    Another lap comes and goes, the iconic corners completed and still there's no change at the front. Max Verstappen is 40 laps on these medium tyres and will be switching to the soft for the closing stages.

    Charles Leclerc is not too far off the McLaren of Lando Norris but it's not enough to launch an attack on the Briton. Norris is second, Leclerc is third and Max Verstappen leads, but the Dutchman will be making a stop soon.

    [George Ruusell] is there in the Mercedes pit box, the mechanics ready with the medium tyres. Bit slow dropping him back down and releasing him into the fast lane.

    Charles Leclerc is on the Ferrari team radio to say Lando Norris is going a bit too slowly ahead of him. Team work going on at McLaren.

    Alex Albon may have lost a few friends in this race by doing his tactics and putting them off and braking early.

    Carlos Sainz is doing his bit and the pair of them are going to try and get one car into the top 10, which is better than Mercedes.

    George Russell greets his Mercedes crew for a pit stop, medium tyres on, and he rejoins the track exactly where he was - P11.

    All [Max] Verstappen is really doing by staying out is being annoying. He's not gaining anything. He can't win by this because he lost the pit stop window that he had to [Oscar] Piastri and if he pits he will come out fourth place, so what's the point of staying out?

    Lap 63/78

    The purple clock is still by Oscar Piastri in fourth but the Australian is six seconds away from leader Max Verstappen, who needs to make another stop, but he is creeping up to Charles Leclerc's Ferrari in third.

    Lap 62/78

    Williams inform Carlos Sainz they'll be swapping him and Alex Albon around soon. Sainz, in ninth, says let's wait until the end of the race, as you never know what will happen. Good thinking, Carlos. No need to take major risks. But there is the small matter of a Mercedes in between them.

    Racing Bulls and Haas will be pleased if it stays like this, as Isack Hadjar, Liam Lawson and Esteban Ocon are still running in the points with only a few laps to go.

    This is a bit of a drama because you've got Lando Norris closing up on Max Verstappen.

    Verstappen has to stop one more time but why would he, something might happen, we still have about 20 laps to go and he's now backing Norris up to Charles Leclerc.

    If you're just dipping in, hello! Pierre Gasly and Fernando Alonso are out of the Monaco Grand Prix, while the new two-stop rule has been, interesting.

    Ian: Albon is arguably driving dangerously

    Kimi Antonelli is the only driver who hasn't been into the pits yet. The rookie is very deep into a hard tyre stint.

    George Russell was complaining about Alex Albon braking erratically and Kimi Antonelli had to go up on the kerb and nearly into the barrier to avoid hitting the back of the Williams.

    Carlos Sainz comes in to the pits for his first pit stop - and so does George Russell for his drive-through penalty. Spaniard Sainz slots into ninth place, aided by his team-mate Alex Albon and his shenanigans with the Mercedes drivers.
