05:54:34
Radio check, Fernando. Radio check. Yep. Dex, you can go ahead. Radio check, Fernando. Yeah, he's good.
05:55:31
Fernando, just give me a radio check, won't you? OK.
05:55:57
Yep, all good. Radio check.
05:56:09
Radio check, Chris.
05:56:14
Yeah, Fernando, I can hear you. It's just my radio's a bit pored in a way. I'll give you a tick. OK, OK. You're on water. Yep.
05:56:48
Hi, Fernando. I'm back on the pitwall. I think it's all good. Yeah, all good.
05:56:58
Yeah. Confirmed.
05:57:33
Okay, Fernandes, we're the only one on soft. We've got Perez ahead on hard and then everyone ahead of him is medium. You've got Albon and Lance medium behind you and Bottas and Colapinto at the back on hard.
05:57:49
So there's three hard starters, which is Perez, Bottas, Colapinto. Everybody else medium.
05:59:46
That will be one flat shrub once Mikey gives you the signal.

That was exactly on target, exactly on target. If you make a bit of a gap before turn 1, then you can lean on the tyres through 1 to 4 and then some high speed weaving down to 5.
06:00:59
No transcript available
06:01:11
We'll have some good weaving down here and then a hundred metre lift before a good break.
06:01:35
So you can lean on the tyres through here.
06:01:46
The cars are making a gap after turn nine. To make a gap, a bit of weaving before 10, you can lean on tyres through 10-11.
06:02:18
It's a bit of a gap out of 12 and then we'll have a high-speed weaving all the way down to 14 with a 50 meter lift before a good break.
06:02:52
Exit of 16. You can do a bit more weaving, but stay on the racing line. So keep on the racing line after 16.
06:03:06
OK, so there's four burnouts. Four burnouts. How we told you, the method.
06:03:21
Use K0 before you start to bounce.
06:03:35
Be careful with your grid box position. Run switch race, no bike point find. Run switch race, no bike point find. First gear and I'm watching.
06:03:48
Minus 17. Minus 17. Minus 17. Last cars on the grid.
06:09:27
So this is lap four. This is lap four now. Still thinking plan A. I'll come down on aerobatics.
06:10:27
Box is allowed for now. Box. Box. Box. Box.
06:10:32
Copy. Box, box.
06:10:43
Two clicks rearwards at the brake balance. Two clicks rearwards at the brake balance.
06:10:57
Tyre green dry. Ah, tyre green dry.
06:11:27
Look after the tyres a bit on his first outlap. Look after the tyres.
06:12:43
We're still holding the guys ahead. I think the long game is important to look after tyres again on this next lap.
06:14:47
So, currently Magnussen is still behind us in pits, but his pace is about seven, eight tenths quicker last lap.
06:16:04
So Magnussen and Perez have dropped back a bit. Lawson is just ahead of us at the moment.
06:18:04
So that lap, you were half a second quicker than Lawson last lap, so he's behind you now if he stops. We think one-click rearwards brake balance and entry 7.
06:19:23
I have understeer at turn 80.
06:19:43
Repeat. Repeat.
06:19:48
On hard strips, pitch in spindle.
06:20:35
So Fernando Zhou and Ocon will come out just behind us now.
06:21:23
OK, fans, so Lance has just pitted and his was front limitation. It's all about looking after the fronts. We can think one click to a great Lance.
06:22:48
Possibly racing. I'll come.
06:32:13
Magnussen ahead is still on his first set of mediums.
06:36:23
You can go strat 7. It's free. Strat 7.
06:37:13
From outside, tyres are looking quite good. Tyres are looking okay. This is lap 20. We're at least plan A, maybe plan A plus two or three.
06:37:48
How are we doing? Take full race to read.
06:38:01
So we are P11 at the moment. P11.
06:38:51
So behind Zhou and Lawson, I've got seven lap newer hearts. The Haas cars look like they might be trying a one-stop, so I'll keep an eye on Magnussen.
06:39:18
Let me know what you think on aerobalance, Fernando. Let me know on aerobalance.
06:39:28
Yeah, I felt not too bad, but from left graining for sure.
06:40:57
Yeah, front left getting worse.
06:41:27
You need to speak louder.
06:41:33
Copy. Zhou behind is now in DRS. Yeah, he will pass this lap, I think.
06:41:41
We cannot go much longer.
06:42:00
Yeah, maybe put more aero balance. It's to protect the front.
06:42:15
So you have got energy if you need to. Use energy.
06:42:32
Yeah, I'm lost for seats.
06:43:02
It's a shape 11. I'm in shape 11.
06:43:57
So we will box this lap, we will box this lap. Use everything, use energy.
06:44:44
We will be racing Magnussen and Bottas. Big time.
06:45:32
So we can still try and do a bit of management here. These two behind, if they go into the end, will be in a worse position.
06:47:29
We're happy to see the light press again.
06:49:57
We prefer more rearward brake balance, just go up on the diff, so we're trying to look after the fronts.
06:50:23
But the rears are perfectly fine also. I need to take care. Oh, it's from the previous set. Rears were good on last set. Rears were good on last set.
06:54:02
OK, Fran, so at the end of this lap, there'll be 20 laps to go, 20. Zhou, Ocon and Lawson, if they try and stay out there, 10 seconds ahead of you now. Play pit, they'll come out a good step behind.
06:54:29
Magnussen, Bottas behind a seven lap older heart. Colapinto behind them are two laps newer.
06:54:52
And Bottas behind Magnussen is on medium so he's not going to go to the end.
06:57:21
HPP on. HPP on.
06:58:07
Perez has just boxed. He's come out behind Magnussen.
06:59:12
Shape 2, you think it's better?
06:59:21
Yeah. Confirm. Confirm. Happy. In shape too.
06:59:32
Hulkenberg will come out two or three seconds ahead.
06:59:36
Gates, press the button one second before you talk.
06:59:47
Yeah, copy, sorry. It was just to tell you Hulkenberg's going to come out two seconds in.
07:00:00
What is happening in front? We are catching some cars.
07:00:14
Yeah, so it's Zhou at the front of this train who's holding people up.
07:00:40
So Zhou's on 22 lap old hearts. I think he'll stop soon.
07:00:59
So ahead of you is Ocon and Lawson on 22 lap holds, so they're going to stop soon. Zhou's come in now.
07:02:12
So, ahead is now Ocon holding them up. Tsunoda's probably past him now. And then Lawson is ahead of Hulkenberg on old times.
07:03:51
I'm going for an early press. Pressure hard. I've got loads of energy.
07:05:55
So we're P10 on the road at the moment. P10. Perez is four behind.
07:07:13
Fernando, just let me know on aerobalance, just in case, just let me know on aerobalance.
07:07:20
It's OK.
07:07:57
Twelve laps to go, including this one. Twelve laps.
07:09:11
Okay, so Perez is the car behind now. Eleven to go. Eleven.
07:09:38
Which tyres he has?
07:10:02
Perez is on hard. Perez is on hard. Eight laps nearer than us. Eight laps nearer than us.
07:10:20
Yeah, I've cleansed me. Maybe a safety glass or something.
07:10:48
There's ten to go at the end. There's one ten to go. You can do it, mate. He's five and a half behind, Perez. Five and a half behind.
07:14:05
Eight more laps. Eight more laps.
07:16:56
Use energy, Fernando. Perez on the DRS.
07:18:33
You've got lots of energy.
07:20:36
OK, four more laps. Four more laps.
07:22:14
OK, so Magnussen is four behind. Three laps to go, three laps to go. White button will help rotation. White button.
07:23:52
Go to Strat 6.
07:25:30
OK, one more lap at the end of this one. One more lap at the end of this one. Strat 5.
07:26:40
Push and hold now. Push and hold.
07:27:07
And now you can push and hold again. Push and hold. This will be the chequered flag.
07:27:18
Checkered flag. Well done. A good drive. P11, I'm afraid. P11.
07:27:27
Can you run switch? Can you run switch and warm up?
07:27:34
And they can have MFB blue override, MFB blue override, position 12.
07:27:43
So unfair. There's no penalty, no investigation, nothing, but we can score points.
07:27:54
I'm afraid not mate, doesn't look like it.
07:28:01
HPP off. HPP off. Take the pick-up and away please.
07:29:19
So take the last bits of pick-up, please, mate. Take the last bits.
07:30:23
Okay, P1 for engine off and then P0 to turn the car off. Thank you.
