Go to Parc fermé.

Radio check for Lando. 1-2-3. OK. Skip to the strat when you get the wheel on.

Yeah, all good. Radio check. Yeah, slider clear, so you've got 4 minutes 30 now. Depth if you go ahead. Radio check, Fernando. Yeah, all good. Let's have a look at the switches as well. Make sure you're happy.

Fernando, ready to check for the pitwall? Yep. Okay, so it's three minutes now to the formation. So, majority's on medium, as you'd expect. There's two cars on soft, so you've got Hulkenberg P11 and Hamilton P17, they're soft. And there's two cars on hard, that's Albon P14 and Colapinto pitlane. So most medium, two cars on soft, first one is P11. Two cars on hard, first one is P14.

One minute 30 now.

That's 30 seconds. So you can make a bit of a gap after the launch, then it's high speed weaving, a one hundred lift, turn one, and then we're going to push through 1-2-3.

B-Bal offset plus one hundred.

High-speed weaving. One hundred lift. Pushing 123.0.

Can't do any high speed. We take it. It's 7th, 5th, lift, 4th, 4th, and then gentle entry. Gentle entry, Phil.

Very small 50 lift there.

Make sure you've got a good stop in 7. The launch was minus four, that's good. Launch was good.

I'll shoot eight but go easy at nine. Gentle through nine. I don't know. Three hundred lift, a big lift at the end if you can.

High-speed weaving. Gentle head for turn 12.

Good to stop before 15. Subway for you down here before 16.

One hundred left now. One hundred left now.

Fernando, it will be seven burnouts. Seven burnouts.

Rep to use K0. Join the Bennetts.

So, back to 1-0-8 and you're going to stop. I'll let you know when the last car is approaching.

Last car approaching now, so we are watching.

Minus 42.

Good job, so that's P6 for now.

DRS will be active. Exit final call at this moment.

Behind Russell, you've got Hadjar. He's 1.2 back without DRS.

Copy that, we'll feed it back.

This is starting lap 6 now, so for us I know it's difficult. If you could lift slightly earlier, turn 12, that would be good.

You can reduce green, MFA green diff if you need. Climb six.

Safe to go, safe to go. Get it positive. Get it positive.

Lando, what do you think of the air balance? I think it's low, but I still feel OK, I don't know.

And we're going to box this lap. Box this lap.

Quick dry out.

Remember, you can push to the safe start line. There's only one on the front.

Get it positive, get it positive.

Suggest pre-select strap at 11.

As much tyre heating as you can for now.

Lando, I added 0.2 air balance, so I suggest lock up the switches again.

Make sure you're close to the Delta. I'll punish stopping. We will be ahead.

OK, you're definitely ahead, you're alright.

Still double yellow, double yellow, pressure in front, sir.

We need MFB, pink, surge, four. MFB, pink, surge, four.

Left is on the low side, but it's all four, so all the high-speed weaving can come.

HTP on.

Just for your big picture, so everyone, 17 cars, everyone except the McLaren to a P1-2, they all stopped under the safety car, so they're all going to lap 32.

Still double yellow at turn 2. Keep an eye out for debris.

All high-speed breathing you can. When we do get racing, Fernando, happy to push the first lap or two, then we'll let you know when we start saving.

Now on lap 11. Lap 11.

So we are happy with temps now, so it will be management for this lap. We see what you're doing, that's already good. Same again.

If bracing allows, we take a slightly earlier left turn.

Starting lap 15 now. If the high speed goes understeer, you can use the right toggle.

Now lap 70.

Starting lap 21 now.

OK, so with that introduction we've done now, we're happy to start leaning on it a bit more if you need Fernando, but very gradually. But we want to have pace at the end of the stints.

Yeah, not yet.

Be that what you're doing is good, I'll let you manage it so you know from our side.

Expect Piastri one second ahead at pit exit. He's the race leader.

Norris will be two seconds behind at the pit exit at this point.

6-4. 6-4 laps to go.

And at the house, air balance.

I'm getting slow because of the switches.

I mean, it all depends on the graining. It doesn't feel bad at high speed.

Yeah, for us the balance looks fairly flat. I think if I added it would only be 0.1.

Three ball-ups, three ball-ups.

Two laps to go. Two to go. You can do HP peatle. HP peatle.

So, it'll be box this lap, box this lap. For the hard tyre, I was going to come down, but I'll just leave the flap, so no adjust, hard tyre. Copy.

If I box this lap, box this lap, it will be a busy pitlane.

OK, so check your dead switches, check your dead switches.

Happy to touch the outlap. I'll let you know when tenths are up.

Ocon, five ahead, 23 lap medium. He'll stop within the next two laps.

It's 24 laps to go. It's obviously just Hadjar behind but watching.

Tend to fill the low side to have it push again this lap.

Yeah, copy. Happy for him to come closer. No problem.

That is off on end, so back at P6 now, pedal free to go.

For us, tyres are now in the window.

HTP on. HTP on. Just here in front of Russell is 1.3 behind Hadjar.

That's 18 to go. 18 to go.

Copy. All good here.

Wow, I've lost the car.

But yeah, we're having a look. All looks okay for now.

Suggest strapped head. Strapped head.

Russell ahead has three strikes for calculus.

Fourteen to go. Fourteen to go.

Ten laps to go. Ten to go.

Well, we do see some understeer building, so we do diff mid 5 at this point.

Seven laps to go.

Take your PPE off. Take your PPE off.

Hadjar, baby, slow ahead.

That's two to go. Just keep an eye out for any debris. That tyre may be on the main straights. Stay ahead of Russell if we can. Stay within five of Russell if we can.

The early energy exit in the final corner.

Straps annoyed. Straps annoyed.

Final lap now.

It's early energy. Exit turn 10. Exit turn 10.

Just push and hold. Exit the final corner.

They are in another league. No, no, good job. Really good job. That's P7 in the end. P7 in the end. Well done.

Let's go for a warm-up.

MFB blue override position 12. MFB blue override position 12.

Nice and steady on the way in. You've got the pick up you can have.

Turbine already come to a stop. It's P1 and then P0. I'll see you back here.
