OK, mate, so start from the end, please. Two burnouts if you can.

No transcript available

Okay, so aero P6 down to turn 3. Aero P6.

Gap behind 7 seconds to Tsunoda. Everyone on outlaps behind.

The tones, they sound different.

We'll check everything on our side. So after turns 6 and 7, we'll be going for a VMAX run with DRS down to turn 9, please. So maximum speed down to turn 9 with DRS and then aero P3 after that.

That's good. Aero P3, please. Aero P3.

Perfect. OK, let's box now for a front wing change. Box now for a front wing change. We can go back to tyre on the multi.

Yeah, I would be happy to revert back to the old tones.

Yeah, copy that. We'll have to have a look for the next run. Again, we're checking everything on our side. So we're stopping on the marks, please, for a front wing change.

No worries, the radio is louder as well. OK mate, copy that.

Okay, so we're going straight out. You should be clear pit exit. Just got Hamilton leaving the last corner now.

Okay, let's go recharge on. Clear track behind. 14 seconds gap to Norris.

Look at the car behind Verstappen on an outlap.

Cars in front have all completed fast laps, so they're on slow laps in front. Piastri, the first car.

In front of Piastri, Zhou, three seconds and then a nine second gap in front of him.

Good gap in front of Zhou. Go past him.

Okay, 12 second gap in front. Clear of traffic behind. First car coming through is Pierre. He's about 10 seconds behind. Back on a push lap.

Okay, so recharge off, going into fast slope fast.

You can keep pushing if you want, Esteban. You can keep pushing if you want.

Okay, watch for Zhou behind three seconds. He has just finished a time-lapse so should be on a slow. 18 seconds gap in front currently.

Okay, so Pierre did a prep lap for the first lap and his second time lap was a 22.1 for reference. But again, he did do a prep lap. Clearer traffic behind currently.

In a decent spot on track here, so we're going to push again next time.

The bouncing is quite present.

The virtual mirror, I'm not sure it's working on the previous car. I only have one showing. So Sainz is the next car behind. Agreed. That's not on your dash at the moment. He's 12 seconds behind. I don't have any timing information for him actually. 11 seconds now. Possibly on a push lap. Gap behind 9 seconds.

Yes, Sainz's beacon isn't working. We'll go recharge off and push now.

Okay, 14 second gap behind to Tsunoda. He'll be pushing this time. Clear track ahead.

How's the balance, please?

It wasn't too bad, just feel like I lost the rears a little bit in the second to last corner. Understood, Tsunoda. Because of the bouncing. Copy that, Tsunoda five seconds behind timed lap clear behind him.

Okay, clear track behind 10 seconds to Piastri. At the moment he's on slow lap.

Okay, so Piastri could be boxing behind. He's keeping his pace up on a slow lap. Five seconds now and then there's a seven second gap behind him to Zhou.

Three seconds to Piastri.

If we could go diff exit 2, Esteban.

Clear of traffic behind shift exit 2.

OK, let's push.

Okay, clear from traffic behind. So, P11 with that time at the moment. Most cars are on the medium, there's a couple of soft runners at the front.

I was balanced that time. Watch for Zhou behind, please. His GPS location doesn't look to be accurate, so keep your eye on your mirrors. I think he's on a slow lap.

A bit of understeer into turn 10, I think, after the high speed. Mid-corner, otherwise it was not too bad. Understood. Yeah, we are turning into a bit of a headwind through 10 there.

Okay, so Zhou, slow lap, seven seconds behind I believe. We're in a completely clear part of the track. Everyone else is around turn 1 and 2 now.

Zhou three seconds behind. Again, slow lap.

How are the tyres holding up, do you think?

Okay. Okay, that's good. Let's go for a slow... Oh, finish this lap and then another push, please. We'll see where we are. Should get another slow fast in after this one as well.

Okay, watch for Stroll starting a time lap now. Four seconds behind. Can we go recharge off until turn 6, please? Recharge off until turn 6.

Stroll coming through now.

Next car back Sainz. Seven seconds time lap. P9 with that time so far.

Sainz, four seconds.

Clear behind signs.

Lando behind outlap. We'll go recharge on at turn 6, please. And we'll go for one more push after this.

OK, so next car back is Albon. He's on a time lap now, seven seconds. We're going to push next lap with DRS and then go straight into a second push lap without DRS after that.

Albon, four seconds. Big gap behind him, no one else pushing.

11. Second gap behind to Bottas on a slow lap.

Recharge off.

Keep pushing, no DRS. Keep pushing, no DRS.

OK, recharge on. Watch for Fernando starting a time lap three seconds behind.

Okay, so Fernando timed lap behind.

OK, next car behind is Stroll on a slow lap. OK, so we're going to box at the end of this lap.

So after turn 10, can we have aero P4, please? Aero P4 after turn 10. That's 5th gear, 200kph.

Stroll behind. Slow lap. No other traffic.

Stroll three seconds behind slow lap. We are boxing now. Come in, stop on the marks and switch off.

Stop on the box and switch off.

Time-lap. Tsunoda starting a time-lap at exit turn 14. Correction, Tsunoda going slow behind, so in sync with the cars around us.

No transcript available

6 second gap in front of Zhou to Sargeant on an outlap in sync with everyone around us. Gap in front, 8 seconds to Piastri, he'll be pushing next time. No traffic behind us.

Okay, so brake 3, close modifier off. Four cars to go in front.

Subtitling by SUBS Hamburg

Two cars to go in front. No traffic behind, just need recharge off and then we're good to go.

Recharge off.

Diff entry 3. Diff entry 3. It's in 5 currently.

Yeah, that's box, flat, but DRS is away. Okay, understood. Happy to do that now.

Understood. Box now for a flap adjust.

Okay, just watch for Magnussen behind coming through. Correction, Magnussen slow lap. Clear of traffic behind. Let's box now. One turn up on the front wing.

Okay, so stopping on the marks, one turn up on the front wing and then go on the lights.

Okay, I might have a bit of traffic pit exit.

Did I flick the entry switch in the lap or what? Yeah, so we're seeing diff entry 5 now still. Watch for Ricciardo. So it's entry 3 now.

Okay, watch for Perez as well. Time lap now. Understood. If the switch is in the right position, we're happy. Yeah, distract the rotary.

What do we do? Standby, please.

Okay, so Perez behind slow lap, Pierre behind him, slow lap.

Esteban, I suggest we try and make the best of what we've got here. Let's drop diff mid down slightly please. Let's go down to diff mid 3. This is going to be about one more step locked on diff entry than expected. I'll perhaps explain the little bit of extra front wing. Let's go for a fast slow fast please. There's about four cars in front to start laps. Clear of traffic behind.

Okay, two cars to go in front. Recharge off and push when you're ready.

Red flag, red flag, red flag.

Yeah, I've got a lot of understeer now in traffic and all that shit. Yeah, copy that, mate. Okay, so we'll be stopping on the marks and switching off.

Yeah, we have to go again now. Yeah, that's what I'm going to try and do, Esteban. We'll get some comments when you're plugged in. There's a few things that we're going to sort before we go out again.

No transcript available

Cool, so I'll try and make the early laps count. Count 20 seconds.

10 seconds.

Five seconds. Tyre temps are good.

No transcript available

Okay, so front temp's a little lower than the rear, so we can focus on boosting those up as best we can.

Some cars leaving the pitlane now.

I think we should be okay for traffic this lap.

So, brake 3, close modifier. Brake 3, close modifier. And we can push the last sector hill with fronts. Just be steady on throttle.

Hand full of cars leaving the pit. Exit now. Leaving the pit now. Recharge off and go. Recharge off and go.

OK, let's push.

OK, recharge. I'm going to have some car starting laps this time. Russell the first, four seconds behind.

Russell two and a half and then Perez five seconds behind him. These guys are pushing now.

Perez, four seconds timed lap and then a five second gap behind him to Leclerc.

Okay, Leclerc, low fuel, pushing four and a half seconds.

Leclerc, two seconds and then Norris, six seconds behind me.

Norris, time lap.

Ramirez could be high fuel running. He's three seconds behind.

Norris, two seconds. When he comes past, I'd like to leave a decent gap to him in case he is high fuel running, lapping in the 24s last lap.

Okay, only car that might get near us is Sargeant. He is high fuel running. I want to stay in front of him if we can. Sargeant about eight seconds behind high fuel.

Sargeant, six seconds, high fuel.

Gap in front six seconds as well. Gap behind four and a half.

I just need to recharge off. Let's go.

OK, mate, we've got time for slow fast. Time for slow fast. Two minutes 50 till the chequered flag. Yeah, the grip is coming better now. Yeah, OK, that's good. Let's get this last lap in at the end of the session. We've got Sgt High Fuel four and a half behind.

There's plenty of time, no rush. Sergeant, three seconds.

Gap behind Sargeant to Tsunoda. Five seconds. Tsunoda high fuel as well.

Tsunoda, three and a half.

Tsunoda, two seconds, and then behind him, Piastri, high fuel, four seconds.

Piastri 2.5 behind him. Six seconds to stroll. High fuel. Might be a little bit tricky this time to get a gap. We'll just have to slot in as best we can.

Stroll six seconds.

It might be best to stay in front of Stroll, possibly, if we can. This is probably the biggest gap we're in now.

So Stroll three and a half, we can drop back to in front of him as best we can. Start the next lap.

Stroll three seconds.

Stroll two and a half. Just need recharge off. Can drop back into two seconds gap.

OK, let's push, let's feel the balance.

OK, checkered flag there.

Okay mate, so we are going to the grid now to do a start. Okay mate, very compromised run there obviously, so hopefully we've got a bit of a feel for the balance anyway.

Yeah, but, yeah, I don't think it's the run. I think, yeah, it's a bit weird. What happened that run? But turn 3 braking, it was much more rear locking and rear movement entry. OK mate, understood. Plenty for us to look through.

Okay, so let's focus on the start now so we can cool the tyres down on the way there. We've got a couple of switch changes to do. Can we go to scenario 3, please? Scenario 3.

And we have a fail to do. It's fail B-5-F. Fail B-5-F. It's about 16 presses on the right and then we'll just need the OK button.

Perfect, thank you very much for that.

Okay Esteban, so we're going onto the grid now to do a start. It'll be on the left-hand side and we'd like three burnouts please. To the grid, start on the left, three burnouts and then we're pushing to pit entry.

Which scenario? That's okay? Scenario 3, please. Yes, you're there already.

All happy with switches.

OK, box now. Practice pitstop. Attack the pit entry.

7-1-1. OK, no launch, no launch.

Okay, so we're going to do a practice pitstop with the other car as well, so you can switch off.

Correction, we're not going to do that. We'll get you back in the garage shortly.
