Try a coup de clair.

OK, let's have a read on the brakes.

And I will call you for the fail.

Hard to see.

And that's Aston 8 behind.

Fail 1. Fail. Fail 2. Fail. When you can.

Fail 1 confirmed. Missing fail 2. Fail when you can. On Aston, still none behind with the rake. We are good.

And you can open in turn 9. We still have a bit of a casino in the last corner.

OK, good job. We have Ager pushing Red Bull 9 behind. OK, we're good now. We're good. Charge of last corner.

And Stroll did a 31.0. First push on medium.

And carry a bit of speed last corner for stiff temperatures.

Ok, so that's currently P3, so best of the midfield. And we've got Russell did a 27.6 on medium. We go for cooldown. Sargent 4.5 behind pushing. Offset forward. Sargent 3 behind. Sargent 2 pushing, coming now. And then we have a Red Bull 5 behind pushing.

Red Bull 3.5 pushing. OK, understood. Strat 12. If you agree, we do one more lap and we consider more flaps. Hatch are coming now.

And we can open Diff 3. No one pushing behind. Position is good.

Yeah, I'll need another lap to get a better read on balance. Loud and clear. So Yuki did a 29.4, your lap time 29.0. Still there it is.

OK, Daniel, so based on what we are looking at, a double cooldown will definitely be better, but maybe we can do for a single this time around so we have a ridden balance. So consider single cooldown now and then double going forward.

Yep, understood. Is everyone on a cool down behind? Confirmed. Next car pushing is 27 seconds back. We are good. And we need to wake up the brakes a bit more in the next couple of corners.

OK, position is very good. Charge of last corner. Consider entry 6. One step down.

Back to offset zero.

OK, Russell coming. 2.5, pushing.

Ok, so we lost 1 tenth sector 1 on 2 and a half sector 2. I'll keep you posted on the compare. Double cool down.

So sector 1 is the launch out of the last corner. We were a bit too slow in the last corner and we lost half a tenth down the straight and then we lost one tenth braking turn 1.

Sorry, correction. Half a tenth down the straight and half a tenth braking turn 1. Now I'm pushing behind.

And sector 2 is especially exit turn 7. Yuki compromised turn 6 a little bit more. Only gained one and a half exit turn 7. Biggest limitation. Still no one pushing behind. Offset forward. Aero balance, happy to stay as we are for now. What's the view? Yeah, I think we stay as we are for now. Loud and clear. So your lap time was 28.3, Yuki did 27.9. And we have Gasly in between, 28.0.

On reminder, if you want a little bit more rotation early on, entry 6 available. We have a Williams pushing 3 behind. Williams 2 behind pushing, coming now. Williams 1, coming now.

Our next car pushing is 12 behind. Double cooldown.

So next cool-down, we keep going easy on the rear tyres and then a little bit of weaving for the front on good straight-line braking with the offset forward.

So at turn 6-7 it looks like we can compromise a little bit more entry turn 6 and pick up a good chunk of speed exit turn 7. We have a Haas 2.5 behind pushing, closing a turn lap. Haas coming behind you now.

And we have Magnussen last corner, possibly starting a time-lapse.

OK, Magnussen braking, turn 1, pushing.

Magnussen 2, pushing.

Magnussen 1.5 pushing coming now.

Our next one will be Vestey in the Mercedes, 8 behind pushing.

Mercedes, 4 behind.

Oh, there's two behind coming fast.

On the following car is 12 behind.

It's the McLaren. McLaren 10 behind now, pushing. And then we have Gasly 5 behind the McLaren, pushing as well.

OK, McLaren 6 behind, pushing Gasly 9.

Is there a gap behind Gasly? Yes, big gap behind Gasly.

Good braking and you let Gasly by, or the opposite way. You let him by and then good braking plus.

Ok, no one is pushing behind. Position is good.

And tyres are back in their decent place.

Understood. Charge of last corner. Back to offset zero.

Ok, double trim down same again. That was good for tyres. Offset forwards. We have a Vesti Mercedes 4 behind pushing.

Mercedes 2.5 pushing. Coming now.

On the Magnussen outlap, you can let him by.

Next car pushing Russell is 10 behind. So your lap time is 27.55, Yuki 27.35. So it's still turn 1 braking, it's one tenth, he's braking five metres later.

Russell coming now.

Yep, understood.

We have a McLaren pushing coming now.

And we have Bottas on outlap coming. Fast outlap for Bottas. You can let him by.

That's Bottas behind, and then Yuki. Not sure what Yuki is doing, but he's not pushing. Next car pushing will be Alpine 9 behind, but you can let these cars by. OK, now we have Yuki 4 behind on cooldown, and 2-1 in the Alpine pushing. OK, Alpine coming now pushing.

Fail 11-0.

We have a Red Bull 6 behind pushing.

Red Bull 3 behind pushing. Coming behind Yuki now. And that is Gasly 4.5. And we are good. Just Gasly to come. Gasly 2. 1.5 coming now. OK, that's it.

Ok, so it's 5 meters, 1 tenth braking for turn 1. Turn 6-7 was a lot better. On the next 1 tenth is in the section turn 12-13-14. Yuki is braking a bit later in turn 12.

And we need good braking the next cool-down lap, please. That will be one more push.

Yep, understood. OK, we have Porsche in the A6. We are starting a turn up.

He's 2.5 now pushing. Oh, that's it. He's coming now.

The next car pushing is Stroll. Exit turn 1. 10 behind.

Ok, so easy on power and then a little bit of speed for the brakes. Stroll 5 behind pushing.

OK, Stroll coming now. The next car pushing is 20 behind. I'll keep you posted.

That will be one more push lap on the Nürburgring to follow the plan.

Yep, understood. OK, we have McLaren with young driver coming 13 behind, pushing. I'll keep you posted.

We need a better braking for the last corner, please. Brakes are still on the low side. Outlap launch was a bit better, but we are still losing out compared to UK.

And the McLaren is still 7 behind pushing. And that's it.

OK, good job on the brakes. McLaren 5 behind. Offset zero.

McLaren 4 behind.

McLaren 3. Pushing.

OK, box, box, box, box, and you can take it easy on your way in. We'll use that tyre again. Offset forward.

OK. I just hit the marker button. That was for turn 1. Just felt like I had a bit of push off-brake. Copy that. We are checking.

Nobody pushing behind. Box, box.

Still no one pushing behind. Next car is 19 behind.

OK, we're still good on traffic. Box, box.

Box, box, stop on the mark.

Yep, pitlane.

And Daniel, thank you for the feedback in turn 1. We can see the issue. We are going to try to make some changes.

OK, yeah, understood. OK, so it's basically Isolap time. It's 5 minutes to UK and it's 10 minutes to Stroll in P2. All very, very close. So we plug the car and we have a chat.

OK, track is clear. We have a Red Bull on the line going for his second cool-down.

OK, we're good on traffic. I'll keep you posted.

So, tyres are back to baseline, so you can look at the dash. Target plus five all around.

No-one pushing behind and you've got a hard gyro ahead on a very slow cooldown.

Hadja was around two seconds slower the last couple of laps, so we don't want to get close to these guys.

Actually, if we can get by, it's even better. There's a big gap ahead of him.

We have margin on tyres.

On grip braking, turn 9, please.

No one pushing behind.

Well, this shit is good.

Offset zero. Charge of last corner.

And let's carry some speed in the last couple of corners, please.

Okay, Yuki, starting a time-lapse straight behind.

Yuki, braking turn 1, pushing Newsoft. Coming now. Yuki, 1.5.

Offset forward.

Yep. That's a little bit of traffic. 4 behind. Yeah, copy, last sector. Sorry for that. Red Bull 2 behind, pushing on that set.

Ok, double cool down.

OK, so we'll look at the data. Anything outstanding for you or difficult to say? We have Gasly six behind pushing. That's it.

Gasly 3, 2 coming now. And then we have a couple of cars 5 behind on cooldown. They're on cooldown.

OK, Sainz, 6 behind pushing.

Sainz, 4 pushing, 2 coming now. Then it's Schwarzmann, 5 pushing. Schwarzmann, 3 pushing.

OK, so the next Ferrari 2.5 behind you now.

So it's still a braking turn 6 on that lap, the main difference compared to Yuki's previous run. So we have Aja on cooldown 2 behinds and Magnussen pushing 4 behinds. Magnussen coming, now pushing.

OK, that's a hard job on his way in. No one else pushing.

OK. Are we good on time to do double cool? We are good on time but we will cancel the pit exit test.

Let's try to keep the brakes up, please, in the next turn as well.

So we have Sargeant 3 behind on Coulthard.

So, for the next lap, consider offset 1 and pull toggle turn 9 after the next cooldown.

On heads up, Yuki did a 26.8 on the soft, which is one tenth beyond Gasly on soft as well.

26.8 for Yuki.

OK, so Sargeant behind on his second cooldown as well. We are OK for traffic. So let's try to pick up a bit of speed for the brakes, please.

No one pushing behind.

OK, we have a couple of cars probably in lap. You can let them by if you want. No one pushing. All on cool down.

Ocon, that will be Sargeant on his double cooldown. You can keep the position.

So stay where you are now. Sargeant will go again. Or if you want to let him by, you have the gap behind him, but a bit of traffic now. You're fucked with all these cars.

Okay, so I'm not sure what these cars are going to do. Offset one, no one pushing behind. We wait our turn.

OK, keep the position. Piastri behind, out lap. Charge of last corner.

You can push on the in-lap. We don't need those tyres again.

I will do a pit entry test. Box, box.

Box, box, box, box. Happy to charge off last sector.

Understeer.

On back to offset one if you want to push pit entry.

There was some traffic. Yeah, I think someone wasn't looking. Yeah, that's alright. We'll scrap that entry time. No worries.

Based on the feedback I've had so far, we will go back on the change and we'll look at the numbers going forward.

So now, go ahead. I would have hit the marker for turn 7. It happened a couple laps, but yeah, I'll explain. Just a feeling on balance.

Same mode 3. Mode 14 is good, yeah. You're going very well. On offset 3.

OK, track will be clear.

We have an alpha closing the lap on the line.

OK, we have Porsche at turn 1 on cool-down.

OK, you're good where you are. You can keep the position. Push here on the slow cooldown. If he wants to go by, so be it.

Multi B1. Constant speed 2. Fifth gear.

And DRS closed.

And we have Doohan Alpine 4 behind. Outlap, new tyre.

Behind Douad, we have 8 seconds gap to Vestey. Vestey is on long run. We try to stay in front of Vestey.

Actually, same again, and then keep the position. Same again, and then stay in front of the Mercedes. He's five behind. He thought I outlapped, or he said long run? OK, cancel constant speed. Cancel constant speed. Back to position 1. He's on outlap but used tyre high fuel. He's on a used tyre high fuel.

Is there a gap behind him? Yes, yes. But we need to open a big gap and then push last corner.

Offset one. Offset one. Mode one last corner. And push the last two corners. Mode one.

OK, double cooldown. Those were the strong sector 3, but sector 1 it was half a tenth braking turn 1. Only difference where we lose time there.

Offset forward.

No one pushing behind.

We have Russell 12 behind. He's on long run.

Russell 4 behind Longren and Sargeant 4 behind Russell. Everyone high fuel now. Most people high fuel now. Sargeant 2 behind coming now.

And keep up the braking in the cooldowns please, where you can.

OK, couple of cars coming now. They are on a fast start lap. Everyone high fuel.

OK, we have Piastri 3 and then it's Yuki 11. We go for double cooldown.

And Yuki managed to find a little bit of time after the double cooldown. We will see. Yuki 2.5 pushing. Long run. Yuki coming now. And then we have a bit of fresh air, 8 seconds to Aston on a slow cooldown.

So we keep doing the same with the tyres. You're cool, don't talk to us.

We still have a good gap to the Aston on a slow cooldown. 6 seconds behind.

Do you think he'll push next lap? The Aston? So we have a Red Bull last corner closing a time lap.

Negative. I think double cooldown for Daston. Schwarzmann pushing on the line.

OK, Haas turn box. So we have a Ferrari in turn 1. OK, yeah, abort it. We have a Haas exit turn 1 and that's it. Everyone else slow cool down. Haas coming now.

OK, and then we have Vesti 3 behind on high fuel. OK, Vesti coming behind these cars. Pushing.

And we have 8 seconds gap behind Harja, but still another few cars coming on high fuel. We'll see what we get in the last sector. Manage your tyres for now and let the cars by coming if you don't want.

That's Gasly and McLaren, two behind, pushing, coming now. On same underbrakes, we try to wake them up just before turn 6, just before turn 9. OK, so behind is Hadjer and Sainz. Keep the position, they're on slow cooldown.

OK, low fuel. Confirmed, confirmed.

OK, next car pushing on high fuel is Russell, 11 behind.

So it's Russell and Sargeant, same as the previous lap. I'll keep you posted on them.

How far is Sargeant behind Russell? Five. Five seconds gap in between. We can let both by. Russell now. Russell now. Yep. Sargeant 4.5. Sargeant 3.

Okay, the next one pushing is... So now we're 6. Magnussen. So now we stay... And if you can take that position back, we take it.

Okay, nice job. Back to offset one. Charge your flask on.

Open the gap a bit more in turn 12. We have margin.

And then we push the last corner, please.

OK, good job opening here. And then push left two corners. Charge off.

I'm quick in the next box. You can't push in the front. We will change the front wing. We will do another test again. We will do a complete endurance test. We are 3 minutes to 3.30 to change the flag.

So the next round 3 we'll have some equipment, so the balance will not be all good, but we'll just gather the details, please. And we will stay out for the practice start. Box, box, pit entry test. Mode 6 in the background.

On, you can go charge off. Box, box, pit entry test. Stop on the mark for front wing change.

Ok, a bit of traffic ahead. Let's see what we can do.

Pitlane. Stop on the mark for front wing change. Wait for the green please. Wait for the guys to wave you out. We take our time.

And you just want to slow pull away? Confirmed.

OK, standard pitstop pull away once the guy waves you out, Daniel.

Is it a slow or a race? Race. So not a rubber lane, but a race pull away please.

OK, we take it easy. We just take the flag. We are 1.32 to the checkout flag.

Do you want to recharge on? Actually, let's get a bit of pace. We will take the flag. You have Bottas coming. You can let Bottas by. And then, just be mindful of the front wing equipment. Avoid kerbs, please, so it stays on there. But you can build up some speed, so we have good data.

We will take the flag that lap. We have 50 seconds to check out. You're good to go. No need for recharge.

Let's try to keep avoiding curbs, especially last sector. Thank you.

Yep, understood.

And keep the pace up so we gather more data until turn 9. We can keep the pace up. We have a yellow turn 2. Double yellow turn 2. Double yellow turn 2.

Double yellow turn 2. Follow the reference.

Okay, on 1-3-Green, to go again, we pick up the pace, thank you.

And we will have a VSC test very soon, so keep up the pace and it will be mode 12 when we get the VSC.

OK, that's mode 12. We go to the grid, please. You can take it easy now.

Multi-B 8, torque position 3.

Target too shallow. Start from the right-hand side, as far forward as you can. Two times tyre warming. First gear, click of attack, to tyre warming. Target is too shallow.

So we do the start up to turn 1 and then we will have the double yellow again turn 2.

Mode 3. Target 2 shallow. Reminder, double yellow turn 2.

OK, Daniel, double yellow tone 2 and no overtaking under VSC plus.

Let's go to charge-on. Mode 6 in the background, please.

And no overtaking, reminder, no overtaking. We can build the backup and then charge off for the last few corners for a pit entry again. Good braking, turn 9. Yep, understood.

Ok, we have Bottas a bit slow ahead. Let's see if we can get the pit entry.

So, two cars, five ahead. Bottas going slow.

Static pitstop. On switch off. Hold the brakes.

Stand by, Daniel.

Radio check. Radio check.

Yes, all good. Do you hear me? Yes, all good.

Okay, copy. Station restart in 15 minutes.

Copy.

So track temp is 42 degrees for Qualy, so quite close, 2 degrees hotter than SP. Wind direction is exactly the same as what we saw during the briefing of Qualy. OK.
