Fernando, radio check. Thumbs up.

12:55:12

OK, ready to shake thumbs up? OK, good stuff. So that's just under five minutes then.

12:55:40

Yep, radio check. Yeah, all good. Taxi queue goes up. Radio check, Fernando. Yeah, all good. That's four minutes twenty now.

12:57:34

Ok, Fernando, ready to check for the pitwall? Yep. All good. So that's two and a half minutes now. Tyres are in. Everyone is on the soft tyre, it's just Tsunoda medium for the pitlane.

12:59:08

That's four minutes.

12:59:38

OK, that's 30 seconds. When you get going, priority is to get some high speed weaving before turn one. We're happy to make a little bit of space in turn one itself.

13:00:15

13:00:29

Launchers plus nine. Plus nine.

13:00:35

50m lift before turn 1. Brake and then we can make a bit of space. Lean on tyres through turn 2-3.

13:00:59

High-speed weaving before 4.50. Lift. Keep pushing through 4 and 5 if you can.

13:01:18

Bit of weaving now and then try and get a 50 lift before seven.

13:01:29

Leaning on tyres through turn 9 if you can. High speed weaving before 10.

13:01:44

High-speed weaving and then a good brake. No lift and coast required.

13:01:52

Try and get some low speed scrubbing in now while you're waiting. Push through turn 12 if we can.

13:02:15

Staying on the racing line now. We're waiting on turn 14, you can do some low speed scrubbing.

13:02:37

There will be two burnouts. Two burnouts. Remember, press and hold K0.

13:03:05

Clips are looking good, so run, switch, race when you can put a stop.

13:03:11

We are watching. Last car approaching the grid now.

13:03:23

Minus twenty.

13:04:54

DRF will be activated to end this lap.

13:06:43

I think in turn one at the start I've been hit on the right rear. Everything feels okay but worth checking.

13:06:58

Copy. We saw pressure's good for now. We'll keep checking.

13:07:13

No concern on rear right.

13:10:26

Bortoleto behind, still have DRS.

13:11:48

Bortoleto does not have DRS. So you're P11 now on lap 7.

13:12:21

Yeah, understeer building.

13:13:08

OK, so we're happy to use right toggle where you need for the understeer.

13:14:33

Shape 2. Ready understeer. Low speed. Shape 2. Let's get Strat 7. Strat 7.

13:17:28

Copy. Understeer like hell, mate. But the rear is not hurt. Anyway, so, I don't know, maybe 0.4 more.

13:20:43

Yeah, I think we've finished the front left. Okay, copy. Bortoleto at the off-pump, two back.

13:20:55

Let us know how the front left looks.

13:20:58

Yeah, it's finished, but I don't know, now we need to commit to something.

13:21:19

If you can continue, that suggests that you do.

13:23:27

Yes, yellow button, turn 5, more e-beat.

13:23:31

I think I finish the front left, we can stop.

13:23:56

Yeah, you call me.

13:24:22

Tire green, dry R before you stop.

13:24:40

So if you're close to Colapinto and Sainz at pit exit, bracing them.

13:25:01

Right now, Fernando. Can you put more flap? A little bit, plus 0.5%.

13:25:09

I can manage, but we managed to finish last, so I don't care too much.

13:25:33

And the deployment is just ridiculous. I have not mentioned it. What is... I mean, what is this D-Rate?

13:26:05

Plane deployments. Now on lap 17. We are on plan A still. Plan A stop lap.

13:28:02

Sides ahead is six lap Albersop.

13:28:56

Yeah, your pitlane number is three seconds maybe. Wrong.

13:29:20

How was the front left? Completely finished.

13:31:28

I need to manage a little bit more in turn 9 and 14.

13:32:48

Fernando, just to let you know, so DEG is very much plan A for now, so lots of others doing sub-optimal plan A. Let's just do our race and see what comes at the end of it.

13:32:58

Yeah, but, I mean, I can leave 1,013, you know, but...

13:33:04

Then we secure P20, I don't know.

13:33:20

You tell me. I'm open to any suggestion. I drive as you wish. We'll see the lap time and then we adjust.

13:34:11

OK, so what you were doing before, Fernando, is OK. We're just refurbing. It's plan A stop-lap. What you were doing before was OK.

13:34:30

I'm losing the front again, so...

13:34:34

Yeah, unlikely we'll go to target lap.

13:35:33

Pre-4 and consider torque 5 as well. Ahead of Lawson, there's two cars. Albon on 7 lap older tyres.

13:38:20

Three lap newer mediums. Ahead of him is Bearman doing 22.0 on the 17 lap medium.

13:40:58

I'll take some more aerobalance feedback when you've got a second.

13:41:09

Yeah, 15-20% more aero balance in some of the washout problems.

13:42:23

We're now on lap 29.

13:47:58

Do you want to try something different or secure this position?

13:49:13

Blue flags, high dubbers as well with that turn 5 issue that are on the same plane, so we think this is OK for now.

13:49:20

Good, so we're secure this position.

13:50:34

This is now lap 35.

13:51:55

This compound looks the best as well. You've got Hulkenberg still lapping well on the 26 lap set, so this compound is the best for now.

13:54:40

Try looking like it is. Just let others take the blues from behind. We are looking at plan A plus five.

13:55:57

Fernando, final slip will be attacking. We're thinking air balance plus 0.5.

13:56:08

Yeah, 0.5, 0.6.

13:59:41

Yeah, check the front end before turn nine. It was oscillating.

14:00:07

We are checking deployment. Looks okay for now. We'll keep checking.

14:01:45

You might see signs at pit exit. Here's seven lap old medium.

14:03:11

So Bortoleto, who was behind you, he stayed out and he's taking a lot of blues, so that should be okay for now.

14:04:06

What was the lap time before we stopped?

14:04:27

You did it 22.0 on the last lap before you stopped.

14:04:36

So, three seconds a lap. So, ten seconds maybe. Seven or eight laps, as we said this morning.

14:07:06

Ahead of Lawson you've got Bearman and then Gasly. They're both on the medium 7 and 11 lap older tyres, so they're the target. If we get both of them we'll get a point.

14:11:07

The next blues will be Norris, who's two back, and Verstappen, one behind him.

14:12:00

Blue for Norris. Verstappen is one and a half behind him.

14:17:14

Safety car, safety car. Yeah, box. Agreed, red switch.

14:17:54

Box in the flat road but push up the SE1 line. Do race, vintage race.

14:18:24

Remember, push all the way to the safety car line. It's very near turn one. Push all the way to the safety car line.

14:19:25

The ball yellow at turn 10, where Antonelli is.

14:19:39

Those tyre temps are good where they are now. I'll give you an update in a bit.

14:21:21

What are they waiting for?

14:21:28

Still waiting for the car to be cleared just to check the fuel number, Fernando, so let's just go MFA blue default A79 OK. MFA blue default A79 OK.

14:21:58

But if we need to unlap or something, let them start doing it. Yeah, fully agree. And we do expect to be, they will let us unlap. I'll give you some feedback in a second.

14:22:09

I think we'll be faster if we let some cars go.

14:22:31

You can go MSA off. Check MSA off.

14:23:11

Bortoleto's five lap older tyres. Ocon's 11. Lawson is 10.

14:23:18

Yeah, I just need a race to restart.

14:23:32

How many laps left? Nine. End of this one. Ah, come on! What are we doing?

14:24:04

Okay, roger.

14:25:57

There's no management required when we get racing.

14:28:03

Remember, before the restart, safety car is in this lap.

14:34:08

Two laps to go. Let's get Strat 6.

14:35:27

Okay, so this is the final lap. Let's get Strat 5 now and just keep pushing everything on the final lap. There might be some penalties ahead.

14:36:58

Hard earned. Well done. So run switch to warm up.

14:37:16

MFB blue. Override position 12. Nice slow in lap. Take all the pick-up you can.

14:39:34

Just a reminder, when you come to a stop, P1, five seconds, then P0.
