And pitlane radio check, Alex. Loud and clear. Yep, that's loud and clear. Should be one car ahead of you. That is one minute to the green light.

And we can keep the engine on, Alex.

Panel is in zone mediums.

Repeat, please, Alex. Hamilton is on mediums. Thank you.

We'll be once past. OK, copy. These cars are likely backing out. Watch Bortoleto.

These cars are likely backing up to open a lap.

Anyone behind? Verstappen, four seconds.

We can go purple, C3 position 6 for free-speed tonight. Tsunoda's gone hard, hasn't he?

Watch Verstappen.

I could hear like three people on the radio at once then.

Copy. Watch for Bearman. Two seconds. Maybe in phase.

And purple C3-1 for free speed.

Watch for Hadjar. Three seconds.

Copy. And Hadjar, two seconds.

One second. Cars behind are in the phase.

And before turn six, purple C3 position 5, 180 kph, fourth gear, and we are box this lap.

OK, copy. It was very difficult to hear what you were telling me at turn one. I could hear three people talking at once for some reason. Yeah, we understand that.

Copy that. And Colapinto, four seconds. Watch Colapinto.

Cars behind are in phase. Box this lap.

And purple C3 position 6 and remember the pit limiter.

Stop and about. Engine on.

Four seconds box this lap.

Two seconds.

Cars behind are in phase.

And purple C3 position 6. Remember the pit limiter and we'll be stopping in front of our garage.

Copy. I'll expect that.

Do you want me to switch off? Yeah, switch off the engine.

How long is this turnaround? I wouldn't mind going for a B. It is a 12-minute turnaround.

I think I can or would you prefer semi? It's tight on time, it depends how much of an emergency. I'll stay in it, sorry.

And recharge on for a cool-down lap. Check top left toggle. 17 seconds gap to car behind. Some cars leaving the pitlane now. They'll be in phase. Copy.

Sainz may be pushing on his out lap.

And Alex, how's the lap? Um, pretty okay, I think. I'm not pushing the high speed enough to tell completely yet, but I think if we put more in, it wouldn't be an issue. Okay, copy. For times, we'll complete this cool-down lap, open another two push laps.

Are our attempts OK? Attempts are coming down. We could go a bit slower. There's space to cars behind. We want a nice gap to open the lap as well. So you want a gap to Sainz ahead.

And turn 4, focus on exit. Peak pressure and release looks good. Cool. How's the overlap?

Watch the yellow flags ahead and Antonelli pushing two seconds.

We can open the lap. Open the lap. Track clear.

Check top right toggle. Keep pushing. Copy.

And recharge on. We are box this lap.

Cars behind look to be currently in phase.

Car feels quite nice. But I think a little bit more flap would help.

Copy, Alex. So we're going to pit for the soft tyre and put two holes of flap in. And just take care entering the box. Oscar reports it's quite bumpy and watch the rock on. Three seconds. Copy.

Behind Ocon, cars are in phase.

On the green light, pull away from the stop.

Watch Verstappen turn one now. There's a gap behind him of seven seconds.

And Alex, opportunity DRF activation. We're around 10 metres late out of turn three in the final corner.

And to avoid the turn 3 entry snap, an earlier braking point may help. Next car pushing is Stroll, eight seconds.

Just Ocon waiting. Correction, Ocon is pitting. Track ahead clear. Happy to open the lap. This will be a double push.

And recharge on, cool down lap. We'll prepare the car for another single push.

What are your thoughts on a double cool?

For timings, Alex, we will go with a single call. All right, copy.

Cars behind should be in phase. There was a yellow flag at turn one.

And Alex, opportunity, focus on the exit in high speed. Entry speed is too high. Watch for Russell, he may be pushing behind. Two seconds.

Yeah, copy. The high-speed was just testing stuff. It wasn't on purpose.

Copy that. Next car six seconds, Hamilton. Gap ahead should be good to open the lap.

And recharge on with a boxes lap.

Track behind is clear. And out of turn 3, can we have purple C3 position 7? That is a 260 kph 7th gear and recharge reminder.

Yeah, I just paid attention to the position, but I put it in C2 by mistake. Sorry. Yeah, no worries. And we're box this lap. Car behind six seconds.

Faganovic, five seconds.

And stop on the marks. Engine on.

I'm pretty happy with that. I thought that was all right. Yeah, not too shabby. Will, how was the overlap and the release in Phase 3 and 4? Was it better than Austin? We'll just wait to get plugged in, Alex, and then we'll talk to you. Yeah, copy. My bad.

I have understeer at turn 80 and oversteer at turn 90.

OK, Alex, reports of some more rain around the track. We have eight seconds back to Tsunoda, so back off and make a gap for data gathering. Copy. And toggle recharge.

Five seconds to Tsunoda. We can make a good gap. Four seconds.

And Alex, we've boxed this lap. You can keep pushing. It'll be the nose box change.

And we can go recharge on. Box is lap.

Five seconds to Antonelli behind.

Copy that. Three more seconds, boxed out.

Tsunoda, two seconds.

OK, Alex, so we'll keep recharge on. We're going to want out of turn 3 the CSL again, which will be purple, C3 position 7.

Just under three and a half minutes.

And then we'll try and find a gap to get the time-lapse to the end. Stroll turn 1. Next car, Albon turn 1. Check top left toggle. Copy. How long is left of session?

Watch for Albon. And purple C3 position 7, 260, 7th gear.

And we've now purpled C3 position 6, free speed. When you've got a good gap, recharge off, start pushing. Colapinto is four seconds back, so we can use some of that gap. Yeah, copy.

I'm going to make a gap. Copy. Six seconds gap behind.

Two seconds, let's go.

And, Alex, this will be the chequered flag. You keep pushing. Just take care. Cars ahead maybe on a cool-down lap.

Am I allowed to overtake?

You're up, but let's go recharge on. There's a lot of traffic ahead, so recharge on. Copy.

Well, I want to say a massive thank you. I think a little boy's dream came true. This is definitely the best day of my life, so thank you everyone for letting me do this. And thanks Lando himself for trusting me with his car.

You're very welcome. Good job as well. That was quite a busy session. So we've got one last thing to do, which will be boxing the car for pitstop practice. Yeah, copy. Thank you, everyone. It means a lot.

And Alex for the pitstop practice, reminder to hold the brake in the stop.

Box now.

Pit stop practice. Hold the brakes in the stop.

I have a double engine oil.

OK, Alex, good job. We'll get you wheeled back into the garage. The guys are just preparing for Oscar's stop as well. Yeah, copy.

Once we get you back in and plugged in, I'll get some quick comments and then come and join us on the central island so we can get you back and prepared for lap two on time. Yeah, copy. I really need the toilet.
