  1. Bottas told to get out of Hamilton's way. Will he do so?

    Douglas Mcfarlane: How quickly and 'if' Lewis can pass Bottas quickly will make or break the race for Lewis.

    Mrinal: Red Bull makes same mistake. They should have pit right after Lewis pitted. When they will learn.

  3. Hamilton two seconds behind Bottas in third.

  4. Team radio - Mercedes to Bottas

    "So.... pick up the pace."

    Reminds me of Mansell and Piquet at Silverstone in '87. Hope Lewis does a dummy as he passes Max for the win!

    When Hamilton catches Verstappen - and it is looking more and more likely that he will - he will have so much more grip.

    This is a real thinking person's game. It is all about how fast you think you can go on new tyres. It is a fascinating piece of strategy calling.

  8. Verstappen is going to be counting down these laps. Still 17 to go. A safety car now would be very helpful.

    If not, he might even finish behind both Mercedes cars here.

    Stick or twist for Red Bull? They could win this, but also so easily come second or even third or worse.

  9. Team radio - Verstappen to Red Bull

    "I don't see how we are going to make it to the end."

  10. That brave call from Mercedes to pit Hamilton for a second time could be a moment of sheer genius from them. It's got Verstappen worried...

  11. Top nine

    1. Verstappen
    2. Bottas +10.8
    3. Hamilton +16.6
    4. Leclerc +31.6
    5. Perez +46.5
    6. Ricciardo +46.6
    7. Sainz +68.8
    8. Ocon +71.5
    9. Norris +72.5

  12. 'Lovely from Perez'

    Lovely move from Perez. You don't go around the outside of Daniel Ricciardo very easily.

  13. Here comes the hammer...

  14. Sergio Perez has got ahead of Daniel Ricciardo with a super send around the outside. Brilliant from the current Red Bull man on the former Red Bull man.

    That's Perez into fifth.

    Cactus Jack: Red bull need to pit already.

    Danny: All this is, is a Bahrain role reversal, and I can't bear it....

  16. Team radio - Hamilton to Mercedes

    Hamilton: "How far have I got to catch up?"

    Mercedes: "Currently 22 seconds... we've done it before..."

    We are going to get a great Spanish grand prix.

  18. Oh this is going to be so so good!

    Verstappen is told that Lewis Hamilton is going to catch him on the final lap!

    Lap 45 of 66. Bottas in second is surely going to get told to move out the way when Hamilton gets close to him. Verstappen, Bottas, Hamilton.

    Get the popcorn and enjoy.

    Ambrose Shepherd: Whaaaaattt? I hope they know what they're doing..

    Nulla Pax: LOL - Lewis playing the mind games over the radio again or what?

  20. Once again Mercedes are able to work as a team to reel in the leader Verstappen. Bottas is second, with Hamilton back out on fresh tyres in third.

    Verstappen's going to have to do this on own as Sergio Perez is down in sixth, battling with Daniel Ricciardo for fifth.
