him to catch up then, please.

Lando, he can't catch you up. You've proved your point and it really doesn't matter. These are much bigger tyres. I mean, I would have tried to undercut anyway. If I didn't, I would have gone long. Mate, we did the stop sequence in this order for the good of the team. Yeah, I'm fighting for a championship. Okay, I'm trying to protect you, mate. I promise, I'm trying to protect you. I'm trying to protect you.

Possible debris, turn 1.

ACS button press, please.

And Lando, the seatbelt window is closed.

And, Lando, there are five laps to go. The way to win a championship is not by yourself. It's with the team. You're going to need Oscar and you're going to need the team.

Lando, there is no threat behind. Hamilton is 20.3, then Leclerc, then Max. If there's a safety car now, it's going to make this very awkward. Please do it now.

Yeah, you don't need to say anything.

This is the last lap.

Leave recharge off and wipe 11, position 12, please. Wipe H11, position 12.

Well done. Good run through, good load of points. Progressive. Well deserved.

As we said this morning, mate, many more opportunities.
