Daniel Ricciardo is still yet to pit. But he may not want to give up the race lead because he won't be seeing that for a long time... probably.

Former Renault driver on BBC Radio 5 liveIt could rain here but the track temp is 34C. It's still pretty warm, so it's going to have to rain a lot to wet the track enough for intermediate tyres.

Engineer: "Ok Marcus you might see some drop of rain in the next five minutes."

End of twitter post'Ferrari are snookered'published at 13:50 Greenwich Mean Time 25 November 2018
Jolyon Palmer
Former Renault driver on BBC Radio 5 liveThat's Ferrari snookered. Raikkonen out of the race, Vettel has stopped and is nowhere near Bottas. Hamilton has a nice cushion. Ferrari dealt with, but Red Bull could end up being the main threat to Mercedes here.

Kayleigh: I love it when people call a 3.7 second stop slow The only thing I could do in 3.7 seconds is blink probably.
Inge: It'll take me 3.7 days to change one tyre, when very fast.
Jeroen: All aboard the hype train: #Leclerc heading for the podium.
Simon Farrow: Poor Kimi, that's not the ideal way to end his time with Ferrari.
Rachel T: Proof, if we needed it, that F1 remains a dangerous sport - but those safety measures are incredible for Hulk to be able to walk away from that.

That Ferrari pitstop was a bit rubbish. The boss, Maurizio Arrivabene looks on unimpressed.
'Slow stop for Vettel'published at 13:45 Greenwich Mean Time 25 November 2018
Jack Nicholls
Radio 5 live Formula 1 commentatorThe rear right looked a little slow to go on during that stop for Vettel. He's lost about a second there, and he emerges behind Esteban Ocon. But he quickly gets past him and back up to fifth.

Nathan Marzan: Mercedes strategy guys trying to justify their pay? Unnecessary stop. Tyres were fine and everyone else on same strategy. Now Hamilton will be under pressure at the end again.
Daniel Eckersley: Cheeky podium for Leclerc on the cards? Left the pits ensconced in the midfield so needs to get his elbows out sharpish.

Verstappen is in fourth behind Daniel Ricciardo, and attempted to use DRS on his team-mate, but weirdly he's still on hypersofts. He's got the magical touch with managing his tyres.
News on Hulkenbergpublished at 13:42 Greenwich Mean Time 25 November 2018
He is in the medical centre and they say "no obvious injuries, he's a bit shaken up but he's going to be observed for a time and then released".
