You have 15 minutes until the start of the session.

OK, one minute 30 to go. We'll fire up in approximately 30 seconds. I'll let you know when to.

MGEK, start one minute ago.

Twenty-five seconds.

Pull the throttle down to turn 5.

Okay, so steady on traction around turn nine.

Can't manage through turn 11.

Steady on traction, 12 to 14.

Full throttle to 18.

OK mate, I'll recharge off and that's good to go. Sticking with the primary plan.

Yeah, do you need a flap adjust? Yeah. Do you want to click that, please? Understood.

P2, please. We're at P2.

Cleared to select the 1 and 2.

So currently P2 in sector 1 and P7 in sector 2. Just a touch behind Franco, he was on a new medium there.

OK, mate, so you should be clear pit exit. Little box in behind.

Okay, so we've got Antonelli just coming round turn one. Just watch him, please. Make a gap to Fernando. We've got Russell going into turn one, starting a tight. Watch for Russell coming past now. Then you're good.

OK, so standard outlap from here, please. Full throttle down to 5 once again.

Okay, so steady on traction in sector 2.

Yeah, mate, we're good on time here. Steady on traction.

So, cars behind, we've got Bortoleto on a time lap about 12 seconds back.

Full bandage at turn 11.

Bortoleto 9 behind timed lap. Behind him is a 10 second gap to Verstappen who's pushing as well.

Bortoleto, five behind steady on traction, please.

Next car pushing, Verstappen, Pate, Bellart.

Down to 18.

Verstappen, four and a half, timed lap. Clear behind him, big gap.

Verstappen, 3-0.

Two seconds. Gap behind him about seven to the next cobbler.

Recharging. Good to go.

10-0 to 5 behind us.

OK, recharge on and fast in lap, please, and box, fast in lap, and box, clear of traffic behind P9 at the moment, fastest lap 41.6 for Leclerc.

In terms of sectors, currently purple sector 3.

Cars behind all on slow laps now. Again, keep our pace up on way in. Main types again, sector 2.

Sextant's fastest lap.

What do you think about balance and flap? It's all good. Leave it there. Copy.

Just four times a bit on the outside, please. Compared to the wheels. Copy that.

OK, so Hulkenberg, Handler, Leclerc and Ocon behind all on in-laps. I'm happy to keep our pace up because it buys a bit more time.

Can we go SOC 5, please, Pierre? SOC 5.

If we could pick up the pace slightly, that would be helpful. Say again? If we could pick up the pace slightly, that would be helpful.

And they just want to help us out later on, so we're boxing now. Watching for the way bridge on the way in, please.

No traffic behind me.

Stopping outside the front of the garage.

OK, so we're a little bit queuing. We're going to be towards the back of this group, so a bit more track even on our side.

So, cars out there at the moment. Verstappen, the lead car of this second group, he's at turn 40.

We have three minutes 25 to the chequered flag. Standard outlap should be fine for time.

Okay, so I happen to make the gap three minutes ten for a minute.

Three minutes. Okay, so we've got Verstappen going into the last corner now. He'll be starting a lap. Few cars could come past us this time. All proper down to five.

So the car's pushing. We've got Verstappen eight and a half behind, then Antonelli and then Russell. They're spaced about six seconds apart.

Verstappen at 7.

Steady on traction. Verstappen, 6.

Behind him, Antonelli, six and a half.

Antonelli, four seconds time to manage 10 and 11.

Antonelli, 2. Gap behind him, 8 seconds.

OK, Russell 8, timed lap. Steady on traction.

Russell six seconds, behind him a seven second gap. Stroll push.

So four. Full throttle to 18.

One and a half. One second.

Stroll six seconds, timed.

Brake charge off. Good to stroll four seconds.

OK, recharge on. We are safe and through. So, steady end lap, please. Staying just negative, please. Just negative.

Andrew Exling through line P12. How is the balance, please?

Yeah, it's OK. It's that turn 5. Instability on the rain. I'm down in mid the rear. Route 12. 4.13.

How were the rares towards the end of the lap generally? Do you feel they were dropping off?

Slightly. Okay, understood. Okay, mate, so boxing this time. Everyone's taking the chequered flag. Watching for the waybridge on the way. What's the pace for P10? So P10, 41.7 at 7. That's Albon and Russell. 41.7 apiece, so very, very close.

Hamilton has had his time deleted and has been knocked out as a result. So that puts us P11 with that as well. 10th would put us P8.

So, Hamilton, Franco, Antonelli, Alonso and Stroll, that's 16 to 20.

I'm going to miss a boxing now. Just negative on my delta.

In terms of sectors, purple sector 1 fastest there, all time really in sector 2. There's a tenth from sector 3 to the fastest as well.

So, stop in front of the garage at P1.

Stay tight, please. Stay close to the car in front.

So, just watch out for the Sauber, slightly going to try and pull his way in there.

Okay, so we'll be going for a standard outlet once again. Verstappen, the lead car in the group, is around at turn nine at the moment. Probably a similar situation with traffic to last time.

Can't see Bearman on the Z. Bearman four seconds ahead by my numbers. Five, six, seven, eight. We're good, Bearman.

Standard outlap from now. Positioning is good. Verstappen turns 16 a little further back this time.

Steady on traction.

My next route's at 11 once again.

So, first car pushing, Verstappen at turn 7 now.

Gap behind him is only five seconds to Ocon. That's Verstappen pushing, so he comes through. We've got a huge gap there.

Full throttle down to the last corner.

Verstappen about 11 behind.

Verstappen, eight and a half behind. We are good to go here.

Good charge off Verstappen, 7.

I've got a massive headwind in the main straight. Yes, mate. OK, we see why that was. Boxing now, please. In sync. Cars behind. Learn more when you're in the go. Yeah, you know, I don't know what happened. I lost a lot of time in the main straight. Yeah, absolutely. We see the same. We're just working our way through that. OK, mate. Just think about balance. Box now, please. Staying next to the delta.

Happy to be a little bit quicker on this in-lap.

OK, Pierre, so we feel we didn't have the RS down to turn 5. That was the reason for the loss. Did you feel you definitely pressed the button there?

I just flicked up.

Box now, please. What would you like on flap?

Verstappen. Copy. Box, box, box for the white picture, please.

Okay, Pierre, so we don't see a button pressed down...

Okay, mate, so let's focus on the outlap.

Just down to that one.

Yeah, your rear tyre has quite a bit of growth.

Yeah, don't worry, I'll be good.

So, pull the throttle down to five.

Same as before, manage 10 and 11.

So we're on the right side of timings here. The guys at the back are going to struggle to get the lap in. Full throttle to 18.

Made no change of wind from the last run.

And we're good. Pre-charge on. Pre-charge off. Sorry, last lap. Give it your all.

OK, recharge on. Just negative on the delta, please. We're at P9 at the moment.

Ah, where's the rear-end outlap at the end of chicane? Something's going to be knocked. OK, mate. Let's see.

Okay, so everyone behind is taking the flag.

Yeah, no problem. That's it.

Unfortunately we are out. Sorry, mate.

That's our position. So P11 at the moment. I've just got Ocon to complete a lap behind us.

So, at the moment, P11 or P12.

What's the gap? P10, currently Albon, 41.50.

Okay, yeah, and P12, almost, sorry, P11, correction, sorry, P13, improved at the end.

OK, mate. Still autoplay for tomorrow. I know the weather's going to be a bit up and down as well.

So, Boxing, now please stop being outside the front of the garage.

Yeah, it's a shame. I think it was a good lap. Just no turbo. Anyway, so, bring in the straight finally. Didn't make a lot of gains. And, yeah, without the weight.

Rear tyres were caught with hot tyres, sir. Out of the last chicane. No more rear tyres, sir. Yeah, I just didn't quite stack them up over that time. Sorry, mate.
