Bozzi And back to mode ‘race’. This should last another three, four laps. And lap times are still for slicks. Inters is one minute 40.
Bozzi Heavy rain in the pit lane, class two to three.
Leclerc How long will it last?
Bozzi Another 10 minutes later. Leaders still staying out.
Leclerc Get ready.
Lap 19
Bozzi We expect this to be the heaviest. And 10 minutes like this.
Leclerc At Village, Box.
Bozzi Copy.
Leclerc My rears are… I’m struggling like crazy with the rears. Wait a second before boxing because part of the track is fully dry.
Leclerc Box, box.
Bozzi Copy, box. We box for inters. Leader still staying out. And target seven
Pretty clear, it was Charles's call and info he was given was not incorrect.
Lap 17: "Leaders are staying out"
Lap 18: "And lap times are still for slicks. Inters is one minute 40."
Lap 18: "Heavy rain in the pit lane, class two to three." (he does not mention the track and Silverstone is a big track, only a driver would know which part of the track is wet or dry)
Lap 18: "Another 10 minutes later. Leaders still staying out." (This is repeat of Lap 17 msg)
Lap 18: Leclerc: "Get ready" (First indication came from Lec's side)
Lap 19: "We expect this to be the heaviest. And 10 minutes like this" (10 minutes is repeat msg that rain will not last too long)
Lap 19:Leclerc: At Village, Box" (Second call, again from Lec)
Lap19: Leclerc: "My rears are… I’m struggling like crazy with the rears. Wait a second before boxing because part of the track is fully dry." (He knew rain was only for 10 minutes and part of the track was still dry)
Lap19: Leclerc: "Box, box." (Third call from Charles"
Lap 19: "Copy, box. We box for inters. Leader still staying out. And target seven" (This is the third time he was told leaders are staying out)
I don't understand how could this be blamed on the pitwall?
