Three minutes to go.

Okay, Lando, coming up to 2 minutes 10 to go. I'll ask you to fire up with 40 seconds to go. It's possible in these conditions we should go for it on the first time lap. You're currently in strat 10, which is good for consecutive laps. If we want a push-call-push arrangement, it will be strat 2. Strat 2.

We think Class 2 rain eight minutes into the session.

One minute to go. DRS has been disabled. It will now be disabled for this entire mini-segment.

40 seconds, engine start. Lando, I will count you down to the green light and they expect you to go as soon as it's green.

30 seconds.

20 seconds.

10 seconds.

5, 4, 3, 2, 1. Hopefully it's green.

So, Lando, we still think there's rain coming in about six and a half minutes' time. It will be class 1 to class 2. Then we think it will drop down to class 1 and potentially stay at that. If you want to do consecutive laps but biased to the first, we can use strat 9 for the first and then you can stay in 9. Or if you want a single-time lap at the start, strat 2 is cool.

Correction, rain expected in just over two minutes' time.

But class one.

Happy to do continuous.

Yeah, but I've got traffic now, so one second behind. You've got eight seconds to Leclerc behind.

Behind Leclerc is Magnussen. About two seconds behind him.

First spots of rain, turn 17, just past the hut.

Places to improve.

Opportunity. Turn 2. Smaller lift.

Opportunity. Speed through turn 7. Leclerc's five seconds.

And opportunity, turn 15, smaller lift.

Leclerc about three and a half. Magnussen two behind him. We've got nine seconds to Verstappen ahead.

Suggest strat 9. Strat 9, Leclerc 2.

Recharge off.

Turn 5. Spots of rain.

Gap behind 4.4.

Lando, the fastest is a 1.56. You're currently P5. A cut off for 1.58.5. This is now or never for a new set. We think we should take a new set.

We also think we should take out some front wings, suggesting down one and a half, down one and a half. Tsunoda, three and a half.

Anyone else box? Magnussen has pitted. Tsunoda right behind. Alonso, Albon pitting. Sargeant pitting.

Stroll pitting, so five cars now.

OK. Box set.

So we have boxed this lap. There'll be another into down 1.5. Down 2. Understood.

Leclerc is in turn 1. Sainz is just out of the final corner.

Sainz approaching turn 1.

Sainz, 3.5 seconds. Opportunities. Turn 1, more U-style. After Sainz is Hulkenberg. He's about three seconds behind Hulkenberg.

Initial braking for turn 1. Still offline. Hulkenberg coming up close.

Opportunity, Eau Rouge, other car flat.

Hulk close.

Opportunity. Turn 9. Focus on phase 3 brake release. Car behind is Sargeant on an outlap. So, Lando, timing-wise, it's just possible to do push-cool-push. Could be tight, but I think doable. I suggest strat 2. Strat 2.

And Lando for turn 1. Correction, dry line braking. First car on the time-lapse is Verstappen turn 12. There are three cars in the bus stop, two cars ahead of you on time-lapse and Albon on an outlap.

Alexander, there are three minutes left. That's currently a 54.9. Cut-off is a 57.0.

First car behind might be Sgt in turn 1.

Opportunity. Turn 1. Maximise phase 1 and 2 to release in phase 3.

Opportunity. Eau Rouge. Same as last time.

An opportunity. Turn 15. Other car. Smaller lift. Think in phase with all the cars around. That means there's about 8 cars ahead of you, maybe more still to open the time lap. There is 2 minutes remaining.

Still about 9 cars to go. 1 minute 30.

Opportunity. Turn 14. Earlier braking. Focus on the exit.

Still about seven cars ahead to go.

No-one behind me. No-one behind you to worry about. Back to Leclerc, who's in turn 13, but slow. There's one minute to the flag. You need to go with, let's call it 10 seconds for your number.

Fifty seconds to go.

I can't see how many cars anymore. 40 seconds to go.

Leclerc's in turn 17.

30 seconds to go. Leclerc is in turn 18 now.

And we are boxed this lap.

We are through.

OK, Lando.

Twenty-two seconds to go.

Lando suggests blue B6. Blue B6.

We expect this to be stable until for 10 minutes and then class 1 rain. So class 1 rain in 10 minutes. Session starts.

Lando, remember, load transfer driving. Do not overpush the braking.

Five cars ahead of you. The first is Albon, turn 17.

13, 14, tight or wide? 12, 13.

Still three cars to go. Two now.

12.13. Tight.

A lot of rain in Teguadalreles.

Lando, it's possible the Ferrari is behind. We'll do another one. We suggest box this lap.

Yeah, confirm. My range is at 1.61, I would say.

Try and keep your speed up on the inlap. Fastest is currently you, 54.4. The cutoff is a 55.3.

Still definitely a box, yeah.

If we want to do push-pull-push, it has to be now, so yes.

Yeah, it's already raining more everywhere. I'm unsure how much quicker it'll go.

We expect the conditions to stay the same as now until the end of Q2. We are expecting other cars around to pit you. Lando, are you happy that we leave the front wing as is?

Yeah. Down one. Down one. Box this lap then please. I'll be a new in to down one.

Drive straight out. I think we'll be clear at exit. This is push, call, push. Obviously, try and do it on the first.

Yeah, I think it's too wet. Okay, keep preparing for opportunity. Turn 9, outlap braking. Braking point is good.

Opportunity. Turn 14. Brake a little earlier. Barcelona braking. Lando, we think opening a lap at least there is little cost to do it.

Rain stopped in pitlane.

So, Lando, we open the lap. As soon as you're sure it's slower, just don't overuse the tyre. It means it might be drying up and we'll want to do it later in the session.

So, Hamilton is five seconds behind.

There is 4 minutes 50, so there's still time. Hamilton's approaching turn 5. There's time to do another attempt next time, or we go round again and then do it at the end. Hamilton has just left turn 7. The fastest at the moment is a 53.8. You're in second. The cutoff is a 54.9. Yeah, OK. I just need to know if people are going quicker now or not. All cars on a second set going quicker. Leclerc, but not quicker than you yet, quicker than themselves. Leclerc's behind four seconds.

Leclerc, close, turn a bit.

Lando, Russell completed on a new set. He was three tenths slower than you were.

Okay, Lando, let's just save the tyre for a bit. That's it. Let's try and keep the tyre. There's two minutes to go, so we can open another one. We can't go past without opening. Red button. Hamilton's car behind slow. First car on the time lap is miles away. Yeah, miles away. There's two cars ahead of you to go.

Lando. Max and Oscar's main gain has been the second half of the chicane, so turn 19. I'd suggest right-hand paddle turn 12, turn 13.

Okay, that's the end of the session. We're boxed this lap.

Still cars to complete.

And we are through.

And we're happy to leave it fired up. There's one minute, five seconds to go.

Minor. Purple C11, position 3, please. Purple C11, position 3.

30 seconds to go.

So, run plan wise, what's possible? So, in theory, you can do push, call, push, call, push. So, three attempts. Okay.

That should be green.

Lando, opportunity. We're currently losing with longer distance through turn 1. Suggest drifting in and potentially be half a car width tighter.

Two cars to go.

OK, so cool lap. Pick up wet patches as much as you can.

Opportunities. Turn 1. We think taking less apex kerb is good. Focus on minimum.

Opportunity, turn 2, other car flat.

Opportunities in turn 5-6 in 12.30.

Focus on trajectory. Do not overpush the braking.

Lando, with the tyre temperature, possibly a double call would be beneficial. There is time for it, but we would only get one more attempt.

What are the cars ahead doing?

Er, we don't know. No information about them.

Some cars will fit their new sets, but not many have them.

What's Oscar doing? Single.

Opportunity. Turn 10. Throttle, pick up. Sainz is probably pushing because he's going to box, we think.

And there is time to do another call-up. There's three minutes to the flag.

No one behind to worry about. Verstappen will leave the pitlane behind you.

And I know opportunities. Turn 5 minimum speed and turn 10 minimum speed. Two minutes to go. There is this group of five cars ahead of you and Perez is the car behind on an outlap.

Suggest right-hand paddle for turn 12 and turn 13.

Lando, if you wanted to use the top right number on your dash, it would be plus 47 is okay. Plus 47. No more.

Rain possibly increasing around the circuit. 1 minute 15 to the flag.

There are four cars in the bus stop and then the two out of you, so six in total.

Fifty seconds to go. Five cars to go.

Four cars to go.

40 seconds to go. Just the two ahead to go.

30 seconds to go.

OK, we're boxed this lap. Clear behind.

Andy, just enter the pitlane.

And that will be P5.

Yeah, well done. As good as I could do today, I was shocking. So, happy with that. Cheers. Yeah, no worries. Long race tomorrow.
