Oh my word! Wheel-to-wheel racing involving Carlos Sainz and Marcus Ericsson. Sainz tries to creep up the inside of Ericsson but the latter holds his nerve to defend his position. Great battling.

Former Renault driver on BBC Radio 5 live sports extraKimi Raikkonen has been unlucky this season, and Sebastian Vettel seems to have very few of these issues in the other Ferrari.
Raikkonen does not look too pleased at all, through no fault of his own he is out of it in lap 27.

Lewis Hamilton is onto mediums and back out in second but Max Verstappen, currently in P1, has not stopped yet.
Kimi Raikkonen manages to limp back to the pits and pulls into the Ferrari garage. His race is over.

Remember, he had an engine issue in practice as well.

Jeremiah Kariuki: Bottas lost time at the pit stops @MercedesAMGF1, external are known for fast stops but how they lost 1.4 seconds there is unusual.

In goes Valtteri Bottas, mediums on but it's a 3.9 second stop. Is that going to cost him? The Finn comes out just as Sebastian Vettel nips past Kevin Magnussen and retains net second place ahead of Bottas.
If that stop had been just half a second quicker...

Image source, AFP/Getty ImagesVettel is in trouble because Bottas is going quickly and Vettel is behind the Haas of Kevin Magnussen. Surely that was too early to pit, he was not going to overtake Lewis Hamilton with the undercut.

"Push hard now, push hard now," Valtteri Bottas is told. Mercedes will be wary of Ferrari's attempt at the undercut and Bottas puts in a personal best.

Yep, it's the man in P2 who pits first out of the front runners. Ferrari slap the medium tyres on Sebastian Vettel's car and he is back out in seventh.
