It's supposed to be an LB, isn't it?

I think I was ahead, but yeah. Yeah, you were ahead, but yeah, copy.

Switch off and head back to P2. Two minutes before we start the session.

So, you're at 10.9, 10.9 is good for traffic management, but not on the yellow switch.

Approach is coming up to 15 seconds, good to fire up.

I'll be out lap potentially plus five slower.

Fill the gap at the exit.

First car on track, turn 14, Verstappen, and there's a 10 second gap to Gasly. He's still 20 seconds back. Gap to Hadjar at 4.456.

Six, seven, eight and a half.

Verstappen at 11.5 now, weaving into 4.

Brake switched to out. Let's not let the 8s back.

You need to lean on the front as much as you can. Verstappen still six pack.

7k headwind into turn 1. Stappen is 4th back. Good to push his 789. He's 0.1 at 10. He's 3rd back.

Mike May headwind at turn six. Verstappen still two back.

Lean on it where we can in the last sector, weaving into 16.

9K, headwind into turn 10. No threat behind us. Norris, outlap behind you. Go, push.

Pause the gap. You have an eight second gap for the car behind, so you have margin on the SC2. Eight second gap. Margin.

1-0 on the dash. Next car back is still eight seconds back. That was a purple sector one, but do we have plan B3?

OK, 0 on the dash now. We've got Antonelli leaving the pitlane. Watch out, Lawson and Lawson pushing.

That's it. That was a wet gust. Just brake earlier than that.

Push on the first one. Aim to try and keep some margin on cross time at the end.

Just a double cool prior ice. Yep. OK.

And it's a double cool beyond the later end of the cross, so we just want to manage the traffic on this first one.

He's going to go next lap now.

You still have one lap time. Understood, one lap time.

I think it's still plan B because I don't need the...

It's OK. I feel like it's...

I think it might be... yeah, OK. 1-0-1. 4-1-0-1. On field push.

It's 1-1, I think. It's hard for me to tell because it's so close.

What's the other car doing? I think they're on for 4. Push double clutch.

Carlos, are you still looking? Alex, just feedback. Turn 9, exit, that's the limit. Track limits.

Okay, I failed the gap. Max 8.

Trachy goes at three tenths. George, last corner now. There's a seventh gap to Verstappen. Five back is Tsunoda. George in seven. George alongside now. Gap to Carlos in five. To Carlos in six. Verstappen in five. George potentially on a build lap. Verstappen three back, should be pushing. Verstappen in two. Go out. Next car pushing, Tsunoda in five. Tsunoda in two.

Hulken 6, Bortoleto 13, both pushers. George, I think, is messing me up. Yep.

Breeding out of turn 10. Hulkenberg with you in 2.

Back still within 2.30 overtake.

With you at 1.0 DRS is still a setback for Bortoleto, so I'll try and lean on it through the last sector, weaving into 16.

That's right. Four, George, three...

That's solid on the other side, just a little bit of a second push over all fours and that's a three back pushing. Up ahead of quarter George, going to push.

Clear behind Richard Close.

It's definitely a first time for you. Okay, Hadjar. Hadjar, Hadjar only at 1. It should be in 6.8.

Just trying to maintain front right, dropping the rear, making rear left.

It's actually wider at 5, isn't it? Yes, because I had a terrible outlap at 2.

Hatcher behind in sync with you on a double call. George will do the same, he's currently six ahead.

Use DRS into turn one. Every car is leaving the pitlane ahead of you, potentially. Just be mindful of that.

Bearman just leaving the pitlane. Ocon already ahead of him going into turn 1. Getting ahead of Bearman.

Exit the Ocon three ahead. I lost nine ahead.

Comp 4 ahead. Carlos 9 ahead.

We've got a train of three cars in sync to be behind. Moving into 12. Ocon five ahead, Carlos eight ahead. Hold position to behind.

Minus one, minus three on the dash.

Good to keep the speed up now on the inlapses. Keep the speed up on the way in.

The car is stranded. I'm repurposing it. Six hundred fifty.

When I don't have it, I have understeer. When I have it, I have oversteer.

OK, so soft tyre. This is a four-time lap push, double-cooled push, or it's out-build push.

I don't know. You guys see much more than I do. What was everyone's second push like?

That's a double push, may help. Turn 1 is neutral. It's easier on buttons. You could double-pull turn 2 to turn them off.

Yes, that was a good gap.

Alex, we're driving well, so the main loss to Carlos is really just turn one mid to exit. Rest of the lap looks strong. 14 isn't a big time loss. So like I say, just take a bit of margin on the exit there, just to not bottom.

Still Norris in the garage, so he's aiming to be in front of here. I'll try to let these cars clear as much as possible.

Correct, please keep 50ft.

Greg, do you reckon this could be a first lap?

OK, so close. We'll turn into 2 first, I think.

Okay, so Piastri's at turn one. Gap to him at four seconds. Five, six, six and a half, seven. Good, let's go.

OK, so planning, push, double cool, push. Final push is currently on a 10 second cross, so we're just managing cool lap times. Roger.

Oscar pushing Antonelli 12 back. Past your head and ahead.

Landing overtake completed on street 10 ahead.

Clear the high end, weaving into 16.

Tsunoda is still nine back, could slip on the brakes. Clear to open. Look ahead at 10 to Piastri. Go, push.

Normal pacing to SC2, minus seven on the dash, dropping rear. Minus seven on the dash, dropping rear, so turning P4. Normal pacing to SC2.

Minus seven on the dash. Timing's on the first one. I'll come back to you for the second call.

Minus seven, you said? Yeah, minus seven. Just tight in the final lap.

Almost crossed cars at turn one. That was a higher peak.

OK, P5. Oh, it's P6. That's it.

Speed up on the straight into turn one. Behind you, Norris, eight seconds. He will open next lap. He does not have time to open after another call.

Use the DRS to help the rear. Have a good race.

We're way too, we're gonna be way too hot.

Ah, how have we got this?

Turn over. Five to ten seconds cross. Okay, get past Norris. Get past Norris.

Right, go minus one, minus three on the dash, go switch to N.

Minus one to minus three. Speed ten, look, nine, that's eight.
