Nico begins to be slightly faster than Lewis but Max is even faster.

Turn 1 catching out just about everyone.

Merc appears to follow just fine through turbulent wake. Red Bull's barn door rear wing also appears not to be affecting their top speed.

Will anybody at the front pit again? If not, will Rosberg be killing his tyres trying to catch Hamilton having fought with Vestappen for so long?

Back markers are having an effect too judging by the yo-yo lap times that Hamilton is doing.

Track position is king at this stage. Time gained from tyres won't be had back via pit lane loss.
Rosberg is approaching traffic now too....

The leader always looses out slightly as the back marker is then more prepared for the following leaders, if that makes sense. It can be track specific though as some tracks are naturally more "overtakey".

Will Rosberg get penalised for the pit radio info? Would that be "safety" related?

Are we seeing Mercedes rebelling against the retarded radio regulations?

Poor Nico could get a penalty
