All of the leaders are coming in and the one not under pressure to react is Piastri, he's got quite a gap behind him and a slower car.

Russell and Sainz making their pit-stops, these two are effectively fighting for third position.

Max Verstappen is in for a change and comes out on track in second place. Oscar Piastri is into the lead of this Austrian Grand Prix.

All the guys from P3 through to P6 are all going to have to decide whether they want to react and cover so expect big pit-stops coming up.

Piastri: "I think Hamilton has crossed the white line on entry."

Oscar Piastri has spotted an infringement and says he thinks Lewis Hamilton crossed the white line on the pit entry. Replays show the Australian could be right...

It's fairly clear for Max Verstappen at the moment with a five-second advantage.

Guanyu: "What is he doing?"

Zhou Guanyu is on the Sauber radio berating Fernando Alonso after the two drivers made contact. The Chinese driver was forced wide and was not happy with the two-time world champion.

Sergio Perez also has a little bit of damage to his Red Bull.

Esteban Ocon comes into the Alpine pits for a pit stop and rejoins the action in 15th place.

I think they've pitted [Leclerc] to make sure they come out in front of the trailing car of Sargeant. They've got rubber to finish the race but right now, its not looking good and that car isn't driving at the same pace you would expect compared to his team-mate, for me the car has got damage.

The reports from other drivers are suggesting the hard tyres aren't quite up to the job at the Red Bull Ring today. Charles Leclerc has already ditched his. Will of the front-runners to do the same?

Nico Hulkenberg and Kevin Magnussen and trying to team-up against the Sauber of Zhou Guanyu. The German goes through first and is quickly followed by his Danish mate. P13 and P14 for the Haas pair now.

Andrew Priestley: The front-3 seem pretty settled in this race, unless we have a Safety Car to mix things up, or one of them is very hard or very light on their tyre wear.

Nulla Pax: Always good to have a Strategist on the commentary. Interesting stuff Ruth

Charles Leclerc is back into the pits for a changover to the medium tyres from the hard compound. It's a lonely race for the Monaco Grand Prix winner, who has just been lapped by Max Verstappen.

It doesn't make any sense to box unless you've got a trigger, if you can, you keep going.

The deficit Lando Norris has to make up now is five seconds to Max Verstappen, who is increasingly building his lead to hand Red Bull some decent breathing space for strategy.

Engineer: "Manage the tyres Kev, manage the tyres."

Magnussen: "Just me?"

Engineer: "Both tyres need to save"

I've asked Ferrari what the damage was for Leclerc, we saw him come in and change that front wing, but they haven't got back to me yet. He's obviously lost a bit of downforce and the floor is a problem as well, so not running as it should be.
