George Russell
10:26:06
So, just over four minutes to green light. We can switch off at the end of the pitlane.
10:29:19
So we can go to P2.
10:31:55
And turn 12 also looks pretty wet. Sir Albon's just opening his lap now.
10:32:14
So, yellow flag, turn 12. That's Lawson.
10:32:45
So, Lawson reversing onto the track, yeah.
10:34:14
So, you've got a double yellow, turn 12, G-O.
10:34:19
Gap is clear. How are we going off? Just locking off, I guess.
10:34:30
So they're just going straight on down the escape road. So we'll keep pushing next lap.
10:34:38
I can't get a tap on these tyres.
10:35:00
So, target temp as hot as you can. Had another double yellow, it's cleared now. Turn 12, that's Stroll.
10:35:48
I'm on ice here.
10:36:02
Yeah, copy that. We are building temperature though. Gap behind. Three seconds now to Lawson. We had a yellow flag at turn 4. Stroll again.
10:36:14
Lost her. One second.
10:36:40
So fastest lap, Ocon, 30.1.
10:37:17
5 is frozen. Backing off. I don't seem to be improving at the moment, mate. The tyre's just not working. There doesn't seem to be that much standing water, so think about inters. I don't know if anyone else has done it. Valtteri put the inter on, just gone straight on turn 4.
10:37:36
Traffic behind us.
10:37:40
I lost him at two and a half seconds.
10:39:25
So, we've got a yellow flag, turn three. Red flag, red flag. Delta positive.
10:39:38
Strat 1. Can we get across the line for that lap or not? Negative. So Colapinto in the barriers here, turn 3.
10:41:07
So box, box, stop on your marks and switch off.
10:41:43
Minus one percent aero balance. Copy that.
10:41:48
This one, no grip, no roar, nothing from the rear axle.
10:44:28
Dan, forget it! Forget it, Dan! Dan, forget it! And we have blue for position 12.
10:44:58
Turn on 4, keep in front of me. Yeah, we could switch off. We've got two minutes and fifteen.
10:45:51
So, currently expecting to get five push laps.
10:46:08
Copy. But then we do three consecutive. Slow, fast. But we take a call on the third of what we do. Affirm.
10:46:19
Yeah, copy. Yes, yes, yes.
10:46:46
And we'll have green 12, position 4.
10:46:57
So, 20 seconds, we'll fire up and hold.
10:47:03
No transcript available
10:47:30
So, just for your information, the reference lap on your dash will be the lap that was red flagged. Understood.
10:48:53
I can see you being put off the exit here. I always put me in a wheel.
10:49:03
So, first car lap, Gasly at 12 seconds.
10:49:20
Gasly on a lap at 10 seconds.
10:49:26
Good gaps ahead of all the cars ahead.
10:49:45
Gasly still at eight seconds.
10:50:00
Pierre Gasly at nine seconds.
10:50:06
Strat 11.
10:50:50
Gap behind. Four seconds to gas limit.
10:51:28
I have understeer at turn 80 and oversteer at turn 90. I have understeer at turn 80 and oversteer at turn 90. I have understeer at turn 80 and oversteer at turn 90. I have understeer at turn 80 and oversteer at turn 90.
10:52:22
So Piastri has done a 30.1. Just need to keep building temperature here.
10:53:28
So we have two more laps.
10:53:48
Gap behind. Four seconds behind. Gasly, Gasly. Seven seconds behind Gasly. Timing. End of this. So gap behind now is seven seconds, so Gasly is backing off. Try and push through some of these cars. Build the gap at the end of the lap.
10:54:15
You can get blocked here, mate. Quiet, then.
10:54:28
Gap after Gasly. So, Biermann at seven seconds. He's still pushing. Gap behind Gasly is nine seconds. So, we're good on time to let these cars go. I'm worried about him. Biermann on a lap. Yeah. Four seconds. Biermann now for three. Two seconds. So, Gasly not on a lap. And then we've got Hulk at ten seconds. His next car is on a lap. Still waiting for him to go at turn 12. And then it's Albon. So, Biermann's got to go consecutive. So, just Albon. So, it goes Strat on the next lap. Build that gap to Biermann. Hulkeberg at four seconds.
10:57:00
OK, so strat 1, box, box. That's P2.
10:57:18
Water level is getting pretty bad now. Can't see anything in this race. I sort of complain a little bit here and there. Yeah, Apex will get to lift coming up the hill then.
10:58:41
So it's box, box, stop on the box and switch off.
10:59:07
That was good on the box.
11:01:08
So, we've got two minutes until green light, so we'll switch off down the end.
11:01:17
How many laps on this tyre are we going to get?
11:01:22
So we could get ten timed here.
11:01:56
So, turn 6 is a diff high speed, just for information.
11:02:05
What does the diff look like through there at the moment? I've just currently got oversteer.
11:02:26
So it's fully locked through turn 6 currently.
11:02:38
And we suggest pre-selecting blue 14.
11:02:48
Is it Lawson or Tsunoda ahead? I can't see.
11:02:54
So, 25 seconds to go before we can fire up. Not sure until we pull out of the pitlane who it is.
11:03:38
That will be Lawson ahead of you and then Tsunoda ahead of him.
11:04:08
That's a good gap. Always going to get people pushing past you.
11:04:31
There's probably not a huge amount of standing water. Maybe a bit through 7. We've got Piastri going out there on Inter. We'll just set that one and we'll focus on what we do with the plan.
11:06:47
So, keep pushing him.
11:07:12
Sir, inter-tyre looks quicker now, so we will box.
11:07:35
So it will be strat 1 to box. You've got Lawson at six seconds, now five. Let me know if you need any flap. Negative. Confirming. Plus two on pressure. Paper. Lawson at six seconds.
11:08:15
Blue, 40, position 3. Box, box, easier to the box for pitstop and go again.
11:08:48
Traffic on exit. So straight out, clear currently. Got cars that are all boxing.
11:08:57
Gap ahead 2. Piastri on his first lap of the 28.9. You've got four seconds to head to Tsunoda. Clear on exit. Everyone is boxing here. We'll go for at least two consecutives here to start this run.
11:09:20
We can get six laps in here.
11:09:27
Maybe tyre for six. Gap ahead eight and a half seconds to Tsunoda. And Piastri on that inter-second lap 27.1. That was two consecutive laps.
11:10:13
Okay, so seven seconds behind to Stroll on an outlap.
11:10:20
B-Strat 10.
11:10:23
We're just going to go push, push.
11:12:04
Double yellow, turn 2. Complete this lap.
11:12:15
Tabu yellow, tabu yellow.
11:12:28
Red flag, red flag. No overtaking. Strat 1. Box, box.
11:12:38
Stay with these pressures. Eiffel, keep on top of those tyres, Eiffel's headlap.
11:13:49
So, box, box, stop on your marks and switch off.
11:14:10
Depends where... Yeah, well, I mean, if I lost temperature, man, put a new set on, bump it up a bit.
11:14:24
Sounds good on the box.
11:17:22
Thanks. Three minutes to green flag.
11:17:40
So we'll get three timed laps here.
11:18:09
So, we are currently thinking with those three times it will be fast, fast, fast. We'll take a view on tyre attempt end of lap one, whether that needs to be a back off and then go again.
11:19:05
And it goes without saying, but getting a nice clear gap ahead of us for that final lap will be key.
11:19:15
Yeah, you're going to have to help me there as you can't see. I will do.
11:19:50
So it's 30 seconds to go. We can fire up and hold.
11:20:52
Let's push through any slow cars.
11:21:03
Alonso is leaving a massive gap here.
11:21:09
Yeah, he's got nine seconds ahead of him to Piastri.
11:21:15
So, Verstappen is going to be pushing through behind. That's a good gap now. About eight seconds to Valtteri.
11:21:37
So, just eyes off the dash for those tyre temps.
11:21:47
Valtteri and Alonso on top of each other. Valtteri is three and a half behind Alonso.
11:22:01
Cars behind you are all lots of each other.
11:22:15
So the gap to Valtteri now is 6, sorry 7. Valtteri's gone. We'll be strat 11 for lap 1.
11:22:24
Gap ahead 8.5, around 9. That's good.
11:22:57
Stroll at three seconds. Keep building temperature here.
11:23:20
Keep pushing. Keep pushing. OK, I'll push it. I'll push it, mate. P-U is poor with wastegate.
11:23:38
No way to skate out at 4 if we can do it.
11:24:01
So, keep pushing. Accepted laps here.
11:24:42
Gap. 12 seconds, got a dip in the nose. Had three strolls.
11:25:24
Red flag. Red flag. Strat 1. Box. Box.
11:25:32
They're overtaking.
11:25:53
So, box, box, stop on your marks, switch off.
11:26:11
Discs are warped. Coming to the box now.
11:26:21
Yeah, understood. It's good on the box, yeah.
11:38:38
So, first car on the lap, Ocon, who's currently top 13.
11:38:44
All clear, pit exit.
11:38:51
Sir Ocon, 12 seconds behind on a lap.
11:38:57
Ocon 10 seconds. Clear on exit. Got 14 seconds ahead to Leclerc. He's got 12 ahead of him.
11:39:12
Ocon, nine seconds.
11:39:29
Ocon at eight seconds. So our run plan is to go for three push laps here.
11:39:38
And you've got 13 seconds ahead to Leclerc. He is going. Still eight seconds behind.
11:39:49
And that's Strat 11. Next lap.
11:40:27
Ocon, lap 1-26-3.
11:41:26
Keep pushing next lap.
11:41:51
So that's P3. Ocon just improved 25.1.
11:42:10
New set, low pressure. Red flag, red flag, so Alonso off turn 11.
11:42:30
Just keep on top of that delta.
11:42:49
Let's get these tyres wrapped. Very quick.
11:42:56
So, box, box, stop on your marks, switch off.
11:43:28
His brakes and the wharf are getting worse and worse every run.
11:43:48
I'll leave it with you. Track's definitely drier now. I think the pressures were probably too high there.
11:45:58
They've just lifted his car up now.
11:46:05
Sure.
11:47:03
So, we'll... So, we'll just stay ready.
11:49:59
So we've got four minutes to green light so we can switch off down the end.
11:50:46
So with this queuing, we expect this first lap to be a build. So it'll be build, push.
11:51:16
Still forecast to get four laps.
11:53:25
Wind still looks very, very low in strength.
11:53:40
So that's 35 seconds. Fire up.
11:53:48
No transcript available
11:54:39
Eyes off those tyre temps on your dash.
11:54:53
So we've got time here for four laps, four laps in total.
11:55:00
We're forecasting a push-push, slow push.
11:55:26
So, might have very light rain across the pit straight in the next minute or so. We strat 11.
11:56:22
So keep pushing, keep pushing.
11:57:13
Keep pushing. Tsunoda, yellow flag, turn 4.
11:57:35
Track is clear.
11:57:48
Red flag, red flag. Strat 1. Box, box, delta positive. Just keep those tyre temps up.
11:57:58
The brakes are in a bad place at the moment, mate, at low pressure.
11:58:12
Low pressure, they're grabbing a lot. Understood.
11:58:23
Are you happy where those tyres came in?
11:58:27
Not really, no. How many laps are we going to have left?
11:58:37
It looks like we'll only get one lap.
11:58:44
If we queue, there's a chance of getting two. It's very tight. Box, box, box, switch on. Delta via Delta.
11:59:17
There we go, plus one from where we were.
11:59:22
Depends if it's one or two. Maybe plus two.
12:09:27
So we're just waiting on those Visa RBs now. We've got Lawson. Let's get... yeah, we'll think about Ocon. Ocon.
12:09:57
I'm going to be on top of Norris and Leclerc, am I not?
12:10:08
So, Norris at turn 2. We've got Piastri 4 seconds. There's 8 second gap behind Piastri. So, Piastri now 3 seconds behind. So, Piastri on a lap 2. Got set behind him.
12:10:31
Is Piastri going to do a second lap or not? Yeah, he'll do a second lap. Is that Leclerc? Gap behind Leclerc. Do a second lap. Stay ahead of Leclerc.
12:10:55
So, five seconds to Leclerc. So, do not lose position to Leclerc. Brakes are all over the place, mate. Understood. Do what you can. Be strapped to the left. We've still got five behind. Now, four seconds behind. Three seconds behind.
12:11:25
Check. So, Strat 2 and check EB.
12:13:05
OK, so Strat 1. Box, box. Where are we? Nice job, nice job. P2. So close. Well done, guys. Good session. Very difficult session. So, target 1. So, target 1. Yeah, great job in that session. That was really tough. Kept your head. Well driven.
12:13:33
Just avoiding low brake pressure.
12:13:59
Strat 12.
12:14:16
So, final order. Norris, yourself, Tsunoda, Ocon, Lawson, Leclerc.
12:14:32
So, coming into the pitlane.
