Six seconds, please. Yuki is three behind and he's got two cars ahead of him.

OK, he's turning a bit to get by those cars.

Let me know if you think I should let those cars pass. No, because we'd be compromised for traffic. So that's a fail and we'll try again later.

He's still trying to fight them. He's doing a good job.

So, keep doing your things.

OK, Yuki is behind you now. He's done very well.

He's got Zhou very close behind him, so we make sure we let only one car by, please.

On OK for offset 1 when you want. Good braking last corner. Maxi slowing down ahead is 3-0.

Okay, so that's Yuki directly behind and then you've got Zhou directly behind him.

Good braking where you can, and then you know the plan, charge off last corner. You let Yuki by when you can.

Yuki 1.5. Yuki 2.2.5. Charge off.

I have understeer.

Piastri, 4 behind, will start a time-lapse.

Offset 2. Piastri 3 behind, pushing.

Okay, Piastri coming now and that should be it for now.

Ok, no one else pushing. Strat 10. Keep the position if you can. There is plenty of cars behind you on cool down. Ok, so that's 44.95. Gasly is 3 tenths absorbed.

And it was all in sector 1, straight ends.

OK, everyone has cooled down. Magnussen was still on the not-lap. It's Zhou 4 behind.

Sorry, are you pushing? Negative, no one pushing behind. Position is good.

Consider mid 5 for apex rotation and push to goal in turn 1.

Okay, so Albon is 6 tenths up the road in P6.

We need some full throttle in the back straight for the battery. Make sure you get it, please.

And that's three tenths to Bottas in pitlane. And compared to Bottas, it was three tenths sector 2.

Compared to Gasly, we lost two tenths in turn 1.

There is a big train coming behind you. Still a bit of a gap, but make sure we don't let them bite us.

We need weaving on the fast last chicane, please. Weaving on fast last chicane.

On reminder, mid 5, we'll leave it to you if you don't want it.

Yep, I'll try. Copy.

Offset 1 weaving on speed in the last chicane.

No one pushing behind. Keep the position. Two cars to go ahead of you. Open a bit more where you are. And then it's Leclerc 6 on outlap. Stay away from Leclerc.

OK, position is good. Charge off. Push to the chicane.

Russell is starting a push lap. Three behind.

Russell, turn 1, pushing.

Russell coming now and then it's Hamilton 6.

I'm in turn 4 pushing.

I'm in turn 3, pushing.

Hamilton coming now.

Back to Strat 11. Happy to try one more lap, Daniel.

Yeah, so, I've been to try another one. It was only turn 12 I had quite a snap, so I lost time there. Otherwise the lap was, I felt pretty good. Yeah, very clear. 1.5 tenths, turn 12 I think.

And the sectors are quite well balanced. Still towards the top, sector 1 and 3, but not to the very top. And if we consider turn 12-13 in sector 2, that puts us in the middle of the ranking sector 2. Not too bad.

If the laps don't come together, I'll try turn 12-13 again, but come box. OK, we can do a practice start, waiting before going to the start, if you abort. What about shape 2, more migration again? With a bit more front locking, with the pace coming up.

A bit of weaving and good braking. It will help your front tyres.

OK. Yeah, I'll try shape 2. I'm just not sure if it's for turn 1. Probably after turn 1. Happy with that. We can still use the push to go turn 1. Good braking last corner, please. Position is very good.

OK, let's pick up a bit of speed, quit braking, and then again a bit of speed last chicane please. Charge up last corner.

OK, Daniel, do you want to maximise time in the garage and look at data and things before practice? Yes. Happy to box. OK, let's stop here then. Box, box.

Box, box, box, box.

Static pitstop on switch-off.

OK, we have Russell braking, turn 1, starting a push-up and then a good gap to Max. Russell turn 1 now. OK, Max is 23 behind. He should catch us. I'll keep you posted. Let's be negative on the dash, please, on the line. Don't build up too much margin. Let's not be too far behind, sorry.

On reminder, we need a bit of pace in the last straight with weaving and chicane and focus on that outlap notch.

Max pushing 14 on the Nitsuki outlap.

Next car ahead, faced with you is Alonso, 16. Position is good.

OK, Max, only car pushing behind is 6.

Max 4. Pushing.

Max 2. Pushing. Coming now.

Ok, that's it. Now you know the plan.

You can go to offset 1 now. Weaving in the back straight. Good braking where you can.

On your current lead, 3.5 on the dash.

OK, we did good weaving, good braking, and we focused on that Haute La Plange.

OK, Daniel, sorry about the traffic. Plenty of cars aborted their lap. Magnussen pushing 3.5. Yeah, we had three cars aborting in front of you. Magnussen 2 pushing now.

It's ok, it was just dirt on the line of turn 14, so I lost a chunk there.

And it was McLaren, I believe, who went off in that corner before you got there. Hulkenberg pushing 4, Bottas pushing 7. Hulkenberg now. And then Bottas. 3.5. Bottas now.

And Alonso 10 behind pushing. And all these cars are the ones who aborted the previous one.

Alonso pushing 3 behind. Strat 11 when you can.

Oh, we will need some fuel to get out of a nuclear ambience.

And we need the weaving again in the last part of the track. And we try to close the lap. Let's gather more data. Leclerc 4 pushing.

Leclerc 2 pushing. Coming soon.

Multi-B 7, diff position 4, currently in 9. Test item. Multi-B 7, position 4. Watch your mirrors for Sainz. Pitting in. Coming now.

Next car pushing Russell 13. I believe Sainz is boxing.

Can you just repeat the multi B7, what position was that? Position 7, we are currently, position 4 correction, currently 9, position 4.

OK, Russell aborted. Good weaving and focus on Laplanche. Gasly 4 behind. Full throttle reminder.

OK, we need mode 2, Daniel, when you can. That wasn't enough.

Ok, I'll box. Copy, box, box, box. Stop in front of the garage and switch off. Gasly pushing 5 behind.

Static pitstop on switch-off.

So, yeah, turn 14, 15, obviously you found another tenth and a half on that second push. So probably there was around two tenths on the table there with traffic on the gravel.

Yep, yeah, quite a bit.

Yeah, definitely some time there. OK, understood. So that's P13 after everyone has gone through.

One tyre warming.

Mode 3. Pit limiter off. Track is clear currently. Next car 20.

We keep mode 3 and we try to do a representative outlap.

B-Bal offset plus one.

Daniel, box, box, box, box for live pitstop.

10-4.

Live pitstop. We go to the soft.

Turn mode 6. Mode 9. Mode 9. Maxing turn 1.

Yeah, so I had that feeling I described opening the lap before. I just had it again heading out of the pits. Might be something with the diff. Copy, we will check. Loud and clear.

Third goal she gained. Push to goal turn 1.

Mid 6, one step up, on a bit more lift off, where are you going?

Entry 10, two steps up. And for the liftoff, chicane, turn 5 are the two good places. You're doing a good job.

Mode 6. Back to mode 6. Currently in 9.

When you can, strut 10.

Okay, so you're catching Max ahead, not sure why he's going back.

Let's take one step more margin braking turn 1. Four wheels slide there. Let's look after those tyres. Braking turn 1.

I'm missing two tenths of a mark of DRS.

DRS enabled. I'll leave it to you.

OK, no more DRS and we stay where we are for now. This is good.

Understeer. Understeer on turn 7. I need to open a small gap if that's your preference.

When you can, strat 1. Perez 5 behind. So let's open the gap in the chicane and see what we have. Four more times.

Perez 4, Perez 3.

Four times. This is the pace.

Okay, Piastri, just pit it to soft.

Oh, something feels strange.

OK, which axle? Give us more information, please. Where?

It's just like the car feels wobbly. Like I've got a broken rollbar or something. Copy. Slow in. We're checking. Bottas coming now. Charge on.

Max 6. Slowing. We're checking.

Max coming now.

OK, Zhou 5 behind. And then we have another three cars behind him. Just stay offline, please. Box, box.

There's a two behind coming now, and then we have another three cars.

Okay, three more cars coming. We're coming slowly. We can see the problem. We can see the problem. Box, box. Stop in front of the garage.

OK, two more cars now and then 6 seconds gap to Magnussen together with Gasly. Box, box.

OK, Magnussen, Gasly coming now.

Stroll 7 after them. Slow in, easy in the pit on 3, please. Stroll 4. Stroll 3. Box, box. Easy.

Stop in front of the garage and switch off.

OK, stop in front of the garage.

Mode 12.

Two tyre warming, mode 3 for the start.

Mode 3. Don't worry. That was too late. I couldn't do it. Don't worry. Mode 3. Piastri turn 1.

OK, track is clear behind. We will take the flag this lap. Keep us posted, but we think we are good.

Yep, seat's OK.

We can go mode 12, charge off. We take the Flaxus lap and stay out for practice laps.

And we keep working on the brakes, same as the formation lap, please.

One tyre warming. Start from the left-hand side, as far forward as you can. And we can delay pedal application. We are going a little bit too early on triggering the wheelspin. Same as the last race. Reminder.

Seatbelt 1. Left hand side. Confirmed.

Box. Box.

And can you open the gap five seconds more please? Gas is six behind.

Gasly 5, Gasly 4, and then we keep the position for pit entry. Gasly 3, Gasly 2, Gasly 1.5, let's get going. Thank you.

Charge off. Box, box. Pit entry test. Static pitstop.

Static pitstop. Hold the brakes.

OK, Daniel, obviously, busy session. Not easy, but good job from your side. Thank you. It was a clean day today, so we try to make another step tomorrow. We plug the car and then we talk balance.

Yep, OK. Agreed.
