Radio check, radio check. Excellent, I'm clear. If you want to do a minute change, go ahead. Yeah, Marco, question to Marco, if I want to be very safe in turn 2 lap 1 with the teeth, how far up do I need to go with the mid to almost lock it? I would say two clicks, but if you want you can use the quick flick, the right toggle, so it's quicker than to go back. OK. And about B-MIG, you can already move rearward from half of the first lap if you want. Back foot to 4 and then even more.

Okay, already selects on flap.

Get back to your marks. So you went one up, he's at max as well. So we had more margin than him. So it's 2-0-45-7-0. Around us, the Alpina d'Aston Martin, our max lap.

Turn number 40 second will be a six minutes power-up. After that you can do clutch drop. Your last two starts were on target.

Okay, that was 6.5. Do you want to see the plan A, plan B laps or are you okay?

Yeah, I'm OK.

Remind me.

Okay, no, yeah, I remember. Around lap 10-11, when the leader spoke, are they interacting with us?

FFM, he will.

OK, I'm gonna go. Have a good one.

Okay, just try to, thank you, just try to let me know on the radio when the leaders are starting to box, please. Copy, I will.

If they are going to interact.

Radio check from DGLN. You're all good. Hope you learned that clear. Three minutes.

Tyres. OK, head of U-Stroll on hard. Gasly, Pierre, on a used medium. Bearman, new hard. Johan Bortoleto on medium and Lawson on hard. Head of Stroll, everybody, is on medium. Alonso on a used set. Scrub, I think.

Yeah, all good.

Unburned but formation lap cooling 10 to 11 and push exit 13 to create your gap.

That's one minute.

30 seconds.

5, 4, 3, 2, 1.

I have to drop a shallow plus one, shallow plus one.

About the PU cooling. Starts tyres from the field with still plan A.

Your gap and pushing exit at turn 13.

But for your start, critical point is the plateau duration, the throttle rate increase.

Are you cooling? Are you cooling? Similar to the obstacle grid.

There will be three burnouts. Three burnouts. Remember, everybody stacking up.

Put your left hand side, left hand side.

Three more cars to stop on the grid.

Two more cars.

Last car on the grid.

A good energy and overtake available on the back straight. Quick flick off.

Bearman, point two, stroll point four.

55 to go, UP 15, stroll point 6, Bearman point 4.

Watch out for debris outside of turn 8.

German 0.5.

Bearman point seven, Stroll point five.

Diamond point five, stroll point six, DRS enabled.

Tyre management from left, Bearman 0.5, Stroll 0.7, Alex 39.4.

German 0.7, double yellow, clear turn 8, clear turn 8.

Bearman, point seven, point seven.

Stroll point seven, Bearman point seven.

Bearman 0.6, Stroll 0.7, turn 8 earlier and smoother for proper application. Remember tyre tech switch update.

And Stroll, P8, Bearman, P4.

Stroll one ahead, 0.9, Bearman 0.7, delayed throttle application, last part of throttle exit on 3 and 13.

Bearman 1.2 behind.

Alex has lost DRS. He was lapping 39.1. Bearman behind 1.2 has lost DRS, 12.9 ahead. That was a good sector 2.

Bearman 1.4, 52 to go. Think about entry, turn left, front left turn 8, front left turn 8 entry.

Stroll ahead with hard brake issue, similar to Alonso. You can put pressure on him if you want.

Stroll 1-0, 1-0, watch out DRS.

Bearman, 1.6, get back on tyre and flap, please.

I'll be way tired so far. Just taking a lot of EC.

Alex, 38.5. If you want to go, tyres is happy. Let me know if I come.

Repeat message please, Bearman 2-0. Let me know if I can push more.

Stay on plan. Do not increase pace. Keep management. You're doing great. Bearman 1.9.

Take currently as expected.

OK, Stroll ahead. Remember he's on hard. 0.8. Bearman behind 1.8. Alex, 39.1.

Downshift later turn seven for entry speed.

Stroller at point 9, Bearman 2-0. If you want more entry rotation, green 3, position 6 for more entry rotation. Suggestion, green 3, position 6.

Bearman, Beynon, Ard not having an easy life.

Increase, saving lateral turn 1 and 8. Turn 1 and 8, lateral increase.

Strollerhead 1-0, Bearman 2.4.

But don't shift on 7. Alex was 39.1.

Stroll point 8.2.2. Let's try Lyco level 1, turn 14 and turn 6, Lyco level 1.

Smoother throttle lift turn 7. Stroll 0.9, Bearman 2.0, Piastri leader 38.2, Alex 39.3.

Disco mode 11. We're on top of Parc. P8 Stroll ahead. Bearman 2.1. This is lap 9. Feedback on plan A, please. Happy so far.

That's orange button on, orange button on. 47 to go.

Astral 0.9.

OK, suggestion to use quick flick for high speed turn 8. We lack more like going to 1 and lift in turn 8. That's for fuel.

OK, Gasly pitted. That's lap completed. Strollway point eight.

I have some feedback on the flap.

How do we flap?

OK, Stroll ahead has lost the RS. Remember, early overtake is available. If you need feedback on tyre, deck, switch. Exit turn 13, please.

We're thinking plan A plus. What's your feedback?

Yeah, you hold it there.

OK, that's 200 and Ocon pitting. Happy with plan A plus. There's free air at the moment ahead of us. What are you doing? Stroll from 8.45 to go.

Stroll 1-0 and Bearman 2 can have green 10 position 5, please. Green 10 position 5.

That's 12 laps, 44 to go. Third gear, turn 2 and 3. Third gear, turn 2 and 3. That's Hadjar and Antonelli in box.

And we have blue 10 position 1, please. You did a blue 10 or a green 10 change. Blue 10 position 1.

Bearman 2 behind Stroll 1.5. Blue 10, position 1. Blue 10, position 1.

OK, leave me to it now.

Are we OK to push or still not? Still not.

OK, we're happy to increase the pace to 1.4. Happy to increase pace, especially turn 1.

We are happy to push more turn 1 and 7. Stay where you are turn 8. Stroll 1.5.

Stroll up. Alex, no thanks. Alex, 38.3. Stroll, 38.9.

Okay, so Piastri on pit exit, watch out, right, quick flick if you want for turn 1.

So Piastri is ahead of us. We just have Russell behind Bearman. Bearman 2.2. Let's not lose time with Russell. What was your question?

Gasly, lap time is so hard.

Gasly, first lap at the bottom of the box, 37.8. He's now in traffic, so 39.1. Russell, one behind. Let's not lose time. Remember, stay on the racing line.

Alex was 38.5, Russell 0.8. Remember, stay on the racing line. Do not lose time.

And lost to Alex sector 1. Roll speed turn 1. Minimum speed turn 2 and 3. Watch Norris pit exit. Watch Norris pit exit.

Bearman behind 2.4. You're doing great. 41 to go.

We appear at the moment. Feedback on tyres when you have capacity.

Happy to keep going.

OK, Stroll, point A to end. Bearman 1.9. Behind Bearman are the two Ferrari and Verstappen, so they will push through as well. Let's not lose time with them.

So, minimum speed seven and eight to Alex. Minimum speed seven and eight. That's the main time. Lost sector two. We'll start pushing there.

Okay, think I'm out. Boxing.

Fuck, my tyres are gone!

That's Hamilton point eight. Remember, stay racing line. Don't lose time with him.

Abel, use the tech switch. Copy that. Abel, use tech switch. This is lap 17.

Box, box, box, box now. Watch out, white line, pit limiter.

Copy, pitlane, live stop. Reset your tools. Now switch to T1. First gear, foot on brake. Watch the light. We'll be clear on pit exit.

OK, we'll be clear on pit exit. Bortoleto should be 5-6 behind you. Managed turn 7-8. Managed turn 7-8.

You have your left toggle on.

Target lap time low 38, low 38.

OK, ahead of Yuto Han, fourth second. He has a six-lap hold hard.

The group ahead of you is up to Tsunoda P11 on six-lap hold hard. There's one guy still on medium, Hulkenberg P13.

Plus 3.3. 38 to go. Lap time target low 38.

Try to do some Lyko turn 1. Rotor lift and aid for fuel, please.

OK, Hulkenberg on the used medium, a slight call of L2, turn 1, leave turn 8.

I have an early overtake. I'll push on North Hulkenberg.

Once with Hulkenberg, 2.5 to 1 ahead. Let's think about his fuel saving turn 1 and 8.

Alex just at pit exit. He's ahead of Doohan.

You are 1.7 ahead.

35 to go, 35. Take the pressure on the heart, like slam.

Okay, we're looking at 30% lower, 30% lower than planned, on the hard. We have a... Still panic. Still planned.

And the car is in front of me at plan A. But just some feedback, turn 8, we need to reduce a bit the pushing. We think plan ahead of you at plan A. And you can use third gear, turn 9, think exit, turn 9, reduce pushing, turn 8.

OK, there's 34 to go to 1.2 ahead.

Close. Doohan 1-0 ahead. 1-0.

We are targeting a gap of 0.5 to get to 1.5. Consider apex kerb turn 2.

Critical message. Need that saving at fuel turn 1 and 8 for fuel. Critical.

Good job, good job. Gasly, 1.3.

OK, so Gasly 1.5. Let's use the laps to catch him to do this fuel saving, please. Critical.

Don't be on P6, you should be safe.

OK, 32 to go. Gasly 1.2. Turn 1, earlier lift, earlier lift for fuel and roll speed in.

OK, so Gasly 1.3 ahead. If you keep doing what you were doing on that last lap of fuel, that's good. Keep minimum speed up turn 2.

It's 31 to go, Gasly. 1.1 ahead.

1.9, that's the 1.4.

OK, 30 to go. Alex, 38.2. For tyres and fuel, do not go full throttle between turns 7 and 8.

Focus on the fuel, turn 1-7-8, please.

Hey, sector 1 to Alex is good.

I see you at 1.4... 1.9.

29 to go, Gasly 1.3, reminder on turn 178 for fuel.

2-1-point-eight.

2.8, Gasly 1.5, maybe more tailwind on that lap.

Alex, last lap 38.6.

He's also struggling for fuel.

Negative, I think there was a mistake sector 1.

Doohan, 1.1. Still steep, think...

We still think that I'll be around you on plan A and behind Doohan, the cars behind will probably have to pit again.

27 to go, Gasly 1.4, Alex 38.1.

Turn 8. Lifting too late. Tyres sliding. Affecting turn 9.

Check if this level's better.

26 to go, turn 8. Better this lap. Still a bit outer from surface versus Alex. Alex, 37.8.

Twenty-five to go. Twenty-five. Alex, thirty-seven point eight.

Watch out for the lift. Turn 78, 24 to go.

Thirty seven point nine.

There's one for Bearman behind you. 1.6 on medium. Six laps. That's 23 to go.

Go Gasly, 1.5.

Last lap, 37.6.

Let me know about the fuel, it's annoying.

OK, we are happy to push more to 7 and 8. We like to keep the management turn 1 for fuel. Bearman 1-0.

Alex, 37.5.

Bearman, P5. A bit more tailwind. Exit turn 12.

Use energy if you need, bearing 0.5.

21 to go. Let's think a bit about fuel for this lap. We can push later. Bearman may have to pit again.

Alex, 37.5.

I have a lot of rear logging for some reason.

I'll give you back Q20 to go.

So, brake balance plus one for rear locks, Alex, 58.5.

I'm 59.5.

OK, you can put the brake balance forward. Alpha click first if you're happy. Keep going that way.

And think about minimum speed turn 2 and 3. That's the main loss to Alex. Purple button on. Purple button on.

Alex, 37.5. Suggestion to open D entry.

Doohan is on more used R2PI than Stroll. 3.5 is on pressure. Medium.

Alex, 37.2.

OK, just watch out. T-sixteen minimum speed to Alex.

Blue 7, position 9, please. Blue 7, position 9.

And no more fuel saving. No more fuel saving. 17 to go. Alex, 37.2. Lap time is good. Keep doing what you're doing.

Gasly ahead 1.9, struggling with his hard, all the hard. Stroll behind compression medium 1.6. Try to catch Gasly.

OK, that's 16 to go. We need to keep pushing the high speed from front temp, from north, from temp. Gasly 1.5.

Dismit 1 when you want, dismit 1 when you want.

Alex, 37.2. 37.2. Watch out, understeer. Low speed.

You're struggling with the rotation. Low speed. Brake earlier and focus on mid to exit.

Alex, 37.3, 37.3, Stroll behind 36.9.

Stroll point 7. We have early overtake available if you need.

Stroll point 6. You're potentially unsafe. Watch out Stroll. Use energy if you need.

Wind has dropped 5 kph compared to start of race. Stroll 0.314 to go.

OK, let's get into the rhythm again. Copy. Let's get on to the pace. I'll keep my queue on tyres. Let's gap behind Tsunoda.

OK, so we think we should not manage that. We need to keep the belt temperature pushing high speed all over slip turn 1.

Suggestion to open the entry, you can use the toggle stabiliser for turn 6.

13.2, go. Alex, 36.9, focusing on higher minimum speed, low speed corner.

Gap behind Tsunoda, 1.3 on the threshold.

Sector two versus Alex is good. Man lost sector one three tenths.

Focus. Rolling speed turn one two.

Turn up on 8.

Orange button on. Orange button on.

Blue, 3, position 4, please. Blue, 3, position 4, turn at point 8. You're safe, I think, from energy. Energy wise, you're safe. Minimum speed turn 14 and lag quality turn 16. Force the car with understeer and pull minimum to exit.

Alex, 36.9. 36.9.

OK, Tsunoda is now slow. Looks to have a problem with his front wing. Your tyres are OK. If there was any contact. Blue 3, position 4, please. Blue 3, position 4. That's 10 to go.

Alex, 36.6. You can use rearward brake balance for rotation. Rearward brake balance.

Some feedback lost to Alex's low speed. I'll feedback you on tools.

Time to go. Is Alex flat green or not?

I think Alex Fontaise had a better shape at the feedback pools.

Use the quick-flick to open high-speed. Alex using D5, speed 5 there.

P5 there. Use the quick-click to open your high-speed, that will help.

A2, go. We need to do some saving. Just turn once on that earlier lift you were doing. Make sure you carry enough speed.

And we have a deep high speed 5, the same with a throttle for fuel time 1-7-8.

Seven to go. That's a good lap. Alex, 36.5. Keep doing what you're doing.

That's six to go. Make sure you do that fuel saving turn one. Critical, please, for turn one. You need that speed turn seven for bulk.

I went to mode 7 and I have a lot of gripping into 11. Yeah, feels a bit strange.

So, again, we need to open the high speed for turn 7 and 8. At D5 speed 5 and mode 7 your feedback is expected.

Helios to Alex, minimum speed turn 8, earlier lift, later on throttle.

Better turn 8 on that lap. We're going to need to keep saving that turn 1 and something like going to 6 and 11, please. It'll be 4 to go.

So we need Lyko turn 1-6-11. That's critical for fuel.

It's really critical, please. Auto go turn 1-6-11.

Yeah, the fuel thing pulls me off completely, but let's make sure it doesn't happen again. Copy.

Okay, three clean laps, three clean laps. Just focus on that Laiko 50 metres earlier, turn 1, Laiko turn 6 and 11. The rest push as normal and you'll be fine.

Two laps to go. That turn 1 was better. Keep doing like that. Two laps to go. In lap like this one and you're good.

Try to increase Lyko in 6th and 11th.

And Lyco, 100m into turn 40, please.

This is last lap, so just a clean lap and you'll be good to run 1.8, so just do a clean lap, don't worry about it. Continue like on turn 1, 6, 11.

I go in 11, no need into 14.

OK, you are go in, checkered flag, go in, pick up rubber, go, pick up rubber, go that, correction, go that, and maximum PU cooling, please. Maximum PU cooling and save fuel on the in lap, please. Save fuel on the in lap. Can I have blue 1, position 12, please? Blue 1, position 12. That's

That's P13, Alex, P9. So you are matching, Alex, lap time up to lap 22 on that steel. We got the greening and we're losing half a second per lap. I think a lot of learnings and a good recovery, I think, from where we were yesterday for both you and Alex, but still some work for us to do.

So, blue one, position 12, please.

Carlos, well done. Tough race out there, but there's a lot of good learning that we have. I think we got a little bit unlucky. The tyres held on better than expected, so this didn't quite pan out the way I wanted it to, but I'm encouraged with the car pace, and we'll build on that for Japan. Well done.

Yeah, I think we improved the car compared to yesterday, but from my side, a lot of work to do still. Things to find. I think I am a lot faster than this.

You're, of course, a lot faster than this. We'll do this together.
