Vettel on the slicks too. Him and Magnussen are now both on the red softs. Brave, very brave. He had gone from 20th to seventh, and Vettel is now 11th. All of nothing for the German in his home race.

Magnussen the maverick. Part two. He dives on to the slicks. Genius or stupidity? We will soon find out.

"************** sorry guys."
Could've been worse for the Spaniard though. He's still in the hunt for a point, but is now down to 14th, behind team-mate Lando Norris. Sainz had started seventh.

Charles Leclerc is on the newer inters so is much quicker at the moment, currently holding the fastest lap bonus point, but needs it to rain after his rivals pit for slicks.
But will they?

It's slippy out there. Carlos Sainz, slips, slides, off he goes. But he is a lucky lad. He comes to a halt metres from the wall, manages to get it going again and rejoins the race. He's still in it, just about.

Hamilton's lead is now at a commanding six seconds, but this is far from done with all sorts of weather carnage still predicted.

We're back racing. Max Verstappen then nearly collects Valtteri Bottas. Breathless, but brilliant action.

In or out? Nico Hulkenberg in the last session possible, dives into the pits.
