Jolyon Palmer may have mentioned he has part of his old GP2 car in his bedroom, of the nosecone type...

Roxy: Points added if a guy has race stuff in his bedroom, as long as its not too much stuff. A nose cone is about right.

Jake Sanson: If Carlsberg did commentary teams...... #BBCF1 this is @bbctms at 200mph

Tracey Pankhurst: I think the nose sounds cool but I’d be disappointed that it wasn’t signed by Grosjean!!! (sorry @JolyonPalmer)

Trish: show me your nosecone sounds obscene....

Karen Waddy: Best ever chat-up line - "Would you like to see my nose cone?"

Max is fourth, but can he go to the end?

Verstappen: "My pedal is almost at the floor."

You get the feeling that the excitement in this one is not too far away. Stay with us.

Oliver Lincoln: Bottas looking completely off the boil. Far too hesitant and not pacey enough. Merc need a new driver alongside Lewis

Koome Erick: Danny Ric is really having fun!!

We could still have a very tasty battle for top spot. Lewis Hamilton had closed to eight tenths off of Sebastian Vettel but goes a bit wide to lose a little bit of time.

Bottas, helped by a handy tow, goes wide on the straight and is just too fast for Daniel Ricciardo. The Australian's resistance is finally broken. Ricciardo is now sixth, with Nico Hulkenberg seventh. Bottas fifth.

Engineer: "Valtteri, take another go."

He's trying to get ahead of Daniel Ricciardo, but the Australian is holding off the attack.

I gave this the massive build up early on saying this was going to be the race of the season. Don't make me look silly, lads.

We've got 33 laps. We want gold standard, frantic, crazy stuff for the rest of this race.

Thanks.

Every race, every race... just defend the inside Romain! He never defends, he always turns in on the inside and then complains about it!

Grosjean: "Report that [the wheel bump with Perez] to race control."

Leclerc started this race on to the mediums and they were good for 33 laps and on to the hard tyres. We are now back where we started with Vettel and Hamilton one-two.

Leclerc comes back out in fourth.

Marc Sepetowski: This could be interesting with Leclerc going long. Hamilton has struggled with medium tyres so far this year, if he can't light them up, we could be on for a Ferrari 1-2.

Sergio Perez and Romain Grosjean bump wheels, but it's a brave move from the Mexican who jumps up to 13th. Grosjean not impressed with that kiss though.

Antonio Giovinazzi had a smash in practice on Friday, he very nearly had enough one just now. He spins and slides and finds grass, not wall. The wheels are spinning like crazy and he just about gets himself out of the mud and back into the race. He's 11th though and now out of the points.

Leclerc might as well go long because he's got 18 seconds to Bottas who is the next man on track (not including Vettel and Hamilton).

Engineer: "We are going long, try to keep this pace."
