Just a heads up, I can't see my yellow line for the car positioning at all. I don't know if it's because it's washed cambered or something.

12:54:32

Sorry again, you can't see what I'm saying. The yellow line for my reference.

12:55:08

We could maybe have some combs on the onboard.

12:55:19

I'll stick my head in, hang on.

12:55:42

Put in line with the front of the tyre, like in the middle of the front tyre.

12:59:16

Let's see. Tyre-wise, Lawson is on the soft. Should put the limiter on.

12:59:23

He looks like he's on a wheel.

12:59:28

I'm seeing on the screen that there's a few hard starters, Verstappen, Alonso, Hamilton showing as hard.

12:59:38

Mercedes on hard as well and Colapinto and Stroll also on the hard turn.

12:59:49

OK, looks like there's an error on the screen there. Makes more sense. Medium for Lawson.

13:00:05

Five seconds. No form.

13:02:22

There we are. Gas hose to burn.

13:02:26

Bridge launchers on target.

13:04:54

BSC positive on the delta. No overtaking.

13:05:00

Focus on the tyre warming. Tsunoda, Bearman have fitted. Maybe debris at turn 8. Bortoleto has nudged into the wall there. So it's a double yellow at 8, so expect a double delta.

13:05:31

Go to the right at turn 8.

13:05:46

Brake warming and working the brakes.

13:07:07

Same again, still a double delta at turn 8.

13:07:11

Lewis Hamilton, that's probably the most positive on the Delta at the minute, which is backing you up a little bit. It's on the Delta where we can.

13:08:03

I don't know what Lewis is doing.

13:09:27

And here's the ending. Back to go race at the exit 11. Exit 11. Watch the front tyres on the restart. Exit 11.

13:14:08

Copy that. The pace ahead is relatively managed as well though.

13:15:38

Starting to get backed up. The first thing to drop will be the light cone. Reverse double yellow at turn 10.11.

13:15:45

But I don't need a plan. I don't really know what we're doing.

13:15:51

Dude, this isn't going to happen but I don't really know what we're trying to do now.

13:16:10

This is double yellow. Turn 10-11. Potential debris thereafter.

13:17:36

Double at 10.11. Pit entry is currently closed.

13:17:44

Right, sound obvious, but Liam is excessively stirring the WLO.

13:19:35

Just a minute. Purple button on.

13:20:52

We expect Hadjar to have his pick up on Lawson in about two laps.

13:23:58

The weird thing is he's actually struggling. That's the weird thing. He's actually just not quick as well. I think Isack Hadjar has fitted a soft tyre, so maybe into another pit gap for him.

13:24:28

You're right, he's going to do it. He's going to do it twice. What a fun race.

13:26:00

Gap. Get Carlos to black off. I got you on that. We do the same thing.

13:26:31

They are going to closely lead me about.

13:27:34

Gabriel Bearman and Bortoleto, for other reasons, all pitted lap 1.

13:28:54

It won't be long now, maybe a lap or two.

13:37:00

Captain Carlos behind at 2.5.

13:37:56

Focus on a step out of five.

13:39:13

Spike between four and five is the manhole cover, Alex.

13:44:42

Keep pushing. Let's close up if we can.

13:46:55

Medium tyre. There's potential blue flags coming as well. Just watch for them.

13:47:08

Okay, what was your white line on exit?

13:47:22

Start the clock, please start the clock.

13:53:20

Both safety car windows are open. Both safety car windows are open, Alonso 18.

13:55:38

They're trying to get you onto the hard tyre in the next lap or two.

13:56:53

Make sure your box is locked for hard tyre.

13:57:16

Okay, boxes, lap hard tyre, boxes, lap hard tyre. I don't need boxes.

13:57:32

At the right part of the track, looking to switch cars around.

13:57:43

I just want to warm up a bit, my knee hurt, my knee hurt.

13:58:20

Heating on the tyre now to warm it up.

13:58:42

I literally have no idea. I thought I was running 10.

14:05:42

OK, 31 laps to go. 3-1.

14:07:10

Norris, next car back 1.3. That's blue for Norris.

14:08:00

He's going to take us by second penalty. Yeah, could be. Carlos has pitted.

14:08:13

I think intentional corner cutting is worse than VLS.

14:08:29

Just the FIA in it all. That's a precedent. This is not a large one.

14:08:42

Okay, they're already looking at it.

14:08:50

What do you want me to do now?

14:08:58

OK, but what if George just goes... Nope, nope.

14:09:03

It's not that big of a penalty for that.

14:12:21

For what? You can't just...

14:12:24

Watch Verstappen as well. You've got Verstappen, Federal Blue flag 1.2. OK, we've got Blue for Verstappen.

14:12:41

Verstappen, Antonelli half a second behind.

14:12:58

What do you want the pace to be? George will need to serve a drive-through in the next few laps.

14:13:10

You've got to make a clearance to me. Are we covering George on the drive-thru? No, mid 50.

14:14:01

Back as we were, back as we were. We've got blue flag Leclerc, blue flag Leclerc. We just need to manage, need to manage.

14:14:13

Back to slow down. Yeah, so we think Carlos will be pitting this lap.

14:16:55

Who's the driver? Richard.

14:18:30

That is the worst.

14:34:08

We have a critical reliability. We need to lift through turn nine, reduce the full load time.

14:34:19

Limit the amount of full load times. Suggest a lift through 9. He's happy, isn't he? Anywhere we can reduce full throttle, the better.

14:34:35

Would it help me if I knew what it was?

14:35:56

The small lift you did at turn one was good. The 90% throttle was good.

14:39:31

Full throttle now. Full throttle is under control.

14:44:14

Well done. It's ugly, but a good demonstration of teamwork there. Well done. P9 and P10.

14:44:42

Well done, Alex. This isn't a particularly enjoyable race for any of us today, but you did great with Carlos playing the team game. Those will be valuable points in the season. Well done.

14:45:00

That was a very ugly race. I apologise to everyone watching that one. But yeah, good to get there.
