Last corner. You want me to check it? Yeah, understood. We'll check it. Watch for Russell. 3 behind. We are checking it. Russell 2. He's the only pushing car.

OK, Russell 1.

Ok, now you're ok.

We're doing good on time. Plenty of time. Anyway, the lap was 0.6 quicker than Kevin's. Good lap. It was so annoying. It's bullshit. It's alright, man. You're going to do it again. We're going to get a good lap in. OK, so we'll box now. You're OK behind. Everyone's boxing.

Box now. Nico, box now. Watch way. Bridge lights.

Okay, you're clear ahead and then there's Hamilton behind. Everyone's behind.

There's about 16 cars on track now, so still the last few are leaving pitlane now.

Last car that's still streaming out, so there's a lot of cars at the pit 1, turn 1, pit exit.

In terms of gap, you're all clear ahead. Brakes are good. Tyres are good.

OK, all good. Remember, mode push, mode push.

OK, press in button. First pushing is Kevin, 15 behind. Nice lap.

Okay, in button, press in button. Leclerc's in sync. First, we have no one pushing behind right now.

We're a bit under pressure now in the turn around. We want to leave the front.

No, we're good on timing. Plenty of time. Still 8 minutes to go.

It's very tight. Your used lap is just 0.1 out of P10, so it's okay.

You see that twitch in 13 there? I think that's the EV that we're going to use tyre. Yeah, we'll see it. Normally you don't get it in 13 because you lift it out a little more. So we'll take a look.

Yeah, fair enough.

Okay, box now. Nico, box now. Watch way, bridge lights.

My lap got deleted again, or what? Yeah, deleted. Turn 6.

Unbelievable. There must be a bee stick of wind.

OK, we're in the first car. All the other cars are coming. Ricardo behind.

Okay, the last couple of cars are joining the queue now, so it's going to be a bit like last lap, but you got through it well, so it's going to be good. All okay ahead.

OK, brakes are good, tyres are good.

Okay, reset big adjuster. Remember, mode push, mode push.

OK, press in button. Good lap. Box now, Nico. Right now, big gap behind 14 seconds to Perez.

First pushing is still Perez 11 behind.

Perez still 8 behind, Piastri 16.

Perez 6.

Where's Perez? I think he aborted. He's still 4 behind, but I think he's backed out. So, Piastri is 7 behind. Well, let me know. He's aborted. He's aborted. Perez is... Piastri is 5 behind. Piastri is still pushing 6 behind, so we'll box and watch Weybridge. Piastri, 6 behind, pushing.

Okay, box now. Watch way-bridge lights.

And Nico, you're through. You're through.

You said it, didn't you? Holy cow!

Yeah, good job. What do you think? Use new again? Just get a palate cleanser?

Yeah, I guess. I mean, it wasn't also that far off, was it? So, probably not bad to have a banker. Yep, sounds good.

10 seconds.

3... 4... 5... Gap is 5.56.

First car behind is Tsunoda, six behind him.

Verstappen, eight ahead.

Verstappen 8 ahead.

Ok, now Tsunoda is behind in sync. Box end of this lap. It was a good used lap. I need from Mike if the EV did what I wanted. If that went in or not. Yeah, we'll check now.

It didn't go in, did not go in, so we'll talk through how to achieve it.

I just need to know from where they go in. Yeah, copy that.

So box now, Nico, box now. Watch waybridge lights. It didn't work in the last corner. You did not get extra EV in the last corner. Watch waybridge lights.

OK, that's what I thought.

So Mike, I ended the lap in the last corner in EP3, correct? Yes, correct.

I think that's okay anyway. It's fine.

Or try to tell me.

I still have four minutes to get around. We're good on time, Nico. I'll tell you the gap.

Ok, so Tsunoda ahead, Perez behind.

Gap to Tsunoda 1.5 but Verstappen still going slow ahead of him.

Okay, Leclerc's gone. Verstappen's making a gap.

First pushing car is in turn 6. OK, Verstappen's gone. Gap to Tsunoda is 2.

2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 5, 5.5, 6, 6.5.

First pushing car, turn 9.

First pushing car, Norris, is 35 behind, so he shouldn't be an issue. Tsunoda 6 ahead and Verstappen 15 ahead.

It's a slow road, I shouldn't have to back up much.

Gap to Tsunoda is still 6 and he still has a good gap ahead of him and we're OK behind. Gap to Tsunoda is 7. 8.

Gap is still 8, Tsunoda should be going.
