Former Renault driverWhat is going on with these Haases in the pits? Are they overheating?
In the space of three laps the Haas cars have come to a stop after leaving the pits. It's very, very strange.

What is happening at Haas!
It's Deja vu as Romain Grosjean slows after his pit stop before coming to a halt.
Surely not the same problem as Kevin Magnussen? It does look like another problem with a wheel being attached.
Haas team principal Gunther Steiner looks beside himself!

Oh now, disaster for Kevin Magnussen!
The Haas pits, moving onto supersofts but it looks like the left rear wheel was not properly attached!
Magnussen slows and then stops as one of the Haas team members shuffles out of the garage.

Verstappen pits from eighth, moving onto softs. The decision to start the race on the supersofts hasn't paid off.

Former Renault driverWhen someone's a little bit lethargic and quiet in your ear, then it sets a little bit of a tone for your race.
Clearly Alonso is wanting a bit more fire and a bit more punch from his engineer.

Uh oh. Problems for Pierre Gasly. The Toro Rosso is circulating very slowly... problem with that Honda engine...?

Fernando Alonso, currently 10th, is informed about where Max Verstappen is after the Red Bull driver spins.
Alonso, somewhat unnecessarily, snaps back: “OK but speak up a little bit, it is a long race and you are losing the energy already.
"Mate I'm here racing with you, the energy is high. Come on let's do this," his race engineer responds.
Alonso trying to be driver and team manager at the moment.

BBC Radio 5 live pit-lane reporterI thought Adrian Newey was about to break his pen in half when Verstappen lost it.
He's sat alongside Red Bull team principal Christian Horner and I think both men found that incredibly hard to watch.
