I can now go out !!!!
By for now EC. :
Race Day:
I wonder if the weather will play a part today.
Or maybe that run down to turn one will be the big talking point.
both, probably!

If the Merc's take each other out, then Verstappen could pick up his second top step honour.
Looks quite dry for now

...and extremely hot by the sounds of it.
They have said it's a punishing day for both drivers and engines/brakes, something else to throw into the mix.
I wonder if Ferrari are going to overuse the tyres and end up with a puncture?
What a great start. Brill driving.
Button 
Not a good day for Button
Verstappen "I'm driving like a grandma".

Yeah. Lovely stuff!
Raikkonen's day is quickly fading away. I wonder why the Haas has not "allowed" him through 
It's hurting his race.
This radio communication rule is a bit daft!
Jenson really needs a massive downpour.

100% agree.
Here we go ...changing boots.
This Red Bull / Ferrari battle is great.
Lewis struggling. Wonder what is wrong.
It's all changing so quickly. Hard to keep up
At this rate the Red Bulls will be up the back of the Mercs.
Despite his pace problems I am always impressed how calm they sound at those speeds and fighting with other cars.
I sometimes wonder if Lewis plays out false info over the radio as part of his strategy.
The Mercs must surely pit soon?
Vettel and his blue flags - calm down dear.
Palmer.
Gut needs a penalty for that, too many ops to let leaders through.

As if by magic they listen to me.
Palmer looks like he's just lost his 1st points.
Oddly Hamilton appears to have restored the time that he lost.

Traffic by the sounds of it.
It looked like Verstappen moved twice in defending, but I think the first was just following the race line!
How can he see what Kimi is doing re track limits!?
Coverage on the leaders - gap down to .5 sec !!
For all these pairs battling, it's been a tough day at the office!
Kimi ain't gonna get through.
Come on Verstappen, only three laps to go!
What have we learned from this race?
Always start in second position.
Well done Lewis 
I think a few of the drivers have had a hard days work today.
