So far, so good.

Thank you for watching.

So we'll just build the gap early here. We have quite a few people on a lap. So Hulkenberg apex turn 1 on a lap. He's just behind on exit. So gap 2. Now 1. Behind him 7 seconds. So Piastri ex-car on a lap 7 seconds.

Piastri now at 5. Just keep an eye on Piastri if he's going to keep up.

So we're going to assume everybody will be on consecutives here, George. Chance of rain two minutes away is increasing now. Piastri at three on his lap.

Astrid, two and a half. Behind him, eight seconds to Zhou.

Two seconds to Piastri on a lap.

OK, now eight seconds to Zhou.

After Zhou. Four and a half seconds behind Zhou to Bottas.

So, you've still got 8 seconds to Zhou. We'll be strat 7 for the first lap. So, build your gap to Lewis. I'd expect Zhou to go again. Gap 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, and then it's 5 to Bottas. 5, 4, 3, 2.

So, George, we can go strat 2 next lap. If Joe gets out of the way. Verstappen 56.0.

OK, so we can go strat 1 now. We'll go for a cool lap. We've got target minus 15 on the dash, so that's currently a P5. Still got Verstappen on that 56.0. He's car behind pushing at 7 seconds. We're expecting no more rain in this session.

Verstappen at 6.05.

Three to Verstappen. No, two.

And then Piastri at 9 seconds, 8 seconds on a lap.

7 for Piastri, so just cooling the tyres where you can. Use the water for that. Piastri now. 5 seconds on his lap.

Three seconds to Piastri. Two. Then it's Zhou at eight seconds. There are no tyres compared to here.

So, minus eight from here. So, we've got Joe at five seconds on a lap.

It's clear after, Joe.

Zhou now at 4-3-2.

And we are seeing people improving after a cool-down lap.

It's clear 30 seconds to Alonso.

Valtteri is on a slow lap.

So, next lap will be strat 2.

It's all clear behind. No threat behind.

So, box, box, box, box. New inters in the box.

Let me know if you need any flap. Down 0.2.

Limiter on target, Thames. So, clear on exit. And happy laps.

So we'll get one lap here. One lap.

So we'll target plus 12 on the tyres from here.

Water in the armadillo.

So Verstappen is currently a 54.9, so that's 2.2.

Struggling to move with the rears here.

So it'll be Strat 2 next lap. Expecting Verstappen to go again. So build a gap to Verstappen. All clear behind. It'll be Strat 2 next lap. This will be your final lap.

Now keep pushing next lap. Strat 2.

Keep pushing, Strat 2. Keep pushing.

We've got Zhou at 4 seconds, we can save the tyres. Backing off. Strat 1, box, box. We've got Zhou at 4 seconds.

There's a gaggle of four cars at that four seconds of all on laps, so Joe Verstappen, Sargeant and Hamilton all pushing.

We've got Zhou and Sgt2 behind him and then Lewis and Verstappen.

So, box, box, stop at the box and switch off.

Keep an eye on white bridge lights.

And that was good on the marks.

Keep it running. AFL, keep it running.

35 seconds to green light.

Let me know on temps.

So, on current temperatures, we will need to be plus 15.

No transcript available

So, ahead of Gasly is 9 seconds to Ocon, but he's quite close to Albon, so expect him to fall back towards you.

So there's a chance of some light drizzle two to five minutes out here. Gasly still got seven seconds ahead of him.

Ocon's now dropped back a bit into Gasly, so three seconds gap between those two cars.

And will be strapped to next lap.

Sergio Sainz on the box.

Rear just sliding all over the place.

Just let me know if you need any flap adjust here.

So, Albon currently fastest car, 54.7, that's two tenths up.

That's obviously on a new Inter.

OK, it's raining now. Yeah, we've got light drizzle in the pitlane here.

Green 8, position 13.

And just let me know if you need any flap adjust. Minus 0.2.

Brakes are popping up with rear pressures.

Box. Yeah, we're going into corner 1, aren't we?

OK, so we're straight out. Run plan here is three laps, so it'll be fast, slow, fast.

I'm going to target plus 10 from here. Track is clear. Clear on exit.

So these conditions are just going to continue as they are.

So 11 seconds ahead to Gasly. He's got a good 12 seconds ahead of him. So these gaps are good. Pushing end of lap.

So, George, just to reiterate, it will be fast, slow, fast.

So this is going to be clear in sector 3. Next lap will be strat 2.

OK, so strat 1, we're going for single cool.

Target minus 20 from here. We've got lots of margin to the flag here, so we've got lots of time you can use that up.

Ocon car behind on an outlap. You've got a Ricciardo first lap car who's on a lap. He's at 8 seconds.

5 to RICARDO. 4.

2. Behind him, Gasly at 7 on an outlap.

So Gasly on an outlap behind is 22 seconds behind him.

Green 8, position 14. Norris at 18 seconds on a lap.

So, Norris currently P2. He is three tenths up on your delta.

And Norris at 9 seconds on a lap.

So expecting Verstappen car ahead to go again next lap.

Okay, so you've got Norris at seven seconds on a lap, so Norris might go again next lap. So just build that gap to Verstappen and it will be Strat 2.

Gap behind 5 seconds.

OK, so strat 1, box, box.

Mark it for Eric.

So, box, box, stop on your marks and switch off.

1.30 to green light.

So we can switch off down the end.

So, 35 seconds, we can fire up.

No transcript available

So this is going to be five timed laps. Fast, slow, fast profile.

Five seconds.

B-Bal offset plus one.

So we're going to target plus 12.

So rain in the pitlane is currently effectively zero.

And we've seen a slight rotation in the wind, so more of a tailwind, turn 5, about 5 to 10 kph, so quite low.

So it will be Strat 2 next lap.

Strat 1. We're going for a single cool lap here. Similar in profile to your Q2 lap. Slow lap. So we're going to target minus 25.

Piastri car behind has backed up.

So, main losses on that map were turns 1, 5 and 18, all braking.

So a small increase in the level of rain in the pitlane. So this is now level 1.

So Ocon on a slow behind.

So you're in sync with all the cars around you.

Still a level one drizzle in the pitlane. We'll try and hold this current position. Just try and position ourselves for the end of the session.

So we'll go strat 2 next lap. We're expecting Alonso car behind to box. Just keep an eye on him.

OK, so strat 1. We'll go for another single cool.

Targeting at minus 20.

Alonso car behind on an outlap. You've got Norris.

Should be on a slow lap. Yeah, he has completed. So Norris at turn 1.5 has completed.

So we want to try and keep track position here for Norris.

So, Perez car behind on an outlap. Four cars ahead will be preparing for their laps. They're going to start pushing towards you.

We should be okay for the flag here.

It will be Strat 2 next lap. Got Norris just pushing through Perez.

That's a jump.

Strat 1. Weak box-box.

I'll probably need some brake fans here.

Yeah, A-firm. They're OK at the moment.

Very difficult session. Rear end was not really biting at all. Throughout it was only that Q2 run where it felt pretty decent.

P7 in the end. So Verstappen, Leclerc, Perez, Lewis, Norris, Piastri, yourself.
