Copy, I'll do a radio check. Copy.

Lawson three and a half ahead.

Track is a bit slippery. Copy.

Russell is doing a flap-flap. Four seconds ahead.

I think we'll take a prep. Olli Esteban is doing a prep lap. Go ahead.

Confirm. Grab the flap. I'll leave.

So far, everyone on E-mediums.

Similar wind, P1, so still a pale wind in P12.

Okay, we think Hadjar will open the next lap and do two in a row. Verstappen on an out lap behind. Don't want to get behind him. I have understeer at turn 80. Okay, so suck. You've already got that, good.

Charge on. Watch for Colapinto approaching too and then Esteban straight behind him. And watch for Verstappen too. Not sure what he's doing.

This car pushing his fourth level eleven behind.

That's good lap 23.367.

Watch for point level 4. Level 3.

11.3 and Alonso behind him.

Alonso three and a half. Alonso three and two.

Next car is Piastri 4, Piastri 3, Piastri 2.

QR 10, Sainz 4.

Sainz 5, Hulkenberg 5, Hulkenberg 4.

0.2. I'm up in 4 behind Priscine.

Compromised entry of 9 for better exit.

Does it look like fishing? Negative.

No, all in sync behind.

Watch for Bortoleto 3.0 behind Priscine, Leclerc and Bout.

Piastri pressure four behind. Piastri three.

Street 2 and then Stroll behind him. Stroll 4.

Stroll's got Hamilton 4 behind Hamilton 3.

Next car pushing is Norris, 9 behind.

Thinking we should box this lap. Norris 5 behind. You think so. Norris 3.

What did you say? It's not right.

OK, let's try one more lap.

Can I go plus one brake balance for turn 5? For turn 5, we'll let you know. We can pull back to braking for turn 1.

Let's try 1% forward turn 5. Both axles are at the limit.

I'll leave the charge on. Hamilton compression three behind. We could do a single cool or another push if you want. Hamilton two.

Turn 1 was better. Sainz 5 behind pushing.

Pushing. 4, 3, and 2.

Next position is Piastri 7. Piastri 6 and 5.

The next car is Norris. He's 15 behind.

18.16 exit. NOS 4.

Set a timebrake at turn 14. Watch now.

OK, Ollie, we can box this lap.

Perfect, it's enough.

Suggest no DRS on outlaps.

OK, Oliver, we're thinking try a no-brake pattern once we'll update you for turn 14.

Crap.

OK, let's go for a prep lap.

Oh, I'm happy. It's hot too, I think.

Yellow turn 9. Leclerc has stopped.

I've got no grip behind.

Sync with all these cars.

Nobody pressuring at the moment, only where the tyre is ready. Turn 1.

Not fantastic.

He's still going to do three laps on that.

I think next lap will have to be our spot on lap.

HR 8 behind.

Hadjar 7.

Hadjar 6, Hadjar 5.

Hadjar. Let's try a lap in Spark 2, Oli, and then we can go Spark 1.

Charge on. Watch for Bortoleto 4 behind pushing. We can go spark 1. Level 3.

1-0-2. And then Hamilton 5. Hamilton 3. Hamilton 2.

Verstappen six behind. There's a yellow in turn five. He's off track. Verstappen four, Verstappen three.

Verstappen 1, BMW backed off. Gasly pushing 4 behind. Gasly 3 behind, pushing. Verstappen just stopped. I couldn't overtake him at that point. Yeah, I think he backed off for the yellow. He backed off to let me back through because he realised he overtook me at the yellow.

In sync with all these cars. We can go spark one.

The track is clear and expect all these cars to open up.

I need some brake camp to open the lap.

Red flag, Olli, red flag. No overtaking.

Not sure what it's for, Ollie. There's a rain marker though.

What a messy run on soft.

Yeah, this is a driver-owned accident, aren't we?

Sweep out.

I think I need... I'll double-trap, baby.

I have to do I-F-F first, shall we?

Recommend DRS off from front lap. Copy.

All the way to Esteban ahead. We'll also take a prep.

I don't know what you're talking about. It's parked.

Still abuse the three-placed self-gas. For two it's worth wasting.

Red flag, Oli, red flag.

I'm not sure why. No overtaking.

Okay, Ali, should there be no grid starts or clocks to snap, it's the end of the session. Copy.

I'll leave the box now. Brakes are cold, so don't attack the concrete.

I'll leave pitlane.

Yeah, same really, at the weekend it's...
