Forty seconds.

VTAC is open.

Back up to Colapinto full.

Five. Six. Let's go.

I'm going to go tyre 7. 7 gear. Gear is open.

We do the same down to turn nine.

And back to tyre 8 and we push as we did this morning on this tyre.

Gap ahead is good. Charge off.

Charge on and box. Box and back on flap.

Honestly, I was pretty happy with the lap. Copy.

Turn one, Liam, we saw a snap.

Yeah, it's okay.

Plenty of marginal timing. Very good.

I'll go strapped 5.

We do the same outlap once we open the gap to Norris.

And for turn 5 we are happy to use mint, plus one if you need more stability. Exit turn 5, tyre 7, 7 gear, DRS on, and full throttle.

Honestly, I don't know if I needed that turn 5.

OK, tyre 8 and no CSP out of 7 and some weaving to build some margin on temperature.

No DRS and some weaving with braking turn 9. There are a few cars opening a lap ahead, so we will slow down last sector.

Norris 7, I have to be preparing.

Norris 5. Start gate 7 seconds. Norris 4. Norris 4. 4. 4. 5. 6.

Charge on. Keep pushing turn one. Hamilton behind. Hamilton two behind. Just behind you. Mate, honestly, does he even look in his mirrors? Yeah, that wasn't great. But it was a good lap for you. So, Stroll four behind.

Next car, Colapinto, 7.

Still, a couple of cars close and we're P8. That was a strong lap. We do that once more.

And Isack, main loss is turn one, so you are carrying more speed in late entry.

EOP5. And we go. Norris in turn one now, pushing.

Clear behind. No constant speed. No CSP.

First car pushing, Piastri six behind.

Keeping an eye on the maximum time and weaving again down to turn 9. And stay braking. Yeah, copy.

Next car is Albon 7. We are free to push on tyre.

I'll go four behind. Charge off. Go.

Charge on. Good luck.

And for temperature, lift off, F5.

We're P9 for now and we're through. Safe. Good job, man.

It looks like turn 9 braking. We've got some... We're on the kerb. Yeah, it looks like we're more on the kerb.

I'm happy for you. If you want to go charge off and try again, you're clear ahead.

It's not enough time, honestly, for your head speed. Copy.

OK. Now we're OK. Move for temperature. Keep an eye on the maximum time and we box.

Gap to Bearman 2. Clear pit exit.

Four. Five. Six. Let's go. Tire seven. Seven gear out of five.

Go to Parc fermé, that's P5.

We keep 37.7 here. And we brake in turn 9. Work on brakes.

Back to Dye 8.

And we can push a bit more on this tyre in the last sector.

Gap ahead is good. Charge off and push.

No transcript available

Charge on, charge off, clear behind.

So, reference Bearman with the used soft. Did a 43.47. We did 43.55. But not far. It's a bit of a snap turn 6. Without that, it would have been faster. Yeah, turn 6 was a bit short. Did you touch the kerb or anything?

Copy. We are having a look. First car pushing, Piastri 9. We box.

Gas three, four. Three. Let's go.

If you agree on flap, I would go back to what we had.

Turn six looks a combination of a bit more brake pressure and probably on the edge of the track line curve, sort of.

Yeah, it's just that exit on throttle though. I don't like it.

And maybe, you know, this used tyre, he might have had it through a new tyre. We didn't have that for now. So let's reset. You're warmed up. It's a difficult task. I know I'm asking you something difficult, but that's what we're here for. So max focus on this lap, turn one. Still keeping my track limits and then we go from there.

In turn 6, so everything is super tricky, but you have a bit more brake pressure here, so it's creating a bit more rear locking. Plus, it's slightly windier than Q1 and Q2, so I think a combination of both made the exit a bit tricky.

Press obviously all tyres.

Same outlap, Liam, with the DRS and the constant speed.

For some reason, there are two cars ahead, they're very close, so I think he's beating Agap, happy to do the same. Keep an eye on the maximum time.

Doing the CSP. 7th gear. Good braking, turn 9.

OK, tyre 8. Sainz 6 ahead.

P7 is going now. We're good.

Charge on. OK, we're P15. Keep it posted.

OK, everyone has closed this lap. We're B to a T.

And lift off and straight for temperature.

What's the margin? Very, very close. The cutoff was just like 36 milliseconds to P11 and less than 40 milliseconds to P10.

We knew from the outset it was going to be difficult with the plan we had. We had to take one for the team. Yeah, we knew. Why not? We knew. So what the...

I bet you also know the reason why we did it.

Of course I do, mate, but fuck it, Q1. It doesn't make a fucking difference. I know, it hurts.
