Okay, Liam, everything looks very dusty. Looking at the cameras, we take engine steps.

No transcript available

Yeah, it's very dusty and slippery. Loud and clear. Take it easy. We'll go for a few laps. Sustainable to start.

When you can, fail 1-0, fail 2-0. It will help you with upshifts.

Feels like I'm driving in the wet, honestly. Let's not push the goal, please.

Next car is seven seconds behind on everyone reporting the same.

When you can, Strat 2. Currently in 4th. Strat 2.

Let's go mid 7, two steps up.

Yellow where you are, yellow where you are. Okay, green, green.

On Yuki, the 46.3 this lap. People are starting to find a bit of time now.

OK, Liam, rear tyres are hot, so consider a quick cool down to cool down the rear tyres. Yeah, copy, cooling down. Keep the front up, please, so we keep up the weaving. Offset forward. We have Sainz pushing. He's eight behind.

Karajan for the cool-down reminder.

Sainz five behind and then Stroll is three behind him.

Watch your mirrors for Sainz.

And then Stroll 3.5. Stroll 2.5. Coming soon. And then Alonso 5.

OK, Stroll behind you now and then Alonso 3.5. So big picture, it's turn 3.

So the high speed at turn 3, it's 4 tenths, and it's 5 tenths braking for turn 12.

Alonso behind you now, and then we have a good gap to Gasly.

OK, Liam, if you can open the gap where you are.

Offset zero. Charge of last corner.

We can keep pushing one more lap. Consider closing the mid one more step.

Your lap time 43.7. Yuki, 41.4.

We close the lap on that charge out for cool down.

Offset forward. Sainz 7 behind.

And compared to the other car, it was braking turn 12 and 14, but we had traffic. The rest of the lap was good.

Sainz behind six. He's cooling down.

OK, Liam, consider shape 4 to reduce late hairlocking.

Sanz behind now.

OK, not sure what Sainz is doing. He's behind you. I'll leave it up to you. Looks like he's cooling down. No one else pushing behind. Happy to stay in mode 4, Liam? Or you want to move push-pull-push?

I'm happy. Offset zero. Charge off.

OK, cooling down. Copy. We can go to mode 1 now. Copy. We have Sainz 3 behind. We have an issue with timing, so keep an eye on Sainz. Looks like he's staying there for now. Offset forward.

We need to focus on cooling the rear tyres. We'll make changes for the next.

Should I go to mode 1? Confirm, mode 1.

If Sainz wants to go, you can let him go. Let's keep looking after those rear tyres.

Onyuki is using third gear in turn 7 and 9, carrying a little bit more speed in turn 7.

So your lap time is a 41.5. On Yuki it just improved and it is a 40.4.

And it was braking, turn 12, turn 14 a little bit still, and Yuki had a big toe in the back straight. Big toe for Yuki.

Consider closing deep entry one more step.

We have Gasly 4.5 behind. If you don't drop too much, you can stay with it.

Charge of last corner. Offset zero.

Watch your mirror if Gasly keeps pushing. Directly behind you.

Offset forward. OK, Liam, do you need one more lap? I'll be happy to come in the garage and look at a few things. I'll do one more. Copy, one more. No more than that. I'll give you one more. Isolap time to Yuki. Copy.

And the main limitation was braking turn 12, 3 tenths this time. Yeah, I copy.

On stem again on the cool down.

We'll look after the rear tyres, please.

Juan Gasly should be faced with you behind, but you can let him go if he wants to go.

OK, next car is Yuki, 10 behind. He is boxing. We have one more lap. No more.

Offset zero. Charge off. One more push.

Mode 6 in the background. Get ready for pit after pit. Box, box. Good effort.

Copy. Feedback on now to 12.

Yeah, much better. Also, good job.

We have Norris on outlap approaching turn 7. He's on the first outlap.

Box, box, box, box. Charge of turn 14. Pit entry test. Reminder, pit entry line, difficult to see.

And that was 10 long lengths. OK, we'll plug the car and then listen to your feedback.

I want to show you what we need to work on.

OK, track is clear where you are. We have... OK, track is clear. I'll keep you posted on cars coming. We need weaving and good braking. Let's try to make it work first push.

B-Bal offset plus one hundred.

And Yuki reported the tyres ready, starting the lap on soft.

Okay, position is good. Cars behind are cooling down.

OK, first car coming is Leclerc, 18 behind pushing. We should be good.

B-Bal offset plus one hundred.

Ok, let's keep up the weaving and the good braking. We try to make it work. If it's not ready and you're not happy, no problem to abort and go again. No problem at all.

Offset zero. You can do it now.

See you at the 2-goal line.

OK, Liam, that was ISO sector 1. You gained one tenth sector 2 and we lost three tenths sector 3. We think you brake a little bit too late at turn 40. Oh yeah, I can feel it now.

It was 30 meters compared to Yuki. We have Ocon behind. I think he's on outlap. We can let him by. We cool the tyres. Offset forward.

Engine 8, position 2 when you can.

Next car is Troll 9 behind.

Stroll is on a fast cool-down.

And then we have a gap of 12 seconds behind Stroll. So if Stroll is catching up, we can go behind him.

If we stay in front, it's even better.

Stroll 4.5.

OK, Yuki Reddy is slow, he's cooling down. He's at the top right now.

Let's try to get by Yuki. He's slowed.

OK, open the gap if you can't.

Offset zero. Next car pushing is Albon. We are good with Stroll.

Tyres will be OK, handbrakes are good. Charge off.

OK, track is clear behind.

Hamilton turn 9.

OK, charge on. On we go again.

Straight away we cool down. Let's try to go again. We are short on timings.

Tyres are not too bad.

With the cold track temp, we are still close to optimum with the surface temp. Why not too bad. Good job.

Yeah, sorry mate, I'm really struggling with braking. OK, I can give you one more lap, no more. Yeah, I copy. Let's go back to shape 3 to help this front under rotation.

Hamilton pushing. Two behind. Watch your mirrors coming now.

OK, next one is Russell pushing as well 7 behind. Let's try to stay ready if we can.

If you want to let Russell by, we have a gap behind him, but do it early. Let Russell by early if you want to do it.

Russell coming now and then eight seconds to Gasly.

Ciao, Gianfrancona!

Watch your mirrors for Gasly. Not sure what he's doing. Push in the inlap, please. Box, box. Push in the inlap.

We have Sainz pushing four behind, but push as well please. We are short on timings.

Sainz behind you, pushing.

OK, well done.

OK, just ignore it. Charge up and push.

We have Albon pushing coming now. Albon pushing coming now.

Watch your mirrors for Albon, please.

On box, box.

Box. Box. Copy. Box.

Friends, you'll see when I come back.

Yes, OK, copy. Thank you.

Ok Liam, we are going to try to go as soon as possible to get a few laps sustainable, no DRS. And we are happy to keep a bit of pace to have a look at the grinding on the medium, if that's going to be a problem.

OK, copy that. We didn't get a clean, representative lap on the soft, but still some work to do for the next session for both cars.

How was the balance for you in the soft? Balance is not so bad, it's just the graining towards the end of the lap. The first half of the lap, the car feels OK, and then just towards the end of the lap, I just have no confidence pushing the car on brakes. I think this is what we discussed and I anticipated to you before the session, that we have a real limitation, but the graining on the front can become a problem quite quickly.

Copy. So we're just waiting for the fuel and then we will go straight out.

Can you go mode 3 for the outlap on Strat 2? And let's try to do a representative outlap. Like a PTT test on the PXM base.

Liam, let's go. Offset zero.

Engine 11, position 4. Liam, do you want to reset your fastest time or it doesn't matter? It doesn't matter to me. Good.

On charge, off exit the garage, please.

OK, try to open a small gap at the pit exit and then we get going.

I will try to keep up the pace in the outlap to have a representative mode 3. We have Piastri, turn 1, pushing.

Piastri 2.5 behind pushing.

If Piastri catches you, you have to let him by.

Yeah man, I don't know what this guy is doing. Yeah, me neither. Head down. Next one is lap into 5. Head down, keep up the pace again.

OK, you can use DRS if you want to get by Zhou. Let's try to clear him.

And we keep mode 3 one more lap. Reminder Colapinto is close behind. Three seconds behind. Don't drop.

OK, good job. No more DRS. We have four times. Keep the pace up.

Max Head on cooldown. Franco Colapinto is still on low fuel behind you. But you do what you have to do.

When you can, mode 6.

OK, let's make sure we don't drop. We have five seconds margin to get an extra time lap. Let's keep the pace up. Good job.

Okay, Liam, we will get ready for the start.

And if we can drop the pace to cool the tyres for the start to be representative, we have Russell pushing 2.5 behind. Watch for traffic, please. Cool your tyres. Russell coming now. Copy. Mode 12.

When you can, multi B8, torque position 9. On the cars following are cooling down as well. We are good for now. Repeat the multi B change. Multi B8, torque position... 9.

OK, we have Magnussen behind. In case he's coming close, you can let him by.

Let's try to do one last good braking once he's by.

We will start from the right-hand side of the grid as far forward as you can. Two tyre warming.

Clink of a tick, two tyre warming, right hand side, as far forward as you can.

You can keep the pace of 0.6.

Box, box, box, box.

Copy, Fox.

And if we have margin, we do a pit entry test. Otherwise, do what you can.

Box, box and static pitstop.

On heads-up, possibly slip-repeat box.

Damn, Yuki's doing his pitstop.
