Stay close to the car in front.

Okay, we're going to keep the engine running. Stay close to the tyre pumps. The right side of the fast lane. Stay in the fast lane.

OK, mate, that's good. I'll keep the engine running. Two minutes twenty to go.

The taps, this might actually work out quite nicely.

We're going to stick to the standard outlap for the moment. That's a 1.80, but it's turned 1.5, 1.15 to go. So now we'd like to default to that. Once we've got a few readings updated from the tyres, we might ask you to adjust a little bit later in the lap, but no stress now.

We think already 12-15, you'll be pushing a little bit more, I'll give you an update. Target level.

So, we've got the countdown from safe car line 2.

I'll count you down. Seven, six, five, four, three, two, one.

418.345.

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 12, 14. Remember, it's not all done in this first lap. Let's use this to get a feel for it.

Good start of the brakes. It's a 16. Recharge off. Good to go.

Norris behind to 1.3. Then a 10 second gap to the Gasly push.

You're good with time, minute 20 margin. Piastri time lap now, five and a half.

They're going to put it all behind me.

You're cleared for the Bi-Metro-Pause for Bortoleto shortly. Bortoleto, three seconds.

That's very hard at this time. I appreciate it, Stricky. Watch for Stroll coming through, then you're clear for a moment.

Next car pushing, Alonso, he's at turn 2.

Minutes margin. So we're going for a push next lap.

Fast this time, 20.9 for Hadjar.
