Fernando, radio check. Thumbs up, yeah. Copy.

Yep, radio check.

Yeah, that's all out of climate.

That's just under six and a half minutes now.

Maybe Andy, because conditions were very different on the lap to the grid. I think we need a safety car laps, especially we've never been through turn one any other year here in Miami in wet conditions.

Radio check.

Yeah, I'm good.

Hey Fernando, so just a quick radio check for the fuel. Yep. All good, so you've just got over three minutes now. The formation lap will be behind the safety car. Formation lap behind the safety car.

Yeah, but that doesn't add or change anything, you know. It's the first lap of the race that we need maybe some guidance from the safety car.

Fernando, so, tyres are in. Everyone is on enter, it's just Sainz, P15, he's on the forward.

Now one minute to go.

30 seconds. Still expecting very little rain in the first 20 minutes to half an hour of the race.

So we're happy to try and work these tyres longitudinally where we can. Try and build some temp.

Launch was 15 over.

Still lack of planning on the back straight. Not sure it's safe now.

Copy, we see the lock-ups, that's mythical. Understood.

We expect at least two laps behind the safety car. Yeah, the problem is the visibility on the straights.

OK, that's red flag, red flag, so front switch safety car, keep it positive. Back into the pitlane, into the pitlane.

Therabinder just following the group into the pitlane and Therabinder used the pitlimiter as well.

Remember, just leave a decent gap to the car ahead under the pit wall as well, where you stop.

Yeah, that's all loud and clear. Five minutes 40 now.

Fernando, in terms of start target, you were plus 15, I think, on the formation lap. That's actually good for us. So we've updated the targets in the car. So if you target zero on the dash now, that's what we'd like.

So we're hearing it'll be at least two laps behind the safety car. So that would make it maximum 16 lap race.

Yeah, copy. Start thinking about when the DRS is the last lap, it's worth fitting it. Fernando, do you repeat, sorry? Start calculating when, if we fit the DRS, when is the last lap that is worth taking that gamble. Copy.

Well, that's two and a half minutes now. Just some more info. So if it becomes a standing start, the grid will update to the current position. So you are now P9, so that'll be left hand side.

Copy. Understeer.

Fiscal thermic. No further rain expected.

That is now one minute.

You need the P5.

Yeah, we can do one now, Fernando.

So, first car's out of the pitlane now.

No transcript available

It will be a standing start and it will be the end of this lap.

Let's get some big lifts into 11 and 17.

Hey Fernando, it'll be five burnouts. Five burnouts left-hand side, P9. Remember, press and hold K0 during the burnouts as well.

New road switch, race 2.

Last car approaching now, we're watching.

Minus eight, only minus eight.

15 laps to go. Lawson 1.6 back.

So, rear tyres on the hotter side so we can start to cool the rears.

So just focusing on cooling the rears where you can. Lift at coast is good. Let's take some wet patches as well where possible.

So it'll be twelve to go in the end of this one. Give us feedback on track condition when you can.

Yeah, similar.

Just start to manage front a little bit more in sector 1.

They're getting drier in sector one now. How many laps? Does it tend to go into this one? It's close to crossover for us timing-wise, but obviously not many. It's only a small grindline.

Fairfax mainly just focusing on managing fronts turn five to eight right now. Yeah, but it's dry there, so I try to do calculations on the dry tyres.

Obviously, if only people behind us stop and we don't need to overtake, maybe it's a good option.

Well, let's say the risk of stopping is just falling behind people. Yes, we agree. Ten to go.

Yes, struggling with the tyres. Everyone but also us.

How many people stopped behind?

Nobody has stopped yet. Quite a few cars are talking about it. Nobody has stopped yet.

Eight laps to go. Eight to go. DRF now enabled.

If we stop, we'll go behind everyone right now.

So consider using a white button for rotation. We're happy to open up entry and mid as well. Tsunoda has just stopped onto a medium.

I mean, I will be happy to stop.

But I don't have all the numbers with me.

It'll be seven to go, end of this one. Our preference right now is to stay out.

Yeah, I'm not sure. Every lap will be one second slower.

Lance has stopped up to medium. Hamilton's gone as well. I think Sainz. We don't expect them to be able to catch up. Tsunoda was now fast in sector 2.

I'll keep you updated. Yeah, I'm still thinking better to stop.

I think it's going to be very slow the last couple of laps.

Six to go into this one. We will be behind several cars. We think they're going to stay out. We don't think it's worth it right now. But I can pass. What position we will exit?

P60. It's yellow turn 50. Stay out.

Okay, so lots of cars going now, so we're happy to start covering these cars.

I didn't get your message.

Okay, so we'll box this lap. It'll be a medium tyre. Box, box.

Tyre green dry R and run switch race.

Wait, are you? OK. Yeah, I'm OK. OK, got it. I knew this.

I'm just going to confirm the car's state for now, don't stop the bike.

Okay, car is safe, so P1 then P0. Sorry mate.
