    Lewis Hamilton responds to Daniel Ricciardo's stop by doing likewise. It's a set of super-softs for the Mercedes driver and he resumes in the lead, 5.7s ahead of Nico Rosberg who has that five second time penalty to be taken into account.

  3. Lap 33/67published at 13:50 British Summer Time 31 July 2016

    Daniel Ricciardo pits from second and he's swapped softs for super-softs. He'll have to stop again. Interesting call. 

    Ricciardo is back out in fourth with Nico Rosberg elevated into second.

    Did Rosberg force Verstappen off the track?

    Reece Young: That's no different to what he did to Hamilton. He forced him off the track. Didn't try to take the corner until it was gone.

    Amit Mandalia: Verstappen moved quite late there & Rosberg blocked him at the exit. Half a dozen of one…

    Demola Rotimi: Nico Rosberg is too aggressive, he drove Verstappen off the track. Just like he tried with Hamilton.

  5. Lap 32/67published at 13:48 British Summer Time 31 July 2016

    Blow for Nico Rosberg. He is deemed to have pushed Max Verstappen wide and is given a five second time penalty.

    "It's all kicking off behind you Lewis, so as much pace as possible," Hamilton is told.

    Rosberg's Verstappen move similar to what he tried with Hamilton on last lap in Austria. Under investigation. Verstappen was trying his trademark moving in the braking area, too. Pick that one apart.

    Message from race control is that that incident is under investigation. Looked fair to me. We shall see...

  12. Lap 28/67published at 13:44 British Summer Time 31 July 2016

    A right old ding dong between Nico Rosberh and Max Verstappen! On those fresh tyres, he attacks Verstappen in to the hairpin. The Red Bull driver runs out of road and is off the track. 

    Rosberg moves into fifth, but Verstappen is not happy. "He pushed me off the track," he complains.

  13. Lap 27/67published at 13:42 British Summer Time 31 July 2016

    Nico Rosberg makes his second stop to lose the super-softs and slap on some softs.

    Meanwhile, we've just had the standard 'Vettel blue flag whinge'. He's got himself up behind Felipe Nasr and, just like in Hungary, doesn't feel he is getting out of the way quick enough.

    Hamilton is superb out front. He made the perfect start from the 'dirty side' of the grid and he is almost playing with the cars behind him. This is his race to lose.

  15. Lap 26/67published at 13:40 British Summer Time 31 July 2016

    Esteban Gutierrez finally makes his first stop. In he pops for super-softs and he is back out in 18th. 

    Jolyon Palmer heads in for his second stop and has his nose swapped. He'd carried on after an earlier collision with Felipe Massa. The Brit resumes in last place.

    Bishop Yinkus: Could it be wise to say it's high time for Felipe Masa to retire from Formula 1? It seems his confidence is long gone.

    Fred Kiberu: If Rosberg finishes fourth today, it'll be the day he lost championship.

    Blackburn Lad: Thank you F1 for the return of the radio, best decision of the season.

    "People on super-softs are struggling a little bit, so keep looking after that left front," Daniel Ricciardo, who is third, is told.

    Nico Rosberg, one of those on super-softs, is indeed struggling to match Ricciardo for pace. The Australian was two tenths quicker on his latest lap.

  18. Lap 24/67published at 13:37 British Summer Time 31 July 2016

    Max Verstappen and Nico Rosberg are the only two inside the top 10 not on softs. They are on super-softs and will likely have to do another two stops.

    Underwhelming from Rosberg so far after dropping to fourth at the start. He's still there.

  20. Lap 23/67published at 13:36 British Summer Time 31 July 2016

    Esteban Gutierrez is now passed by Sergio Perez. He hasn't had his first stop yet but you would imagine he will be brought in soon. Those soft tyres he is on have done 23 laps now.
