Radio check. Still 20 seconds. 2-pit lane open. Copy.

I give you the gap to Hamilton. Two. Three.

Four. Five.

We sink the gears.

Fail 1. Fail. Gap to Hamilton. 3.5.

And fail 2-0.

OK, we're good. Just missing a gear. We will sync it on the main straight. Gap to Hamilton, four seconds.

Five, that's eight, four, seven.

Seven. Charge off.

Charge on. Verstappen, first car pushing eight seconds behind.

Single cool-down. Verstappen, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.

Next car is Yuki, ten seconds behind.

While possible, some full throttle for battery will help.

Another four seconds pushing. Three, two, one.

Next car, Stroll.

Stroll six, Gasly nine.

Stroll aborted. Gasly, first car pushing, 7 behind.

OK, you're in sync with the cars around. Let's work on the brakes. Turn 12.

Stop. Turn one, you're struggling a bit over here. Ah, it's just the tyres.

Charge on. Clear behind.

Yeah, rear is more struggling on that lap. Understood. We confirm double cooldown from where we are. Do you need a flap adjust?

Yeah, I think plus three clicks. Copy. We're boxing for a flap adjust.

First car pushing, Tsunoda, 10 behind.

First car pushing, Zdrugovic 12th behind.

Ljubović aborted, you're clear behind. Box for a flap adjust.

There is Verstappen closing a lap, opening a lap on the line. Sorry, now in turn 1.

We could think about full-toggle turn 2 for understeer.

It looks like he can push the braking point a bit more.

Sainz in front will open a lap. Gap to him, one second.

For the car in front, Albon behind will open a lap as well. Let's keep him there. Gap to Sainz, 2.5. Clear behind. Sainz.

Good lap. Clear behind. Double cooldown.

Lap is all good. The only main loss is turn 89 minimum. The rest is good.

Okay, gear used was after initial cadence. I'll keep an eye. Okay. Yep, Tsunoda 7 behind pushing. Go ahead with your message. Keep an eye on the mirrors. Just gear used. Copy. Yuki 4 behind pushing. 3, 2, 1.

Isack, first car pushing. Four behind. Three.

Bortoleto pushing 5 behind.

OK, first car pushing, Drukovic, three behind.

2, just behind you. Next car is Verstappen, 7.

Verstappen, four, three, just behind you. Next car, Norris, six.

Next car is Hamilton 8. Isack found some lap time in turn 2 minimum speed.

Minimum speed. I'll let you know if there is anything that stands out. Hamilton aborted. You're clear behind.

Bortoleto ahead, just closed a lap, so he's probably going for a double cooldown, but I don't know.

I'll give it a gap to Bortoleto. I'm not sure what he's doing.

I'm way too close to Sainz. These guys are decking around, so I'm going to have to back off. OK, you're clear behind. Clear behind. Just wait for my gaps next time. I hear you next car pushing. Hamilton 5.5.

Next car, Ocon 7 and Albon 11.

Next car, Albon, 4.5 behind.

OK, next car is Stroll, 10. These cars around you might open a lap. I'm fine to open a gap to them now.

And Stroll five behind pushing. Let's work on the brakes in turn 12.

Steer behind. Yeah, turn 2 understeer is normal. We need to work out a tool there. We'll have a look. Let's box for a flap adjust.

So there is Hamilton pushing 5 behind and then we're clear. Hamilton 4.

Third gear, and now I think we went up to fourth there, so let's try to stay in third.

Yeah, I'll try with this lap. I've also opened EB a little bit as well.

All right, that was a very good lap. Clear behind. I'm happy to box with this and focus on the next.

I mean, if we have time, I wouldn't mind one more, but we can get on with the program as well.

Copy, yeah, let's get on with the program, otherwise we will eat into our high fuel.

OK, we are boxing. Out of turn 11, it will be tyre 5, fifth gear, 200.

End targets on the dash. 0-0.

Tyre 6, third gear.

Clear on exit. Gap to Russell ahead 5 seconds. 6. 6.5. We use DRS down to turn 2.

First car pushing. No, clear behind.

Back to tyre 8. Keep an eye on the maximum time. Clear behind.

Antonelli behind, Kupi, Ona in lap. First car pushing is Bortoleto, ten behind. Let's try to stay close to zero on the death.

Antonelli might be on an in-lap. He just closed the lap. Bearman behind you on an out-lap. First car pushing. Bortoleto 3.5 behind. Bortoleto 3.

Just behind. And we have Sainz in front. Sainz in front. Two seconds. Sainz, wait for Michael. Sainz, four, five, six. Charge off.

Single, you're good.

Clear behind. Sorry for that, turn 1, there was a yellow and then it disappeared right before you passed. I know, I saw it mate, it's alright. Alright, decent lap, still some understeer in turn 2.

Yeah, but on exit it was a bit relative. OK, interesting. We're doing double cool-down from here. Don't worry about the time. And we go through the pitlane to maximise cool-down. First car pushing is Sainz 7, Colapinto 10. Sainz 5, 4, 3, 2. Behind.

Next car, Colapinto. Four. Three. Two. Behind.

Clear behind for now.

We see turn 2. We are a bit more aggressive on throttle. Could be the reason of the snap. But do you think it could come from understeer, that snap? Or just rear limited? And Bearman, 8 seconds for his car. Rear limited, being aggressive. I mean, the tyres weren't ready. I had so much traffic as well. Copy. Bearman, 4 behind, pushing 2.

2. Just behind. And Leclerc behind you is on an outlap. We box through the pitlane. Do you need a flap adjust? Antonelli, next car pushing 4, through the pitlane, through the pitlane. Antonelli 3.

We go as low as low as possible to maximise cooldown.

Gap to Norris. Two ahead. Three.

Four. Five. Bortoleto pushing in turn one.

R6 ahead. First car pushing is Hamilton. Three behind. Hamilton just behind you pushing.

OK, so next car will be Isaac 10 and then we have a Gabou.

Isack, six behind pushing.

As compared to Sainz, turn one and turn four are the only losses, small stuff.

Okay, Norris ahead will open a lap, gap to Norris two seconds, clear behind. Let's work on brakes.

Oh, my God. How can they go so slow and even stop the car at turn one? That's the maximum time rule in free practice. You're clear behind. I'll give it a gap to Norris. Two.

So, Bearman is going now. Bortoleto ahead of Norris and Norris 2.5 ahead of him. Clear behind.

OK, charge on and we box.

First car pushing 9, Bearman.

Mode 3. I'll give you traffic on exit. Sainz just going now.

OK, clear and exit.

We can drop a couple of seconds back from Yuki. He might be on high fuel.

Clear behind. Mode 6. Yuki, 3, 4, let's go.

Let's focus on management. Turn 3, turn 11.

Think about full toggle turn 2.

Third toggle for turn one will help.

OK, that's the checkered charge on. We cool the tyre. Watch out for Ocon. Three seconds behind, he might keep pushing.

Mode 12. Keep an eye on the mirrors. It seems he's slowed down.

We try to pull the rears as much as possible and we go to the grid for a start. Previous start you were on target, on clutch, pedal was OK. We can just try a quicker release.

Multi B3, position 10 in the background.

Charge off and some full throttle out of turn 11 for cooling.

The start will be on the left, left hand side.

There will be one burnout. Left-hand side, same procedure. Target baseline minus three, same target. Aim for faster release.

Copy that. Remind me for the knots. One. Copy.

And we'll try to push turn one and two.

Charge on, cool down. There could be a VSC, as we discussed, for the VSC test. If there is, we need to respect it. We're coming in for practice pitstop.

Let's cool the car, cool the brakes.

Stay positive. Close to zero. It's a good exercise to stay close to zero.

And at the pitstop, we'll do a static pitstop and the guys will push you forward to make space for the other car.

Double yellow, turn 13.

14. Double yellow. And box.

William, we'll give you a second to the guys to finish.
