00:00 He's in the zone at the moment, isn't he? He's got the confidence.

00:04 Hasn't got an appendix anymore, but he's got the confidence.

00:06 It's all come to him.

00:08 Yeah, copy that.

00:10 Was it unsafe?

00:14 Yeah, it could have been a little bit, but...

00:16 Was that Oscar driving?

00:18 Yeah, I think he did the right thing and just staying to the right-hand side.

00:21 We're on board with Logan Sargent now.

00:25 Ruffet of his final corners of the lap.

00:30 Yeah, scrappy through there, but back in the car.

00:33 But this time in the chassis that's been repaired.

00:35 This was the chassis that Alex Albon had in Australia.

00:38 Well, it's going to give it a good workout, isn't it?

00:40 Lois Hamilton then on those soft tyres I mentioned.

00:42 Just eight points so far this season.

00:44 That's his lowest or fewest number of points for the post...

00:48 The first three races of a season since 2009.

00:51 He's gone a little bit deep there into Turn 16.

00:54 The right-hander of the chicane.

00:56 I don't know if he was just slightly put off by the Haas that he had to work his way around.

01:00 But, yeah, snatched away from him.

01:02 Yellow flag in one and two right now.

01:04 He's gone off.

01:06 Logan Sargent, is it?

01:07 It is, I think.

01:08 In the Williams.

01:09 Lost a lot of the front wing.

01:11 So this is Turn 7.

01:12 That's the barrier in Turn 7 before the first of the Degners.

01:16 And I should imagine he's tried to keep his foot down.

01:19 Remember, he says he's okay.

01:21 That's the main thing. Is the chassis okay?

01:24 It's already been repaired, of course.

01:26 Not through his own doing, but he's in that chassis and it's red flagged.

01:31 And I should imagine he's...

01:33 Remember, we were watching the throttle positioning of Stroll.

01:37 I should imagine he's just got it onto the grass on the exit and tried to keep his foot flat.

01:43 And just asked a little bit too much from the car.

01:46 I see another shot here.

01:47 He was on the kerb a long time.

01:49 And then he got to the point of no return.

01:52 Once you're into that grass, there's nothing you can do.

01:54 You've got that pendulum going.

01:55 The car wants to go outwards to the right-hand side here.

01:58 So he's already fighting it.

02:00 And you're desperately trying to bring it back to the left.

02:03 But also trying to carry the same momentum that you had.

02:05 He's on a soft set of tires there.

02:08 He was gunning for a lap time.

02:10 And, yeah, obviously pushing the limits a bit too hard.

02:13 Before 1.30 R of Landon Norris.

02:16 Good spot there, Rachel.

02:17 Hill pull to the right-hand side.

02:18 Opens up the braking zone.

02:20 Straight line braking into the final chicane.

02:22 Clod of the kerb, right, then left in 17.

02:24 Then the tricky right-hander of 18.

02:27 Take a tighter line to minimize the angle of attack.

02:30 A 1.30 zero for Max Verstappen.

02:33 Four and a half tenths up.

02:34 Or nearly five tenths up on Hamilton.

02:36 Yeah, a really nice lap.

02:37 The car didn't look particularly light to me as well, fuel load-wise.

02:41 And there is the benchmark.

02:43 And a really strong lap as well by Sergio Perez.

02:47 Just over a tenth away.

02:48 Piastri comes around.

02:49 Norris comes around the final corner there.

02:51 Not a remarkable lap time behind the RB of Yuki Tsunoda.

02:57 Yeah, just the thing they mentioned on that there,

03:00 that is a lap that Norris had obviously started on before the red flag,

03:04 that soft tire.

03:05 So it's not a brand-new soft for Norris.

03:07 So how much has he taken out of it?

03:09 Or has it cooled down too much in the garage?

03:11 Yeah, good point.

03:13 Good point, Bernie.

03:14 It does obviously take a lot out here.

03:15 What are we looking at here?

03:16 We're just seeing he's crossed the line at the pit exit, Nico Hülkenberg.

03:19 He's had a black and white flag for it

03:21 because he hasn't followed the race director's instructions.

03:23 But he's trying to get around the RB, is he?

03:25 Yeah, there's this white line on the left.

03:28 Wow.

03:29 Yeah, that was...

03:30 Slam dunk.

03:31 That was funny.

03:32 I was just saying what a pro he is.

03:34 And he's a safe pair of hands.

03:36 But that was...

03:37 Obviously, he was frustrated.

03:39 He was massively impatient.

03:40 But you know that the white line is a concrete wall.

03:43 You cannot go past that white line.

03:46 The team will have all the data.

03:49 They'll be studying that later on.

03:52 OK, that was a clean session.

03:54 You should be pleased.

03:55 Good job.

03:56 Yeah, first of all, thank you so much for this amazing opportunity.

04:02 And it is such a privilege to sit in one of these cars.

04:08 They're amazing machines.

04:10 It must feel incredible, the first time.

04:12 You can't imagine the difference between a Formula 1 car

04:16 against any other single-seater category out there in the world.

04:20 It must have brought a huge smile to his face.

04:23 I'm wishing now that any other car he drives in his career

04:26 will be as good as that.

04:28 So, Max Verstappen, then, tops the times with a 1.30.056.

04:32 Sergio Perez, just shy of two tenths behind him.

04:36 He'll say it's one tenth. I know what you guys are like.

04:38 Carlos Sainz, though, third quickest in the Ferrari.

04:41 George Russell and Lewis Hamilton, the two Mercedes,

04:43 splitting the two Ferraris, as you said, Anne,

04:45 with Charles Leclerc, sixth quickest.

04:47 Then, Fernando Alonso in the upgraded Aston.

04:49 And we have Alpine Espanol in P11.

04:52 Alex Albon in the only other Williams on track

04:54 at the end of that session in P12.

04:55 Then, Nico Hülkenberg, Valtteri Bottas,

04:57 the quickest of the Saubers.

04:59 Then, Lance Stroll, Ayumu Iwasa, good showing from him

05:01 in his first Formula 1 outing on a race weekend.

05:03 Pierre Gasly, 17th, and then, Sgt. Magnussen and Joe Guagnou,

05:07 bringing up the final, the rest of the 20.

05:10 That's it for first practice.
