Ready to check? Yep, that's loud and clear.

So you've got seven minutes to the formation lap.

OK Lance, just a radio check from the pitwall.

Yeah, all good. Okay, so that's now five minutes to the formation lap.

Okay, so it's just under two and a half minutes to the formation lap. Not very exciting on tyre choice. Everyone's on medium. There's a couple of cars we don't see. You've got Albon in the pitlane and we're not sure about Sainz in the minute P5, but everyone's medium.

And that is now two minutes.

That's now one minute.

Cancel, that's 30 seconds. We want to make space immediately after the launch. Happy to go steady through turn 1. Obviously we want to push sector 1 after turn 1, so make space when you can. Before and in turn 1.

Transcribed by ESO. Translated by —

OK, so trying to make a gap before turn 1. The priority is to push through sector 1.

Start was target minus eleven.

Have a lift into turn 7 and into turn 8.

Take some weaving before 11 if you can. Then a hundred metre lift. Good stop on the brakes. Let's make space in 10-11. You want to push down to turn 12. High speed weave into turn 12 as well. So you can make a bit of space now. And then high speed weaving. And then a hundred metre lift and a good stop at 12.

So, a hundred metre lift and then a good stop. And then again, you can make space after turn 12 before turn 13. So, making space now. We do want to push through 13-14, just the left-hand side tyres.

And then slow for turn 15. Let's make another gap. We want to push through 16 to 18.

So, one good stop now and then stay on the racing line.

And it'll be three burnouts, Lance. Three burnouts.

Make those burnouts short and crisp.

That's the last car approaching the grid now.

So, 18 laps to go. It will be DRS active exit turn 11 this lap. Car behind Gasly is Piastri.

Suggest brake balance plus two.

Early energy is available. Exit 11 if you need.

Lift and coast is good for us. Just watch traction slip for the rear left at turn 11.

Colapinto ahead does not have DRS.

So it's 15 laps to go. 15 laps to go. Car behind is now Piastri but he's not in DRS.

Early energy is available at exit 11 if you ever need it.

Suggested of a brake balance plus one. Traction slip turn 11 was good this lap.

That's 13 laps to go, 13 laps to go. Tire management is good for us, Lance.

Piastri behind does have DRS.

That is 12 laps to go.

That's 11 to go. Tyre management is all good for us. Group ahead will slow down as Piastri goes through. Eyes forward.

Okay, that's ten to go, Lance. Ten laps to go.

So that's just on tyres. Keep up the high speed management and the traction slip, that's all good. We see you reducing lift and coast slightly, that's OK. So you can keep reducing lift and coast but keep up the management elsewhere.

That's nine laps to go.

So, Lance, just maintain this lift and coast. No less than what you've just done this lap.

For info, Gasly behind out of DRS for now. I think he's been asked to manage more.

That's six laps to go. Six to go.

So, Lance, for fuel, we need to increase lift and coast by 50 metres a lap, OK? Increase lift and coast by 50 metres a lap.

Tsunoda is ahead of Colapinto and Piastri here, struggling. So that's the car that's slowing those guys down.

So that's lifted post is better, so if you just do that again please. You've got four laps to go. Four to go.

Right, so three laps to go, three laps to go. Car behind Gasly has already got three strikes for track limits, so he has to be careful now. You've got none.

That's two laps to go, two laps to go. Remember you can use early energy exit 11 when you need it.

So this will be the final lap.

Let's use a late energy press into 12, late energy.

Lack of air, good job. So that's the flag there. Let's get a nice steady in-lap lap. So big lift, nice steady in-lap. Ignore the delta. Let's take the pick-up. So go off-line where you can, please. That's important. So taking the pick-up and then steady in-lap.

Switch saving as you can.

Okay, Lance, we need MFB1 to position 12. MFB1, PE1 to position 12, please.

And then it's just run switch warm up.

OK, so the switches look good to me, Lance, so nice and steady on the way in. That was P13 in the end.

So, staying offline where you can, just get that pick up.

As you are doing is good. I will box this lap into the pitlane nice and steady.

So P1, five seconds, MP0.
