To Leclerc: |
Some rain reported on the last corner. |
Leclerc: |
(Leclerc hits the wall while trying to pass Hulkenebrg)
Do I have a puncture? |
To Leclerc: |
We have a puncture. DB position B and box. |
To Leclerc: |
Box now, box. |
To Leclerc: |
(The tyre disintegrates as he approaches Tabac)
The main thing is to come in. |
To Leclerc: |
Box now, box, we’ll check the car but everything is fine. Mode race, K2 on. And diff position plus one. |
To Leclerc: |
Hamilton on the main straight. Hamilton, Bottas, Verstappen coming, now Sebastian. |
To Leclerc: |
(Vettel is behind him as the approach Massenet)
Sebastian, let Sebastian by. |
To Leclerc: |
OK now it’s clear, clear behind. |
To Leclerc: |
And we need secondary MOD position seven. MOD position seven. |
To Leclerc: |
(The Safety Car is deployed)
So we stay out we’ve seen some floor damage. We stay out. |
Leclerc: |
What is the MOD? Tell me secondary or normal. |
To Leclerc: |
Secondary MOD position seven. Secondary MOD position seven. |
To Leclerc: |
(Leclerc passes the Safety Car)
Slow button on. Slow button on. |
Leclerc: |
How big is the floor damage? |
To Leclerc: |
So the rear-right I can see some damage. Also the rear-left. The rear-left is less, the right is a bit more. |
Leclerc: |
Is it a big thing or not? |
To Leclerc: |
It is… come back to you. |
To Leclerc: |
It is quite big on the rear-right, quite big damage on the rear-right. |
Leclerc: |
I can push, right? I can push, right? |
To Leclerc: |
We think you can push, yes. |
To Leclerc: |
But it’s a big part of the floor missing on the rear-right. |
To Leclerc: |
And we can see aero balance more to the front, around two percent more to the front now. |
To Leclerc: |
Slow button off and you can catch up the group now. |
Leclerc: |
You can what? |
To Leclerc: |
Slow button off, you can push to catch up the group in front. |
Leclerc: |
The car, to be honest, is undriveable. |
To Leclerc: |
Copy, understood. |
To Leclerc: |
So Charles what we can do is stop in the the box and remove front wing, at least four clicks. |
Leclerc: |
Yeah but I won’t catch the group anyway so I don’t know. Let’s at least try and stay on track otherwise we will get lapped. |
To Leclerc: |
OK we try and stay on track. |
Leclerc: |
I try and then we see, if it’s really undriveable there’s no point. |
To Leclerc: |
Understood. |
To Leclerc: |
Safety Car in this lap. So reminder K2 on for the restart. |
Leclerc: |
I don’t know if you see the car data but I’m scared… I’m not scared but I think I will crash to be honest. |
To Leclerc: |
Understood. |
Leclerc: |
The car is so tricky. |
To Leclerc: |
You can select or press K2 on. |
To Leclerc: |
(The track is briefly blocked as Giovinazzi and Kubica collide)
Kubica is moving now, backwards. |
Leclerc: |
Guys we need to stop. I’m so slow. I’m struggling so much. |
To Leclerc: |
Copy, understood, box now. |
To Leclerc: |
(Giovinazzi passes Leclerc approaching the Fairmont Hotel hairpin)
Box now, box. |
Leclerc: |
Yeah I’m coming. |
To Leclerc: |
We will change the tyres and we will take off a lot of front wing. |
Leclerc: |
Yeah but the car is… OK. |
Leclerc: |
The car is… |
To Leclerc: |
Let’s try again and if not we’ll try to find another solution. Box now, box. |
Leclerc: |
(Leclerc enters the pits)
I’m the first one to not give up but the car is extremely difficult to drive. |
Leclerc: |
(Leclerc leaves the pits)
I’m not managing to put any temperature in the tyres. |
To Leclerc: |
OK, understood, we can see that on data. |
To Leclerc: |
So now Hamilton, Verstappen, the lead cars at turn 16, 17. Track is clear. |
To Leclerc: |
(Leclerc accelerates towards Massenet)
And let us know if it’s slightly better. |
To Leclerc: |
(Leclerc exits Casino)
And slow down and box now, box. Slow button on. |
To Leclerc: |
The leading cars at turn three, turn four. |
Leclerc: |
Why do we need to box now? |
To Leclerc: |
So slow down, box. And we will retire now. |
Leclerc: |
OK. |
To Leclerc: |
The lead car’s now at turn 10, 11. And box now. |
To Leclerc: |
Sorry about that. |
To Leclerc: |
(Leclerc is pushed into the garage)
There’s quite a lot of damage on the car. |
Leclerc: |
Yeah I told you it was very difficult to drive. Anyway I’m sorry guys. To be honest… did Hulkenberg get any penalty because he has to leave a car’s space normally, which he didn’t really. But anyway. I’ll get out. |
To Leclerc: |
Copy.
