Yep, copy. Landing clear.

13:06:23

That thing is just blowing hot air now. It's just hot air.

Our safety car window is closed.

13:19:18

I was very close with the racing bull. I was side-by-side with him at turn six, so... Yeah, I understand. We will take a look.

13:19:33

And mode SC, out of C.

13:19:41

And do your best to cool the engine.

13:20:29

And that is Verstappen and Antonelli out of the race.

13:20:41

Yeah, that was pretty messy for me. I was in a bad spot in turn three and lost a couple of positions.

13:20:49

Yeah, I was unlucky there.

13:20:57

And that's Hadjar in front of you. At the moment he's also on soft. And then Tsunoda, Ocon, Stroll all on medium.

13:21:09

Then Colapinto, Bearman on soft in P11 and P12.

13:22:10

And Hadjar with near-medium.

13:22:26

And soup de car will be in this lap.

13:22:59

And Norris still in turn 7, building a gap to the safety car.

13:23:05

You can go mode RS.

13:26:26

Let's do brake balance, rearwards, turn 4. Brake balance, rearwards.

13:28:19

And multi-V for position 10. Multi-V for position 10.

13:29:30

And so far tyre management at high speed is good. Try to manage your rear left in turn 3.

13:30:02

And, for info, missing 1.10 to Gabi in turn 7.

13:30:09

Copy. I don't know, balance is a bit... a bit of a mixed bag, I'm not sure with the flap. Yeah, copy.

13:30:20

Turn 6 is definitely a bit of understeer also.

13:30:24

Turbine as well.

13:31:52

We are still on plan A, Nico. Still plan A.

13:32:21

Yeah, there's just too much traffic. I'm not going anywhere.

13:32:26

Yeah, copy that, Nico. Hang in there.

13:32:52

Maybe add two clicks for the video.

13:35:03

Cars in front are Gasly and Bearman. They are fighting.

13:35:23

I have no grip under braking.

13:35:26

Yeah, I don't think we need to overpush. We're still looking at 25 laps on this set.

13:35:41

Colapinto in the pitlane.

13:36:58

You're doing a good job with tyres so far, Nico. It's management in the last two corners and low speed traction.

13:37:28

Two cars in front, Gasly and then Bearman, are both on hard and Colapinto behind on medium.

13:37:42

Still feeling quite a lot of understeer in the car. Can you look at the tools please? Yeah.

13:42:12

I was 37 looking for the gummy.

13:42:51

Turn 7 looks good to us. Nico, it's not really a fair compare to Gabi, his tyres are 13 laps older than us.

13:43:05

And we are faster in turn 7 than Colapinto behind on the same tyres.

13:44:02

It looks like Bearman and Pretz are struggling on these hearts.

13:47:36

Car behind now is Gabi. After he gets DRS, we will swap cars. He's 1.5 behind him.

13:49:44

Do you have a preferred corner for the driver swap, Nico?

13:50:11

Let's swap cars and turn free, Nico. There's a two and a half second gap to Bearman behind Gabi.

13:51:22

And we still would like a driver swap here, Nico.

13:52:23

And Gabi has a full battery. Yep. Yeah, now at the turn three. Hello, go.

13:53:49

And everybody has stopped except for Lawson and Alonso. We think they are one stop.

13:54:02

And we are currently P9 on the road.

13:54:56

So, as I think you've noticed, the heart doesn't look like a very good compound, and we are still on plan A.

13:55:56

I think we have margin to push more in turn six and seven.

13:57:06

And your safety car window is open.

13:58:19

Could have been a bit of gravel. Colapinto went off at turn 4. No, it's a relap.

13:58:29

Strange you have the spot that is every lap the same. Yeah, understood. We do see some tailwinds there.

13:59:15

Aero balance for the next set. What do you think?

13:59:42

Yeah, we think the lighter car will help this oversteery balance, but we do think this is the limit on flap already.

14:00:51

And we might need to avoid specials. Let's not get up the cut here. It will be way easier.

14:02:22

Tyres are going up a bit now. We've got a problem.

14:03:00

In front of him. Yeah, he's on the hard compound, 16 laps old.

14:03:12

How old are my tyres? 24, so your tyres are seven laps older.

14:05:24

It's a bit of a plan A, but that's life.

14:05:51

I'm not sure about minus.

14:06:34

Yeah, we are happy to keep the front wing and do the rest with the switches.

14:07:44

And for Enzo and Nico, we have the two McLarens very close to our pit window now.

14:07:57

You always talk a little bit into the braking. It's a bit tricky for me.

14:10:37

And that's Norris, the race leader, in front of you. His pace was actually similar to us on the last stint.

14:10:50

Copy. Let me know what you want me to do, tyre-wise.

14:11:01

Kind of hitting it, Norris. What's going on with him?

14:11:06

He's only stopped once. We expect he will pit again.

14:11:13

But we're not a threat now. Obviously from anyone behind, right? Later, but not immediate now.

14:11:37

Well, people behind me... So that first car is Piastri, he's in P2, and then behind him is Stroll.

14:11:49

So, Stroll, we're obviously racing, though. We are racing. He's on 17-lap-old hard.

14:14:11

Well, he's not really one second on my display. What do you want me to do? Yeah, it's solid loose. We should let him by.

14:14:47

A bit of an overview. Race in full. That would be nice. What are we racing for? What position?

14:16:32

Prefer not right now. Anyway, I've been behind the McLaren. Understood.

14:17:34

I think a rear step is a big no. Come back a bit later.

14:18:30

And Gaby's in the pitlane now. He will come out in front of us.

14:19:53

And we still don't have any threats from behind in the car.

14:20:29

Fuck, too quick.

14:21:33

Car behind now is 0.3 and a half seconds.

14:21:40

You still think special two, but there are three and four.

14:22:27

Gabi's going on throttle earlier in turn seven. Seems to be working.

14:23:26

2.7 behind on four lap old, sorry, two lap old part.

14:24:44

And Hadjar is lapping 11.4. I think we can get him.

14:25:43

We are happy to push more on tyres in high speed. Gabi's still doing earlier throttle.

14:28:03

Alonso lap time 10.1. He's 11 seconds in front.

14:30:35

And B-MEC 05, B-MEC 05.

14:32:41

The car behind now is Norris, the race leader. Three seconds. Piastri 1.5 behind him.

14:34:21

State six and blue flag to Norris behind. Piastri is two seconds behind.

14:34:51

Luke Lex to Piastri. Ocon is 2.7 behind him.

14:35:34

Ocon 2.7 behind and five laps to go at the end of this one.

14:35:44

Yep, I see it all. We have a bit of uphill now.

14:38:48

Just entry plus one and brake balance rearwards.

14:40:55

And last lap.

14:42:07

Oh yeah, boy! B9. B9. Yes, yes! What a drive, dude. Double points, baby, double points! Let's go, Sabre!

14:42:20

And mode ends. Mode ends and a slow in.

14:42:28

And Gabi had a nice fight with Alonso there, but in the end he finished in front of you, P8.

14:42:37

Very happy. Good happy end. Good recovery from yesterday. Good job. Thank you, team.

14:43:52

There you go, it's Jonathan. It's great to see that look in your eye on the grid again today. Fantastic job, well done.

14:44:02

Thanks, Jonathan. I actually faked that look, but it's good to know it's working on you.
