11:37:14
A couple of cars coming through now. Norris in a slow lap, just coming alongside you now. And then Piastri behind him, also slow lap. Four seconds, so no-one pushing.
11:37:26
Quite bunched up in front, the bigger gaps are behind at the moment.
11:37:31
It's sick with everyone though, they'll be blipping this time.
11:37:36
I'll be on the second push or first? These guys are all on their second.
11:37:51
As you've got a decent gap in front of you now, nine seconds, that's as good as it's going to get. Quite a few cars around turn 12 though. Fire temps are still on one side, so no rush here at the moment. We do have Albon pushing about 10 behind. He's the only car behind that's a threat at the moment.
11:38:17
Fag in terms of run structures here. Probably two-thirds of cars on soft. Albon six behind now. Five cars to go.
11:41:01
Bit of a mixed bag out there. Just have a think about balance. If you want to flap adjust, let us know please.
11:52:15
Very good charge-off. Box this lap, please. Can I have an aero P4 fifth gear after turn four, please?
11:52:25
I saw Antonelli behind. Correction, Antonelli's finished the time lap. So we're going to aero P4, 5th gear down to 5. We're going to repeat the same, 15 to 17.
11:52:47
That's good. OK, so we're going to repeat that. 15.17, please. Aero P4, fifth gear, no traffic behind, and we'll beat Fox.
11:53:10
So when we come in the pitlane, we're going to stop outside the front of the garage, please. So look for the mechanics there. Just need to leave the pitbox clear.
11:53:24
It's sad, basically, when I go on the kerb out of step 12, I always get like a pretty slow upshift.
12:02:33
OK, so same outlap as before, please. Let's just be cautious in the corners. Happy to make up the time needed on straights if required. Using that safety car lap time records for this one.
12:02:50
Cars on track. Hulkenberg at the last corner. He's just finishing a timed lap. Sick with
12:03:01
Fastest lap so far, 16.5 for Piastri, half a second.
12:03:07
Clear of traffic behind. Standard out.
12:03:13
I have understeer at turn 80 and oversteer at turn 90.
12:03:21
OK, so Leclerc on an outlap behind, tipping his pace up, watch for him, and then Russell pushing about five back.
12:03:30
Russell is sustainable, so 5 behind for him. Russell 3 behind. Once he's through, the next car pushing is Norris, another 12 back.
12:03:49
Please be negative on the delta, if we can.
12:03:56
Seven second gap in front. Stroll in front. Perhaps go in front of him, if you can.
12:04:08
I'm pushing behind Norris. Six seconds. Going in front of Stroll, that will work. If not, we need to... Yeah, I can't. Sorry, mate. Let's let Norris through. Four behind. He's pushing. Clear behind him, though. He's very close behind us. Sorry, mate. Let's try pushing. Try and hold this position. If we can, we're good to go.
12:06:00
OK, recharge on and double cool. Three with that time currently. That's the half of the lead.
12:06:08
Yeah, I lost a bit of car at turn 4, I think. Yeah, it's OK, we saw that. No worries at all. We're getting another go at this now, so we're going to drive through the pitlane at the end of this lap. Cool, tyres down. Would you like flap adjust with that?
12:06:30
No, I'm pretty happy with the, pretty happy with the flap. Watch for Piastri pushing behind now. Four seconds.
12:06:45
OK, mate, that's good. So we are going to box the end of this lap to drive through. If you change your mind about the flap, let us know. We're ready.
12:06:55
So, in terms of overall sectors, it's very, very close, 10 and above.
12:21:42
Two burnouts on a staff at the end, please.

12:22:19
OK, can we toggle recharge? Scenario 3, please. Apologies. Scenario 3.
12:22:42
Clear the height, good space, pushing to the end. Just to confirm, we back the flap back to ready to... We did. You just made six turns down. So we're all set.
12:23:09
No transcript available
12:23:14
So we've got a good spot track here, should get five laps.
12:23:33
Start with low fuel in front.
12:23:48
Right, so five laps from now. No DRS. A bit of margin on that time as well in case we do need to back off.
12:24:17
Run 1 in turn 3, so let's check it's all good.
12:24:22
Understood. Looking up.
12:24:45
Oh my god, I touched an animal. An animal and then I fell off, so I'm going to go to box. Okay, understood. Box now, please, box now.
12:25:00
So nice and steady on the way in please. Box now. Look everything over, OK? Nice and steady on the way in.
12:25:14
Okay, so we'll stop on the marks and switch off, bring the car in, just have a good look over everything, see if we can get you out from the start.
