08:32:27
OK, let's work on the brakes in turn 15 and radio check castle section. Copy radio check. It did break up for a second though.
08:32:39
Good braking, turn 50.
08:35:12
OK, Sainz opening a lap with seven behind. Charge on.
08:35:21
Sainz pushing P5 behind.
08:35:26
And tyre 5, 5th gear, out of turn 2. Sainz, 3 behind pushing.
08:35:43
And back to tyre 8. Single cool-down. Next car, Albon 9.
08:36:01
Strat 4. Albon 5.5.
08:36:15
Albon 1.5. Single yellow ahead. Single yellow ahead. Albon 1.5. Pushing. Track is green. I'm sure if he aborted, keep an eye on your mirror.
08:36:38
Russell, nine behind. Pushing is the next car.
08:36:45
Back on the brakes in 15. There is three cars, two cars opening a lap. I'm not sure what Albon will do. Let's have a bit of margin to him.
08:36:55
Yeah, I think he will. Perfect. Let's give it four seconds. Russell, push four behind. Russell, three.
08:39:27
Go for a slow single and I'll let you know if we need double.
08:39:33
First car will be Leclerc, seven behind.
08:39:40
Turn 2. Leclerc 4.5. A lot of fricks. Copy. Leclerc 3.
08:39:50
Do you need a flap adjust? No, I don't think so. I'd rather have it for now, honestly, and just, I think, let the track have a bit of... OK, we're looking at turn 2. We are locking on the bumps. It looks like it's the bumps. I'll let you know if we see something on lines or approach entry to mid.
08:40:08
Entry to mid. For now, single cool-down. First car pushing. Sainz, 5.
09:08:07
It's still one minute to pitlane open. We'll need some weaving after three.
09:09:18
Okay, pitlane is open.
09:09:36
Target four seconds to Bortoleto. Two, three, four.
09:09:56
Let's get some good weaving.
09:10:07
If he is low on his outlap, I'm happy to overtake him.
09:10:12
Yeah, copy. He went wide, so he lost that gap. Copy.
09:10:37
We can fork more on the front tyre where you can and good brake in turn 15.
09:11:08
So good braking. Sixteen. Gap to Bortoleto. Three. Same for four.
09:13:14
We're clear behind. When we close the lap, charge on, keep pushing and after turn 2 we'll do the tyre 7.
09:13:28
Let's keep pushing. Charge on. Out of turn two. Tyre seven. Seven gear.
09:13:59
OK. Copy. We'll do again. Balance is a bit better on this lap. Copy. OK.
09:14:06
We'll do again tyre 7 out of the turn 80 on the way into the pits.
09:14:34
We're thinking about push-toggle turn 4 for next lap, for next round. Let's keep thinking about it when we are in the garage.
09:14:43
Yeah, copy. I still have a lot of front, but honestly, this was more balanced. And I'm wondering if it's more like we do. It's going to obviously save loads.
09:14:55
The bump at turn 2 is quite aggressive though. Copy. Okay, tyres 7, 7th gear and we box.
09:15:26
Back to tyre 8 in the pitlane.
09:17:41
What was that noise? Just the clutch slipping. Sainz pushing in turn one. Next car pushing. Hamilton. Three behind. Hamilton two behind pushing. And we're clear. Clear on exit.
09:18:27
Alonso is probably on an in-lap. Russell behind now is on an out-lap. Still clear behind.
09:18:37
Hamilton, I had aborted in my push next lap. He's crashed. There's debris. It's a... Of course, there's debris. It's turn... Yep. Seven. Copy. Let's be ready.
09:18:56
For now, it's all green.
09:19:19
Try to open the lap.
09:21:08
What the... Oh my God, man, what was that?
09:21:14
Russell pushing 2.5 behind. Russell 2 behind, just behind you. Yeah, I don't know. Sainz stuff. It's OK. Charge on. Ocon, next car pushing 4.5. Ocon 4. Ocon 3. Cool.
09:21:32
Next car is Albon. That was just about such a big crash.
09:22:00
If you need to, still push double available at P4.
09:22:06
Other than that, until the castle was built up. So we aim to do the same. Let's cool down these tyres.
09:22:41
So the one thing we can see is turn 7 braking point. Looks like we could move it slightly forward. I'll leave it to you. We have been doing it, obviously. And it's also slippery around there. 6-7.
09:22:59
For now, you're clear behind. There are quite four or five cars opening a lap ahead of us.
09:23:11
It's time for two more pushes. This, then pull down and one more push.
09:26:18
OK, charge up. We should be clear behind. Good luck. I'm not sure if Norris will be able to shift. Keep an eye on your mirrors.
09:26:26
He's on a cool-down. Yeah, Norris is pushing. Sorry, he's pushing. Good job. Next car, Hamilton 4.
09:26:36
Anyone single? Three. Two.
09:26:40
2. Just behind. Single cool-down confirmed. We have time to go for a single cool-down. Slow single cool-down. It's 3 minutes 20 to the end of the session. Clear behind.
09:27:19
Still see turn 4 some rear limitation, so if you need, there is push toggle available there. Albon aborted.
09:27:27
You can be even slower. OK, I'll do it this lap. Copy.
09:30:15
Happy to push the last two corners if you need to.
09:30:42
Once you go through the line, that will be the checkered. Happy to try it one more time, turn 1. It was better last time. It was very good.
09:31:22
The yellow, it was a good lap.
09:31:32
There's some different balances with the lap, the chase, what we were talking, but otherwise, yeah, reasonably happy, I would say. Copy.
09:31:50
Science behind. I'm not sure, but I might be still pushing. Keep an eye on your mirrors.
