Engineer by Lance Stroll (Racing Point) : Observe Hülkenberg, he could be playing a (waiting) game, he won't want to give you the aspiration. But don't overtake Hülkenberg, don't overtake Hülkenberg.

(Passed by Sainz Jr) Go behind Sainz if you can, go behind Sainz. 

(Passed by the Ferraris) The Ferraris go faster, go behind the Ferraris. Follow the Ferraris if you can. 

(Through Bottas) Don't lose any more position! Maintain your position.

– Sector 2 –

The tires are in good condition, be careful to stay in this group, don't lose any more space. Keep attacking, you have to go faster now. 

– Sector 3 –

You no longer have enough margin, you have to continue to attack. You're in a good position now. The brakes seem to be good, the tires too. 

– Parabolic

Keep going, keep pushing. 

(Through Albon) We have to go now. You have to go now! You have to go now!!

– End of timer –

Lance Stroll – Nobody succeeded!

Engineer of Carlos Sainz Jr (McLaren) : Ok, you are the third car. Hülkenberg first, Stroll second and you third. Carlos, there is not much margin before the (checkered) flag. The flag is currently 13 seconds behind you. 

(Double Stroll) Ok Carlos, 10 seconds margin. 

(Double Hülkenberg then passed by the Ferraris) Not everyone will have a flying lap. 

(Double Leclerc) Carlos, 5 seconds before the flag, we need a good rhythm now.

– Sector 2 –

You have to defend your place, the margin is 4 or 5 seconds, most cars won't make it. 

(Double Hag) 

– Sector 3 –

Carlos Sainz Jr: Are we going to do it?

Engineer: There is a 2 second margin. Battery charge off, it's going to be tight! (Cross the line before the checkered flag)

Sebastian Vettel (Ferrari) : Tell Charles to go faster. (Doubles Leclerc and takes the lead)

Sebastian Vettel engineer: We have to attack now.

S.V.: Yes, but tell him (Charles) to come back in front of me then!

S.V.: What margin do we have? 

Engineer: Zero margin at the moment. 

(Doubled by Sainz)

S.V.: What margin? 

Engineer: Zero margin.

S.V.: Thank you, thank you… In any case, I think we were the fastest. 

Engineer Charles Leclerc (Ferrari) : There is not much margin. 6 seconds margin (Stands behind Vettel) It's right, we have to attack, come on. (Passed by Sainz Jr)

– Sector 2 –

3 seconds margin. We must attack. Zero margin. You have to attack, like in a normal “out lap”. Zero margin. Zero margin, zero margin. 

– Sector 3 –

You can outrun Sebastian. (Double Vettel) 1 second margin. Attack in the last corner, push, push.

Lewis Hamilton engineer: We are limited, we are limited. 

(Double Albon then goes back behind Hülkenberg)

– Sector 2 – 

Engineer – If we can move back into the group, that would be good. 

L.H. – I try. 

Engineer – We are behind schedule. 

– End of timer –

L.H. – It’s not cool! They kept us all behind, so we wouldn't complete a lap. 

Alex Albon (COM)Red Bull) : (Exits behind Hamilton): Can I slow down?

Alex Albon Engineer: We have 8 seconds left. It plays up front. Try to stay ahead, it will be right at the end.

Engineer Daniel Ricciardo (Renault) : Hamilton in front of you, Vettel in front of him at 2 seconds. I will keep you informed of the discrepancy. People are slowing down ahead, let's not waste too much time. Let's not waste our time. We are on the razor's edge, there is very little margin.

– Sector 2 –

50 seconds before the checkered flag. Bottas in front of you. Let's not miss this one! Come on, there's no time to slow down. Go faster, roll like a usual “out lap”.

– Sector 3 –

No time to slow down. Go ahead, go ahead. 

– End of timer –

Engineer of Valtteri Bottas (Mercedes) : The Ferraris are attacking, watch out for the delta. We don't have much time. Try to move forward. 

– Sector 2 – 

Just 5 seconds of safety... We are 5 seconds behind the program. So we are not safe anymore. 

– Sector 3 –

We are not safe.
