Kimi Raikkonen sneaks in a quicker time with 1:32.181 to finish the second part of qualifying fastest.
Nico Hulkenberg leaps up into P6, so he's safe.
Fernando Alonso can't find that bit more so he will line up 13th tomorrow.
Hmmm. The Ferraris have decided to head back out on the track again, along with everyone from sixth down.

Ricciardo may feel confident enough in fifth place but I think from sixth down we will see everyone else come out onto the track again.
All quiet on the track as everyone pits. Lewis Hamilton is out of his car. We're unlikely to see the top four until the final part of qualifying.
Fernando Alonso, Nico Hulkenberg, Kevin Magnussen and Marcus Ericsson are in trouble at the moment.

Reece Young: The gap between Lewis Hamilton and Vettel is the stuff of dreams. Looks like we have a right old scrap on our hands
Stevedwhittle: If Alonso gets that orange pup anywhere near Q3, he should be given a knighthood for bravery.
Sam Fuller: Can't we start a petition or something to get Alonso in a decent car? #bestdriveronthegrid
Fernando Alonso crosses the line in 1:34.372, just two tenths off the top 10 at the moment.
He'll have another shot at getting an improvement. Can he sneak into the top 10? What a result that would be.

It is nice to see Bottas and Raikkonen getting in the mix. We really should have a four car battle for the lead.
Here's the times from the top six at the moment.

That is a good lap from Vettel but also relatively as good from Bottas and Hamilton because they have closed the gap to Vettel from FP3.
Lewis Hamilton does a 1:32.406, just 0.015s slower than Sebastian Vettel.
Valtteri Bottas slots in third with a 1:32.552.
Once again, the top four are in a field of their own. Just two tenths of a second between them while Daniel Ricciardo, who is P5, is 1.1s off the pace.
Sebastian Vettel goes quicker than Kimi Raikkonen by two tenths of a second.
Kimi Raikkonen is the first to set a time in Q2 as he does a 1:32.602.

These cars are very unforgiving.
The reality is, when the cars get away from you, they get away very quickly.
That is a mixture of aerodynamics and the peakiness of these tyres. It is a tough job for the rookie drivers particularly.

Bethonie Waring: With the number of drivers making mistakes, I feel Stroll is owed an apology from those making fun of him for his practice incidents
"Just remember this is the race start set," Lewis Hamilton is reminded.
He's out with super-softs on the Mercedes.
The second part of qualifying is under way.
First out is Lance Stroll.

Seán: Very apparent Alonso is driving the backside out of that McLaren. Such a shame to see the grid's best driver in such a woeful car
Mad Pauly: 2017 cars appear more of a handful and harder to get back on course after they snap. Could this be because of the fins?
Meer Shah: Yet again, Alonso marvels us with a fine drive in a poor car in Q1. An understatement: Alonso simply too good for current McLaren car
