    Ferrari have won three on the bounce. Charles Leclerc is going to have to do something pretty special to keep that run going.

    "Gap now, you have DRS."

    He's still not close enough...

    We've had a lot of drama today, with the Ferrari tactics, but we're in danger of this being an uneventful finish with Hamilton winning this unchallenged.

    Big Match Matt: With Vettel we’re seeing a guy utterly found out. Decent enough with the best car but mistakes and sulking with minor pressure. He’s not in the same class as Hamilton, Max or Charles.

    Ether:Ferrari are going to need another overhaul of both technical and strategic units at the end of the season. That's at least three 1-2s ruined in identical fashion this season. Absolute shambles

    Massive ding-dong between the two Toro Rossos. This has been going on lap after lap between Daniil Kvyat.

    Gasly goes off track, cutting the corner and loses two places to Kvyat and Raikkonen.

    Leclerc has got the DRS this time around, but he's not close enough to the back of Bottas.

    Alexander Albon is up to seventh. Verstappen fourth. This is looking like a much better day for Red Bull than they expected. Kevin Magnussen is next for Albon, so shouldn't provide too much resistance.

    A good day for Racing Point at the moment. Both cars in the points as Perez is ninth and Stroll in 10th.

    Thomas Knights: Yet another race completely and utterly ruined by pit stops under the virtual safety car. Mercedes do not deserve to win the race today. In F2 you cannot pit as the advantage is too big. Do the same for F1.

    Not mentioned McLaren too much. Their drivers are fifth (Sainz) and seventh (Norris) at the moment.
