Radio check.

Yep, roll out and clear. Can you hand me a kick? Yes. Copy. Track temp 28 should stay relatively stable in the cloud cover.

So, next confirm everyone. Plan A. Confirm there are five cars on hard. First of which is Alonso P11. Both Aston's. Alonso P11, Stroll P14. Both Red Bulls, 17 and 19 and Ocon as well.

And then around you, Hulkenberg medium, Hamilton soft.

Three cars ahead of Hulkenberg, also soft.

Carny double unit at 10-4. That's all for the runway. Secure the windows guys.

Two red A's and one push out available.

Safety car. Focus on tyre rubbing.

Moose, safety car on the switch. Positive on the delta. Emphasis on tyres.

Double yellow at turn 10. Do not expect a double delta.

Same as yesterday. Exit 12, just stay off the full throttle. Also no full load for exit 12, just to help battery. Let's be careful of debris around turn 10.

OK, so car ahead of you. Lots of them on the hard tyre. Car ahead of Pierre Gasly's soft tyre.

This safety car will take the shortcut through turn 10 to avoid the debris, so follow the cars ahead of you. Follow the safety car.

Keep it clean. Hold the car directly ahead. Avoid any dippery.

Say, very push to catch the back of the six gallons at 10-3.

Right tyre is the lowest one at the moment.

There's a bit of conflict here going on here, but at least there's stops on the brakes where we can.

Bear this down, Ralph. I will stay half-track.

Safety car is in this lap. Recently braked by a safety car in this lap. It's already pulling away. Approaching turn 12 now.

I see one line in the pitlane now.

Projected VSC and a double yellow at entry turn 4. VSC positive on the delta. Full safety car. Stay out.

Nice to get down through when we can.

Multiple safety aviations and safety cars. There's more scope for plan C.

Yes, self-purpose.

Current cloud fly runners are the two Astons and Hamilton in the pit with runway information. I can put you on pace with that. I'll be back on balance with you when you can.

What's the tech with the safety switch?

I'll stay like this out and Lawson is starting to slow things up, so I hope we can make progress on him in the next few laps. We'll manage that.

Stronger in 8.9 compared to Gasly. A little bit slower in 3.67. That's intentional to help 9.5 if you need any assistance with 6.7.

The tyre management is good for us currently.

The next lap I'll show you the compound deltas, if that's to your favour.

Repeat for me again when I'm a bit more persistent on the straights.

Earlier diff opening at number 4, it would be green for position 6.

The hard tyre has a smaller offset than we expected, but still has dagger for a smaller offset.

That's about six tenths of a lap quicker. He's one full lap behind us. Seven lap nearer of mediums. That one's about efficiency.

Plan A and considering plan C, considering plan C.

OK, should be a bit more feedback then. Can you start a bit more on this one? Yes.

It's definitely not 13. Definitely not 13.

And this is some kind of...

Apparently people are struggling to overtake on plan A, trying to extend plan A.

I'm starting to see a drop on the tyre. I'm happy to lean more on the tyre for the temperature.

Plus one for compound, plus one for techie road. All half, up to you. Copy, copy.

Ideally another six laps. Now within DRS range. Hold full throttle.

What do you think? What do you think we try to get to plan C now? My next plan C is to try and make this tyre last.

At this stage of the race, plan A will be less performant. Off the points of track at a 1.4 lap.

It's a very pretty P5 like we use now.

Left button, we need green. Have we taken it? Yeah, I think. It's fine, it's fine.

Mode change, mode 11. Antonelli just behind. Antonelli 0.3, efficiency within the gauntlet. Hulkenberg 0.8.

Use a point eight of mode 11 for a little bit of Hawaii Sky Alpha help. Mode 11 to the end.

Drop. Set.

I'm not sure. I can do plan C, just not sure how long I can keep doing this.

This is Mexico all over again. I can't believe it.

We were just about to race this guy and I went...

I want to iso race 1-0.

Give me something. We should fuck something. Fuck something.

Even though I said it's no way Fancy's gonna work, at the end of the week I'm doing a delusional

Alex, we now think the heart is poor. We're thinking a soft tyre now, one-stop soft.

How many laps, 22? 37 laps currently remaining.

Liam, nope.

What do you think? What's this I've been saying?

That's the right line of exit. Maybe close this drop.

What we're trying to do, if there's any signs that that's going to work.

Split chrono race distance with another soft.

You don't think I can finish my set? What did you think?

I think the McLarens, George and Hulkenberg will be medium soft once stopping, trying to get to the end. I think it will be difficult.

I think it'll be difficult to get to the end on a one-stop, so I'll leave that to you whether we push on or manage.

Well, how was Carlos on the south lane? We're not the same car as a top team or a Sauberson. I don't think it's possible personally.

Carlos had damage and traffic. Limited infotainment.

No, I don't think it's possible. I mean, we cannot do... Issue with the airfoil is mainly thermal, no braking. No, check the deck. Check the deck on the tyre. It's clear that I was on the cramp. I was completely on the bottom of it.

But yes, definitely includes zone 1, the way he's driving.

There's a 30% chance this is going to be a pretty fun circuit.

Right, it's 29 laps to go. Let's go straight into it. I've been right on every single call in the last three weekends. And this is the part of it.

Unless a miracle happens, I don't know how I'm going to do this.

Okay, so can you give me a bit more feedback on this, because you're really always trying to understand exactly what you're saying. There's just no way it's going to work. You're telling me it's going to work.

We're on our cruise now and it's drove.

This tyre is completely terrible. That answers the next question, thank you.

So this final stint we'll be looking at trying to overtake about five cars with 18 laps remaining.

It's so disconnected, the currents. Yes. Sorry, I'm really having to do it. Sorry.

Side of the focus now is for a new medium, having put two turns in, whether we need another one or not.

Check the track, there's got four or twelve of us there. Alright, just prepare to go.

You can curve over in just over a second to the tyre delta. It'll be around 20 seconds. 20 seconds to P10.

B-Bal off tyres, currently P9. B-Bal off tyres with 18 laps to go. I've got no twist over there, bastards!

I mean, we can try, but...

I don't know where he's headed. Hang on, I'll look at something.

I guess you had no choice but to try.

Hadjar is 0.5 to hide.

I've said it from the beginning of the race, no chance.

But we have nothing to lose, do we? That's the thing. There's no way we're going to get points either way.

Earlier, opening at turn one, you've got three positions, seven, three, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, eighteen, nineteen, twenty, twenty-one, twenty-two, twenty-three, twenty-four, twenty-five, twenty-six, twenty-seven, twenty-eight, twenty-seven, twenty-nine, twenty-eight, twenty-nine, twenty-eight, twenty-nine, twenty-nine, twenty-eight, twenty-nine, twenty-nine, twenty-nine, twenty-nine, twenty-nine, twenty-nine, twenty-nine, twenty-nine, twenty-nine, twenty-nine, twenty-nine, twenty-nine, twenty-nine, twenty-nine, twenty-nine, twenty-nine, twenty-nine, twenty-nine, twenty-nine, twenty-nine, twenty-nine, twenty-nine, twenty-nine, twenty-nine, twenty-nine, twenty-nine, twenty-

Stay like this, we'll be in range for three to four laps to go.

We're about to hit the turn 4 switch.

2.2 seconds quicker than Hadjar last lap. Off one extra head. 4.6 ahead.

You just need to be at least a second out quicker than Hadjar, which you currently are.

Gap to Hadjar in P9 is 8.3.

If you need more, diff opening at 6-7. Suggest high speed 11. There's more opening at 6-7. High speed 11.

The Hadjar is 7.4, Ocon at 2.3.

I know, he's a god. We're looking at the optics.

One old or two earlies.

Lawson P7 is in the high 15s, low 16s now.

I'm going to be in a tricky spot. Gap to Lawson in P7 at 4.4, so it's all bunching up.

Push the throttle down by 90.

That's tight. It's tight. Yeah, so tight.

I feel like he, er, there was a clear run me out there. I don't know if that's, er, that's not what he did, but I, er, I made contact to his car and had to leave the track. Yeah, I can't believe he saw that.

That was a brilliant effort at the end. I don't know if there was a lot of bit fluid in terms of what we were doing at times, but I want them to stick in there and be really close at the end.

Alex, well thought, well reviewed of everything. I don't think we got a call quite right today. Well done on that fight back and the good news is the car's still quick.
