Alpine Car 1, engineer.

OK, so straight out, you'll be clear at pit exit.

Okay, Jack, so we're going to practice following the deltas on this outlap. So we need to be negative certainly by the end of the lap.

We're going to follow our normal procedure here, so steady on throttle out of 5 and then we'll be using DRS down to 6. Let's make sure we sink 7th and 8th as well.

Okay, that's good. Same down to 9. No traffic behind us.

Okay, perfect. So we're going to go steady round to turn 12.

Okay, mate. We're going to push the last part of the lap to prep the surface. Remember that wide entry to 16 as well. Just need recharge off the last corner. You're good to go.

OK, I'm recharging.

Okay, you are clear of traffic behind. Okay, mate, so we're going to do a couple of aero cruises on the way in. What, aero P5? After turn 5, please, aero P5.

Copy. How is the balance initially?

It's not so bad to be honest. I'll give you more comments when I'm in the box. Yeah, no worries.

Okay, so no traffic behind 1.50 for four or five seconds, then you can go straight to aero P3 if you like for the run down to turn 9.

OK, we'll hold in that position until turn 9 and then we'll box. Copy.

Still slightly front limited at the start of the lap. T1. Ernest Reyes did a great over the end of the lap. It was more front limited. 12.13. OK, mate. Understood. We're boxing now and we're going to stop on the marks, find pre-start revs and switch off. No pitstop this time. Copy.

Copy. And box-box.

In pitlane. Very good, so stop on the marks, find pre-start revs and switch off.

Can I get some comments from the plane?

Okay, so it should be clear pit exit. You've got Bottas, he's just finished a timed going into turn one now. So Bottas on a slow lap, it'll be close to your pit exit.

So we're going to stick to the same outlap procedure as before.

No cars pushing behind. Projector steady on throttle once again. Fronts are a little down on temp so we're going to introduce a bit of weaving as well. Still use DRS please.

Same again, down to 9. Okay, so happy to keep your speed up a little through turn 9 as well, just to help warm up the front right. So, right in front of you now is a 12 second gap, there's two cars to go in front.

Still no traffic behind.

Okay, we're good to push from now. Remember, opening the lap at 16 and recharge off when you're ready.

Okay, mate, so just watch for Sainz. He's about three behind. He's probably pushing now. Sainz two and a half behind.

That's it. Clear behind signs. No more traffic.

Copy. OK mate, so we'll do another aero cruise. Aero P3 out of turn 5. Correction, aero P5 out of turn 5. Apologies. That's the 150 kph. No traffic behind.

Okay, that's good. We'll go aero P3. Turn 7 to 90 seconds.

Still clear of traffic.

I think I used the tyre a bit too much in that first flying lap.

Yeah, understood. So, first sector obviously still good. Still a bit quicker than Pierre as well. We just start to lose out towards the end of the lap. We'll look at that when you're in.

Copy. OK, Jack, so we're going to box now. You're clear of traffic. Pierre's going to do a pitstop just in front of you, so you just pull in behind the police nice and steady.

OK mate, just pulling in behind Pierre, nice and steady.

OK mate, we'll get some comments when you're plugged in.

OK mate, so we've got Lawson starting a lap. He's just going into turn 1 now.

When you come out, you'll have Perez just in front of you. He's on a slow lap. Clearer traffic in pit exit.

Okay, so same out at 5 please, so steady on throttle, use DRS and add weaving.

Okay, same again, seven to nine, and we're going to keep our pace up through nine as you did before.

Ok, that's good, so steady round to 12 now. Lawson in front here, bought at his last lap, will be pushing again. So let's make that gap now, it's only Lawson to go in front.

Okay, no traffic behind. Loss is going now. Let's push and go. Recharge off at 60.

And recharge on.

Ok mate, so you're clear of traffic behind. We will have Stroll on a time lap now. 7 behind, he's pushing.

Copy. Okay, so Stroll 5 behind time lap.

Strolls through. It's clear.

Okay, mate, I just want to keep your pace up on the way in. Well, not keep your pace up, but no aero cruises, please.

Okay, mate, so we are boxing now. We've got Leclerc on a time lap six behind.

Box now, please. No practice pitstop. We'll be stopping on the box and finally pre-start revs. Copy.

Good, Ian. OK, mate. Stop on the box, find pre-start revs and switch off.

OK mate, we'll get some comments when you're plugged in.

Okay, so you'll be clear pit exit. I've got Albon going into 16. I expect him to do a double cool.

Copy. And Pierre is the car behind him.

Cleared for taxi. Albon boxed. Nice and steady on throttle. Out of five.

I will use DRS.

And same again down to 9.

And just the standard pace through turn 9, not the quicker version.

Okay, mate, so steady round to 12.

No cars in front. I'm going to prep the surface in the last few corners. A couple of cars are just leaving the pitlane now, so there might be a bit of traffic on this lap. Stick with it. Recharge off when you're ready.

OK, reach throttle.

Okay, so we've got quite a few cars going out now on their second soft.

You are fairly clear traffic behind Magnussen, 7 behind starting at times now.

I've got 5 behind.

3 to hunt.

Okay, and the next car is Norris. We won't worry about the AeroCruisers this time, we'll just focus on the traffic. So, Norris pushing six behind.

Norris, four and a half, time lap.

Norris, three seconds. Few cars coming through. They're all about seven seconds apart, so reasonably well spaced. Norris, one second.

OK, and then Hulkenberg at six seconds. OK, mate, so we're going to do a practice pitstop at the end of this lap.

Hulkenberg 3, tight lap.

Gap behind him is six seconds to Joe.

Box, box. Practice pitstop.

End of the lane. OK, so stop on the marks, 5 pre-start revs and switch off. No launch. No launch.

I'm too spot on on the marks there.

OK, I'm just going to bring the car back inside and I'll be back with you shortly.

So, I've got to say, that looked like a pretty decent lap to me.

I gave away a bit of time on the exit of 7 and also exit of 14. Okay, understood. So we'll get some more comments when you've logged in.

OK, Jack, so we can make the gap if you want to practice that at the exit. Remember that's got to be before safety car line 2. I've got Hulkenberg just leaving the last corner, starting to push now, so he will probably come past us. So that gap is 4.5, looking good. Hulkenberg's already through, so we're good to go from here.

Same outlap as before, clear of traffic behind.

Okay, Jackson, steady on throttle at 5. We're going to go up to 240 kph and hold it there with weaving, please. No DRS this time. Up to 240 kph with weaving. Down to 6.

The rear tyres are just a little bit warm, so we're just going to try and rebalance everything as best we can. Next car pushing behind is Colapinto at 7 seconds time lap. And we'll do the same again down to 9 please. So Colapinto 3 behind, just watch for him if doing weaving. He's on a time lap.

Ok, big gap behind Colapinto, so steady through 9 please, same as before. Don't worry so much about the delta for this one.

So, there's only Pierre to go in front, so let's go steady around to 12. Next car pushing behind is Leclerc. He's eight seconds and then a big gap behind him. Once Leclerc is through, no other traffic. He's four behind now. We can let him through.

OK, Jack, I want to push 13 and 14 to prep the front right.

We're going to push from now. Free charge off. Good to go. One more lap.

Recharge on. Recharge on. So, checkered flag's coming out in 20 seconds. So, we're going to do another lap and continue around to take that. A few cars leaving the pitlane now on high fuel. We've got Tsunoda 3 behind. Just watch for him, please. He might be pushing now. Tsunoda 2.

Clear behind Tsunoda.

I think it was quite a decent lap for the tyre age to be honest.

Copy that. So, yeah, didn't improve on his lap either. He did a 24.53. So, yeah, all in line and we still found a bit of time in sector 1 as well, so that's good. Cars behind are on outlaps.

Okay, Jack, so we're continuing round to the start and finish line where we're going to take the chequered flag and then we've got another lap to do, effectively.

So, car positioning looks good, so we should be able to get a stop, perhaps a split stop for both of you at the end of the session. Copy.

Copy. He's going to push after his outer box as well, so I know gap will be the same. Yeah, that's right, yeah, yeah. We'll manage that on our side, mate. We're all good. Okay, so going to take the chequered flag this time. We'll have a couple of switch changes before we stop to do the start and then I'll let you know about procedures as well. Clear a traffic path. Copy.

Conjecture, that's the chequered flag. We are continuing on to do another lap.

So, Colapinto behind. Similar position to you. He's just taking the flight. You might keep his pace up. Just watch for him.

Looks like he's backed off, so all good then.

Copy. Any cruisers? No, not for the moment, thank you. We've got some switch changes to do before the start, which I'll shout over shortly. Copy. Does Brodie want to roll in by point land or static? He'll be rolling, I believe. I'll confirm with him when we get there, based on tyre temps. Can we go to scenario 1 to begin with, please? Scenario 1.

And I'd like a change on the PU switch. It's PU13, position 2. PU13, position 2.

Okay, so what we're going to do is go to P-U-13 on that P-U switch and then we need to press the down switch about six times. That's it, perfect.

Sorry, I was just a bit confused when I moved to it and I had feel to the PU, my bad. It's all good, mate, all good. Okay, so we are going to the grid now.

Okay, mate, so we're going to do a rolling bike point find and four burnouts, okay? But I just need you to keep clear of the pit entry because Hulkenberg is about eight seconds behind and he's going to box this time.

So keep out of 15, keep to the left please. Copy.

So, Hulkenberg, about three behind now. Just watch for him, please.

Keep to the left at 15, like a rolling bike point find.

Four burnouts and a start on the left, please. Start on the left-hand side.

I've pushed a pit entry.

Clutch drop on target. Spot on.

Okay, we'll be boxing at the end of this lap. Practice pitstop.

Infill ahead. OK, practice pitstop, find pre-start revs and switch off, no launch, no launch.

I was a bit short there, I think.

We've got all the screen grabs from each of the stops and I think pretty much they've got better every time, so...

All good. We'll review afterwards. Copy. OK mate, so thanks for that. Again, we'll get some comments when you're plugged in, just before you jump out if that's OK.
