Darren: That’s completely on Valterri. Romain Grosjean got that completely right.

Rob Hill: This is the reason why a reverse grid is a terrible idea. When there are cars at the front moving much slower than cars at the back, big crashes happen.

My Old RE teacher: Toscana Grand Prix wishlist: Albon on the podium; Russell in the points.

Remember we are already down to 14 runners in this race with Nicholas Latifi, Kevin Magnussen, Antonio Giovinazzi, Carlos Sainz, Max Verstappen, Pierre Gasly and Max Verstappen already out.

We have raced only four corners in anger!

Rachel T: Well, Alex Albon won’t get a better chance to grab the Red Bull spotlight!

James Hammond: Do Red Bull have to answer to the possibility of putting a dangerously slow car out there? Leclerc nearly went into him, then the Alfa did... They knew there was an issue with the engine before the start.

Bruce Ha: Forget reverse grid, let's race in some random tracks every season.

If the safety car lights only went off at the final corner what else could Bottas do?

It was a really poorly executed restart to the race. Valtterii Bottas was slow getting going at the front, the rest of the gird eagerly pressed the pedal and a concentina and contact became inevitable.

The race has been stopped for the second week running. The cars will be heading back into the pits while the straight is cleared up.

"That was stupid from whoever was at the front! They want to kills us or what?! This is the worst thing I have seen."

The drivers further back think they are at full racing speed and then Bottas slows. That is a horrible crash.

Sainz is holding his wrist.

Bottas was weaving. Everyone was starting to go and slow. It just takes one person to get that wrong.

I am not blaming Bottas for the crash but he was very slow getting going after the safety car.

Carlos Sainz slammed into the back of Kevin Magnussen's Haas with Williams Nicholas Latifi and Antonio Giovinazzi also caught up in the chaos and out of the race!

Chaos.

Thankfully all drivers are uninjured.

The safety car heads into the pits! Bottas keeps the lead but...there is a big smash towards the back of the pack!

Debris all over the start/finish straight!

Lewis Hamilton checks in with the pitwall to make sure the tyre temperature is OK as he weaves behind the safety car.

Those on the soft compound are having their first stint extended by this phoney war.

The top 10 order behind the safety car: Bottas, Hamilton, Leclerc, Albon, Stroll, Ricciardo, Perez, Norris, Kvyat, Ocon.

There is a heck of a clear-up job to be done after that turn two crash that brought Max Verstappen and Pierre Gasly's race to an end.

We are still under the safety car while the gravel is swept up and bit of car are carted off.

This safety car is going to help a one-stop strategy.

That last-minute fix that Red Bull carried out on Max Verstappen's engine on the grid clearly did not hold under the pressure of race conditions.

Gasly had nowhere to go. He had contact with Raikkonen who then went steaming into the back of Verstappen. Verstappen is fuming but his race already looked in tatters. The engine problem did not seem to be fixed.

Hamilton is lucky to still be in second. It was an awful start.
