    Sebastian Vettel heads in for his second stop of the race, takes on a set of hard tyres, 2.2s and he is back out in fourth.

    Meanwhile, front jackmen are earning their money today! Romain Grosjean heads in, overshoots and one of his team is sent tumbling to the ground, jack in hand. Ouch.

    Grosjean even collected his front left wheel man as well.

    Tshimetsah: It will need a bulldozer to distract Rosberg on that track. He's got it all figured out.

    ...Lewis Hamilton is right behind Valtteri Bottas and makes his move heading into Turn One, nails it and he is now up to third.

  6. 'It was scary'published at 14:04 British Summer Time 10 May 2015

    Fernando Alonso, speaking to BBC Sport's Lee McKenzie: "It was scary. I had no brakes for the whole in-lap, and for the pit stop it was even less.

    "I'm disappointed for the retirement but the only thing we can do now is investigate and come back stronger for Monaco.

    "We are a long way off and we need to make double steps because everyone else is improving.

    "This is a very challenging project, but I'm happy that we're recovering well and we need to keep it up."

    "Lewis Hamilton is really charging. He's been told he can push on these tyres.

    "Hamilton charging is always worth watching, so keep a close eye on these next few laps."

    "Another slightly tardy stop for Hamilton. It looked like the jack got caught under the front wing."

    Browncheeks: What is the point of an F1 circuit where it's near impossible to overtake? Rather watch traffic on the M1.

    Ferdi Tjombe: One step forward and two steps back for McLaren.

    Ohigho Musa: It is getting from bad to worse for Alonso. The move to McLaren seems to be a very poor one.

    There's not too many vying for positions out on the circuit at the moment, although Nico Hulkenberg, in 16th, is edging closer to Pastor Maldonado, the gap just over half a second between the two.

    Meanwhile, Lewis Hamilton is heading in for his second stop. Will this one be smoother...?

    "I'm down at McLaren and that guy on the front jack is a very brave man and very light on his feet too. When Alonso came in he really did jump."

    That moment David Coulthard mentions happened after Fernando Alonso ran wide at Turn One.

    He corrected himself and got back to the pits but overshot his stop and sends a jack flying 20 metres in front of him. Luckily, no-one gets hurt, but his race is over - almost certainly because of the brake problem.
