Lando Norris
12:55:02
Radio check. Yep, that is loud and clear.
12:57:35
Well, thanks for that, Loco. I don't think I have any new medium tyres. Almost all of us, apart from you, bro, have tyres for Sainz and Bottas. Sainz further back with hards on. I'll come back to you about the Williams. No, I'm fearing on them for now.
12:59:20
Switch on pitlane speed limiter.
12:59:48
Thirty seconds to go before launch.
13:00:05
Ten seconds to go.
13:00:26
B-Bal offset plus one.
13:00:31
B-Bal offset plus one.
13:00:41
B-Bal offset plus one.
13:01:34
OK, Lando, launch me back. That was on target. On target.
13:02:31
Blue B1 before the burnouts.
13:03:29
Last car approaching the grid.
13:04:13
Another overtake.
13:05:44
Suggest strat 13. Strat 13.
13:07:14
And DRS enabled.
13:11:49
A little bit of degradation, but nothing much.
13:13:20
The field spread is, as expected, very tight. Just one big queue of cars.
13:14:21
Yeah, just struggling in the final sector compared to the Ferrari.
13:14:48
Okay, Lando, understood. At the moment we're hitting plan A target. And is this racing or model?
13:15:09
I think it's my model. The tyres are crooked.
13:16:40
How's my front tyre from your perspective?
13:17:20
Lando, maybe just a tiny bit more management control.
13:17:52
Front right does feel like a fairway attack.
13:18:51
Lando, we've had our first strike. Track limit's turn 1.
13:19:20
And Lando, full safety car windows are open, please confirm. Confirm. I'm struggling a little bit.
13:19:44
I'm happy with lap 1, I think.
13:20:23
And then Russell, now the car behind, two.
13:20:51
Yeah, I'm 100%. Just don't have the pace. Okay, understood. Suggest red A3. Red A3.
13:22:21
And Lando, 100% pace please, 100% pace. Yeah, coming through.
13:23:26
Suggest silver D5, silver D5.
13:23:52
Lando suggest green F2, green F2. Alonso and Oscar are pitting.
13:24:30
Lando, we are boxed this lap. Boxed this lap.
13:24:45
Box now. Box now.
13:24:59
Brakes on when you come to a stop. This will be outlap 2, stint 2.
13:25:13
Traffic traffic. Launch map, launch map, launch map. Could be close to Oscar at the exit.
13:25:48
Suggest red A4, red A4.
13:29:11
Okay, Lando, the objective is stint 2. Plan B targeted.
13:30:18
I suggest red A3. Red A3. With Russell is Bottas who has not stopped yet. In front of him Leclerc who just pitted.
13:32:50
Russell, 1.8 ahead. He pushed pretty hard to try and get on Leclerc. Hope he'll come back to us.
13:35:09
Turn 2, turn 3 was good for the last couple of laps.
13:36:40
Suggest orange E9.
13:39:18
Ok Lando, ahead of you Leclerc 4, Russell 2, behind you is Oscar 2, Alonso behind him and Perez behind him, pushing up hard.
13:40:21
I'm going to let the other street do it again ahead.
13:40:31
Russell just did a 29.3.
13:40:48
And Leclerc did a 29.6 and suggests silver B4, silver B4.
13:42:22
Where am I losing my time? To the Mercedes.
13:42:39
Turn 5 and the final corner. Minimum speed.
13:43:20
Suggest strat 7.
13:44:07
And I have no opportunity at turn 5 and turn 16.
13:44:13
Focus on exit. Mind entrance point.
13:46:19
And Perez is now the car behind. Four seconds.
13:46:46
And Lando, for more performance, Strat 13, Strat 13, and then white H10, position 11, white H10, position 11, it's double D red.
13:47:11
And Lando, how's the pace? I have pace 0, man.
13:47:48
And Lando, suggest turn 5 do not use bottom tunnel.
13:50:48
Man, I'm just... I'm so licked with everything now.
13:50:58
Okay, understood. 100% pace. 100%.
13:51:19
How's the balance? It's in the middle, so I think it's okay.
13:51:35
Understood. We think down a half.
13:52:16
Track limit, second strike, turn 12.
13:53:20
Lando, we are box this lap. Box this lap. Strat 7, please. Strat 7.
13:53:29
Disconfirmed, yeah. I need some box.
13:53:35
Yep, box this lap, please. Box this lap.
13:53:48
Launch map on in the pitlane. It'll be outlap 2, stint 2.
13:54:01
Mop, mop, mop.
13:54:15
Could be close to Ocon at exit. Do out that one please, if you can out that one.
13:54:35
And I suggest red A4, red A4, orange E10, orange E10. Ocon does have DRS but your pace is much slower.
13:55:00
Russell is pitching this lap.
13:55:36
Russell in the tunnel.
13:56:23
If you can, strat 30.
14:00:33
Leclerc and Russell currently being held up a bit by Tsunoda.
14:00:51
Yeah, I'm not quick enough, so... It doesn't matter.
14:02:01
And Lando suggests red A3, red A3 and right toggle at turn 5, right toggle at turn 5.
14:03:30
Perez pitted on lap 17. He might try and go to the end. Gap is currently 19.1.
14:03:51
Strat 7.
14:05:03
ACS button pressed, please. Let's get Snowdon.
14:07:29
Perez has pitted. Should come out behind you.
14:07:57
And Lando, from the first inch we are not worried about the front tyres. So we can push the pace in places like 2-3. I was already pace 0 before and I'm just dying away.
14:08:19
I'm pace 0. I've got no pace. Okay, understood.
14:09:46
Perez now, the car behind. Strat 13.
14:12:46
Opportunity. Turn 5. Keep focus on exit. Mind entry speed.
14:14:10
He just crashed into me!
14:14:27
Yeah, but that's just dangerous driving. You get loads of space.
14:18:20
Strat 7.
14:19:45
And Lando, Perez has been given a five second penalty. Gap 3.2. Yeah, got it.
14:20:48
ACS button, please.
14:23:05
I suggest right-hand toggle turn 5. Right-hand toggle turn 5.
14:23:46
Five laps to go.
14:28:11
There are two laps to go. You can use strat 4 for two laps.
14:31:11
Okay, Lando, that's P5. Leave the recharge off. Please leave it off and put white H11 in position 30. White H11, position 30.
14:31:35
Yep, yep. What was my point comparing to Fernando? Where did he finish? Fernando at the moment finished 7th.
14:31:44
So, I think he just tipped us. I did?
14:31:52
Well, thank you very much. Difficult race, we just didn't have the pace today, but thanks for the whole year. You took some big steps forward, a lot of hard work. I want to thank every single one of you. And we'll keep pushing, we're getting there, we're getting there. Let's keep our heads down over the winter and let's come back stronger than ever. Thanks, boys and girls.
14:33:55
And Lando, we think we finished 6th in the drivers because Leclerc jumped us.
