  1. Lap 39/62

    George Russell is now 4.9 seconds ahead of Max Verstappen in the lead of this race and the Dutchman has had not one but two twitches at Turn Two, exceeding track limits in the process. He needs to be careful now.

    Down into Turn 14 Max Verstappen just locked up and went straight on, he really had to slow the car and then get out and onto the straight from Turn 14 to 15. That cost him nearly 2.5 seconds to Lando Norris.

  3. Lap 38/62

    It's such a difficult circuit, you're so focused on the driving that you can forget to press that button that then activates the drinking system.

    It's important for the engineers to remind the driver to take a drink and rehydrate.

    When I say rehydrate, they are not chugging back loads of water in one go, it's gentle sips each and every time.

  4. Team radio - Alonso

    "Trophy for the hero of the race."

  5. Lap 37/62

    Max Verstappen is close to the wall after a lock-up at Turn 14. It;s a close call for the four-time world champion but he lives to fight another day in second place.

    Meanwhile, Fernando Alonso and rookie Isack Hadjar are battling each other for 13th spot. The more experienced racer gets the better of the young apprentice in the end but that was a good scrap from the two drivers.

  6. Team radio - Verstappen

    "**** man, it's so **** to drive."

  7. 'Most gruelling race on the calendar'

    This is the most gruelling race on the calendar for the drivers. They are losing three to four kilograms from perspiration alone.

  8. Lap 36/62

    Liam Lawson is doing a great job in eighth place after starting 12th, but the Racing Bulls driver is still riding aroumd on his starting medium tyres. If he can stay in the points it'll be a big boost for the team's ambitions of finishing sixth this season.

  9. Lap 35/62

    Kimi Antonelli is still the fastest man on the Marina Bay street circuit as his team-mate George Russell puts his foot down slightly to bat away any future attack by Max Verstappen.

  10. Lap 34/62

    The gap between George Russell and Max Verstappen is coming down. The Red Bull has taken a couple of tenths out of the Mercedes driver's lead and Russell might need to start looking in his mirrors for the oncoming threat of the four-time world champion.

    It looks like the cars behind George Russell are starting to pick up the pace.

    Max Verstappen, Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri are coming for the Mercedes driver, they are hunting him down.

  12. Lap 33/62

    Charles Leclerc is in the top five but he's not yet able to break away from the Mercedes of Kimi Antonelli. His Ferrari team-mate Lewis Hamilton, on the other hand, is finding pace on his nine-lap old hard rubber, and is inching closer to the Italian rookie in the fight for sixth.

  13. Lap 32/62

    We're back to a top three of George Russell, Max Verstappen and Lando Norris as the laps continue to tick down in Singapore. The Mercedes of Russell is over three seconds clear of the Red Bull of Verstappen, with Norris keeping up with the pace seven seconds back.

    We're not seeing the degradation that we've seen in previous years here in Singapore.

    Everybody just seems to be status quo at the moment with regards to their tyre life and tyre management.

  15. Top five

    Lap 31/62

    1. George Russell (Mercedes)

    2. Max Verstappen (Red Bull)

    3. Lando Norris (McLaren)

    4. Oscar Piastri (McLaren)

    5. Charles Leclerc (Ferrari)

  16. Lap 30/62

    Mercedes did a bit of double-stack with their pit stops earlier and now Kimi Antonelli, on the hards and in sixth, is collecting the fastest lap purple stopwatch. The Italian rookie might be able to get the jump on Charles Leclerc ahead of him, who is now running in fifth place following Ferrari's pit action.

  17. Team radio - Aston Martin to Alonso

    Engineer: "34 to go."

    Alonso: "If you speak to me every lap, I will disconnect the radio."

  18. Lap 29/62

    Fernando Alonso is, understandably, not in a good mood after that sluggish stop and he tells his engineer he will disconnect the radio if he is spoken to again. Ouch.

  19. Sam Bird
    Formula E driver on Radio 5 Sports Extra

    The McLarens pitting when they did hasn't hurt them but they haven't gained anything, so strategy for them was a case of just staying where they were.

  20. Team radio - Racing Bulls to Hadjar

    Engineer: "Okay, listen carefully, we have an engine issue. Three to four tenths a lap. I'm really sorry, it's back."

    Hadjar: "Mate, what the hell is wrong with this engine? Again."
