Radio check. Loaded barrel in.
15:54:15
Are you trying to go into tyre on the switch?
15:54:24
Oh, sorry, I didn't hear you.
15:55:19
So, I'll lead the formation up. We'll start behind the safety car.
15:55:25
Do you want tyre 4 then? Yep, tyre 4 on it.
15:56:29
So, all eight in the turbo position one.
15:56:38
B9, position 4.
15:56:47
I'm low at the E4, positioned by the...
15:57:16
Can you make a note about multi-function B rotary, please? I'll let you know to the race. Copy.
15:59:04
Set leveller arm, Ali.
15:59:09
Your radio is super loud. Try and cover it.
15:59:20
All cars are entered except Sainz on the web. Except who? Sainz.
16:02:01
Oli, feedback on visibility.
16:02:06
Er, not the best.
16:02:50
My rear brakes are cold.
16:03:03
I only have front brakes.
16:03:09
Apparently it's multi-function B, position 8-2-8.
16:03:34
I've got no rear brakes. This should come up now.
16:03:55
I suggest one percent rearwards on brake balance to get some temp. Well, you didn't even tell me if we're racing.
16:04:05
No, we're not racing, are we?
16:04:22
So, Oli, it's red flag, red flag, because you want to come into the pitlane and stop in the order you arrived.
16:04:46
Olli, multifunction B, 8-2, position 6.
16:05:31
Maybe a right peak is not working.
16:05:35
Copy, so we are with box now and just line up in formation.
16:06:57
Can I have a fan for me, please?
16:13:16
Thank you. Thank you.
16:13:26
Thank you.
16:20:59
Radar check.
16:21:03
Yeah, I'll let him clear.
16:21:10
Copy. Yeah, I really think this is going to evolve pretty rapidly. It already has.
16:21:27
Oli, I know it's tricky, but thoughts on car balance? Obviously it's going to be a lot drier now. Yeah, but now it's all OK. Where were we from dry? Minus one percent dry in car balance. I guess this makes sense now, in your opinion. Yeah, this would be a normal adjust. I just think it's drier than we think. And it will be a dry race. Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised with conditions like this if we cross over.
16:22:08
I'm not really sure what axle to protect. I know the front is always a bit weak on this tyre.
16:22:28
Yeah, so let's be looking at that, but also for a start car balance, I'm tempted to increase slightly.
16:22:48
Yeah, it's tricky because the rear is overheating and the front loads will be limited. Yeah, exactly. Okay, let's go like this.
16:22:59
In these conditions you've just got to push. That's the first objective. Keep it clean.
16:23:12
In case of a dry start, when do we switch to mode push from RS?
16:23:20
I'll be turn 8 early.
16:23:28
I was just under five minutes on it.
16:23:41
Do we have any more rain coming?
16:24:02
Could you clean my mirrors if that's okay?
16:25:28
So, Olly, currently rear stroller, thinking two laps behind the safety car. Helping us out a bit, whether it be a rolling or a standing start. If it's a standing start, you start in P18 on the right-hand side.
16:25:45
On the right-hand side? Yeah, because it'll take up in the third spot, because there you won't be starting. Okay. Just remind me of that, please. Yeah, and race control said they'll try and get the light panels working on the grid.
16:26:46
Are they going to take laps off the race?
16:27:05
Yeah, I'll reconfirm and reduce the distance.
16:28:19
Radio check, Oleg.
16:30:36
Feedback on track conditions? Much drier. Much, much drier.
16:30:51
Olli, multi-function V8 to position 5.
16:31:17
I think there is a car ahead dropping oil or something. My visor is like getting something off that's not water.
16:32:10
OK, I'll ace a confirm. It will be a standing start. Safety car is currently in turn 16.
16:32:17
Your grid slot will be P18 on the right-hand side.
16:32:39
How many laps will there be?
16:32:50
Sixteen to go when it starts, Oli, sixteen.
16:32:54
Is anyone else complaining about, like, something other than water on that screen?
16:33:21
OK, helmet enabled on us.
16:33:26
One burnout early, one burnout, and then back to mode RS.
16:33:49
Right hand side. Right hand side at P18, should be behind Doohan.
16:33:59
That might be a light panel with your name on it.
16:41:34
Twelve laps to go. Twelve to go.
16:42:47
OK, Olli, feedback on tyres.
16:42:53
They're OK, front limited in quite a big way, particularly in low speed.
16:50:09
How many laps to go? Seven to go, I'll let you know. Well, we have the box.
16:50:26
I think we should box eventually. Copy.
16:51:33
Set. You see. Oh, it makes sense.
16:52:12
Close on exit with Tsunoda. Should push on exit.
16:53:51
Five to go, Ollie. Five to go. Currently P11.
16:54:57
No K1, just DRS. Safety car, safety car. We'll stay out, Ali, stay out. Mode slow.
16:55:05
Watch your delta. Is anyone yet to stop? Yeah, you're currently P9. Everyone has stopped.
16:55:18
Penalty for lost initial.
16:56:07
Everyone around you is on a medium.
16:58:37
Are you sure I used K1 instead of SOP2?
16:58:43
Oh, so cool.
16:59:19
Yeah, the car hasn't moved.
16:59:22
I think we won't restart. In my opinion.
16:59:38
Get as close as you can to Lawson. Who are they? Lawson as well.
17:01:26
Next lap is the last one, right?
17:02:32
Okay, all aces here. Just starting the final lap.
17:03:07
OK, Ollie, safety car in this lap. This is the last lap. Yeah, but there's no overtaking. No overtaking, just stay as close to Lawson.
17:04:32
Norris has the pack in 17th.
17:04:53
Okay, check the flag, check the flag, well done. Mode in, mode in.
17:05:03
Currently P8, Oli. Nice one, man.
17:05:09
What the hell is going on? You drove really well, well-deserved. We'll see what penalties come our way. Our way?
17:05:26
Sorry, I'll repeat. You said a penalty is coming our way. No, no, we'll see whatever penalties come our way. See what penalties are ahead. But not for us. Okay, okay.
17:05:38
Careful. Careful how you're watching.
17:05:46
Hey, good job there. Is that another point? Yeah, that's currently one point.
17:05:53
Haha, not bad. Not bad for a P20. OK, really good job, Oli.
17:06:04
Man, that outlap on the medium was sketchy.
17:06:40
Ayo, you remember what I said. Tomorrow is a new day. So, good job and let's have a good quali now. Great drive from you. Well done, Audi. Thanks.
17:07:27
Easy aero, Ollie. Easy aero.
