Ok Valtteri, the formation at pull away was plus five to what we want. And you can do three burnouts. Three. Copy.

Mode RS. Let's have a good race.

Contact turn 1 with my front wing, left side. Copy, copy, we are checking.

Okay Valtteri, that was Hulkenberg and Gasly is the next car ahead. Two seconds. How does the car feel? Question.

Hard to say yet from the first quarter, so I think we're up. Copy, keep pushing.

Gap to Gasly ahead 1.5 seconds.

DRS enabled.

OK to use overtake.

We're stuck here in the train. Hey, this feels good. Copy that, copy.

Car ahead still Gasly and it's Stroll behind you now.

Yes, completely stuck here. Yeah, like I said, still feels really good. Copy that, Valtteri. Copy.

The front brakes are feeling a bit funny. OK, copy. We'll have a look.

I think we need some free air. Yeah, copy, copy. We're monitoring the situation.

Suggest rearwards brake balance further for turn 8, turn 10 only.

Sock 6. Sock 6.

Okay, Valtteri, keep pushing for now. Keep pushing. We've pitted to the other car.

Let's close up this office.

Gasly, 1.5 ahead.

Sock 5. Sock 5. Try to close the gap.

OK, Valtteri, are you happy with default adjust? Yes.

That's Leclerc behind you and we will box this lap. Box, box. Copy.

Mode RS.

Sock 6 for overtake usage.

Car ahead is Gasly and overtake is available.

Next car ahead, Hulkenberg, three seconds.

Gasly behind. Still has DRS for you. Hulkenberg now two seconds ahead. How far? How far behind? Gasly, 0.7 behind.

Gasly, 0.6 behind.

SoC 7, Gasly 0.9 behind.

Gasly 0.9 behind, Hulkenberg 1.6 ahead.

Gasly, 0.7 behind. Hulkenberg, 1.2 ahead.

Gasly, 0.5 behind. You're 1.10 from DRS Hulkenberg.

That's still one tenth to DRS from Hulkenberg. It's very close now.

Gasly with DRS but one second behind. We need some management in turn 12.

Gasly, 0.7 behind. Next car ahead, Ocon and Ricciardo fighting. Four seconds.

Suggest diff entry plus one. Target lap time 37.7.

Hock on my head now. Three seconds.

Ocon now 2.5 ahead.

Sock 5. Sock 5.

Ocon now two seconds ahead and more management turn 12.

Still two seconds to Ocon ahead.

Suggest diff entry plus one.

That's 1.5 to Ocon ahead now.

Roger. Let's go back to SoC 6. SoC 6.

Multi A, pedal 9, pedal 9.

And Valtteri, how is the balance on these tyres? Question.

Okay Valtteri, no more managements, no more managements. For the next one, front swing question. Minus one. Copy, copy.

Okay Valtteri, we will go this lap, so box, box. Box.

Mode RS.

Okay Valtteri, I have a problem with the wheel nuts. Stand by. Yep.

The engine temp is 1.36. Yep, 1.36.

Okay Valtteri, you'll be clear on pit exit. We need to cool the engine now.

Mode race, mode race. First car behind is Tsunoda, 7 seconds. Try to cool the engine as much as you can. Russell ahead.

OK, Valtteri. Temperatures seem OK again. OK to push.

Okay Valtteri, that is 25 laps to go.

And LG suggest diff entry plus one again.

OK, Valtteri, that was Norris that came out of the pits. We are now one lap down to Norris. He's 1.5 behind.

Nice, still 1.2 behind.

Norris still 1.2 behind.

That's Leclerc ahead.

OK, Norris now one behind you. We'll get blue flags for Norris.

Next car behind is Hamilton. Still four seconds.

Driver default. Bravo 22 on. Bravo 22.

Hamilton now two seconds behind.

Hamilton at 1.3 behind.

And that's Blue Flag Hamilton.

Car behind is Piastri, 2.5.

Piastri 1.1 behind. Blue flag will be soon.

Okay, Piastri has DRS for you. And oil button. Oil button.

Alonso, two seconds ahead, is a lap ahead of us but lapping slowly on old tyres now.

Suggest EB4.

Alonso 1.7 ahead and no more tyre management.

15 laps to go. 15.

OK, Valtteri, that's 13 laps to go. Keep us posted on how the tyres feel. Zhou is in a fight for points. Any feedback you can give could help him.

Yeah, for me, tyres are good. Only place I worry too much is a little bit is turn 12. Just tiny bit. And also turn 6 slightly. But otherwise, pretty full push.

OK. Copy. Clear. What sort of pace is he doing?

Zhou is now in 36.7.

Eight laps to go. Eight laps. How are the tyres? Question.

Yes, still OK. OK, copy.

Six laps to go. Six.

That's five laps to go and SOC 5.

We now have Alonso two seconds behind. He's lapping in 35.0.

Full obstacle.

Alonso now 1.3 behind. We will get blue flags for Alonso soon.

Three laps to go. Three.

That's two laps to go. We can go to Sock 4.

Sock 3. Sock 3. Last lap.

OK, Valtteri, over the line, mode end, mode end.

That was a difficult race for us today. P19 in the end. You had a good start though and the race pace actually looks quite strong. It's better than quali, so there's something to be optimistic about and we go again in one week. Yeah, tough luck.

In the end, Zhou finished in P11. Not quite enough pace to catch up with the Astons.

And, Valtteri, for your info, we have Verstappen winning the race from Perez and Sainz, then Leclerc, Russell, Norris, Hamilton, Piastri, and then Alonso, Stroll, running out the top ten.

So, box, box.

When you stop the car, we need the full switch-off procedure. Copy.
