How was the start?

OK, the start was drier minus three, drier minus three, so much better than the previous ones. And we want two burnouts, two burnouts.

Last car approaching the green now.

More brakes when you can. More brakes when you can.

DRS enabled. DRS enabled.

You can't use your battery.

Suggestion B-Bal plus one. B-Bal plus one.

Okay mate, just mind control for your time management and let's focus on exit of turn 13.

Front lock and B-Bal minus one engine in two.

If you can, we can start to do some light on. It might improve the front and the rotations.

Suggestion, silver mid-pipe, silver mid-pipe.

Let's try to catch up, closing up there a little bit.

We can do B-Bal minus one, B-Bal minus one. We want to close the gap to Stroll if possible.

Let's start to think in Lyco and start to find more tyres.

I want to catch it but I have no grip. OK. No problem.

We need a bit more management in turn 12. We can lift earlier in turn 12.

Suggestion 28.7. 28.7.

Look at me. Our race is focusing on managing these tyres and trying to stand this steel as much as possible. Let's hope the starters are starting to pit now.

Suggestion, silver P6. Silver P6.

Ok, for your reference, we are targeting 39.5s. That's a lap time. 39.5s.

My Stroll is struggling with tyres now. We can manage a bit more in turn 12. We can lift a bit earlier in turn 12.

Boat's good. Opportunity. Prepare more time too.

And if we can, let's close the gap to Stroll and put him under pressure a little bit. He's strong with the tyres.

Those cars will be much faster than we are.

What is the pace of the other mediums?

Javi, they are doing Alonso 40.3 and Lawson 40.3 as well. Norris behind you, just coming out of the pits.

Suggestion, avoid special one in turn 13.

Let's try to not lose much time with Norris and try to use him to get the stroke.

Some of the soft guys have pitted now. Alonso is doing a 40-0 for your reference. I know that it's difficult there. Let's maximise this.

Where is the hearse behind me?

We are boxing for hard tyres, we are boxing for hard tyres.

You have clear, clear now, clear now. The car ahead is Stroll in turn 2.

We are plus C now.

We will be fighting Alonso at the exit, fighting Alonso at the exit, so let's push and use the energy here.

How is the balance? How are the tyres? They are OK for now. Balance is OK.

How is the management going?

You can do a bit more laico if you want in the big break-ins apart from turn 1.

Line of three cars, Levi and Stroll, followed by Alonso and then Lawson.

Think about like going to turn 11, it helps you.

Good here. Suggestion in turn 12, lift earlier and less. Lift earlier and less in turn 12.

Race picture for you. You are the fourth car in a train of four cars, evenly split, led by Alonso.

Nico, who is three and a half seconds ahead of him.

For your reference, Nico on a medium 16 laps all 39.5s.

We want to stay with Lawson in this two seconds gap.

Look at my opportunity with Lawson. Exit of 9-11. Let's focus on that exit of 9-11.

Liam Lawson and Stroll lap in the 29.0s for your reference.

Stroll for turn 95.

The traction of this car is horrendous.

Yeah, I oversteered that, but we still have 30 laps ahead of us.

Well, the reason why I'm saying it is maybe you can help me with some tools or something. Verstappen coming out of the pits. Verstappen coming out of the pits. Be mindful. He's behind you.

Sayef, John, silver mid-five, silver mid-five. Fine, turn two, remember turn two.

Suggestion, a special two-turn 13.

The reference Lawson ahead is doing 40.7s.

27 laps to go. 27 laps to go.

Suggestion B-Bal minus one, B-Bal minus one.

Safety car window is open.

Sun never even reaches down to your top form.

Oh, no. Oh, there's the pace.

Rears are gone, basically. And this doesn't look so good, right? You tell me.

Yeah, the pace doesn't look great, but let's keep it up, mate. Both safety car windows open.

Safety car, safety car. Mate, please don't talk when you're braking. Please.

Should we pit now? Yeah, we're pitting.

OK, mate, how is the flapper for the next one?

Yeah, I think I'll go a bit lower maybe to save the rear because we are getting destroyed by this rear.

Yeah, the problem is that it's understeer, you know, in other places. I'm scared of picking up even more understeer.

OK, here we think we need to come up a little bit on the front flap, Gabi. OK. It will be a bit on the course, but yeah, alright, I agree. Let's go. Let's try.

I don't need to follow the data when I cross the pit entry, right? No, and you are boxing anyway. We're boxing now.

Fault safety car, Gabriel, fault safety car.

Hold your brakes when it comes to stop.

OK, I'm submitting. We are at exit, we are at exit.

Safety car current is at 11.

The gas ahead of you on the way to turn 4. OK, I don't need to follow the doubt anymore, right?

I think you should follow the Delta for the moment. You need to follow Delta. We need to cross the safety car line another time.

I just jumped. Let's go back to green, make it 4, green, make it 4.

Drive with default delta 0-0-1.

All right, so now I can push. Yeah, that's correct, you can push now. The safety car is in plan N and there's a lot of cars still catching up.

He's not going to be in this lap, right? Nope, no.

Alright, so I don't need to push the tyres.

Just a little bit of a race picture. Safety car is going to be in this lap. Safety car is going to be in this lap. It's in time for right now. Ahead of you, Stroll on a hard. Ahead of him, Lawson on a soft. And then Nico on a seven laps old medium. Ahead of Nico, two cars on a hard. Alonso and Hadjar. All the cars on a hard, we think, they are going to be slower than we will be. So there's some things to play here for. OK, at the hards of Alonso, it's you or what? The hard of Alonso, he pitted for this hard.

Safety goes in front then, and is in this lap.

And for the restart we will do mod RS, mod RS, but not yet.

Should I go now to mode DRS? Not yet.

Kostika is still in turn 13. The lift car is just starting to take on front, so you can go to more RS now.

Safety car is in P14.

All race, all race.

DRS enabled, DRS enabled.

So just jump pilot minus one, pilot minus one.

Come on, you are all in the train of DRS led by Sainz doing 38.6 for a while Nico doing 37.9.

Suggestion some light going to turn 11. Focus on the exit.

We are happy with that turn 11. That was a good turn 11.

Following a train of cars led by Nico.

Suggestion, grip peak 5. Grip peak 5.

Stroll car ahead is having problems with brake temperature. He needs to do more Lyko.

Safety car window open. Safety car window open. Please confirm.

We may have a few cars ahead of you, have some time penalties. Let's be sure that we maximise our race. 14 laps to go.

Careful with last part of throttle application out of pan 10.

Sainz, two car ahead of you, has some car damage.

1-3. That's Sainz. That's Ruta. We're in.

Right, 10 laps to go. 10 laps to go. We can use the tyres. We can use the tyres. 10 laps to go. Just be mindful of the traction ratios.

Suggestion, special 1.6, special 1.6. Nine laps to go. What do you mean special 1.6?

I was just on the SIS. Jumped on oversteer.

Suggestion, use 6 gear in plan 6.

I just jumped. B-Bal plus one. B-Bal plus one.

Six laps to go.

Suggestion, silver pin 7. Silver pin 7.

I'd love to go. I'd love to go.

Oh, man. Oh, free laps to go. Free laps to go.

So just do a special 2-turn-13, special 2-turn-13.

Two laps to go. Two laps to go.

That's the ticker flag, that's the ticker flag. Mode M, mode N.

Man, that was a tough one, eh?

And remain there when you arrive to Parc fermé. We'll switch and proceed. Copy.
