Engineer: "You are free to lean on the tyres now Max."
Lap 33/57
Lewis Hamilton has not pitted in this race yet and with this team-mate George Russell coming up behind, the seven-time world champion gives his blessing for the 25-year-old to go through and take sixth spot.

The gap at the front is not coming down very quickly.
It is going to be tight - a bit too tight, if you are Checo.
Lap 31/57
Is there a little bit of debris on the track causing mischief? One to keep our eyes open for as this might need to be cleared.
Lap 30/57
Carlos Sainz is back in the top four thanks to an easy pass on the Alpine of Esteban Ocon. At least the Frenchman is still in the top five following a dreadful start for Alpine this season.
Lap 29/57
With the championship so tight between Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez, that extra point for the fastest lap could be crucial. The Mexican has the purple speedy stopwatch camped beside his name for the moment.
"For me this pushing too much is not good for the tyres. I don't agree with this."
Lap 28/57
1. Max Verstappen (Red Bull)
2. Sergio Perez (red Bull)
3. Esteban Ocon (Alpine)
4. Fernando Alonso (Aston Martin)
5. Carlos Sainz (Red Bull)
Lap 27/57
Fernando Alonso is not giving up on a podium place that easily. The Ferrari of Carlos Sainz needs to be moved to claim fourth spot and, with a little trepidation, the two-time world champion completes his task. Fernando is in P4, Sainz drops to fifth and Esteban Ocon is running in third.
Lap 26/57
Oh dear. Usually drivers are telling engineers to stop talking to them, but Lance Stroll flips that on its head by telling his pit wall to give him some information on the race.
Lap 25/57
Max Verstappen is trying to give some instructions to his engineer, but Gianpiero Lambiase basically tells the world champion to concentrate on driving and let him deal with the strategy stuff.
Lap 25/57
Fernando Alonso has reached "minus 12." The Aston Martin driver is into the pits and comes out behind Carlos Sainz in fifth place.

That is a howler from Sainz.
He was desperate to get the undercut on Alonso and he was all locked up coming into the pits and he couldn't slow it down in time.
Lap 24/57
The crowd stand up and applause as George Russell lifts his Mercedes up into P9 at the expense of the Aston Martin of Lance Stroll at Turn Nine.

Tony: Hard tyres could act totally differently under full fuel loads over half race load... Could cause totally different strats
Lap 23/57
Decision in.
Ferrari's Carlos Sainz is hit with a five-second time penalty for speeding in the pit lane.
Lap 22/57
Sergio Perez came out in fourth but the Mexican is back up in the podium places in third after dumping Esteban Ocon down the order.
Carlos Sainz is going to be investigated by the stewards for speeding in the pit lane.
"Upshifts are not that smooth."
Lap 22/57
Max Verstappen, who started ninth, now leads this Miami Grand Prix. The Dutchman is on the radio though, and says his upshifts are not smooth.
Lap 21/57
A 2.2secs stop for Sergio Perez and he's back out sharpish on a set of hard tyres.
Carlos Sainz has put the work in since his pit stop and the Ferrari passes the Haas of Nico Hulkenberg to go fifth.
