    Millington: When do we start talking about Tsunoda’s results, compared to Lawson’s and Perez’s, and discuss why there’s such a discrepancy in performance between Verstappen and his teammate, regardless of who it is?

  8. Who do you bring in first?published at 14:26 British Summer Time 1 June

    Strategists at McLaren and Red Bull are being pictured on screen because it comes down to when to bring your driver in. Which one do you bring in first? McLarens are following each other now which gives them a bit of an extra opportunity but the undercut here is so crucial, so important. You can really help your driver there by bringing them in a lap early and letting them race and make up the place.

    Lewis Hamilton is told to pit and is back out on mediums. Charles Leclerc is staying out for now.

    Max Verstappen is the fastest man on the track at the moment as he starts working his way back up through the top 10. He's currently seventh.

    Fernando Alonso pits following that trip into the gravel.

    Both McLarens, while they haven't stopped yet, are the only two cars running in the one minute and 20 seconds, the closest to that is Charles Leclerc.

    This track temperature and these tyre conditions are really playing havoc to the drivers.

    So at the moment it is Oscar Piastri who leads Lando Norris by 4.1s. Behind them - way behind them - are the Ferrari pair of Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton.

    Having lost second place Max Verstappen pits. He bolts on another set of softs and is back out in eighth.

    The camera then cuts to Fernando Alonso having a trip through the gravel.

  15. 'McLaren has better tyre degradation'published at 14:22 British Summer Time 1 June

    The Red Bull was able to fire up the tyres quicker in the race but we know the McLaren has better tyre degradation than the other teams and I think we're seeing this in play here.

    Lando Norris sweeps around the outside of Max Verstappen's Red Bull down into Turn One with Verstappen offering up no fight with his lack of grip.

    It is a McLaren one-two out in front once again.

  17. Team radio - McLaren to Piastripublished at 14:21 British Summer Time 1 June

    Engineer: "How's the tyre?"

    Piastri: "Struggling a little bit with the rear."

  18. 'Ferrari had to pull that plug'published at 14:20 British Summer Time 1 June

    We saw Lewis Hamilton outqualify his team-mate Charles Leclerc yesterday, but this weekend he hasn't really gelled with the car and we're seeing that now because the gap is still six seconds to Lando Norris.

    Ferrari had to pull that plug and make Leclerc be allowed to go past and see if he can try and catch up to the McLaren of Norris.

  19. Team radio - Verstappenpublished at 14:20 British Summer Time 1 June

    "No grip compared to [McLaren]."

  20. Postpublished at Lap 13/66

    Carlos Sainz was in the pits for over 10 seconds and he's back out in last place.

    Perre Gasly has also pitted with those tyres now really starting to fade. Lando Norris reports that he is struggling with his rears.
