OK, lance ready to check.

Yep. Good stuff, sir. Just under six and a half minutes.

OK, that's a radio check for the pitwall.

Yep.

Yeah, radio's all good Lance, that's just er, just bring this down to the top of the position.

OK, so tyres are in. Everyone from P11 ahead is on medium. Lawson, the car directly ahead, is on hard. The two cars behind you, Bottas and Colapinto, they're on hard. Piastri, P17, he's on medium and the guys behind him are hard.

In terms of the cars around you, it's Lawson P12, car directly ahead, he's hard. And then the road directly behind you, Bottas Colapinto there, hard tyre as well.

That's our two minutes to go.

OK, that's now one minute.

That's now 30 seconds. So when you do the launch, Lance, just build a bit of a gap straight away and then we want to do some high-speed weaving before turn 1.

No transcript available

Okay, so building a bit of a gap now if you can. And then we want to do some high-speed weaving before turn one.

Start was target plus three. Target plus three. So high speed weaving now, then a hundred metre lift before turn one.

We want to push through to 123 if we can.

No transcript available

Then as much high speed weaving as you can now before turn 4 and then a 100 metre lift.

Front left is on the low side for first lap, so pushing through turn five and six if we can. You might have to make a space now.

No transcript available

High speed weaving, then a 50m lift before 7 and then we can lean on tyres through 789.

50m lift before turn 10 and then push through turn 11. We need high speed weaving before turn 12.

Let's get a 50m lift and then a break.

So now stay on the racing line and do some front scrubbing if you can. So stay on the racing line and then just go over the top of the fronts.

So, Lance, there'll be three burnouts, so press and hold K0 during the burnouts, and we'll do three burnouts.

That's the last car approaching the grid now.

Save the car. Run switch, save the car, keep it positive, no overtaking. I'll get you some feedback.

Lance, we believe possible front wing damage. Any feedback from your side? Well, I don't know. There's a lot of debris, so... Copy. OK.

Staying out. Keep front temperature if you can.

So everything you can for front temperature for now, Lance. You're doing a good job.

And it's double yellow at turn three, so there's more of a delta there.

So, just stay positive in the double yellow now. Lance, when you're warming tyres, just do that early in the straight and then we need a lift before each corner, okay? Just for P.U. temper. So, straight line weaving where you can and then lift before the corners.

Recommend brake balance plus one. Just for tips.

So that's a bit of weaving is good. And then just make sure you do big lifts before each corner. Let's maximise the PU cooling for now. There's a recovery vehicle on track between turn 3 and 4.

Currently P11. Vade vote.

So, getting some good car speed and then big lifts before each corner, as you are doing. Just maximise that.

Lance, feedback on front wing is all okay for now. So no concerns on front wing from our side.

Big lift into 7 that we can roll through. Lean on the tyre in sector 2.

So, Lance, just keep doing what you're doing. This is good for temps at the minute. Both tyres and PU, so just keep doing what you're doing. Do maintain the big lifts.

Let's just increase the lift to end us straight if you can, Lance. Especially into turn 4.

Lance, tyre temps are very good on both axles, so we can just focus on the PU cooling a little bit more. You're doing a good job.

So it's still double yellow. Albon's car left-hand side is being recovered now. Just a reminder, Lawson ahead, his hard tyre. And Perez, who's behind Fernando, we think he'll get a five-second penalty for a jump start.

So, once you get out of the double yellow, let's get up some car speed up and then a big lift. So, big lift into 4. It's important for PU.

We don't think it will be long. Temps are good on the tyres, so just focus on the PU temp to give us some margin. So big lifts into 1 and 4.

Safety car will be in this lap, so just make sure you get some good car speed before turn 4, then a big lift.

So, when the race restarts, you'll be on lap 7. So, just get nice and close to Lawson in the final sector.

And you can run switch race. Remember you can use early energy into 1, if you need, and into 4.

Safety car just at the pit of track 13.

So that straight into the lift and coast as you are doing is good. Brake balance plus three if you're not racing. DRS will be active exit 11 this lap.

Rapidly increasing early energy into 1, into 4, here we come.

Now on lap 9.

Use the energy, Lance. It must be early.

Lawson will lose DRS now, so early energy into 1 into 4.

We need strat 9 now, strat 9 now.

If we're not going to get past him, then we need to get back into the Lifting Coast.

So, brakes and PU are hot, so back into the lift and coast.

Perez now the car behind.

Let's lift it. Lift and coast is good for us. Let's just keep that up. Don't worry about Perez too much. He's on a different strategy and he has got a five second penalty.

Fernando the car behind now, medium tyre.

So, Lance, let's go strat 10. Strat 10. This is okay for us because these cars pulling a gap will help the temp, so that will come back to us.

That's that. The lift and coast is working. Temps are coming under control but maintain this level. You can do brake balance plus one if you need.

Okay, so you're now on lap 15. We are sticking to plan A. It's all looking good, so it's probably plan A plus. Intent's under control at the minute.

That's how it's balanced at the moment. Yeah, just very bad grip all around.

Car behind now, Colapinto, hard tyre, four seconds.

We recommend maintaining at least this level of lift and coast. Now on lap 17. All the cars behind are on hard tyres, so it's really just about making your plan work, okay? So just do what you need to do. Remember the plan A stop lap.

Let's do Strat 11, Strat 11.

Right, we need MFB, PU3, position 1. MFB, PU3, position 1. Perez possibly has damage.

Push me off completely, yeah? Yeah, copy.

I think he's just anchoring a little bit.

Okay, just gather it back together. You have got Colapinto with DRS behind his hard tyre. Just get back in your rhythm with the medium. You are now on lap 20.

OK, so Perez went into the pitlane behind, so you now got 1.6 back to Colapinto and Piastri who are fighting, so just keep in your rhythm, do your thing Lance. Lap 21 now.

Tyre management is good for us for now.

Let's get MFB, PU3, position 1. MFB, PU3, position 1. Car behind is now Piastri, two seconds back, medium tyre.

So Lance, for now we are thinking something like plan A plus five. So just have that in your head. You're now on lap 24.

The car behind is Colapinto. He'll be hard tyre.

A lot of grainy on the front left.

Copy that, Lance. Understood. We are discussing.

Let's un-use everything now.

Box this lap. Box this lap.

Tire green dry aisle. Tire green dry aisle. Tire green dry aisle before you stop.

Standard for lap lamps. It will be 44 laps to go. It's a hard tyre. Standard outlap.

It's all clear for the next thing, that's Perez free ahead.

Temperature all OK.

So you'll just be straight into the lift and coast target for the intro phase as you are doing.

So that's just checking the tyres from the previous stints. We just need to protect the front left a bit more in the high speed if we can, so protect front left. Turn 8, turn 10.

That's with these lap times we are just keeping Colapinto inside the pit window, so you don't need to go any quicker than this.

Lift and coast is on target, Lance, so just maintain this.

That's 38 laps to go. 38 to go.

Just try and increase management at turn 90 a little bit more, Lance.

Right, so it's 35 to go. So I'm happy this is the right strategy. The tyre deck looks OK on the field for us, on the hard tyre. So it's just making sure you manage to take it a long way.

Let's just watch traction slip turn 3. Just keep an eye on that. Last lap was a little bit high.

Yeah, better run.

So the car ahead of Perez is Zhou. He's on the hard tyre from the start of the race. So those cars are obviously coming back towards you. I think Perez has some damage, so he's struggling to get past him.

OK, that's 33 to go.

So, Perez is really struggling. When you start to attack him, it will be a press and hold on the energy button. Exit 16 and then an early press exit turn 3. They need to be early and a press and hold.

Perez is really struggling in the final corner.

Surbinder, press and hold exit final corner.

Lawson pit exit. 13 laps older, newer, medium tyre.

Okay, good job. So Carahedro is still on the hard tyre from the start of the race, so he's vulnerable as well.

Behind Perez you've got Lawson who's on a new medium.

So, Zhou is around six tenths of a lap slower than us and he's slowing the straight line as well. When you can, just try and manage traction, slip turn 3 and turn 12. I know you're fighting, but just when you mean clear out.

Lawson is now car behind. He's two and a half seconds back.

So, press and hold energy, exit final corner.

Okay, good job. So get back into your management. Car ahead, Ocon is in the same situation. He on his hard from the start of the race.

Slam service. So you see the dark skies. There's possible rain around. We don't see anything on the radar. We think it's very light if it is around, so you might see possible spots, but we're not thinking it's a grip effect for now. Just let us know.

So, this level of lift and coast is good with the cooling track temp, so just maintain what you're doing. Car behind Lawson, 13 lap newer, medium tyre. There's 27 laps to go.

You are catching Ocon ahead by almost a second a lap.

Lance, just keep us updated on any drops on your visor.

So, Lance, we need a driver default, so it's MFA blue, default A, 3-0, OK. MFA blue, default A, 3-0, OK.

Just MFA off when you can.

Remember, Lance, if you do need it, it's a press and hold exit final corner and early press exit turn 3.

So press and hold exit final corner.

You can early energy exit turn 3 if you need.

Okay, good job. Don't worry about loss now. So Bottas ahead is in the same situation. Hard time from the start of the race.

So you are currently P12 with 22 laps to go. We do see the rain moving away, but let us know if there's any spots on the visor. You've got Lawson car behind. He's 9 lap hold medium.

You are currently P12.

Okay, so that's Bottas in, so currently P11. Having to reduce lift and coast by 50 a lap.

So, race leader Sainz is only one behind Lawson, so Lawson will get a blue soon.

Sir Lawson has a blue flag for Sainz.

So, Lance, we need a default. MFA grey. Default C. 1-0. OK. MFA grey. Default C. 1-0. OK.

Switches are all good. Just remember where we... Okay, so that's a blue for Sainz. Let's be efficient.

So that's a blue flag for Sainz. Need to let him go. 1.5 times. Also 1.5 times.

That's 18 laps to go.

Okay, so now just go back into the traction management turn 3 and turn 6 as well.

17 to go. So Colapinto had a slow stop on to medium five laps ago and he is going to catch Lawson in a few laps. So we will see Colapinto in a few laps. He's on a medium tyre.

Excellent. You're doing a really good job. You've got 16 laps to go. Lawson will take a blue from Leclerc probably next lap. I'll let you know when that happens. Just keep an eye on traction and low speed. You're doing a good job. So traction, low speed, turn 3, turn 5, 6.

It's a loss and that's a blue for Leclerc.

So you've got Leclerc 2 back. I'll let you know when we get a blue from him. Just settle into it for now. Lawson did lose a bit of time there and he's got Colapinto with him now as well.

Lance, we'll take some feedback on the tyres when you can. Yeah, just a little rubber, you know.

The grips aren't great. The gauge is getting pretty thin. Copy. For a lot of cars that started on it, it lasted a long time and they were quick at the end of their stints, so I think it is a decent tyre. Stick with it.

So that's a blue for Leclerc. Let's be efficient with that one. Blue for Leclerc.

That's a blue for Leclerc, so you can let him go. Blue for Leclerc.

And that's a blue for Norris. So Lawson and Colapinto are 1.5 behind Norris. So blue flag for Norris.

So, not expecting any more blue flanks, just get back in your rhythm now.

Okay, Lance, so we need MFB, PU3, position 4. MFB, PU3, position 4.

Lawson is still five colour-pinted behind. He was struggling before, so don't worry about them too much for now.

Silenzius, MFB, PU3, position 4. MFB, PU3, position 4.

We're happy. Tyres good to the end. We can reduce lift at coast as well.

So, do keep up the high speed management. It's just a lifted coast. We can reduce in these track temps.

So that's 10 to go. Happy with the tyre sets coming back with a reduced lift at coast. That's good.

That's nine to go. That's nine to go.

The wind has increased during the race, so we think the tyres should come back. If the tyres are OK, it might have just been that bad feeling.

So Colapinto will be putting Lawson under stress as well. You can ignore any fuel alarms you see.

And that is 7 to go, 7 to go. Lawson under pressure from Colapinto this lap. Eyes forward. Keep it up, doing a good job.

Okay, Lance, that's six to go. Six to go. Lawson has lost DRS. So the tyre's all good from our side, so if you are doing any saving at 9, you can reduce that now.

Okay, so Colapinto now, car behind.

So they slowed each other when they're fighting. So just eyes forward for now, Lance.

And that's five laps to go. So just tyres forward. It's all good now, tyres good to the end. You're up here 11.

So that's four to go. We can go one click rearwards if you need on brake balance.

Still slippery track warnings and debris offline. Middle of the track potentially turn 12. Keep an eye out.

Well, that's three laps to go.

So that debris may still be there, middle of the track, turn 12.

Let's do strap 10. You can do that now. Strap 10. Two laps to go.

That debris may still be there towards the end of the race, but you know where it is now.

OK, so this is the final lap. We are P11. Let's do Strat 9. Strat 9.

Use early energy now.

Okay, that debris is still there at return 12.

Thank you, mate. Good job. Good job. That's the flag. That is a P11, so I know we want more than that. That's a really good drive. That's a really good drive. Very well managed.

So, steady on the in-lap. We need a steady in-lap. Make sure you go off-line for the pick-up. You can do run-switch warm-up. Run-switch warm-up.

And then it's MFB PU1 position 12. MFB PU1 position 12.

Yes, the switch is good, Lance. Just make sure it's a steady in-lap. Take all the pick-up you can. Nice and slow on the way in, please.

Nice and steady. Stay offline, take the pickup. That's a really good race. Well managed.

So you'll see on the yellow flags for the cars stopping on the podium, but we'll carry on to the petri.

When you pull up, it's P1, five seconds, then P0, please.
