I'm just going to lift into turn 5 and it will be normal full load after turn 5.
13:01:38

13:02:43
And white H14 position 1. H14 1. And it will be two long burnouts. Two long burnouts.
13:03:54
The last cars are forming up now.
13:06:06
DRS enabled.
13:11:11
Okay, we're plan A. Manage peak brake pressure. Rear slips building through stop.
13:12:00
Perez, no DRS.
13:13:02
Okay, gap to Perez is one second now. He will not have DRS.
13:14:35
Oscar, we're in the window for a full safety car. How's the tyre? It's okay. It's stable for now. Hard to know what the tech is like compared to the practice.
13:16:49
Russell 1.0. He has DRS.
13:17:15
Hulkenberg has just pitted. That's the first car.
13:18:13
For turn 8, use back-right toggle. Turn 8, back-right toggle and Oscar, plan A or B, what do you think?
13:18:25
Hey, guy!
13:18:48
Strat 7.
13:20:50
Back right toggle for turn 8 and 12. Turn 8 and 12.

13:22:28
Okay, Russell and Verstappen have pitted.
13:23:14
Oscar, what do you think your pace will do in free air?
13:23:24
I think it will be a little bit better, but not that much.
13:23:54
Oscar, box this lap. Box this lap.
13:24:24
Launch map, launch map, you'll be racing cars.
13:24:39
Verstappen, turn 1 now.
13:27:42
Sainz is still out on hard from the race start, doing 49.1. Hards look good.
13:28:31
Consider red mid 5. Red mid 5.
13:30:16
Create your paces. Batching the Hamilton and Leclerc. Dispirit the DRS. Negative.
13:32:03
Reminder, back right coggle turn 8 and 12. Gap to Perez now 1.4.
13:33:56
And manage rear slips in braking. Turn 18, turn 1.
13:34:52
Oscar, looks like there could be more pace in high speed. Leclerc managing less than you in turn 10. Sainz still doing 49.1 on hard from the race start.
13:35:17
Leclerc 47.9.
13:35:40
Relative to Leclerc, three tenths is turn 10.

Good.
13:58:28
Okay, Oscar, we'll box this lap. Box this lap. Okay, box.

14:00:04
Okay, 14 laps done. Happy to push the tyre. Leclerc 3.9.

14:13:02
And safety car window is closed, Oscar. Safety car window is closed now.
14:15:12
That's a good lap, Oscar. Hamilton's catching Russell ahead. There's going to be action ahead. We want to be there.

14:24:04
Checkered flag, Oscar. Checkered flag. Cool the car. Cool the car. You're coming back in the pit exit. Well done, mate. P3.
14:24:18
Yep. Yeah, well done, guys. Well, that was an impressive risk from Russell, but yeah, well done. Sorry about the stop. Yeah. Paces good in clean air, just didn't quite have enough, but thank you very much. Very good day and another trophy, some good points, so thank you. And a nice way to go into the break. Yep, we'll keep trucking and we know there's good things to come. You'll need to park up by the boards at the FIA. Number 3 board.
14:24:57
And remember to turn the car pulley off once you've killed the engine.
