11:48:45
Russell is opening a lap.
11:48:54
B-Bal offset plus one hundred.
11:49:07
I actually can't pick up the pace. I'm a little bit short of the sound lap.
11:50:09
And recharge off. We're ready.
11:51:48
Let us know if you'd like us to come in for a flap adjust. Well, the flap is quiet. I just slide a lot. It's over my grip.
11:51:59
Understood, Max. The lap was looking fine until the final two corners.
11:52:46
Any improvement in the balance limitations relative to the first run or not? Good.
11:52:51
In case you didn't want to grip it, then it's understeer with corner now.
11:52:58
But also the car, the bumps, the pressures, it's just not good. Like, I don't feel a lot of grip.
11:53:13
Okay, I'm set so focus on cooling the tyres.
11:53:41
And fail 10. Fail 1-0. Fail when you can.
11:54:24
Leclerc opening a lap. Approaching.
11:55:08
Which corners are you suffering with the lack of front most, Max, please?
11:55:15
Seven, twelve, seventeen.
11:55:29
Thank you. I mean, but at the same time, sort of, there is some particular grade.
11:55:35
OK, would you like us to give you a recommendation or you just have to go again? Yeah, we could try. Tell me something.
11:55:48
OK, then pull toggle for turn 7 and 17. 7, 17, pull toggle.
11:56:00
Follow Pinto behind on an outlap, so maintain position.
11:57:42
OK, we'll box this lap, please, Max. You can keep up the pace on the way. Box this lap.
11:59:00
At box max, live pit stop and switch off.
12:15:45
OK, Max, so Antonelli at 3.5. He is high fuel.
12:15:56
And there's a clear track behind you all the way to turn 17 at the moment.
12:16:07
Right, the other cars ahead, they took the lead at left, right? Yes, can't be sure about Lando. Obviously, he's just come out of the pitlane.
12:16:21
I would maybe have assumed that his outlap wouldn't have been so slow if he was on the orbit. Obviously, we never know, so we need to leave margin.
12:16:50
A lot of talk for Lando about traffic ahead, so I assume Lando is low fuel.
12:17:00
Collar pin to a nine seconds max, so just wait the tyres or brakes to pull the team.
12:18:42
OK, we'll have a double slow-max.
12:18:50
Russell coming through now.
12:18:55
Piastri, five seconds.
12:18:59
He's not on DRS, but he's pushing.
12:19:18
I can't rely on the rear. It's still second, drifting everywhere.
12:19:26
Should we come through the pitlane for a flap adjust?
12:19:31
Oh, sorry, I need a pit corner.
12:19:37
No Fernando coming through us.
12:19:40
I think it's worth learning something, Max, to be honest with you, rather than just completing another lap in the same configuration. But we'll leave that to you.
12:20:01
And Bortoleto's seven.
12:20:48
Antonelli and Leclerc coming through now.
12:20:57
And Norris, five seconds. Time lap.
12:21:05
Hulkenberg, four seconds.
12:21:25
Next car behind Russell is 4.
12:21:33
And Piastri at 4.
12:22:53
So, both Aston Martins will come through before turn 40.
12:23:03
Bortoleto is the next car. Seven seconds. He is high fuel.
12:23:09
Both Astons also, I feel. What do you want me to do? So, Bortoleto, three seconds. Now you can let him through.
12:23:21
OK, maintain track position to Gasly please, Max. Gasly at 2.5.
12:23:34
He backs out. Recharge up. Flip ready.
12:24:27
Leclerc and Norris approaching turn 9.
12:24:38
I have understeer at turn 80 and oversteer at turn 90.
12:24:56
Liam Lawson and Piastri at two and a half, both of them coming through.
12:25:14
Let's have one more call-up, please, Max.
12:25:25
And if you reset your brake virus offset, then we can have B-Bal 10. B-Bal 10. Hadjar coming through on a push lap. Colopinto is out lap.
12:26:14
Antonelli behind is on an outlap.
12:26:18
We then have Ocon and both Aston Martins coming through.
12:26:42
OK, so Bortoleto behind at turn 6. Next car behind, that is Norris, turn 2.
12:26:52
The gap here, Max, is, yeah, to start the lap ahead of Lando. Bortoleto, two seconds.
12:27:05
Gap to Norris 14 seconds.
12:27:32
Gap ahead is nine, so all good. And we recharge off when ready.
12:27:39
Currently yellow flags, turn 18. Bortoleto stopped, presumably off track on the exit. Haven't seen that. Yeah, hit the wall. Red flag, box.
12:43:01
Red Bull Car 1, driver. Red Bull Car 1, driver.
