5 laps behind the Safety Car and on full wetsRace restarts and many go seraight into the pits for different tyres.
VSC deployed - Wehrlein in the Gravel. Hamilton pits for Inters - so do lots of others.
Lap 8 and we're racing again
Bottas spins, loses a few places, but is still running.
Nasr passes Bottas!
Several people have spun, most are still running, though a few places down, but Harianto was not so lucky - he's out!
Hamilton (P1) has run off track - hasn't lost any places - Verstappen (P2) runs off at same corner so gains no advantage from Hamilton's error.
It's clouding over - more rain on the way?
Rosberg to be investigated, after the race, for illegal radio communication.
Brilliant, professional drive from Lewis under difficult changeable conditions.
Closes gap to Nico and sets us up for a cracking second half of the season.
Good solid race for Max.

Thanks Barney.
He hit a white kerb and destabilised the car, going off sideways. Looked like the car was fine as he hit the tyre wall side on and then drove back to the pits.
Watching/Listening to Practice3 and their saying new instructions about radio communication between teams and drivers. They'll be talking to Charlie Whiting about it at the start of the programme at 11:55.
What I caught suggested that the drivers would have to be called into the pits if the teams wanted to give them specific instructions about setting changes, etc.
I had to laugh today as there seemed to be a few quite amusing interviews and comments by drivers the commentators.
At the announcement of Sauber being sold off Karun Chandhok described Sauber as being at the forefront of F1. Now Karun's and my definition of 'forefront' must be different, very different.
"The leading or most important position or place".

It's a LOT wet at the moment. I have shed loads to do and want qualifying to start.
Seems like there's a thunderstorm at the moment.
Rain lightening, but Q1 might still be 15 minutes away.
we call that amount of rain 'drizzle' in Cumbria
