There will be a couple of cars on the left trying to do starts.

Cross the first right line to pass the cars turning start. First car pushing. Hulkenberg last corner now.

Okay, Piastri opening, fall back. Gap ahead to Ocon at 2. Eight second gap between Piastri and Lawson.

Gap to a hundred and five.

Lawson in four, Franco in eleven.

Getting lost a bit here, Franco 8.

I have to walk on at 5.

Franco, 5, exit 9, I'll be go out.

Franco still four, Gasly ten, sorry, Franco four, Gasly in ten.

Franco still four-back.

Still three back. Stop behind Alonso.

Weaving with no DRS, Franco in 2, Gasly in 6.

Weaving again. We've got Bracco with you. We've got Bracco with you. Copy. Gasly in 3.

There it goes. He went near that kerb behind me.

Macquarnt 3 ahead. Macquarnt 3 ahead, opening. Go push.

There you go, George, one second behind opening now. It'll be plus ten. We are so in a weird position on track here.

Hamilton in three, pushing in Hamilton in two.

Hulkenberg pushing in for three as well, so it's plus ten on the dash. Maintain the front, drop the rear where we can.

Just to bleed some time in 9, got three bunched up in cool-ups ahead of you, and then again at 13. Next car pushing past you in 7.

Gastriane 3, don't quiet behind.

Piastri with you, you can set mode 2 in the background.

There's four cars ahead bunched up. Some feedback, please.

At the moment, purely just braking. Focus on braking points. A few less laps than you thought at the minute, but mainly braking.

Adjust third gear at turn 8.

So behind you, in sync, Leclerc and Lawson there, two seconds back. Norris pushing B17 behind.

It's DRS. Three cars ahead to open.

Two cars ahead to open. Norris still nine back.

Mode's in. Norris still five back. Gap ahead is four and a half is good. Gap at five. Go push.

Okay, go plus 20. Nice feel, Leclerc.

They're just... it's fine. There's traffic here. It's a mess. Yeah, I'll try and help you out. It's plus 20 compared to Carlos' second push lap. You're within a tenth up to turn 7. And it's exit 9, exit 11. That main focus is to work on.

I feel like my rears are gone already by that point. That is just really poor traction. I think a double will help.

The front feels incredibly stiff in the low speed. It's like I touch kerbs and I'm bouncing around everywhere.

It's just one gear higher for 10 and 11. Leclerc with you in three, then quiet.

I can try and go again, but I don't know, I just need to avoid corners.

Lawson ahead will be double, but the two Aces will potentially go again next lap, so I'll aim to open.

Well, Franco pushing in 9 and potentially the two has to open their exit 17.

Closing up, clear behind. Aim for a double at plus ten. Double at plus ten.

Definitely double. Yeah, double at plus ten.

So, within a tenth of a second... I need that feedback. I need that feedback. It's clearly a double.

Tsunoda with you. So turn 5 and turn 10, so just a later brake. And the main time loss is between 10 and 13.

Yeah, I feel very, very limited on exits.

Mate here in sync with Antonelli just behind. George has gone off at 16, taking the front way off. Double yellow at 16. He is moving.

Maybe some debris around 16.

Track is clear at 16 now. A single yellow now.

I'll use DRS now. I drop the rear. Ah, nice red. So no overtaking.

It should be VSC and they should just... Yeah, I think so, yeah.

Give yourself some margin and a decent stop on the brakes somewhere. No overtaking. Gap ahead at 2. February at 16.

Tsunoda, 4 ahead, still plus 8 positive, so please don't stop on brakes if entering.

Do you know what I've done?

Okay, so Carlos, I'll give you stuff at the head of you.

Gap to him at five. Outlap should be a little bit quicker. Gap at seven. Eight.

DRS into turn 7.

10 ahead, 9 behind.

Switched it out. Gap ahead at 9.

So it'll be weaving, no DRS. Weaving, no DRS. Gap ahead at seven.

It's clear for Carlos to open. You are 7 behind Tim. Still some cars leaving the pitlane.

Okay, cap ahead at 7. Go push it.

Okay, you've got Piastri pushing three back now, he's opening. Go switch to in. In normal in lap, but keep the brake temps going. Piastri two back pushing.

Currently double yellow at 16.

Someone's lost a rear overhead wall. Pitlane is currently closed. You've got Verstappen pushing in 4. Expect this to go red. Verstappen pushing in 4.

Pit entry is currently closed, so we will stay out. Lawson's clipped the wall and lost a rim and he's in the pit entry.

Okay, it's red flag, set positive on the delta, no overtaking.

Lawson has stopped in the pit entry between 18 and 19. Drive past him on track then turn in after.

There's every exit 17 by the looks of it. Probably bits of rim.

Up to turn 8, that was about half a tenth quicker than the other car. And then it was 9, 10 and 14. 14's an apple. Why is this stuffy like that? It feels so stiff.

Can you tell which axle? Right, come on, two minutes.

It feels like any time I touch the brake pedal, I feel like I'm going to lock up. It's like micro-locking in every single, especially in the small brakes. In the big brakes, it's fine. Just follow the cars. You should go around Lawson on the outside on track and then cut across into the pit entry after.

Temps are good to keep running. 30 seconds to agree.

OK, we'll be around 9.4 tenths in line, which is fine.

Looks like most people are on the soft still. Maybe a Merc on a medium.

Still aiming for eight seconds.

There's a Merc, Antonelli, two cars back on a medium, potentially Konsec.

Thank you, have a good day.

DRS at 7. Gap ahead at 11.

Go, switch to out. Go up ahead at 10.

Pursue 10 to 13.

That's DRS into 14 and then no DRS into 16 with weaving gap ahead at 9, gap behind at 14.

OK, no DRS with weaving. Gap ahead at 9. Carlos clear to open.

Same as before, still a few cars leaving the pitlane. I've had an 8-go push.

Clear behind. Double cool. Double cool plus twenty.

Something's weird.

Hamilton pushing in three, Norris in six, both pushing.

And second, Carlos Norris in 3, pushing.

And also check the view, but I'm back to thrashing the pedals out of the car. Antonelli at 4 pushing.

Match the other car up to turn 10 and then just roll too much speed. Phase 3 at turn 10. I can't brake. I have to drop off.

It's something I need to dig into. It's half a percent rear-wheel drive on brake bias.

OK, I'll go around again. Final corner, can we do some defects here?

Bortoleto is probably going to be pushing his three back and make it a train coming through now. Bortoleto 2, Verstappen.

Verstappen. Verstappen in 3.

Alonso in 3.

I'm striving of making my tyres dirty everywhere.

Yeah, there's a yellow there. Of course, I picked it up.

Fernando Alonso is in sync.

Is DRS into 7? Suggest high speed 7 as well. High speed 7. Last corner.

Did you make progress on these or not? No.

I have to bleed it. Bleed at 13. Decent stops on the brakes with fronts.

Alonso should go next time around. So will Hamilton.

Ben, Ocon, fight back in sec.

Alonso is crawling around three seconds ahead of you. He should be opening.

5, 6, 7. OK, we're good. Go, push.

Tyres went nowhere. Watch Ocon in three. Ocon in three. It's two and a half minutes to the flag. Ocon pushing in two.

Try and drop the rear tent and I'll go again next lap for the last time. Antonelli three back.

Only a brake for turn 8. Hadjar pushing in 4, then a 15 second gap behind us.

Too many dropping rear end. That was Stroll pushing in 12.

Hadjar should be slow next time around. Captain Antonelli at 13. Another second or two.

No threat from behind. Still six back. And go, push.

Right, stay out, take the flag and then we're going to do the grid start.

Verstappen pushing in three to four. I'll take the flag now. Verstappen three back.

Tyre switch to medium and go mode 7.

Switch change as well is blue 6 position 4. Blue 6 position 4.

Rear target plus three to five.

Carlos is four back. I think, so just watch him.

He's pushing, so just watch your mirrors. He's going to get stuck behind Bearman, I suspect. Yeah, but it's... Yep.

All in sync. Carlos, right behind you. All good. I'll follow you. And green 10, position 10. Green 10, position 10 for the start.

The third in line. Please choose a side.

Two burnouts with no BPM.

I'm guessing you can't make progress, eh? Otherwise it would be clear running into pit and chink. Practice pit and chink.

That's a boxed and slapped livestock engine off.
