He's on his outside, sorry.

So, Sainz car in front, outlap on the soft tyre.

So we'll be pushing next time, so we're going to stick to our normal outlap procedure, so we'll have...

Flap procedure, so we'll have a full lift in three.

150, 36 and 7.

Clear of all traffic behind. Next car pushing is Fernando. He's in the last corner now.

Okay, no traffic behind. Everyone behind on outlaps.

So 150 through 6 and 7. Use DRS down to 8 if you can.

Okay, so weaving down to 11 and...

Brake 3. Just need brake 3.

We're going to follow Sainz pushing next lap.

Next lap, brake 3 and we're good to go. Gap 1.5.

Okay, Esteban, recharge on and we need to box, please.

Box please. We need to box the car now.

Shifting is allowed.

But we are boxing this lap, please.

Change gears, brake, steer as normal.

That was normal, but we do need to box, please.

Box please. We'll let you know if we need any other action, okay?

So you are clear of all traffic behind, no one pushing.

For info, it was a tenth and a half quicker than Pierre's first lap as well.

DRS first lap as well.

Well, OK, so, lock snap, please.

Okay, so, box now, please.

Down 7.0.

We are going to slow the pace down. We are going to slide through the pitlane, please.

MSR, keep going, you're good on traffic.

What did you see?

In which case we will need to stop.

Stop as in comment box.

Come in, box. I'll keep you informed, alright? But just for now, continue.

But just for now, continue the run as you normally would.

So, nice steady pace. We'll drive through the pitlane again, help cool those tyres down.

And we can go brake 5 as well.

So we have got some cars just leaving the pitlane now. Norris doing a start from the end.

Okay, mate, so we are driving straight through, please. Driving straight through.

That's a pit at the end of the line.

Still clear of traffic behind at the moment.

Clear of traffic now.

Traffic now in front, 6 seconds, Hulkenberg, out lap.

We'll clap so we can keep following him.

A bit of feedback compared to Pierre. Turn 11.

Entry to mid, carrying a little bit more speed in and losing on the exit there. Lose about a tenth in total.

We're going to continue dropping tyre temps.

Prep the surface. Good drive through turn 11 as well. Fernando in front. Five seconds out lap.

Let's prep the surface and brake 3, please. Brake 3 to start the lap.

It's okay, we're going to prioritise it on the used tyres anyway.

Aero P3 after turn 10, please, and boxing now.

Okay, no launch. No launch.

OK mate, thanks for that. So we will get some comments when you're back in.

So, exit turn 2, we've got Stroll on his...

Second cool-up.

Stroll 10 seconds now ahead.

Seconds. Albon four and a half behind.

So, Albon two seconds, 13 behind him is Verstappen on high fuel, so we just want to stay in front of him.

Five seconds to stroll now. We're in a good spot here.

Any more, let's go to brake 3.

Okay, so we're in a good position now. Three seconds to stroll now. Verstappen, 11 behind high fuel.

All at this point, Verstappen 6 behind High Fuel running, so watch for him, please. He is pushing.

Okay, so Verstappen...

Just behind now.

Three seconds. High fuel running. Time lap.

Stroll's third lap on his first lap.

Lap on his first set as well.

As well, so I'm not sure if he's going to do another one.

Let's do another one. Let's focus on getting the tyre temperatures down and see what we get out of it.

Copy. I got some decent vibration in the brakes.

OK, understood. We'll have a look at that.

You are clear of all traffic behind.

I'm just going to keep bringing these temperatures down and happy to drive through the pitlane once again to help lower them as well.

Yeah, I'll come 1km away.

Okay, there's a little bit of front locking just starting to appear in a couple of places this year, you can see, so we'd like to give this a go and see if this can...

We're going to make a positive improvement.

So, 19 behind is Perez.

Perez, likely high fuel.

So we're going to box now, drive through the pitlane.

Okay, so happy to box now, drive through. Box now, drive through.

OK, so we're going to keep this next...

Keep this next lap nice and steady. Keep bringing those tyre temperatures down. Hulkenberg on the start-finish straight now as

Right now, it's just box, so clear pit exit.

Okay, so we've got Pierre on an outlap, the car behind.

And out of the last corner, Ricciardo now.

It has boxed, so...

Okay, so just keep bringing these tyre temperatures down. Still on the high side.

15 seconds behind is Verstappen. High fuel.

Verstappen seven seconds behind.

High fuel running, so he's pushing.

Keep bringing these tyre temperatures down. Still a little hot on the rear.

Okay, we just need to wake up the surface temps at the end of the lap.

Verstappen, 5 behind now, time lap.

Verstappen comes past. I want to leave a decent gap.

Let's go brake 3 now. Brake 3.

Good to go when you're ready.

Turn the straights on the in-lap particularly into turn 8.

For turn 8, please, just have a look at bouncing into them.

I don't plan to use this circuit.

There's quite a lot of vibration increasing.

I understood.

I'm just going to recharge on until exit 7 and then push down to turn 8.

Recharge off, push to turn 8.

That's good for me. Let's box now please. We'll keep recharge on. Box now and a practice pitstop.

7-0.

No launch. No launch.

Next corner, you'll see him come past.

That's right.

And then Piastri, the car behind him, about to start a second cooler.

Cool lap. We've got Norris.

Second cool lap. We'll probably catch him up with our outlap pace.

Can we go brake 5, please? Norris, turn 5, please.

1.50.367

Weaving after 10 and brake 3.

OK, watch for Leclerc starting a time lapse.

Box this lap, please. Box this lap.

Pierre aborted his first lap as well, I believe.

With a big lock.

Sorry, we're just honing in on the balance we need, so we're going to box this lap.

It was understeer everywhere except there. Yeah, we're looking at that right now.

OK, understood.

Yeah, if everything was normal...

P2 please. P2.

There's the car in front. He's on a second cool lap now and we've got Verstappen.

Brake 3, brake 5, sorry.

Correction, you're already there. OK, we've got Sainz just behind now. He's on a slow lap.

Watch for Stroll coming through behind starting a timed. He's about three behind.

Watch for Stroll. Clear behind.

Watch for Stroll. Clear behind Stroll.

Okay, so plenty of margin here. Pierre in front on a slow lap.

I'm having to keep a tyre under control.

No traffic behind.

OK, so 40 seconds margin.

He is six behind.

Perez, looks like we've got Magnussen coming through now. Magnussen, three seconds, timed.

Let's go, brake 3, bit of weaving and we're good to go.

We're weaving and we're good to push.

Clear of traffic.

Let's make the gap 1.5.

Lap times for info, so Pierre 21.1.

Yeah, the car that's in 10 now.

And the brakes are square.

Inspector, three burnouts and a start on the left.

We've got Magnussen stopped halfway between turn 7 and turn 8 on the left-hand side of the track for info.

Charge on. We just want to make a gap to Pierre behind so we can do our pitstop.

Keep your pace up on the way. We've got a yellow flag. Exit turn 7. Magnussen stopped on the left-hand side. Keep to the right through there. Nice and steady, please.

Leclerc, Magnussen on the left.

Overtaking reminder and then we're going to box.

First car will do a practice pitstop.

There is the car behind.

Box, box, practice, pit stop.

No launch. No launch.

OK, we'll get some Comma 20 plugged in.
