OK, so green light. Be a little bit of a wait, not too long.

Okay mate, so looking for plus two on the dash.

Okay, three cars to go in front.

Two to go, Perez and Zhou. Try and get a good drive through 13 to make the gap early. No traffic behind.

Gap in front four. Four and a half. Good to go.

Stroll starting a time lap behind 2.5.

Behind him, Sainz just finished a timed.

Okay, so no traffic behind at the moment. We'll have Magnussen coming through. He's about 10 seconds back.

Okay, Magnussen coming through now. Four seconds. Happy with modify usage, so we're going to go for another lap after this.

Magnussen coming through and then clear behind him. All others on out or slow laps. Copy. Just have a look at bottoming, braking, turn 1. Understood. We'll have a look. OK, mates, so first lap times for a couple of people. Bottas 14.7, Sargeant 14.4. Pierre 15.1 on the hard tyre. Almost everyone on the medium at this stage.

Yeah, we do see a little bit of touch in there, Esteban. I'm just going to have a look and see if we want to adjust brake balance at all.

Ok mate, so two cars to go in front, no traffic behind. Just one now, Zhou, in front. Let's get a good drive out of 12 if we can.

OK, recharge on. Stroll time lap four seconds behind.

Okay, we'll just do a quick compare. I'll get back to you with some driving advice shortly. P14 at the moment. Leclerc's fastest 14.27, very similar to yours. Clear of traffic behind. What's your main balance limitation, please, when you can?

And there's some very poor grip into turn 9 exit, turn 10 entry.

Still clear of traffic behind. So main time losses to Pierre. He's done basically the same lap time on the hard tyre. He's apex turn 9 and entry to turn 10. He's just carrying a little bit more into turn 10 there, braking a bit later. Magnussen time lap 4.5 behind. Only Magnussen pushing behind. Just Zhou to go in front as well. Hamilton behind outlap.

You can hold this position. You're good to go from now, I think. Zhou's just letting Magnussen past in front.

Okay, watch for Norris. Time lap behind now four seconds.

Norris coming through now. Car behind him. Stroll also pushing. Four seconds.

Stroll pushing behind.

I'll call it on Hulkenberg outlap. There should be clear of traffic at this point.

Okay, so Pierre's third lap on the hard tyre was a 13.3. Main time losses turn 8, 9, 10. Just carrying more speed into each of those corners.

He braked slightly earlier for 7 and that helps his sequence through 8. Braking point for 8 is the same, just carrying more speed in for a similar exit. Leclerc behind on an out lap. Only Pierre, who's about 10 seconds behind now, pushing. Two cars to go in front. Let's go for one more lap and then we'll box.

OK, recharge on and box this lap, box this lap.

Okay, Pierre is just doing pitstop. I'll get back to you shortly. No traffic behind at the moment.

Stroll, time lap four and a half behind. If we can have an aero cruise after turn 10, please, with the aero P4. Stroll three seconds timed. Clear behind.

Okay, so clear track behind. Aero P4, 5th gear, out of turn 10 and then box.

Leclerc on a time lap 5 behind.

Leclerc, three behind and box now, please, box now.

Demand in. Okay, stop on the box and switch off.

Okay, so we've got Piastri on the start-finish straight, starting a lap with Perez just finishing.

Albon just going into turn 1 now. He's just finished a timed lap.

So, no traffic behind.

Lap time so far, we've got Zhou on an 11.9, Bottas 12.2, Sargeant 11.8.

So, car in front, Sargeant, he could be doing double cool, he's on a slow lap.

So Sargeant will be doing a double call. Perez, the car in front, also on his first slow lap. So let's go. Brake 3, please. Brake 3.

Tsunoda starting lap now. I expect Perez to do another cool. No traffic behind.

Okay, so going into double cool, no traffic behind.

Major balance limitations please. Car behind Ricciardo just finished a tight.

Yeah, a little bit of instability on one and some understeer on the rest of the lap, a little bit as well. Understood. Would you like a flap adjust for a second lap? No. Okay mate, understood. Okay, so we're P17 at the minute, similar lap time to Bottas. Pierre's first lap 11.6. I'll give you some driving advice shortly as best I can. Going into double cool reminder here. No traffic behind.

Can we go SOC 3, please? SOC 3.

Okay, so major differences to Pierre. We do have Sargeant coming through on a time lap. He's five seconds behind.

Sergeant, three seconds and then clear behind him.

Okay, so Pierre's braking later into turn 1 with a slightly cleaner exit. He is getting on throttle sooner between 2 and 3 and carrying more speed into 3. He's braking slightly earlier into 7. Concentrating on the exit there. I've got Perez's time lap behind, 1.5 coming through.

I'm still clear of traffic behind, so I'm behind on slow laps.

Minimum speed higher for Pierre, 8 and 9, and he brakes later into 10, but loses at the mid-corner, so I'd say our reference there is OK. The rest of the lap is neutral. OK, well, everyone is slower then. How do you want me to manage that? No, I'm just giving you the information, mate. Let's go for another lap, see what we get.

Can we have PU13, position 6, please? PU13, position 6, no traffic behind.

OK, that's good. So we'll go for one more lap after this and we'll come in.

Only car pushing behind is Bottas. He's about 10 seconds back.

Bottas six and a half behind time lap. Let's try and focus on building surface temperature through the last couple of corners, 12 and 13. Let's have a good drive through those if we can. Two cars to go in front. Bottas four and a half behind pushing.

Bottas going through. Clear behind him.

Gap, recharge off, good to go.

OK, recharge on and we'll box this lap. We'll do an aero cruise after 10. Same again.

Car behind Magnussen just finished a timed, so should have no traffic.

How are the tyres on the second lap?

The weather is still OK. OK, copy that.

Okay mate, we've got a good read and a few things, we can have a look at the timesheet when we're back in.

Magnussen behind keeping his pace up. Probably boxing this time. We'll just watch for him if he pushes through. We'll do aero P4 again after turn 10.

OK, so let's box now and practice pitstop please. Box now, practice pitstop.

20. No launch.

OK, so we'll get some comments when you're plugged in.

Okay, so it should be clear pit exit.

Next car back is Hamilton at turn 13, so you can drop back for Bottas if you like.

Okay, I'm 15 laps.

And we'll go into status 3, saving 7 and 8 from now.

Gaps behind five seconds to Leclerc and then five seconds behind him to Hotter.

We would like to increase the lift at turn 7, please, before saving that.

OK, reference lap time, Stroll in front, 16.3, Magnussen 16.5.

I have 11 more laps.

OK mate, how's the balance?

He's starting to take off a little bit now.

Okay, understood.

Okay, so I think we can go forward slightly on brake bias. We could go up a bit as well just to support that rear at low speed.

Okay, Ricciardo lapping 17.0 for effort, 17.0.

Seven more time laps. Seven more.

Gap behind. Four and a half to the clamp.

PU13, position 2 when you can. PU13, position 2.

Pierre on the hard tyre lapping about 16.8 for reference.

Four laps remaining.

Gap behind Leclerc. Three and a half seconds to Perez.

I'll be pushing to the end of the lap, it's going to be quick.

OK, that's the chequered flag, so we will cool the car from here and go to the grid to do the start.

Okay, so we'll be doing three burnouts at the end of the lap. We're starting on the right-hand side this time, and then we're still going to push to pit entering, but we won't do a pitstop at this time.

Was the TIF behaving normally in turn 1 or not? I think so, yeah. Just looking at it. No concerns. We'll have a look through in the office though. I think there's a few things we can look at. It seems like the car was turning in many times, you know. It was on and off turning. Okay, understood. We'll have a close look at that back in the office. It's difficult to advise on times around here as well, sorry. There's a bit of a mixed bag in terms of people saving and obviously with traffic. There's a consistent run until Norris came past, obviously. So we can look at it all in a bit more detail later. So three burnouts, please. Start on the right and then pushing to pit entry.

And push to pit entry.

No practice pitstop, just roll into the box please, nice and steady.

Alright, we'll get a few comments when you're plugged in.
