B-Bal offset plus one.

17:14:24

So safety car window is open. Fernando, safety car window is open.

17:14:29

OK, so Lance is in the wall, turn 22-23. Slow down, get your delta positive. Copy.

17:14:51

So Lance clipped the wall with the apex of 22 and then went off, so I don't think there's too much debris. It's just broken the suspension.

17:15:01

3 maybe more aero balance. What do you think? Yeah, we agree, yeah.

17:15:16

Stay on the left through 23.

17:15:25

So, at the pit entry, make sure you're very close to your zero on the delta, just positive.

17:15:32

And run switch back to race, please. Run switch back to race.

17:15:50

So you want to be just positive on delta at 7.1.

17:16:17

Oh, I nearly crashed with the reverb. So close.

17:16:22

Just close on Hulkenberg, pick an exit. Should be OK. Just keep an eye on your delta now.

17:16:34

You can go back to cool on the run if it's cool.

17:16:49

Yeah, I had to lock all four tyres, I think. Yeah, copy. Understood. We've recorded it.

17:17:35

Okay, a bit more weaving where you can to build up your tyre temps. And you can put a bit more brake temp in.

17:17:44

So there is a recovery vehicle on track at 22.23 and there's double wave yellow delta there so the delta will change, just make sure you stay positive.

17:17:59

HPP bunt on. This is the double-way viaduct section.

17:18:35

I think probably one-click rearward for the restart. Try and put as much French front tyre temp as you can.

17:18:57

So, you've got Hulkenberg and then two cars back is Zhou who didn't stop and ahead of you got Norris and Hamilton who didn't stop.

17:19:06

So Norris P1, Hamilton P3 at the moment. Verstappen in between them. Then Perez, Leclerc, Piastri, you. Behind you is Hulkenberg who didn't stop.

17:19:30

So you can ignore the delta.

17:20:10

So keep working on your tyre temp as you can. A bit more braking, there's a grip.

17:20:34

So, Sotica is in this lap. Sotica is in this lap.

17:20:40

Consider one-click rear on brake balance just to get through the cold tyres.

17:20:45

And it will be run, switch, race.

17:20:51

Norris is still right behind the safety car. He's now letting the safety car go.

17:21:12

Sainz is exiting 27 now.

17:21:16

Run, switch, race. Run, switch, race now.

17:21:25

Safety car is in the pitlane.

17:23:13

Piastri 0.9, Hulkenberg 0.6.

17:24:02

Probably go click forwards on brake balance. Could be DRS this time.

17:27:39

Just consider high-speed diff, maybe up a couple, high-speed diff.

17:27:56

So Piastri's 2 ahead of Hulkenberg 1.5, but Russell is putting pressure on Hulkenberg.

17:29:14

Russell is the car behind 1.4.

17:29:23

Yeah, any chance of plan B because, I mean, they are in another league.

17:31:05

Perez ahead has got a five second penalty for that pit release. Perez has got a five second penalty.

17:44:42

So, Fernando, Russell's been told to push for the last few laps. He's been trying to push and not get onto you, but you're doing well.

17:44:58

At this point, the safety car windows are closed.

17:45:03

Would you take the medium back on or stay where you are? Are these tyres feeling OK?

17:45:09

Yeah, I mean, very low grip, man. Let's see. Yep, copy.

17:45:58

How is the race unfolding behind us? A lot of hassle. It's all tight.

17:46:16

So, obviously Norris and Hamilton still need to stop. If they get a safety car now, Norris would probably be just on top of you.

17:46:31

And it turns behind Russell. You've got Biermann eight seconds behind you. Same strategy as us, same stop as us. That's Biermann eight seconds back from you.

17:46:49

And Biermann's in completely free air and he's the same pace as us. Same pace.

17:48:18

Plan B is out of the question.

17:49:41

Plan B is a no at the moment. Plan B is a no.

17:49:57

Copy. Any suggestions?

17:50:02

Click forward and brake balance. One click forward, brake balance.

17:54:38

Just to check, if we went to a medium, would you take any more aerobalance than what you've got now?

17:54:47

Yes, another point four maybe.

17:54:53

Hopefully we don't do that.

18:00:34

We're starting to see the same diff behaviour as Bahrain, so we suggest entry 8.

18:00:52

15 laps to the end. 16, 16.

18:02:15

Little kiss to the wall in turn 9, but all OK. All good. Copy that. Understood.

18:02:26

We're watching everything. It all looks OK.

18:02:38

Yep, that's going to be a close game. Copy that, coming.

18:03:58

Hamilton ahead is boxed. He will go soft and he'll come out about 15 seconds behind us.

18:04:16

Minnisto overtakes few cars now.

18:04:35

Yeah, Hamilton has to pass Behrmann and Russell.

18:05:31

OK, so Norris is pitted. He'll come out ahead of Hamilton. Hamilton is 15 seconds behind you. Norris maybe 12 when he comes out. He'll have to pass Biermann.

18:06:29

How many laps? 12 at the end of this one. Norris 13 seconds back.

18:08:02

Norris is still 13 seconds back. He's having a bit of a fight with Hamilton.

18:08:28

Copy. Give me the countdown of the laps. I'm on qualifying mode now.

18:08:38

Copy, mate. Copy. Eleven laps to go. Eleven.

18:11:08

So Norris is still 11 and a half seconds back. There'll be nine laps to go at the end of this one.

18:11:43

Nine laps to go, nine laps to go.

18:12:59

Russell's only 1.0. Consider a bit of energy.

18:13:15

So it's 8 laps to go, 8 laps to go. Still got 11 seconds to Norris, so we're fine for Norris. It's just about Russell.

18:14:49

Seven more laps, seven more laps.

18:16:11

Norris, Hamilton, OK?

18:16:18

Yeah, all OK. They're not catching Norris. He's still 11 seconds back.

18:16:23

Same pace as us. All good. Six to go. Six laps.

18:19:27

Four more laps. Four more laps.

18:20:04

Copy. All good here. Copy.

18:20:57

Three more laps, three more laps. Norris still ten seconds back. Just watch Russell.

18:22:29

You go to strat 10. Strat 10. Two more laps. Two more laps.

18:24:03

One more lap. One more lap. You can go to strat 9 if you want.

18:25:17

Russell has dropped back behind us, so no risks in the last corner.

18:25:29

It's too late to say no risk. Well done, mate. Perfect drive. P5. Take lots of pick-up on the way in, lots of pick-up.

18:25:55

MFB blue, P12. MFB blue, P12.

18:26:32

Norris is probably going to push through you now as he's coming past you.

18:28:14

Take the last bits of pickup.

18:29:34

And P0, please.
