So, you can build your gap before we leave the pitlane here. So, Leclerc at turn one, opening a lap, and then Hulkenberg behind him. Behind him, it's five, so you've got Hulkenberg on exit, and then four seconds to Hulkenberg on a lap.
14:04:10
Three to Hulk. Two to Hulk. Target is plus five. You've got 16 seconds behind. Kimi is six seconds ahead.
14:04:45
Got Lewis at ten seconds.
14:04:59
Lewis at five seconds on a lap and 16 behind him. Lewis at four.
14:05:11
Lewis at 3.
14:05:15
Now two, clear behind Lewis.
14:05:20
OK, lap times.
14:05:23
So, Piastri on a used soft has just done a 42.0.
14:05:37
And Kimi is six seconds ahead. I think he's going to let Lewis through, so he's going to back up towards you now.
14:05:55
So, a little bit high. Now we'll be strat 2.
14:07:53
Hadjar at five seconds of the opening lap.
14:08:04
Hadjar now. Three. Two seconds. You've got 12 behind Hadjar.
14:08:21
So our main loss is a middle sector 9 tenths to Piastri. Got Alonso at 8 seconds on a lap.
14:08:47
Five seconds on a lap.
14:09:02
Two seconds to a lock, so bank clear.
14:09:45
And box, box.
14:09:50
Stop on your marks and switch off.
14:09:58
And you're on the waybridge.
14:10:36
Tyres felt OK, obviously a bit slow.
14:10:48
Copy, George. I'll have to take more air balance out.
14:10:54
Fair. Copied.
14:12:51
Summit first, yeah.
14:13:14
So, just build your gap off pit exit.
14:13:23
Gap ahead of Kimi is only three seconds at the moment, so keep building your gap.
14:13:33
Piastri just completed a lap. Turn 1 exit.
14:14:00
So, target plus three from here. That gap ahead of Kimi is two and a half seconds.
14:15:08
I'm not sure. He's either going for a second call or he might push this time.
14:15:25
So, Kimi is going now. That'll be Strat 2 next lap.
14:17:18
Gasly at four seconds, opening a lap. Strat 1, box, box.
14:17:29
Gasly now for two seconds.
14:17:38
That next car will be Sainz. He's at 11 seconds.
14:18:09
So now next car is Lewis at 13 seconds.
14:18:20
So, we are safe. And I've got Lewis now, 11 seconds.
14:18:26
We need to have a think. That was wrong. I don't have anything more really in me. Maybe a tenth or so. Lewis at eight.
14:18:41
Disconfigure garage tabs.
14:18:46
If what we're doing is right. F5. Yeah, AFM, we are discussing back here.
14:18:56
Lewis at three. Yeah, I've got Lewis. I wouldn't have comparison with Lewis.
14:19:01
Yeah, we'll bring that up for you to look at. And then you've got Norris at four and a half on a lap.
14:19:16
So, box, box, stop on the marks and switch off.
14:25:47
Slip and skip.
14:26:10
Someone just trundled out. I guess. Cargo.
14:26:25
Track is clear.
14:26:39
So, just build your gap.
14:26:44
Gaps ahead are only, sort of, four, five seconds of the gap.
14:26:55
So, target is plus four here, so don't need to be going quite so fast in sector one.
14:28:31
So six seconds ahead of Tsunoda. Set your B-Mig. It'll be clear in sector 3 here.
14:28:45
And we'll be strapped in.
14:30:43
I want box, box.
14:30:46
I mean, it felt better than a small lock up at turn one, but I think it felt better. Copy that, sir. We'll continue in that direction. Do you agree? Yeah, I think so. It still raised quite a lot. I don't see why we couldn't go a bit farther, to be honest.
14:31:06
But you just let me know if you have visibility of that.
14:31:13
I see we're still like seven times slower.
14:31:23
Is that a new or a used from McLaren? That's new. That's new for Piastri. Yes, seven and a half tenths.
14:32:32
So, box, box, stop on your marks and switch off.
14:35:51
Yeah, we're OK. Off position.
14:36:30
So, as we did before, just build that gap on the pit exit, two three-second gaps to cars ahead. Count me up. I can't see Norris. Norris is still coming around turn one. He's just starting to go now. So Norris has got eight ahead of him. We'll go for similar.
14:36:50
OK, so you've got six. All right. Yeah, OK, copy.
14:36:58
And just a reminder of, as Katsu pointed out, that turn 5 on the outlap.
14:37:06
So target plus six here.
14:38:16
So Norris has got nine seconds ahead of him. He's just got three cars at turn 18.
14:38:24
So set your beatmig. Just two cars at turn 18 now.
14:38:31
OK, we'll be all clear at turn 18 when you get there now.
14:40:44
Clear behind. Box, box.
14:41:06
Strat mode plus one hundred.
14:41:40
So just trying to minimise brake temperature here, George. We're happy where you are in terms of track position.
14:47:07
Select first gear.
14:47:11
And we can struggle down the pitlane here.
14:47:26
So just don't slow cars up behind you.
14:47:31
You've got 40 seconds.
14:48:26
Put a target plus five.
14:50:12
That'll be strat 2.
14:52:09
OK, so strat 1, box, box. Not too sure why I lost so much in the middle.
14:52:24
Would you want any flap adjust? Would that help with the middle?
14:52:31
I'm currently swinging with a B-Bal offset and a bit of oversteer.
14:52:46
Yeah, it's predominantly 10 and 12 in that middle sector.
14:53:17
Can't see the middle one yet. I'll just go to 10 or 12 or 14.
14:53:28
Happy to drop minus 0.1, 0.2. Yeah, copy that, Direct Council agrees on the diff.
14:53:47
Happy to go to the back of the pack.
14:54:01
Box, on your marks and switch off.
14:54:28
Did everyone go slow in that run?
14:54:32
It looks like it's much slower. Some had used tyres, George, but it looks like others complained to Verstappen, he said it was no grip.
14:54:44
So, back right of the motor at U.
14:56:56
So you can build your gap. That car's ahead of me going six seconds.
14:57:17
So target plus five.
14:57:28
Er, we've got 2 minutes 40 left on time.
14:57:58
So Piastri's got six ahead of him and Leclerc seven ahead of him. Well spaced out here for sector three.
14:58:19
Everyone will be safe on time here.
14:58:42
So, Piastri has 11 ahead of him. He'll be clear in sector 3. Got six seconds to Piastri.
15:00:57
Target zero on the dash.
15:01:26
So, yeah, Albon just implicitly at that, so it's P6.
15:01:53
Yeah, a very difficult session, but so strong.
15:02:05
Yeah, no, good job to keep it all together. Put in some solid laps there. Just don't have the car underneath us today.
15:02:56
What was the pole time? DRS was a 40.56.
15:03:19
Go as fast as set to one and three.
