  1. Undercut works for Verstappen

    Lap 39/70

    Mercedes don't want to fall foul of the undercut, so Kimi Antonelli is brought in for his second pit stop. The Italian rookie is sent out to play but Max Verstappen stays ahead. The Dutchman is fifth, Antonelli is now sixth.

    George Russell is serenely going about his business, he's five and a half seconds clear now from Max Verstappen. He's doing a really solid job at this stage in the race.

  3. Verstappen stops again

    Lap 38/70

    Max Verstappen makes a stop from second place, bolting on another set of hards before coming back out to rejoin the action in sixth place.

  4. Hamilton 'nowhere'

    Lap 37/50

    It's a lonely race for Lewis Hamilton, who tells his pit wall he is "nowhere" in the pecking order. The seven-time world champion might be limping a bit, but not sure where he has picked up any damage? He reckons he's losing the most performance on the straights.

    I think we will resign to the fact that everybody is going to be two-stopping.

    Can Lando Norris close that gap to Oscar Piastri and when he does, will there be team orders?

  6. Lap 36/70

    Pierre Gasly is told by Alpine to swap position with team-mate Franco Colapinto, which the Frenchman does with no fuss whatsoever. Colapinto is 15th, Gasly is 16th.

  7. Lap 35/70

    Nico Hulkenberg overtakes Pierre Gasly with the help of DRS to move his Sauber up into 14th place. At the front of the grid, George Russell is leading by four seconds from Max Verstappen, with Mercedes team-mate Kimi Antonelli in the final podium spot.

  8. Lap 34/70

    Job done for Fernando Alonso. The 43-year-old passes the Williams of Carlos Sainz and is now up to ninth place.

  9. Lap 33/70

    There are still a few cars who have yet pit in this race, including Esteban Ocon in eighth and Carlos Sainz in ninth. Fernando Alonso is on the prowl, though, and is eyeing his fellow Spaniard’s position.

  10. Lap 32/70

    Lando Norris, medium boots bolted on, is now the fastest man on track with a lap time of 1:15.277. The McLaren is up to fifth place, one spot behind team-mate and championship leader Oscar Piastri. A reminder there are 10 points between the duo in the title standings.

    At least that gives Lando Norris a chance to at least try, let's see what he can do. I think that's way too early and I don't think he will be able to make it to the end, but it gives McLaren the opportunity that they can stay out there.

  12. Lap 31/70

    Ferrari and Charles Leclerc are not on the same page today. Singing from a different hymn sheet and all that. Leclerc is back on the radio to argue the toss with his engineer about the tyre strategy in Montreal. He is not a happy groundhog.

    That's a two-stop for Charles Leclerc. Now it's down to what Lando Norris can do and eek out that tyre life, everyone else is going for a two-stop.

  15. Mediums for Norris

    Lap 30/70

    It was the same hards for Charles Leclerc, but McLaren have handed Lando Norris a set of mediums for his next stint.

    So, George Russell finds himself back in front followed by Max Verstappen and Kimi Antonelli, with Oscar Piastri running in fourth place.

  16. Leclerc pits

    Lap 29/70

    Charles Leclerc has banked his pit stop but putting on the same hard tyre doesn't excite the Monegasque driver as he questions the Scuderia's selection.

  17. Lap 28/70

    Max Verstappen and Charles Leclerc are running close but the exit of Turn 10 doesn't offer up a chance for the Dutchman to pass like it did George Russell.

    He moves up a spot now, though, as Ferrari make the call for Leclerc to come in...

  18. Russell overtakes Leclerc

    Lap 27/70

    Off the hairpin with DRS, in front of the fans, and George Russell overtakes Charles Leclerc's Ferrari for second place. The next target is to close in on Lando Norris' lead, as Max Verstappen tries his luck on Leclerc next.

    In our eyes Max Verstappen and George Russell are going to be going on a two-stop.

    It all depends on how far Lando Norris and Charles Leclerc can eek out this first stint.

    We're now seeing George Russell catching the back of Charles Leclerc but not at an alarming rate of knots.

  20. Lap 26/70

    George Russell is keeping Max Verstappen at arm's length as the two sit in third and fourth after the pit stop shakedowns. The Mercedes man is banking some fastest laps to boot, giving the Red Bull of Verstappen something to think about.
