OK, lads, so it's green at radio check, radio check.

OK, loud and clear. You can see there's, I don't know, eight cars ahead, so there'll be eight spaced out.

All good on timings and temps and everything, so we'll just make a good gap. First car is in turn 8.

Sainz is in last corner now. He's the first car.

We're watching probably Sainz and Albon. They're all evenly spaced out.

Sainz still three.

OK, so the gap to Tsunoda is five. Gap is six. Gap is seven, so you're OK. Sainz six. Sainz starting a push now. Sainz four. Sainz five behind pushing and then Albon ten. We can use energy out of Thor. Sainz 3.5. Sainz three.

I can use energy again and then Sainz pushing to behind.

That's Sainz 1.5. Next car is Russell outlap. Russell behind is an outlap. Behind him is Albon. Albon's on a timed lap. Albon 3 behind. We can use energy here.

Albon 4 behind. So we believe Sainz is on a prep, we believe Albon is on a prep, but they are on time-lapse, you can't hold them up. So definitely make a gap to Sainz. And all OK behind, all OK behind.

Good gap behind, so make a good gap ahead. And remember, go one, go one, one more brake. All OK behind, Lance.

Still OK behind and gap ahead is 5. Gap is 5.5.

So we'll get the tyre temps down, but we need to monitor the delta time. Be aware. First pushing will be Bearman. He's like 25 behind, so you're OK behind. Piastri's on the outlap. Piastri close on outlap.

We'll just stay close to the Delta, keep the temps down.

First lap, same as Tsunoda, quicker than Sainz.

Bearman pushing 25 behind. And then you have those two cars ahead and then there's loads of cars on the running straight starting up.

Afford it, Pierre. Bearman, uh, 15 behind. 20 behind him.

Okay, Lance, we just need to be aware on our delta time and get close to zero.

Zero on the delta time, so Bearman 15 behind and I guess Sainz will be pushing, so make sure you make a gap to him.

We're in sync with cars, so we just obey the delta time and we'll box into this lap.

OK, so we'll box now. Lance, box now. All OK behind you.

We're watching Fernando. He's starting a push. I think he'll be okay. He's still on the grip.

So Norris just finished a push. Norris ahead. Hadjar. Hadjar behind. He's just finished a push.

So Hadjar is on like a fast in lap, that's why he's close behind, I guess. First pushing car is Bortoleto, 12 behind. So this is our out lap and then we will do a prep lap with this medium.

Bortoleto 9. We can use energy. Use energy. Bortoleto 8-5.

Okay, Lance, so we'll switch off when we get down there.

So, Lance, it's...

Okay, Lance, so it's three minutes. Everyone's in the same situation, but our tyres are hot and they will warm up better, so we're looking good. We should be able to get push-cool-push. We'll keep you updated. So just, if the tyre's ready, we'll push the first time.

We think if you want to do the bigger braking at turn 8, we recommend plus one on the offset.

Under one minute, Lance. Under one minute. So we'll still aim for push-cool-push. Turn one on the first push will be difficult, so we don't want to push that too much. And we'll keep you updated if that timing isn't going to work out and if we think we should convert to prep-push or something. You can go to run-switch-warm-up. Run-switch-warm-up.

We'll go out of that run switch warm-up before turn 10. I'll let you know. Right now, timing-wise, push-cool-push is possible, and that's what we're aiming for.

Just to be clear, your soft laps were very good, very good, very competitive.

OK, so it's green light.

The timing is all good.

First pushing car is Piastri, he's going into 13 now, 20 behind.

Lance, timing-wise, push-cool-push is probably too tight. We think we should do prepare-push because the tyres are too cold. The tyres are too cold for first push, so from tyre side, we recommend prep-push. Okay, first pushing car, Piastri, is 15 behind.

We still have an option for an upward sometimes, if we need to. So we'll do prep, push. Piastri 12 behind.

We'll keep this one, switch warm-up for now. Piastri 12 behind and you can use energy into 13.

Piastri 10 behind and we're going to do a prep lap.

We think the first car behind Bearman is also doing a prep lap. He has Lawson ahead on an outlap.

So, Bearman 8 behind, but we believe it's a problem.

Keep building temp lengths, keep building temperature.

Bearman is seven behind on the prep.

First proper pushing car is Hulkenberg, 12 behind.

And then cars ahead. Antonelli is 8 ahead. We're in sync with him and Russell 15 ahead. So the gap ahead should be in good place. Run switch cool for now to charge the battery a little bit. Run switch cool.

Keep building temp, keep building temp. We'll have a good brake and then we'll have one switch, go one.

Take some weaving if you can. All okay behind.

Remember, go one, go one.
