Remember, it's a double release.

Everybody pit it.

Apart from Piastri, Norris and Ocon, those three didn't pit.

Mode SC.

Good job there, managing the damage car ahead of you and taking a stroll for them. Yes, keep getting the guys ahead of us.

Let's bring some temperatures into those tyres slowly. I know that you are limited by the front car. You can weave a little bit, you can weave a little bit.

Any expectations of when the safety car will be over?

Not yet. I will keep you posted. And Ocon just hit it.

Stay close to your delta. Stay close to your delta. He has a penalty, so we will come back in the other track behind you.

And currently you are P15, I believe.

And Gabi, the tyre management was good. Just mind your lift in turn 9.

Safety car in this lap. Moda rest for the restart. Safety car in this lap.

Piastri, the leader. Good.

Got the control of the pace. Safety guy is in plan 14.

And you can hold more RS until turn 7.

OK, mate, power the tyres, power with the flap.

Feeling OK. Couple of steps. Left feels OK, maybe. Minus one.

Hamilton loves DRS. Yeah, let me know when you're pleased.

Hamilton will not have the RSC.

For the leaders, the two McLarens just pitted the previous laps. Everybody has pitted now once. Stroll pitted again behind. He is doing a few laps of the soft and he will get possibly a penalty.

And there's five more laps. Five more laps.

OK, Gabi, you can use the tyre. You can use the tyre at a higher speed. Do not use kerbs.

Opportunity. Time to focus on exit.

Oh, it's a flap.

Feels okay, just a bit of oversteer. Sorry.

When red M3H will help, red M3H will help and let's try to use the pace, use the pace to close the gap to Hamilton. He will have a busy pitlane when he pits.

OK, push as much as you can at the highest speed for two laps. Top five.

We are boxing this lap. Push all the way in. Push all the way in. As much as you can.

Box, Gaby, box. It's going to be a piece of pitlane.

Hold your brake. More RS, more RS.

Out lap two, out lap two.

I think you can bring this tyre in, bring this tyre in. You have a gap around.

Sock six. Sock six.

And rev M38, rev M38.

Ahead of you, Albon and Hamilton fitted a new medium. Behind, Colapinto and Gasly fitted new medium. Ahead of them, Lawson and Tsunoda on new hearts.

That's a good job on the gentleman's production. You are the only car on soft that could open opportunities. You are P15.

Come on, you are doing a good job here. In turn 9 and turn 12, we will have to manage more than the previous run on the medium, OK?

OK mate, that was a good management of higher speed. There's a bit more room to push out of turn 9. Entry is good. Mine, turn 5, exit.

A bit of radar race update. You are P15 ahead of you. A train of cars, of five cars, led by a strolling P10. He will have to stop again.

Let me know if I can do anything better.

First one, gravity fall delta 0-0 on. Gravity fall delta 0-0 on. An opportunity, turn 4, focus on exit.

1.45. That was good. You can increase your pace to a higher speed in just one step.

We are happy to reduce management on higher speed, tyre temperatures are stabilised.

We are happy to increase the pace from higher speed than what you have done in the last lap. One step more. You're doing a good job here.

For reference, Hamilton 25.8.

Colapinto 26.2.

Safety car window open. Safety car window open.

Last 15 laps to go. How is it going there? How are the tyres? And remember to drink. Yeah, if I drink instantly, it's not worth it. Tyres are OK.

That's a good job. 14 laps to go.

We are matching the pace of the cars around.

You are doing a very good job there with the tyres. Just mind from oversteer in turn 6, turn 7.

Ok, suggestion MULTI-A state 7, MULTI-A state 7, that's 12 laps to go.

OK, 10 laps to go. Stroll will pit in this lap or next one and you will be P14.

Request suggestion, silver mid 8, silver mid 8, red entry 9, red entry 9.

Opportunity, turn 6, a bit earlier off brakes. Nine laps to go.

That was a better turn 6. Let's keep working towards that direction. Stroll just pitted URP14.

Gabi, we're happy you use the tyres as much as you want in turn 9. You can increase your pace and the high speed just one step. And in turn 9 you can use as much as you want. Seven laps to go.

And you can use the time more in the higher speed if you want. Be mindful of gaps.

And, Gabi, we are happy to come back to silver mid-seven. Silver mid-seven, that's six laps to go. How is the tyres? How is the pace? It's starting OK. I've got limited front laps.

Suggestion, blue EB5. Blue EB5.

Suggestion, red N3, 8. Red N3, 8.

You can push these tyres as much as you want.

Sock 5. Sock 5 has four laps to go. Verstappen, the leader of the race, is three cars behind. Ocon and Colapinto will get blue flags.

Towards the gap to K3, Verstappen.

The gap from Verstappen to P2 is over 10 seconds. He is safe and you will be safe on the second blue flag.

Check my floor, left-hand side.

Being mindful of debris at the end of the main straight on the racing line. Being mindful of debris on the main straight coming to turn one.

Car behind is Verstappen, leader of the race.

Mind of Hadjar ahead of you with a puncture. Hadjar ahead of you with a puncture. Floor is good.

Car behind Verstappen. Two laps to go.

Cross the gap behind Verstappen to Colapinto.

Three seconds, just stay ahead. That will be the last lap. Last lap so far. Verstappen just won the race. It's the last lap, it's the last lap.

Could I manage high-speed?

Yes, please. That will be for free. There's no threats behind.

That will be the checkered flag, checkered flag, mode N, mode N, and you're in lap driving, that's very useful. Very solid race, man, very solid. Obviously, we couldn't do much, but you finished P13, P13, what is very good from where you started in P19, so good job, man, very well managed. You did a fantastic job with this soft tyre.

Yeah, well done guys. Starting from that position didn't help but let's go for the last one in Abu Dhabi and try to finish with good results. Thanks everyone for the weekend and for the sticker in the car as well.

Good. And if you didn't see it, that's Verstappen P1, Piastri P2, Sainz P3, Norris P4.

What happened to Norris?

I think that McLaren didn't box in the first safety car, sorry, in the safety car, there was only one. And then in the last stop, he came behind Williams and a Mercedes. He managed to overtake only the Mercedes.

Welcome in, and when you arrive to Parc fermé, pull switch off as per your use of it. Well done again, good job pulling.
