Green light, straight out.

B-Bal offset plus one hundred.

B-Bal offset plus one hundred.

OK. Last one.

Radio check.

That's good for me.

OK, so recharge off at 60. I'm still below 10. Coming up.

Happy to keep pushing for a second lap.

Okay, so it should be clear of traffic. Pierre is backed off behind as well. So how is the balance initially? Looks a little snappy. Yeah, exactly that. A little snappy on the entries of the airfield just coming up now. Copy that. And then mid to exit of turn 1. Copy that. So most of these places are where we're going through a crosswind, so yeah, largely that not helping us there at all. We'll just see if we can help with switches at all. I'll get back to you. We do have Bottas two cars back about four seconds. He could be pushing still, so let's just watch for him. Please, Hamilton directly behind on an outlap.

Bottas behind. Looks like he's backed off.

So, no traffic coming through now. We're going for another push lap after this.

Happy to go up to P5 if you like. Good gap in front. Happy to go.

Ok, Verstappen starting a push lap now. 5 behind. One of a few cars coming through this time. Verstappen, 3, pushing.

Next car pushing at Lawson. Five behind.

Loss of three behind.

And a couple of cars behind him, Perez pushing.

Perez, four behind, timed lap.

Next car will be Magnussen. He's three behind.

Three cars back, even Magnussen, three and a half seconds back.

Once Magnussen is through, we are clear.

Ok mate, so that's it for traffic at the moment. All cars behind on slow laps. We'll have Hulkenberg coming through eventually. He's about 10 behind. P6 at the moment at that time. Fastest time 25.9 for Tsunoda on the medium.

Ok mate, so Hulkenberg on a time lap about five behind. He'll be coming through shortly. He's the only car pushing behind. Two and a half now.

OK, that next car pushing is Sainz. Seven seconds. Two cars to go in front.

Sainz 3.0, pushing.

Ok mate, so let's cool and go for one more. We have got Fernando just finishing a time lap behind.

We're looking pretty good for traffic at the moment, so main balance limitation please when you can.

Some understeer mid-corner. It places some instability on the rear. So it's quite dependent on which corner it is basically. But the entry stability is getting better with more understeer mid-corner.

OK, we've got Fernando keeping pace up behind, but he should be on a slow lap. That's it for traffic at the moment, so no-one pushing behind at the moment.

All cars behind keeping their pace up but not on push laps. Very happy to let them go if they want to get past.

Next car pushing is Hulkenberg, 6 behind him.

So, for info, P8 at the moment. Hulkenberg, three behind, timed lap.

Hulkenberg one second. Gap behind him five seconds to Sainz, who is pushing.

Yeah, some bouncing as well. 4 in 4 on the high speed. That turn 12, 13, yeah? Yeah. Just watch for Magnussen, 4 behind on a timed, and it's fairly clear behind him.

OK mate, so let's go for another push lap. Next car on a time is Tsunoda, four seconds. And there's a bit of a gap behind him. Tsunoda, two and a half.

Okay, so we're at that point where if we want to make a bigger setup change, we need to do that now. For info, you are P9. Pierre's fastest lap 24.8 for info. If we want to make that change, we're going to box this lap. Clear of traffic at the moment. Copy. There's a lot of understeer mid-corner and snappy traction basically. Most places now. Yeah, copy that. So this could improve the traction. How's high speed? 12, 13, 14? Loose.

OK, next car pushing behind is Fernando, eight seconds on a timed.

Copy, yeah. Let's box and let's do the change. Okay, understood. So we'll do that now, please. So we'll be boxing now. If we can get an aero cruise after turn 15, it's aero P5. It's quite a slow one, 1.50.

I'm going to be third gear from now on. And we're boxing now, we will do a practice pitstop as well.

You got it? Yeah, I want it after 15, if at all possible, please, mate. You're all good. We've got Lawson 5 behind on a time, just need to watch for him.

Laws 4 behind. Cleared behind him.

Also coming through now. Car behind him is Norris on a slow lap. We are boxing now. Practice pitstop. Box now. Practice pitstop.

And no launch. No launch. Stopping in the box.

OK, mate. So, we're going to get some comments from the floaters.

Ok, so straight out please, straight out.

Okay, so we'll have some cars at pit exit. So, Pierre four behind and Alonso close behind him. Pierre is pushing sustainable now. Same with Fernando, so let them through. Gap behind Fernando, the second car. Two and a half seconds to Russell, sustainable.

Two to come through and a two and a half second gap to Russell.

Russell one second behind, then a five second gap to Stroll. Be sustainable.

Ok, so Stroll the car behind. He's sustainable running and he's got a six second gap behind him.

I think it would be best to let Stroll through and then back up to Sainz, who's the car behind him.

OK, last push.

OK, mate. So, cars behind Sainz and Piastri. They're both sustainable running. Only seven cars on track at the moment.

OK, so here's the plan. We're going to do another fast-slow-fast after this. Just watch for Sainz and Piastri. Close together coming through now. Clear behind them.

Okay, so the plan is to do fast, slow, fast after this, and then we're going to pitstop onto the soft, okay? And then stick with the plan after that.

Okay, mate, so you're going to get another two push laps. If you want to stay in scenario seven for the next lap, we'll have sock three, please.

Nice. No, I have two now. It's okay. That's fine. That's fine.

So we're good on time here. No rush.

Ok mate, the diff did as expected there. Are you happy with that for the moment?

Yeah. OK. That's good.

So, only one of the car on track, that's Pierre at turn 3. So let's get a good drive out of 16. We do have one car just leaving the garage now. I'm going to recharge off and another push.

Okay, mate. We've got Colapinto 10 seconds behind. He's on a soft tyre now, so we'll be pushing.

Ok mate, so main balance limitations when you can. Colapinto 5 behind.

The car is super inconsistent, basically. From entry to mid-corner. It's basically not possible to get the speed. Okay, understood. So is that maybe from the rear end question? Right.

Well, front-end understeer mid-corner and then basically rear-end snaps. Massively. Understood. So we could consider just opening up that diff mid a little bit. That might help with the mid-corner. See if we can get some rotation in there. Albon 9 behind. He's on an outlap. Getting on the soft.

So, the plan here is to do one more push lap and then we're going to do an in-lap with our aero cruisers and we're going to box straight onto the soft tyre.

We could consider the close modifier at turn 7 for Infer as well. So Albon 4 behind now. He will be pushing next lap.

No other traffic.

Okay, so I've got some aero cruises for you. Be clear of traffic behind us. So aero P3 after turn 3, please. Aero P3 after turn 3, if you can.

Okay, thank you for that. Sainz behind on an outlap. So, Esteban, we're going to box onto the soft tyre now. There's no rush, we've got time here. What do you think for flap, please?

Okay, Franco, we're P10 at the moment.

Next aero cruise will be aero P5 after turn 50. We're going to box onto the solid tyre.

So, error P5. Clear of traffic behind Hulkenberg. Five seconds on a timed.

Hulkenberg two and a half behind the time.

Ok, Esteban, so box now. Boxing onto the soft tyre. This will be a single cruise stop, so nice and steady please. We're going up one turn on the lap.

Stopping on the box. Single crew stop on to the soft. OK, no rush here.

Turnstile will be driving straight out.

So we're going for a fast outlap as best we can.

Colapinto just coming through now, one behind. Then we've got Piastri starting a time lap now. He is about three behind.

Piastri, time lap behind, then clear on C3.

Multi back to tyre.

There's a gap in front to Fernando. Five seconds. He should be pushing next time. We have Hamilton on a time lap four behind.

So we're in a good spot here. We're going for one push lap and aborting at the end of the lap.

Okay, so push now, aborting at the end of the lap.

Box after 60.

Okay, Esteban, so medium tyre going on, one turn down on the flap. I'd like to do a start at the end of the pitlane, please.

OK, so two burnouts, please, and I'll start at the end of the pitlane.

Okay, so that's what I'd like. A slow lap, please, on the way round to the flag. Slow lap on the way round to the flag. It's out in 1 minute 50. So nice and steady on the way round, please.

Car behind is Zhou. Six seconds. He's just finished a title.

P.U.13, position 2, when you can, please.

Okay, we've got Lawson four behind time lap. Nice and steady on the way around, please. Nice and steady.

Offset 2 behind.

Next car, Leclerc on a timed four behind.

And then next car is Pierre. He's on a slow lap. I'd like to go nice and steady for the last part of this lap if I can, please.

Check the flag 35 seconds.

I'll watch for Hulkenberg. One and a half behind timed.

Clear of traffic behind Verstappen on an outlap. He might push past. Happy to let him through. Nice and steady please. Last part of the lap. No more traffic, no rush.

Check it for like 12 seconds.

Okay, Tsunoda six behind on a push lap. Watch for him, please. Soft tyre. Check the flag is out and we are taking the flag.

Don't make so. Let's go scenario 1. We are going round to the grid. Scenario 1, going round to the grid.

Okay, so your clutch drop head into the pitlane was 2% too deep, but that looked good to us, so we can do the same again.

For info, Norris behind hasn't taken the flag yet. Let's let him through so he can take that.

And we've got the same picture with Albon. He's eight seconds behind.

Okay, so Albon eight and a half behind. Again, he can take the flag this time. He hasn't done yet.

Verstappen and Colapinto in front have taken the flag. They'll be doing starts from the grid this time.

Okay, Esteban, so we'd like three burnouts. We could let Albon through. He's four behind.

He still needs to take the flag. If he's not going to push past him, that's fine. Let's do what we need. Three burnouts, please, and a start on the left.

Push to pit centre.

Box, box. Practice pitstop.

Turn in. No launch, no launch. Switch off.

Okay, Pierre's just going to do a stop at height. We'll push you through. We'll be back with you shortly.

Okay, thank you. We'll have you back in the garage in a moment.

Stop you when you're within, otherwise you can jump out over your preferences.
