"Nico Rosberg is keeping a second behind leader Lewis Hamilton. We are coming up to an interesting team decision as normally the lead driver gets decision to choose when to pit. Hamilton needs to try to open that gap out."
The Ferraris are also keeping the Mercedes drivers very honest. This could get interesting.
So Force India's Nico Hulkeberg is our first retirement on lap 10.
Not a great season for the Silverstone team so far. Their late start to pre-season testing is starting to bite.
Nico Hulkenberg: "I lost the gearbox - something bad happened. Something went really wrong there, a big bang."
Great pass from young Max Verstappen there, the Toro Rosso man out-dragging the Sauber of Marcus Ericsson on the 1.1km back straight and getting the pass done under braking.
Into the points goes the Dutchman.

"He (Daniil Kvyat) is going to get his first talking-to from Red Bull chief Christian Horner after the race. Kvyat and team-mate Daniel Ricciardo are on different strategies and there is no point in him keeping Ricciardo behind him."
It's as you were at the front with Hamilton's Mercedes ahead of team-mate Rosberg by around a second.
Vettel is third in the first of the Ferraris, three seconds further, back, with Raikkonen fourth ahead of Williams duo Massa and Bottas.
Next up is Grosjean, Nasr, Maldonado and Ericsson in alternating Lotuses and Saubers.

"Daniel Ricciardo's car went into anti-stall mode at the start."
That explains that one then.
We've just heard the Red Bull team radio telling Daniil Kvyat to get out of the way of Ricciardo as they are on different strategies.
The message appeared to be slow in getting through as the Russian chopped rudely across the Australian at the start of lap six.
Luckily contact was avoided and Ricciardo got the job done later in the lap.

Red Bull's Daniel Ricciardo overtakes McLaren's Fernando Alonso and Coulthard says: "That is brave, incredible - round the outside at six and seven."
We saw Daniel Ricciardo looking wild-eyed earlier and he'll be even more so now after a poor start in the Red Bull.
Lining up seventh, the Australian dropped to down to 16th place off the start.
He's on the move though and has put a great move on Fernando Alonso's McLaren.

"When not to put the kettle on? Not from lap 10 onwards as that is when the first round of pit stops are set to start. It is absolute pandemonium in the pits this afternoon."
Gary Grafter: Excellent start by the Iceman :-D
Jeremiah Kariuki: Good start by Bottas. However quick recovery from Kim and good moves up the grid!
Liesl Moriau: Hammertime!

"Lewis Hamilton's starting grid position sent a clear message to Nico Rosberg, saying I am coming straight over. I've never seen such a position."
Carlos Sainz has had a spin in the Toro Rosso at the start of lap two.
The Spaniard seem just just run wide and slowly rotated.
"Don't talk to me in the corners please," comes the message to his team on the radio seconds later.
Oops.
Hamilton is 1.1secs clear of Rosberg after lap one.
Vettel is third ahead of Raikkonen, with the Willliams of Massa fifth ahead of his team-mate Bottas.
Hamilton holds his lead from Rosberg through the first few turns.
Vettel runs third while Raikkonen, from sixth on the grid, is up to fourth.
Mercedes-Mercedes, Ferrari-Ferrari.
