Ready, check.

Radio check, Mark.

Yep, radio check only. Thank you. Sorry about that. Multiple people talking.

Radio check through the steering wheel. Copy. Yep, good for me too.

So what's different about this fire-off ollie is that we leave the limiter off until the engine's fired up and then I'll ask you to put the limiter on, OK? That's a standard thing for the grid. It's to do with where the lap triggers are. So if we put it on too early it confuses the energy deployment for the first lap.

Faith, can I have some water please?

Yeah, Ollie, track temperature's continuing to climb. Now the sun's out. It's up another three degrees from earlier. I'm thinking maybe another 0.1 wouldn't be a bad thing. 0.2.

Question for Dave really. Can I practice the clutch drops before the start of the race? Will I be able to see where I am on the clutch target?

No, you won't, I'm afraid.

From Dave, yeah.

Or at least I believe you shouldn't be able to.

OK, Oli, we've got Gasly and Lawson ahead of you on new mediums. Everyone else on used mediums.

Limiter off, please. On.

Do you want mode slow for the practice start on the grid?

Float slow is correct.

OK, mate. Good luck.

How was the start?

All good. Procedure was good. Touchdown was good.

OK, Oli, mode DRS for the start.

Last car is on the grid.

Right push. Right push, please.

Sweet. So it's Nico ahead. Yuki, 11. I'm behind, obviously.

DRS is enabled. Albon point three behind.

Albon point five.

Albon, one second behind.

Albon does not have DRS.

Car behind is Perez, 1.1 behind.

Okay, Elise, just some feedback. Nico tending to carry more speed through turn 1 exit through turn 2. You're quicker through 6 and 7, but we're happy from a tyre point of view with that.

Perez 0.7. Suggest left toggle to help with front under rotation at turn 1.

This is lap 5.19 to go at the end of this one.

Perez, point four, DRS.

Your point one second behind Nico. One second behind Nico.

OK, 0.8, so you do have DRS, Perez, 0.7 behind you.

I have more pace than this. Copy.

You have DRS. Press point 4 behind.

Perez, point four.

How much more place do you think you've got? Obviously DRS is giving you six tenths.

Okay, Lawson 4.6 ahead.

Car behind is Perez.

Lawson's last lap, 12.9, but Gasly 2 is now going to be held up.

Perez. Pull.

OK, Aldi, please go back to Lifting Coast. Two times 50 metres. Turn 1 and turn 4.

Nico, 1.2 behind.

Nico, 1.3 behind. Perez, 2.3 in front.

Gasly and Lawson are quicker than us by about two tenths.

Nico, 4.1 behind, no DRS.

Lap time deleted for turn 4.

That was the Perez overtaking moment.

Olli, can we have multifunction B10, position 2, please?

Nico 0.8 with DRS.

Nico, 0.68 laps to go.

ECO 0.7. Seven laps to go.

Car behind is Albon.

Albon point nine with DRS. Six laps to go.

Alpha point four.

No more lifted coast. No more lifted coast.

Carburetor height 0, 1.9.

Car behind is Hamilton, point six.

Hamilton, point three.

I can't find Colapinto. Nico's retired.

Yellow flags 9 and 10. Double yellow 10 to 11 for Nico. He's on the right-hand side out of 9.

Sorry, correction, 10. He's on the right-hand side, out of 10.

Colapinto, one second, no DRS. Three laps to go at the end of this one.

BSC, BSC.

Stay positive on your delta. You're in the double yellow zone.

Two laps to go at the end of this one.

I'm just pointing out we're losing quite a lot of time braking at turn one. Assuming car balance. Yeah, I just struggle with the car quite a lot. Copy.

And stay positive on the delta. Must stay positive on the delta.

Positive once in each marshalling sector.

Still double yellows in that area, 9 to 11.

Wait for the restart. BSC ending.

1.4 behind with DRS.

Next car seven seconds behind.

OK, Oli, that's the chequered flag.

So that was P14. Obviously a lot of work to do for tomorrow, but sturdy days. Don't worry, we'll get on top of it.

Yeah, I'm really struggling there. Tough one. Let's regroup. Yeah, no worries. We'll have a chat about it and see what we can do.

Charge on, please. Can we have charge on? On a positive charge.

If you come to stop in the Parc fermé area, when you do so, to go from E2 to E1. And it's not difficult to do E0.

FYI, Norris won the race from Piastri, Verstappen third.

Leclerc 4th, Sainz 5th, Russell 6th, Gasly 7th and Perez last point in eighth.
