OK, Kimi, so as you can imagine, we're in sync with cars around us. First car will be Hulkenberg, but he's over 30 seconds away.

So, you've got nine seconds ahead.

Ten ahead to Bearman and he's got two ahead of him to Alonso. He may drop back into you in just a few seconds.

Gap at six now. That gap should be good.

Gap at 6.5. Good to go.

Yellow, yellow, downturn 15. Yellow, yellow, turn 15.

You should know the car behind at four seconds, that yellow flare just when you hit it.

Tsunoda car behind at three seconds.

We're going to have Hadjar at seven seconds.

Hadjar completing a lap.

That's Hadjar far behind. He's completing a lap.

Another yellow down at turn seven.

How was the lap? The GPS to Piastri was a little poor. I'll see if that's cleared up. But it was three tenths off Piastri in sector one.

Sir, happy to go for a double call. Let us know if you're going to need us up just.

You should be in sync with cars around you.

So, turns 1 and 2 looking reasonably strong. That's just the tenth loss to Verstappen. More of a loss in 3-4 and then castle section.

I'll march in the castle.

I can try the push if you want. Depends if you're happy with where the tyres are at the moment.

We still need to drop about six degrees, but I'll leave it up to you.

I'll give it a try. OK, copy. It'll be Hulkenberg coming through at six seconds. He's going to be completing a lap. Hulkenberg at five.

Yellow, yellow, yellow, yellow.

Ah, man, what the fuck?

Yeah, copy, Kimi, it's a little bit annoying.

Tsunoda car behind, he may not have got that yellow.

OK, so we'll take another call and then we'll go for a push again.

We have Hadjar coming through. We have five seconds.

Hadjar at two and a half on the lap. Behind him, Albon, five seconds.

Albon at three and a half. They're going slow through the wiggle.

Albon, I'll be behind at one second.

Fernando Verstappen, he's 10 seconds away.

A little depression, not a call.

So that was a good sector one. It was just a half a tenth of what George achieved.

Quereza, still remain lost in circle one.

Braking, braking, turn three. Braking, turn three. Keeping an eye on Stroll behind that. He's now on a slow lap. So next car will be Hulkenberg. He's 12 seconds away there.

Hulkenberg now, three seconds, he'll be on a lap.

Now, no pressure. Next car, Bortoleto, 20 seconds away.

Two and a half ahead. Now one and a half for Tsunoda.

Stroll again has popped up as it's going quickly. Not sure that's the case. Just keep your eye on your mirrors. It's good to go.

I think Tsunoda will be on a slow, but try to keep an eye on your mirrors. Currently P10, it's one second to Leclerc, who's P1. In terms of sectors, four tenths of sector one, four and a half in the middle, and half in the final.

To George, it's 1.10 in the castle and 1.10 braking turn 15.

There's no pressure behind on the out lap, so he may push through.

So, no pressure behind him.

The box is clear, so you can practice pit entry and practice pit stop.

And that was 20 long slightly over to the left.

Now we'll go straight up.

I think Colapinto is now through. And circuit is all clear.

Counting five seconds ahead, Tsunoda.

That gap's looking pretty good ahead now.

Speed target plus four. And no pressure behind. Norris is still 30 seconds away, so he can't leave the pits with you.

Braking check. Landed safe. All good.

OK, so we have Verstappen after his lap. Verstappen far ahead.

Where's next? Next car, we stroll seven seconds. We've got Gasly behind him. Let's stroll next to Gasly.

Piastri behind you. Four and a half seconds.

He actually has four seconds. He may have a Porsche. Yeah, he probably has. Oh, we got Alonso next car. Alonso, seven seconds.

It was just too late, no? Aper, LOTSO two set shifters.

We don't see any more vibration.

No, it was a small lock-up. Yes, no problem.

Next car will be Leclerc, 10 seconds.

We've got Norris. He's managed to clip the wall, but he's making his way back into the pitlane. I think he should be OK.

I've got a group of four cars ahead, so there will be a bit of bunching. Lawson seven behind.

Four. And three. Two.

Now, no pressure.

Kimi will go for a double cool.

No pressure behind.

Keep an eye on Verstappen at three seconds. He's showing us fast. I think he's on slow. Beat Alonso, I think, next car. He's ten seconds away.

It's P8, it's one second to Leclerc, P1. Alonso, four seconds.

George has just put in a 41.7, 41.7 for George. Main loss to him, braking turns 1-3-15, 1-3-15 braking. That's losses to George.

Let us know if you want a flap adjust. We'll be waiting for you.

One more. OK, copy.

Next car will be Stroll at eight seconds.

Stroll at four. Stroll at three. Add two.

Straight through the pitlane, 4-5-plus-1.

OK, we'll go straight out.

You've got Tsunoda with you now. He has just completed a lap.

And then Hadjar at two and a half seconds. Hadjar car behind.

No pressure behind.

Are we all in sync?

Hey Fermi, it's sick with cars around you.

So I've had that yellow behind you, just where Bortoleto stopped, I guess you saw him.

So he's got moving again. That yellow has cleared.

I'm happy with the temps for now.

So, currently P4. Four tenths to Leclerc P1.

And we have Leclerc at seven seconds.

Leclerc at 6.

That was better, no? Yes, that was a lot better. Leclerc at one and a half. Now all clear.

In terms of deltas, Leclerc, so in sectors 1 it is three tenths, it's one and a half in the middle sector, zero in the final.

Air practice. Air practice. Stop for park. Switch it off.

That's good on the box.

We'll have a stop at the pitlane.

Ending up traffic with Bortoleto, so Bortoleto car behind, and let's go besides 10 seconds.

B-Bal plus two. B-Bal plus two.

And I have to go straight, so...

B-Bal offset plus one hundred.

Thank you. We've got Piastri, lap one. It was a 45.8 sub time.

That was with DRS, though.

Verstappen, Lewis, at 46.8, 46.8.

You'll get three more laps. Three more laps.

Griffin, three more laps.

We can go strat mode 6. Strat mode 6. And you'll get three more laps, including this one.

Give me early overtake press, early overtake press. This is pit run finality.

I think I'm leaving a bit of the castle upwards.

And focus on exit 15 and 16. OK, copy. Take no risks.

You'll get one more lap. That'll be the flag.

A bit gimmicky, so we'll do formation lap practice, just the tyres cool at the start.

How was the pace?

A little bit difficult to compare on this tyre, but it was close to Piastri.

Yeah, it's a very small sample, though.

Go to 55 BW3, 55 BW3.

And the race start at the beginning of this run, exit pitlane, was shallow 3%. Just for information, shallow 3%.

And this is going to be right-hand side, right-hand side, two burnouts.

Safety car, safety car. Obey the delta.

I can't feel it's on target.

So you've got no traffic behind, so you've got a bit of time. Gap for 20 seconds to George, another 10 will mean we can do the stop.

That's not a PSC.

Just continue obeying the delta.

And now showing red flag. Again, obeying the delta.

Kimi, if you'd be able to shove a bit more delta, and then you'd be out of practice pit entry. How much more do you need?

Just giving yourself enough time to, enough room to be able to accelerate to a reasonable speed so you can get the braking.

So I'll give it another five seconds, another five.

George has dropped back as well.

I have understeer at the top.
