16:56:58
Engine off or not? Yep, let's switch off and just over three minutes until pitlane open.
16:57:15
Back to P1 or stay in zero? You can go back to P1.
16:57:32
Do you want me to let Gabi by on the outlap? No, we were thinking we can swap on the inlap.
16:58:08
And two minutes now until pitlane open. We will fire up in around one minute fifteen.
16:58:34
There's already 10 cars in the queue here. We would take it easy to safety car line 2.
16:59:26
Okay, Nico, let's fire up.
17:00:46
So, cars in front are Doohan and then Bearman and Ocon.
17:01:03
Ocon is in turn 13 now.
17:01:14
That's two and 11 seconds in front and Bearman has four in front of him.
17:01:37
And now Doohan's backing off a bit. Doohan 10 in front, 9 in front now.
17:01:53
Ocon is approaching the last corner now.
17:02:02
Stuins seven in front and eight seconds in front of him is Bearman. Bearman is opening now.
17:02:15
And Doohan's in the last corner.
17:02:21
We'll be in mode push.
17:04:02
Car behind Hamilton is opening a lap now. Watch for Hamilton. And all clear from behind him.
17:04:12
Car behind is Gabi. He will overtake you on this in lap.
17:04:20
It was a very clean lap up until the last corner. We are currently P2.
17:04:26
Yeah, still, at front locking it's really annoying, even though we're quite rearwards with everything, just over the bumps there. Gaby needs to push on obviously to catch me with the minimum time. Yep, I think he knows we're telling him.
17:04:59
And reset your engine braking. B-B-7.
17:05:22
And only time lost to Gabi is braking turn one.
17:05:31
Still clear from behind.
17:05:39
There will be some cars opening a lap in front of us now.
17:05:45
Piastri in front of us. We're going to lap now.
17:05:54
Fox, Nico, Fox, what do you think about flat angle? I think we're good. Yeah, it was OK. OK, let's stay.
17:06:12
We suggest B make a four.
17:06:34
We are currently P7. Albon is P3 with a 28.86.
17:07:03
And we can go now.
17:07:10
And Hadjar is opening a lap now. He's on the start-finish line.
17:07:18
Hadjar approaching turn one and Tsunoda is four seconds behind him, also pushing. So next is Tsunoda, four seconds, pushing.
17:07:30
Sorry, Tsunoda just closed the lap, so he's slow now.
17:07:37
And all clear from behind.
17:07:45
We have Alonso 10 seconds in front, in sync with us.
17:07:56
Alonso is in turn 13, exit.
17:08:04
Come on, let's go SOC 5.
17:08:09
Car behind now is Stroll, two seconds, also in sync with us.
17:08:23
Fernando Alonso, 10 seconds in front.
17:08:28
First car pushing will be Doohan. He's exiting turn 13 now.
17:08:40
And we suggest E-B plus one in turn 13.
17:08:46
Alonso, eight seconds in front in the last corner now.
17:08:52
And Doohan is 12 seconds behind pushing.
17:10:40
And nice lap there, Nico. All clear from behind.
17:11:00
And if you could push on this in lap, it helps your timing.
17:11:09
So we are currently P13.
17:11:28
And it's a very tight field, as expected, less than a tenth to the cutoff.
17:12:05
Oh my gosh, aerobalance a bit more, but not a crazy amount. Yeah, I think so too. One or two steps.
17:12:15
And weightbridge, weightbridge.
17:14:37
And that's three and a half minutes until end of Q1.
17:15:06
And three minutes now.
17:15:13
And Antonelli is opening it up now. Antonelli approaching turn one. Doohan is nine seconds behind him. Doohan is crossing the start-finish line now.
17:15:25
And Doohan approaching turn one. And there's a 10-second gap behind Doohan.
17:15:34
You win two seconds.
17:15:38
Car behind now is Gabi, in sync with you.
17:15:44
Next car pushing is Hadjar, 12 seconds.
17:15:54
And Stroll is in turn 13. He's in sync with us.
17:16:00
Hadjar eight seconds behind.
17:16:16
And 10 seconds behind Hadjar and Verstappen. Hadjar 3.
17:16:33
And next is Verstappen 9.
17:16:43
Verstappen seven. Stroll's in the last corner now, opening a lap.
17:16:53
Verstappen. Verstappen, five and a half.
17:17:31
I'm struggling to see. Gabi spun, Gabi spun. I don't know what happened now with the front steering switch on here.
17:17:48
And Hamilton is pushing six behind.
17:17:58
Hamilton five behind pushing.
17:18:05
Hamilton, four behinds pushing, and behind him is Leclerc, seven seconds.
17:18:26
And next is Leclerc 7.
17:19:07
Yeah, that's P18 for us, Nico, unfortunately.
17:19:15
And the cutoff was Hadjar with a 28.57.
