13:55:04
Copy all of that.
13:57:02
Radio is quite poor. Did you say three minutes?
13:57:10
Yeah, mate, I have no radio, sorry.
13:57:19
Liam, radio check. Yeah, Patrick, I hear you.
13:57:28
Pierre is walking to the grid. He will radio check when he's here. OK.
13:58:06
Roger. Checking him. Copy. Loud and clear.
13:58:22
Gasly, new medium. Everyone else is unused.
14:00:39
Ok Liam, let's work hard on those tyres and remove the shine.
14:00:44
You are really close to target. Too shallow. Really close. Good job. Okay, weaving where you can. High speed weaving.
14:01:49
Handbrakes are in a very good place. Good job.
14:02:01
Offset zero. Keep up the weaving. Ankara starting to slow down around safety car line. Keep up the weaving.
14:02:16
QAT offset one, offset zero, on one standard tyre warming.
14:02:34
And let's make sure we don't come to a full stop until your grid is flat, please.
14:03:18
OK, last car forming now.
14:04:41
Offset one and we'll start the saving turn 11 when it's safe. Offset one.
14:05:03
Mode 6, click of attack, DRS enabled.
14:05:17
Me and George Hulkenberg, we focus on Gasly.
14:05:53
Overtake available. If you need, let's change that DRS, please.
14:05:59
Tyre energy is looking good at the moment.
14:07:06
Currently in shape 4, back to shape 3, baseline. Back to shape 3, baseline.
14:08:20
Ok, still good on tyres. Let's make sure we stay in that DRS train. Behind you, Hulkenberg.
14:08:43
Gasly, no DRS. Just lost a heartbeat.
14:10:44
OK, good lap, Liam. Let's keep focusing on clean laps. How is the front under rotation for you? Manageable? Happy that helps your stability? Yes, manageable. Copy.
14:11:57
Strat 4 for performance, currently in 2. Strat 4. We need mode 8 for a couple of laps. Let's build up a bit of battery. Hulkenberg 1.4.
14:12:20
Repeat the last part. Mode 8, currently in 6th. Two laps in mode 8.
14:13:11
On Lerm, we have a decent balance to help the rear tyres. We are happy to push a small step more. Exit turn 67. Only place Gasly is gaining time. Exit turn 67.
14:13:34
Let's try to stay within DRS. There is Perez fighting with the Haas behind.
14:14:23
Ok, good job catching the DRS. Let's try to stay within DRS. We have Berman and Perez behind. 2.2 seconds.
14:16:25
Perez 1.8 behind.
14:16:52
I will keep focusing on the front. I'll keep you posted on Perez. 1.7.
14:16:58
Back in the rhythm. Clean laps. You're doing a very good job.
14:17:15
Back to strat 2 when you can, currently in 4. Perez 1.5.
14:18:03
Ok, Perez is very very close to your DRS now. I let you focus. Compared to Gasly, it's only turn 67, we are losing time.
14:20:55
Focus ahead. Focus on Gasly.
14:21:09
We are missing one tenth for the last DRS.
14:22:07
Eight more laps. Tyres are good. Battery is good. We focus on the car ahead. Good job.
14:23:01
Battery is in a good place if you need to defend. Allez, tu restes.
14:26:40
Five more laps. Head down.
14:27:49
Okay, I'm back in the rhythm. Back in the rhythm. Mode 6. Back to mode 6. We can still get them back. Four more.
14:28:08
Oh my god, mate, he just locks up! Yellow turn 10. Heads up, yellow turn 10.
14:28:25
Yellow turn 9, double yellow turn 10. Head down. So you respect the yellow, double yellow and then back in the rhythm.
14:28:53
Three more laps. Let's try where we can.
14:29:03
Infiniti Stability, entry 9.
14:29:38
And we still have the same turn 10 heads up.
14:29:59
Virtual safety car, virtual safety car, stay close to zero. Stay charging.
14:30:07
Stay close to zero.
14:30:11
Make sure we don't lose time. Stay close to zero on the dash.
14:30:18
Oh my god, man. Mode 3 in the background. Mode 3 in the background.
14:30:26
Let's get ready. Let's get ready. We never know.
14:30:31
Stay close to zero and keep right temperatures.
14:31:11
On ILEAM, we still have to respect the yellow on double yellow turn 10. This next lap, last lap.
14:31:27
Let's see if they move the car. We get ready. Stay close to 0 on the dash. Respect the yellow.
14:31:36
Okay, they've moved the car. They have moved the car. Keep respecting the yellow. We might have one more lap of racing.
14:32:11
Charge off, charge off, get ready. One more racing lap. Charge off, get ready. Let's make it.
14:33:38
Mate, the timing of all of that is unbelievable.
14:34:18
Okay Liam, obviously a very frustrating P9, just about there.
14:34:26
Yeah, I don't even have words for what I just watched.
14:34:32
We'll review what's happened at the VST restart. We lost quite a bit there.
14:34:43
Take it as positive.
14:34:46
Yeah, copy that. And then you open a bit more in the corner. Loud and clear.
14:35:21
Ok, we stop at the bridge and when you stop at the bridge it will be P1, wait for the dash and P0 plus. Copy. I know it's going to be frustrating, but now we need a big reset. We've got another important session coming.
14:35:53
OK, let's make sure we go to P0. Thank you.
