15:23:52
Radio check.
15:25:17
Five minutes to information.
15:25:36
Chris, now it's slightly dry, do you think we should be releasing a bit quicker?
15:27:17
Three minutes.
15:27:47
So, tyre-wise, everyone is on inter-tyres. Obviously, from P1 to P7, everyone is on used inters. Are you happy for a bit of strap 14 until 4? Affirm. And temp to stop burnouts? 1-0-8 to stop, and before them is 100.
15:28:17
Two minutes.
15:28:57
80 seconds. Fire up.
15:29:17
One minute.
15:29:32
Forty-five seconds.
15:29:52
Light point find. 25 seconds.
15:30:02
Fifteen seconds.
15:30:37
So, clutch was 2% shallow. Timing good.
15:31:10
Dry patches are appearing.
15:31:17
So, keep working those tyres. Good job so far. I got a yellow flag. Turn 4. Stroll has gone off.
15:31:59
So, I'll be coasting from turn 14.
15:32:05
For your information, Stroll took out the 50m board at turn 4.
15:32:14
Stroll is now stuck in the gravel at turn 4. Should we not do any burnouts? This is not going to go green, is it?
15:32:24
It may do. Advise on burnouts. There will be four burnouts starting at the pit wall. Final burnout will be P8, Piastri.
15:32:52
So, if Stroll is coming after the car, I'll inform you.
15:33:14
So, I see Strat 5.
15:33:25
Last car approaching the back of the grid.
15:33:32
Start aborted, so normal pull away, just normal pull away.
15:34:54
George, we've still got some cars sat on the grid. We'll see that crane out at turn 4 as well, picking up strong.
15:35:24
Viadrom burnouts in the direction of Wadham Temple. So we're lifting, you know, coasting from turn 14 and it will be two burnouts.
15:35:33
Two burnouts from P14 Lewis.
15:36:06
So it's an aborted start. So we will stay in the car and keep it running for now.
15:36:18
Katsu, these front brakes are too cold again, mate. I can't keep the temp in.
15:36:32
Salut. OK.
15:36:54
OK, so you can switch off and it will be a 10 minute delay at least. To P2 or P1? Stay in P1.
15:37:22
Can we change tyres?
15:37:39
So, next formation lap will start at 12.47. Affirm. Can we change tyres?
15:38:16
Maybe just keep an eye on the people, run down quick here because these tyres are coming awfully close to us sometimes.
15:38:48
Update on weather, please.
15:38:53
Obviously I've lost all the time from these inters so I'd want to change the set if we have one available.
15:39:13
Are you copying me on these tyres?
15:39:21
Well, let's go on.
15:39:24
Righto.
15:40:03
No transcript available
15:40:42
Do they have the same pressures as the previous? AFA. Copy. Yeah, so these dark clouds just appeared above us now. It wasn't actually on the radar.
15:42:18
Five minutes.
15:42:21
So, five minutes to formation lap.
15:44:18
So just have a think what you want to do with balance. If you want to make any flapper changes. One sec. Copy.
15:44:40
So, rain expected 10 to 15 minutes from now.
15:45:03
Let's take point four out the front way. Copy that.
15:45:18
Two minutes to formation lap.
15:45:42
Point four, just confirm it's on? Affirm.
15:45:58
80 seconds. Fire up.
15:46:04
No transcript available
15:46:18
One minute.
15:46:33
Forty-five seconds.
15:46:53
Right point find. 25 seconds.
15:47:03
Fifteen seconds.
15:47:35
So clutch was 1% shallow timing. It was good.
15:47:42
Strat 14 is OK to turn 4.
15:47:51
These front brakes are 200 degrees too cold. No matter what I do, I can't get them working.
15:48:12
So, keep working those tyres. Doing a good job so far. There is rain forming overhead very close.
15:48:57
So, coasting from turn 14.
15:49:05
And four burnouts starting at the pit wall. Final burnout will be P8, Piastri.
15:49:36
Strat 5. Strat 5.
15:50:02
Last car approaching the back of the grid.
15:51:20
Light rain in the pitlane.
15:51:33
Gap behind 1.2.
15:51:38
And the yellow flag turned for Ted Perez. He's moving.
15:52:46
So think about finding water with the front right.
15:53:01
Gap 1.6.
15:54:26
Gap 1.5 and green 12, position 1.
15:54:54
So, rain intensity three out of ten. Expecting it to start subsiding soon.
15:55:57
Can you help me with flat 10? Yeah, it is hot, so we just need to keep going flat.
15:56:19
Hello, FAT10. Are you happy with FAT10? I would order one.
15:56:33
A-firm happy with strat 10.
15:57:17
Gap behind 0.9. Rain in the pitlane has almost stopped. Plan B, rear pressure to focus. Rear director power.
15:58:41
So we've got 1.1.
16:00:06
Gap behind 1.1. Tsunoda doing 24.9, so we'll just keep extending that gap. Keep doing what you're doing.
16:01:32
Gap 1.1.
16:02:56
Gap 1.1.
16:04:22
Gap 1.0.
16:05:44
Gap 1.2. He's done a good job here, mate.
16:06:11
So, just had double yellow turn 12 at Lewis Wynne on. He is moving now, so it's clear.
16:07:07
Gap 1.0. Green default 46. Green default 46. That will correct your fuel bar.
16:08:32
Gap 1.2. Rain has started to pick up again in the pitlane.
16:09:35
Rain increasing slightly more near the pitlane.
16:09:58
Gap 1.0.
16:11:23
Gap 1.1.
16:11:27
Next lap you'll be starting on lap 16, so it's different to what's on your dash.
16:12:47
Gap 1.6.
16:14:12
Gap 0.9.
16:16:04
So, expecting heavier rain in six minutes.
16:16:15
Power brakes. Don't keep locking up. Are they split? Yeah, there's a split on the front left hold. Alright.
16:17:00
Gap behind 1.0. That's Strat 12 available.
16:18:24
Gap behind 1.5.
16:18:47
I can feel the issue from Colley with the brakes starting to come in. Copy that. Give me a balance adjust when you can.
16:19:03
It's overbalanced, but I think it's from the rear pressures. Yeah, understood.
16:20:17
Clearway dark, you have a distance. Are you done?
16:20:28
And you are currently the fastest car out there.
16:21:12
So, gap behind 1.5. So, with that information on the lap times, where would you go? Pressure? Halfway? It will depend on the rain, mate. OK. Expecting heavy rain.
16:21:39
This is like the rear is moving so much at high speed. It's like a blue lock button.
16:22:37
Gap 1.0. Green 11, position 3. Green 11, position 3.
16:24:01
Gap 0.8. Expecting heavier rain. Yeah, it's already raining heavily now.
16:25:26
Gap 0.9.
16:25:33
Can't keep going like this. Not too sure how long we can hold out for.
16:26:18
Struggling on this tyre now, mate. Yeah, A-firm. Just had a double yellow turn. Well, that has cleared. Brain intensity is gone now.
16:26:51
Gap 0.7. Green 3, position 2.
16:26:58
Pit window is very busy at the moment, George.
16:27:34
Rain intensity still freezing. Start at 2. Apple plant.
16:28:00
Better though to keep this thing on the road soon, mate. It's really bad. So, it's a yellow, double yellow, turquoise, purple bird.
16:28:19
BL, stand by. We're on both windows here.
16:28:27
Sir Hulkenberg, beached at turn one, double yellow.
16:28:39
VSC, VSC, so delta positive. I think this is almost red flag conditions now, mate. So much rain.
16:28:53
Yeah, A-firm. It is getting heavier and it's only going to get heavier than this. Just absolutely chucking it down now, aquaplaning in the straights. Understood. So, currently, box and put into tyre. I think this is going to go red, mate. This should go red. We can't keep a car on the road like this. There's going to be big crashes. It's a big puddle through 4.13. There will be a crash there. I think stay out. It should go red. I'm struggling to keep it on the road under BSC conditions, mate. Understood, mate. Yeah, B-puddle 13. Pulled away through 13.
16:30:11
No transcript available
16:30:23
This is ex-wets now, guys. This is ex-wets. Ex-wets. On the inter... So we don't expect this rain intensity to last for long enough.
16:30:46
I'll be close with Gasly on exit.
16:30:51
So VSC has ended. Strat 10, strat 10.
16:31:05
Traffic behind. I can't see shit. Just Norris behind. One second. This needs to go red, mate. Gasly 2.2 ahead. Norris one second behind. Do what you can.
16:33:15
Safety car, safety car. Delta positive.
16:33:25
So, Strat 1.
16:33:34
Green 12, position 3, when you can.
16:33:40
Guys, I told you, if we need to stay out visible, go safety car or red flag.
16:34:09
Staying out, staying out. Rain intensity is reducing now.
16:34:47
Man, I can't even keep the top of the track even under VSC.
16:34:53
Yeah, rain level is now dropping.
16:35:03
Expect rain level to diminish to nothing in roughly 10 minutes.
16:35:49
No transcript available
16:36:02
So, in the pitlane, rain has almost stopped.
16:36:21
Green 12, position 5.
16:36:51
No transcript available
16:37:02
Fuck, I don't know why I'm floating on these straights.
16:37:09
Literally every corner, the tyres are not on the ground. I'm like a boat. Yeah, I mean, we just dropped temps and pressures here with this speed and these conditions.
16:39:02
Stay in the fast lane.
16:39:55
So we can switch off down the end and jump out.
16:51:33
No transcript available
16:57:06
Radio check. Radio is loud and clear. What are you doing on pressures?
16:57:14
Same as that set we just had.
16:57:19
So it's five minutes. I think, I think we should go up in the front. This track is much worse than before.
16:57:34
Yeah, copy that. We're not allowed to adjust now.
16:58:15
Right, is this going to be a rolling or a standing? Originally he said it was a rolling, but he hasn't put it on page 3 yet.
16:58:27
I'd argue a roll-in is probably more dangerous than a stand-in because of the speed you'll be going into turn 1.
16:58:41
Considering how late the grid is, I think I'd probably be far safer.
16:58:54
Yeah, copy that. Just waiting for the message to come through from race control.
16:59:22
Three minutes.
16:59:35
So, expecting some very light rain in a few minutes. There's nothing much on the radar behind that.
17:00:21
Two minutes.
17:00:26
So pit confirmed. It will be a rolling start.
17:00:35
So, it will be in six minutes time.
17:00:44
OK, sorry, they've changed it again, so now it's 0-2, so it's 1 minute 30.
17:00:54
Yeah, well. All right. We'll go again. So, 80 seconds. Fire up.
17:01:07
Enabled perimeter.
17:01:21
One minute.
17:01:51
We do not do right bonifying this time. 30 seconds.
17:02:06
Fifteen seconds.
17:03:23
So, just been confirmed it will be a rolling start. Safety car currently turn 8.
17:03:40
So think about diff entry, diff mid.
17:04:00
So, lights are out on the safety car. Instead of going this lap, we strap 10 for the start. Safety car, turn 12.
17:04:11
Turn 13 for the safety car.
17:04:17
Turn 14.
17:04:24
Safety car in.
17:06:01
And caution, turn 12, exit at two cars go off.
17:06:07
What do you mean went off? On the restart. It's all clear now then.
17:06:25
Gap behind 1.1, ahead 2.4.
17:07:53
Gap behind 2.1, ahead 2.7 and green 12, position 3. Green 12, position 3.
17:08:48
Can you let me know where Ocon's braking at turn 1? I can't see the apex.
17:09:20
So double yellow at turn 7, that's Biermann, he is moving. Gasly car ahead is braking or finding two tenths, braking at turn 1.
17:09:49
Much better at turn 1.
17:11:15
Suggest coming up diff mid for 789 at snaps.
17:11:29
I just had double yellow, turn 12 cleared.
17:13:37
Safety car, safety car. Staying out, staying out. Delta positive. Sights off at turn 8 in the barrier.
17:14:06
So doing what you can to keep temp in these tyres.
17:14:27
No safety car. It's between turn 5 and turn 6.
17:14:34
Subscribe now at turn 6.
17:14:45
And double yellow here, turn 78.
17:15:01
That was braking on the white line for Sainz.
17:16:45
Green 12, position 5. Still double yellow, turn 7-8.
17:18:19
So, currently no rain and the next band is around 30 minutes away. So safety car in this lap. Continue doing everything you can for tyre temps.
17:19:23
So it'll be Strat 10. Ocon is controlling the pace.
17:19:31
Safety car, turn 12.
17:19:36
Safety car 13.
17:19:42
Safety car, 14.
17:19:50
Safety car in.
17:21:38
So ahead 0.6, behind 0.7.
17:22:06
And turn 12 was a double yellow. Clear now.
17:23:03
Gap ahead one second, behind one second. Green 12, position 3.
17:25:53
Nice job, mate. So, Gasly, four and a half seconds ahead.
17:27:23
Gasly, last lap 23.5.
17:28:38
And if you need more support 89.10, recommend diff mid 3.
17:28:44
Snapping at the front doing 22.3.
17:29:22
Power of the straight-line speed. Alpine.
17:29:39
Gaining two tenths on the straights currently.
17:29:47
And you are faster in turn 11.
17:31:23
So just keep an eye on those temps on your dash. That's tyre temps.
17:33:12
And I just had another double yellow at turn 12. Now clear. No more rain.
17:34:10
Diff mid 4 available.
17:39:43
So, 13 laps remaining and dry to the end.
17:40:49
So turn 12 needs to be push and hold.
17:49:16
There will be six laps remaining when you cross the line.
17:50:58
Brakes are grabbing at mode 4. No feel. I have a split. Yeah, he felt there was a split.
17:53:26
Three laps remaining.
17:56:07
So, one more lap. Strat 9.
17:57:16
Push and hold overtake to the line.
17:57:42
That's P4. Okay, so P4, so pretty good tyre drive from you there today. Pretty good job.
17:57:57
Green at 1, position 12, green at 1, this is Strat 12, and this is Strat 14.
17:58:32
Thanks for all the efforts these past three weeks. I know it's been a lot of work for everybody. Especially in the garage, but everyone back at base as well. Bradley, Brookesworth. Thank you. Let's keep pushing. Yeah, A firm. I'll second that.
17:59:23
Just coming into the pitlane.
