I will need to sink the gears without a problem.

OK, we have Norris turn 1. Pushing. OK, Norris should be ahead. On next one, Piastri is currently 6 behind. And then there is a big gap behind Piastri. Piastri, braking turn 1.

He has to have three behind him.

Okay, 7-8 lap. Piastri, 7-8 lap.

I have understeer at turn 5.

OK, Norris ahead is slow. Piastri 1.5 behind. He's been locked. We can let him by when he comes.

OK, watch your mirror. Speed astray.

Ok, I will keep working on tyres and brakes.

And behind you is Hulkenberg on new soft.

OK, we have a couple of cars in the last corner preparing for a lap.

No problem if we have a bit of traffic. We can keep the pace up for build-up.

Hulkenberg, 6.5.

On max it's 41.9.

Piastri, 43.8 on soft.

Hulkenberg 7 behind. He is slowing down.

OK, I think we have margin to do a brake after we overtake Leclerc to open the gap to Perez. Hulkenberg 8 behind. Abort it.

And Yuki, Sainz, Ocon, they all did mid-46.

We are still missing one lap for the front tyres, but we can push. We'll see.

And we would like to keep pushing.

Yep, I'm happy to keep pushing.

On Yuki Freer, this is a 44.1.

Currently P9, three and a half tenths from max in P6.

Okay, on maximum improved, 40.1. Max, medium, 40.1. And we're happy to keep pushing.

That's it.

Mode 6 when you can. Durante in mode 5.

Copy, another traffic. Russell is slowing down ahead. We can consider clearing Russell if you want.

And then we should stay in mode 6 to have flexibility if you agree.

No one is pushing behind. Yep.

OK, so turn CP 11, and the other two Red Bulls on medium are faster, and you're the best behind the Red Bull on the medium. Ocon, two tenths behind you.

OK, and Sainz is going to go for a lap. He can open the gap. Tyres are OK now.

We close this lap and we will go for a cool down.

Yep, how does that...

Okay, so that's P10. Only still best of the medium behind the two red bulls.

And we go for mode 1 in the background and we convert to push-pull push. Sargeant 3.5 behind pushing. So we keep front tyres up and easy on power. Sargeant 2 behind pushing.

Sergeant, still two behind.

Strat 1.5 pushing, then it's Ocon 5.

Ocon too behind pushing. Coming now.

Ocon behind you now, and no one else after that. So only place you are losing compared to Yuki, it's very last corner, compared to his braking a bit earlier, but able to be one tenth faster with a better exit last corner.

OK. He's also using one gear higher.

Still ok from behind. Next car pushing is 18 behind.

You can do a bit of charge off to get him if you want, and straight back on.

Ok, no problem. Big gap behind. Open the last corner. And charge off when you are. Charge off turn 14.

Ok, so now we have Ocon with a 40.3. Your last lap was a 40.8.

We'll put recharge on. We'll try again. We'll prep the notation. OK, procedure going back up on E-B.

Open diff mid. Open diff mid two-step. Top right rotary. Keep the position. Cars behind on cool-down.

So we are currently P16 with other cars improving. Bottas did a 40.3 as well. Charge off. Copy.

OK, we go for cool down and I can give you one more lap.

OK, we have Sargeant 2.5 behind. Not sure what he's doing.

And that puts you back in P12.

Ocon is 3 tenths ahead in P9. Sargeant is cooled down. Next car pushing Zhou is 4 behind. Strat 10. One more lap.

Zou straight behind, and we can keep opening the diff mid-issue net.

Zou two behind only car pushing. After Zou we keep the position. Zou one behind pushing.

And compared to Bottas, main limitation is turn 3 for entry minimum speed.

On reminder, Verstappen.

Yeah, turn 3 is a front limitation.

OK, charge off last corner. One more lap.

We still want me to complete this lap. Just the front is pretty much gone.

Happy for charge on inbox. Copy on the front.

I'm happy for charge off on P23. Box, box.

We have a look for the next one.

Track is clear.

No one pushing behind. So, Perez and Sainz both managed to do it on the first push. Max about it. So, it's 50-50 at the moment. So, we push into the right there and we try.

DRS ahead, he's on cooldown. He will let you by when you come.

On Bottas' first push, 39.4 on soft. So yeah, people make it work.

Okay, we have Max ahead of you, opening a gap. Only car. Max 6 ahead.

Position is good. Just max to open the gap. Max nose through your head. Ok, we try to open the gap a bit more to max. Nobody pushing behind. Charger for you.

Yeah, traffic. Was I mid-turn? Oh, come on.

You should have done. Yep. You should have done. Okay.

Perez 3, pushing on then Zhou with 9 behind. Leclerc 8 is on cooldown, he's very slow.

Ok, that's just Perez behind Hamilton. Hamilton letting him by. Perez 1.5 seconds.

Still 1.5. Perez pushing, coming now.

On next one is Zou, 6 behind. We try to keep the position after Perez.

Ciao Giafrascone.

And Bottas improved 38.6 on soft second attempts.

Charge of last corner.

OK, we can go slower for the cool-down with the change we made. You can look at your front tyres on the dash. They are high now. So other cars are doing between plus 20 to plus 30 on the dash. Max was very slow in the cool-down. So we can take it easy in the cool-down now with the change we made. Hamilton 6 behind pushing. You're currently P8.

B8. And we're checking the GPS. OK. There's similar balance. Two coming down. Similar comments.

OK, copy that. Do you think we picked up a bit more rotation? We see a bit more rotation on our side. Or you still want more?

Still one more. OK.

Same thing against Bottas. He's turn 3-4, then we lose on the way up to turn 5.

Ok, well. Max pushing 10BHP.

Max is 8 behind pushing.

On the last sector we are P13, but it's only in the straight we are losing. Max 3 behind, and then Perez is 9 behind. Ok, that's Perez 7, pushing. Consider opening more the diff mids, we have margin. Perez 5 behind, pushing.

Hold that Perez car. Copy. And then Sergio is 7 behind Perez. Sergio first corner.

Is anyone else pushing? Negative. Leclerc 8 behind. OK, Sargeant, abort it. I'll keep you posted on Leclerc.

Yep, I'll try again but it's quite light.

Let's go rearward brake balance if you can manage your stability. That should help a bit the rotation as well.

On the mid was one step too much for the big snaps. Back to mid 5. So mid 5 offset minus 2. Leclerc 4 behind pushing. So don't drop too much if you want to go.

Do I have time to try one more? Yes, yes. Sergeant pushing 5.5.

Sergeants 3, 2, coming now. No one behind him. Big gap behind him.

OK, start box. Copy. I pit the box.

OK, box confirm. Yes, still the same limitations.

On manual, what about going 1-0-1 mechanical as well, changing the front bar, in terms of channel direction?

Yep. Yeah, I just...

Track will be clear.

So Perez is currently 13 behind. First car which will be pushing.

You have three cars ahead of you.

I'll be with the weaving after turn 9 and the same again in the back straight.

Perez, 8 behind pushing. I'll keep you posted.

OK, let's do a bit of weaving while you are.

There is 5.

And Bottas is 6th.

Perez 3. Perez coming now.

Okay, and then we try to pick up the pace and do weaving, good braking, and we may have to wait for one car in the last corner.

Okay, I'll do another front turn ready. Copy, front not ready. So keep the base up please.

We have Leclerc 6 ahead aborted as well. Bottas also.

The next car pushing is 15 behind Max.

So Leclerc is a bit slower than us ahead.

I will do weaving again in the back straight.

On max, you're still 13 behind.

Okay, so that just will be Leclerc for traffic to go again. Max 10 behind.

Okay, max still 10 behind. We are good behind. So just open the gap to the car.

Sector 2 is strong. Sector 1 is still turn 3-4. Yuki is able to keep a bit more throttle through that corner.

And we are checking the last sector. Both cars are bottom of the field, sector 3. I guess it's a long straight. Maybe something there.

No one pushing behind. We need to keep working on front, easy on traction.

And do you think you can do the pull toggle for rotation turn 3-4 between turn 1 and turn 3 or too short?

Yep, I can do it.

Positioning still good.

So, Yuki, first lap was 38.2. On your first lap was 37.9.

And it's a couple of tenths sector 1, especially turn 3-4. On sector 3 we are looking, but mostly in the straight.

Charge off last corner. Pull to goal turn 3-4. Position is good.

Hold low. I'll go and get backflip. Don't miss this. I need to get DRS. I've checked them. Put my yellows. Copy.

Ciao, ciao, frescone!

Okay, if you need one more, I'm happy to give you one more time.

So Yuki did a 37.4. Your lap time is a 37.65. And the main difference is sector 3. We are looking. We think he had a tow.

Also pushing 5 behind us.

Yep, understood.

I'll start another one, but we'll see. Probably not much more I can get out of it. Alonso, two behind coming now.

Magnussen, 7 behind pushing.

And we lost a bit under braking in that last lap compared to Yuki. Turn 12 on last corner. Magnussen 5 behind pushing on two cars to go ahead. Magnussen 4. Magnussen 3 coming now.

Is it clear behind him? Yes.

Go back to the box.

OK, box, box. You can push in the end of...

4 behind. Pushing.

Alonso CBR in pushing.

Sainz 7 behind pushing.

On OK for charge off. Box, box, pit entry test.

We have Bottas approaching turn 1.

Bottas in turn 1.

OK, I'm stuck as well.

So we've made a correction with the flap to help against graining, and if we need more flap or more EB, we will do that.

If the front limitation is a big issue with the green, the EB is your best tool. Engine braking will be the best tool.

So, Albon started in the 41 and you did a 40.3 on medium.

Stay in mode 3. One more lap, please. Stay in mode 3.

Mode 6.

Ocon, low 41.

On Piastri, high 40s. Piastri, 40.9.

Thank you.

Strat 10. Strat 10 when you want. Sargeant 4 behind.

Is Carlos slow? Or is he holding back? He might be managing, I don't know. Not sure.

Okay, yeah, you still have it, go ahead. Copy.

And if you have no concern for stability, we can go another click rearward offset.

So currently five tenths faster than Ocon.

Engine 11, position 1.

When you can, back to strat. Correction, strat 2 when you can, not your jumps. Strat 2.

Ocon, last lap was a 40.2. Your last lap was a 39.9. Stroll, 40.3. Alonso, 40.3. So we are there.

Yep, understood. Still pretty stable. Copy that, thank you.

And even with the change, we still see a little bit of relooking at the bike, turn 14. So you can consider two clicks forward for turn 14.

Ok, that looks better. Back to minus three and then we do the same again.

Yep, I'm sick.

OK, we see understeer slightly increasing. Consider another step of EB. And pace is good. You're faster than Aston, Alpine and McLaren.

Yuki on the hard is not far away.

We will take the flag this lap.

And that will be mode 12 on the line. We can take the flag and then mode 12.

OK, sorry, I should have warned you a little bit earlier. That was the end of the run. Never mind.

And tell me please to move TB8 torque position 3 and we get ready for the start of the grid.

We can go back to offset minus two for the start. You can choose the side for the start.

Target is three shallow. Target is three shallow.

It will be 3 times tyre warming. Click overtake in 1st gear on 3 times tyre warming. You can choose the side as far forward as you can.

OK, click over to X3 tyre warming. Good job. And then mode 3 for the start.

Our tyres are a little bit colder now. We are below zero. 4-1.
