    With each lap that Hamilton and Rosberg are able to extend the gap to Ricciardo, it takes the pressure off the Mercedes pit crew.

    Mercedes just playing with Red Bull here. On 20-lap old tyres are lapping the same pace as Ricciardo on new ones.

    The gap between Lewis Hamilton and Daniel Ricciardo, who has made two stops, is now 3.8s.

    Will those tyres get Ricciardo to the end of the race? He's got 33 laps to run on those softs...

    Sebastian Vettel: "Come on blue flags! That's ridiculous."

    Vettel in third is getting frustrated as he negotiates the traffic. 

    He really is quite an angry old hector these days...

    Ricciardo has got to make these soft tyres last 35 laps, which is a big ask. 

  8. Lap 35/70published at 13:55 British Summer Time 24 July 2016

    You know Lewis Hamilton said a little earlier that he was going as fast as he can on his current set of tyres? Well he's just managed to find a bit more. His latest lap is a 1:25.254, quicker than Nico Rosberg and he now leads by 2.6s.

    Second stop for Daniel Ricciardo and he sticks on a fresh set of softs and is back out in fifth, behind Max Verstappen.

    Will Mercedes respond and bring someone in?

    Now Mercedes are under pressure. At the halfway point of the race, which driver are they going to bring in first?

  11. Mercedes team radio - Hamilton told to speed uppublished at 13:52 British Summer Time 24 July 2016

    Lewis Hamilton has just been told he needs to speed up or risk losing first dibs on the next round of pit stops to team-mate Nico Rosberg. 

    That was received as warmly as you might expect....

    "I'm going as fast as I can on these tyres," Hamilton explains.

    Ferrari have got good race here. Quite where their pace was in the lead-up to this race, I'm not quite sure.

  13. Lap 33/70published at 13:51 British Summer Time 24 July 2016

    Kimi Raikkonen, on super softs, does the fastest lap of the race - a 1:24.920. He's sixth and 16 seconds behind Max Verstappen.

  14. Lap 32/70published at 13:50 British Summer Time 24 July 2016

    Remember Jenson Button and his early struggles? Well, he is still out there, and he's just pitted for the third time to put on medium tyres. He's back out in 21st and will be going until the end of the race, providing he has no further issues.

    Raikkonen is going to be really aggressive in these next few laps on the super-softs - outbreaking Alonso into Turn One has to be the strategy.

  17. Lap 31/70published at 13:48 British Summer Time 24 July 2016

    Lewis Hamilton has found his inner Scotty from Star Trek. He needed more power and he's found it. The gap between himself and Nico Rosberg is now two seconds.

  18. Lap 30/70published at 13:47 British Summer Time 24 July 2016

    Now Kimi Raikkonen pits for the first time. He ditches the softs and slaps on some super softs, coming out in seventh, behind Fernando Alonso and ahead of Carlos Sainz.

    If we're learning anything about this battle between Raikkonen and Verstappen, the Dutchman is faster but track position is king here. 

  20. Lap 29/70published at 13:46 British Summer Time 24 July 2016

    Max Verstappen is still trying to find a chink in Kimi Raikkonen's armour. He's looming large in Raikkonen's rear mirrors but can't find a way past. Raikkonen knows how to race here.
