17:58:19
Three standard burnouts, so three standard burnouts.
17:58:29
Bitepoint find and practice start at the end of the pitlane.
17:58:45
There's quite a bit of traffic coming out of the final corner now.
17:58:55
Lewis car behind. Four and a half, five seconds.
17:59:05
Low fuel or high fuel? Same as you. Everyone's on the high fuel long running. Do you want me to back off?
17:59:22
It's pretty bad. So if we let Lewis through and then we'll find a gap behind.
17:59:38
Clutch position was shallow.
17:59:43
What's the gap behind, Lewis? It's five seconds to Valtteri, so we can use that up.
17:59:59
Let's see if we just keep dropping back.
18:01:09
So Lewis currently 34.6.
18:03:19
And, George, if we box this lap, come through the pitlane, we'll drop out in a nice gap behind Verstappen. He's going to tell me what to do. Box, box, stop on your marks, and then go again.
18:03:35
So box, box, practice, stop on your marks, hold for three seconds and then go again.
18:03:58
So it'll be straight on the outlap.
18:04:07
So if we push on this outlap, we'll be just ahead of Verstappen and a good gap.
18:04:13
That's good, so 7 ahead to Hulk, 4 behind to Verstappen.
18:04:35
And we're likely to see a few D rates with this mode change.
18:06:26
We're in right foot pole.
18:07:08
I made a really weak run at the last corner.
18:07:25
So I suggest start introducing lift and coast.
18:08:40
So we'll stay in strat 8.
18:08:46
8. Verstappen behind doing 34.1. Lewis has boxed with an issue. 34.5 was his final lap.
18:09:00
Sainz on the same tyre doing 34.5 as well.
18:10:22
So that's chequered flag. Always get to formation lap style driving.
18:10:32
So you're the first car to take the flag.
18:11:51
Suspensions are getting a bit low.
18:12:33
So, coasting down on exit of turn 27.
18:12:54
And then we're going to have three long burnouts at left-hand side.
18:14:24
Clutch was shallow.
18:15:15
Box, box, practice pitstop and switch off.
