Esteban Ocon
04:57:54
OK, mate. Two minutes 30.
04:58:05
Okay, so we've got a handful of other cars already fired up and are joining behind us. We're in a good spot here. Two minutes 10 until green light. Can we go to brake 5, please? Other than that, switches are all good.
04:58:52
OK, one minute thirty.
04:59:21
And one minute.
04:59:48
Goes around 35 seconds. We would like to stick with the same out-and-prep procedures, even though we've been waiting at the end a little while. I'm not trying to bring everything up to tyre that will help braking at the turn.
05:00:07
So, 15 seconds.
05:00:19
Five seconds.
05:00:34
Okay, so Albon in front in P3 didn't do a prep lap. I'd expect it to pull away from us. The Haas cars that are behind us did do preps, so I'd expect them to do the same.
05:01:04

05:01:10
Okay, so we'd like to introduce more energy to the front tyres. They've cooled down just a little more than we expected.
05:01:24
Let's introduce a little bit of weaving down to turn 9, please.
05:01:44
Okay, going into a prep lap from here.
05:01:58
Recharge off, down to turn 3.
05:02:10
Got Stroll just leaving the pitlane now.
05:02:27
No traffic behind this car in front. Perez outlap.
05:02:38
Okay mate, so we're going to put a bit more energy in here, so max end of straight speeds as best you can.
05:02:52
Gap in front 10 seconds, so I can afford to keep pace up.
05:03:11
Brake 3. Let's hold this position if we can.
05:03:16
Got a 12 second gap in front.
05:03:27
OK, let's go now. Hulkenberg five seconds behind pushing. Let's go now.
05:05:07
Okay, let's box now. Box now. Yeah, see that? Let's box now. Okay, so watch for Piastri. Time lap behind.
05:05:15
Okay, let's go. Diff high speed 14, please. And box now. Diff high speed 14 and box. Watch for cars behind. Pierre coming through, finished a time lap. Next car, Albon. Albon, fast lap now.
05:05:36
OK, mate. Next car, Stroll, timed lap.
05:05:44
Stroll 1.5. And then next car, Hulkenberg. Hulkenberg timed 5 seconds. Correction, 2 seconds now. 8 seconds gap behind him to Albon on a timed also. Correction, Albon slow lap.
05:06:09
Okay, Albon just coming past now and then Magnussen, the car behind. Timed lap, five seconds and a big gap behind Magnussen.
05:06:23
Recharge on, please Esteban. Recharge on.
05:06:30
Okay, so we've still got time. Russell on an outlap, six seconds behind.
05:06:43
Russell, two seconds, out flat.
05:06:53
Hamilton, outlap six seconds.
05:07:01
10 second gap behind Hamilton. He's just coming past now. Car's behind on outlaps at the moment.
05:07:15
OK, mate, so we'll just need to watch for the weighbridge last away and hopefully they realise you've got an issue. We've still got time, we're OK. We can't go on the weighbridge, we're going to break control. Yeah, I know, let's just keep an eye out for it. OK, box now, box now.
05:07:50
Ok mate, we're going to get this turned around and ready to go. Ok mate, any balance comments? Would you like anything on the front wing? I don't think so, no. Ok mate, understood.
05:09:57
No transcript available
05:10:42
Okay, so that extra turn around time has used up a bit of our margin, so it's going to be tighter, but we're okay at the moment.
05:11:02
Okay, so we're going to go recharge off turn 13 to turn 3.
05:11:11
Perez stays out. He's staying on another cool-up. Most likely he did double cool before. Recharge off.
05:11:45
Recharge on. OK, mate, so exactly the same as before. Can build up some pace from turn 8 now. Clear track behind.
05:12:14
We're on time with about a 20 second margin here, so all looking good.
05:12:25
Okay, let's go, P3.
05:12:31
Okay, clear track in front. Let's go recharge off at 13 and go.
05:12:55
OK, mate, let's push.
05:14:22
Okay, so double cool now, just staying negative on that delta.
05:14:31
Ok mate, so Pierre's first lap on this run, he's just 8 seconds up the road, 17.98, 17.98. How was the balance, please? Yeah, wasn't particularly good, the grip. Ok mate, understood.
05:14:48
OK, let's think about a second lap.
05:14:54
So we're staying just negative on the delta. We've got plenty of time.
05:15:03
So we've got a lot of cars queuing at the pit exit now.
05:15:19
We have roughly 30 seconds margin. We've got plenty of time.
05:15:39
OK, so second cool-up.
05:15:42
What was the losses? Just checking that main loss. Braking for turn 3. That was the single biggest one. Any more details?
05:15:55
Okay, a little bit braking to turn 1 as well. Pierre also got a very good tow down to turn 9 by the looks of it. Gap in front 6 seconds, so we're in a good spot here, going in front of Tsunoda.
05:16:07
OK, so all cars need to be pushing this time. Margin about 30 seconds roughly.
05:16:20
No traffic behind. We're in a good spot here.
05:16:32
Ok, so car's reasonably well spaced in front. 8 seconds to Tsunoda, then another 6 seconds to Pierre. We need to try and push the front tyres sector 3 if we can, just to boost those surface temperatures just on the fronts.
05:17:00
OK, we've got plenty of time. Carl's behind on out laps.
05:17:12
Okay, my switch is all set. We just need recharge off at 13. Let's push those fronts a little and we're good to go.
05:18:55
OK, recharge on. That is the chequered flag.
05:19:04
OK, we are through there in P15 as it stands. Are you joking? No!
05:19:15
Amazing! Feels like a bit of a victory that. Well done from the guys. Yeah, we hadn't thought this far ahead, so we've got to work out what to do now. Okay, let's box now then, please, box now. Have a think about balance on the way. We see a little bit of aero performance loss from the front wing on the left-hand side, which I guess may come as a result of that puncture. The front wing, you said, not the rear? Yes, it's the front. It's not rear loss. There's no rear loss that we see. But say the wing. Keep the aero balance the same. Standby, please, on that one. So let's box now, please. Watch for the weighbridge on the way in.
05:20:23
Esteban in. I can make a loop.
05:20:28
Okay, so we'll be stopping on the marks and switching off. I'll explain the plan back in the garage.
05:25:24
No transcript available
05:25:28
And straight out. So out fast on that one, eh? Exactly right. Out, push and then back in. So Sainz in front, Verstappen and then Leclerc behind.
05:25:55
OK, brake 5, please, and recharge off. Brake 5 and recharge off.
05:26:13
And we need to focus on warming the front tyres, Esteban. Front tyres are the main axle pickup.
05:26:46
Okay, let's go brake 3.
05:26:55
Gap in front four and a half seconds.
05:27:01
Some cars leaving the pitlane now. Let's go recharge off and push.
05:28:37
Ok, recharge on and box this lap. Recharge on and box this lap. Copy, no grip on that one. Yeah, copy that.
05:28:55
So this is just a quick warm-up lap. Gives us an opportunity to check everything over as well. So we're boxing now and we're doing a pit stop onto the next set of tyres. We have Hamilton nine seconds behind timed lap. Do I need to pull down in lap? No, just stay negative on the delta. We're good for timed.
05:29:18
Esteban, would you like a flap adjust at the pitstop? No, check the front wing. Copy that, will do. Hamilton, five seconds time lap, eight seconds behind him.
05:29:43
Okay, Esteban, so we are boxing now and we are doing a tyre change in the pitlane, okay? Box now, tyre change in the pitlane.
05:29:59
OK, so we are boxing now.
05:30:04
Vapour. Vapour. Vapour.
05:30:21
Okay, mate, so we are going to see what this does for us for timing. We're still going to do the pitstop and then send the car, so procedures as normal.
05:30:48
OK, so answer, we're doing this pitstop and we're going straight out.
05:31:00
OK, so we're going to go brake 5. We just need to watch for a couple of cars that will be at pit exit. We have Perez leaving the last corner. Correction, we've got Bottas behind 4 seconds. Could be on a time-lap now. Bottas just finishing a time-lap. OK, mate, so we're still on plan at the moment. So we're going to do prep fast, slow, slow, fast.
05:31:29
Just to confirm, Esteban, we're happy with front wing performance. We're very happy with what we see.
05:31:57
OK, so we're going to keep this lap the same in terms of preparation. We'll adjust the second lap if we need to do anything. Front tyres are perhaps a couple of degrees down.
05:32:09
Every time we go into quarry, I got vibration in the outlap.
05:32:15
OK, mate, understood. We'll have a look. OK, so we're going into a prep lap from here.
05:32:33
OK, so we have about 30 seconds margin at the moment going into a prep lap. Let's go recharge off down to turn 3, please.
05:33:09
OK, mate, so happy to push a little from 8. Tire temp's coming up nicely. 20 seconds out there, mate.
05:33:28
OK, so we can just push those front temperatures up a little. Big gap in front, 22 seconds. We can push front surface temps up sector 3.
05:33:46
OK, mate. Brake 3, please brake 3. Clear track ahead.
05:34:03
I'm good to go.
05:35:37
And recharge on. Okay, so we're going into double cool now. We need to stay just negative on the delta. That's going to help us with time as well, so stay just negative on the delta.
05:35:50
And we can go brake 5 as well.
05:35:56
Next lap time is well. Yeah, just got to say, so Bottas so far, the next car up the road in P14, he's done a 17.7.
05:36:11
And then 17.6 Magnussen position in front of him.
05:36:20
Both of those cars are used tyres at the moment. So car behind Fernando, 8 seconds, timed lap. And then a 20 second gap behind him. So Fernando, 6 seconds, now timed.
05:36:41
Fernando, three and a half seconds. Clear behind him.
05:37:00
Okay, we've got a lot of cars just going towards the pit exit now. Some cars queuing there, so we're going into our second cool lap. Let's go recharge off now.
05:37:15
And then recharge on at turn 3.
05:37:36
Okay, so we want to make sure the front tyre temps don't drop too much so we can afford to push sector 3 a little after turn 8 as well. Cars in front of Bottas on an outlap.
05:37:48
Clear from all traffic behind currently.
05:37:54
Everyone around us on slow laps.
05:37:58
Might be a little bit of fighting for position up front and we're in no rush for time here.
05:38:12
If we want to drop back now slightly so we can push through the last sector just to help the front, that would be good. Again, we've got plenty of margin on the dash.
05:38:24
Three cars to go in front, they're all together.
05:38:29
Clear of traffic behind. Gap in front 8 seconds. Two cars to go.
05:38:38
Brake 3. Brake 3.
05:38:48
Recharge off and push.
05:38:59
Go mate, everything you've got, let's push.
05:40:24
OK, mate, so... Everyone has got the chequered flag now. That is P15 for us then.
05:40:38
OK mate, well done.
05:40:42
We're getting there. Little steps.
05:40:47
Okay, so Magnussen car in front 17.42, so a couple of tenths. Okay, yeah, copy that.
05:41:00
Right, let's try again tomorrow.
05:41:06
Normally in that procedure space, watch for the white bridge lights on the way and stopping outside in front of the garage. Keep negative on that delta as ever.
05:41:42
Okay, and box now. And stop outside the front of the garage.
05:42:22
OK, well done. Let's see what we can do from there tomorrow. Just a reminder, we need to go through the pitlane to get weighed as well.
