Should the rest of the top six make another pit stop, Hamilton is the net leader of this race.
Postpublished at Lap 31/72

Oscar Piastri now looks under threat from Charles Leclerc, who's got slightly fresher tyres and is hovering over the back of his McLaren.
0.4 seconds separates the pair.

Lando Norris has got himself into overtake mode as he claws his way into a 0.7 second gap on Kimi Antonelli.
Norris has nursed his tyres well.

Alonso looks to be doing a similar strategy to Hamilton. The problem for him unlike Hamilton, is that he doesn't have a gap to come out of the pit into.

Meanwhile at the front, exactly a second between Lando Norris and race leader Kimi Antonelli.
Norris looks in better shape and has better pace now than earlier on.
Postpublished at Lap 28/72

Liquid Formula 1 from Yuki Tsunoda who puts in one of the moves of the weekend to overtake Pierre Gasly!
And to think, a week or so ago, Tsunoda was planning his next move in motorsport. Now he's back in Formula 1 and pulling off sensational overtakes.

Wow.
Nico Hulkenberg is up to 10th and looks like he's having the time of his life.
Tell you what, the fun and games are all in the midfield right now. "Bunched up" doesn't cut it.

Roughly three seconds between Carlos Sainz in 10th and Gabriel Bortoleto in 15th.
Pierre Gasly loses two positions in two corners to Arvid Lindblad and Nico Hulkenberg!

Lewis Hamilton has got a nice little gap behind his teammate. He'll have a nice gap to bring his tyre up to temperature.
Postpublished at Lap 26/72

A 2.6 second stop for Lewis Hamilton who comes out in sixth with clean air and a fresh set of hard tyres.
So Mercedes' Kimi Antonelli leads this race once more.

Postpublished at Lap 25/72

Great defence from Pierre Gasly to defend from Nico Hulkenberg in a crowded battle to get into the points.
Good midfield fight going on but at the front, Lewis Hamilton is told to box.
Team radio - Ferrari to Hamiltonpublished at 15:06 BST 23 August

Race engineer: "Tyre update when you can."
Lewis Hamilton: "Tyres are ok."

Antonelli is the one that can control the rest of this Grand Prix.
Postpublished at Lap 24/72

Lewis Hamilton leads a grand prix for the first time since his win in Barcelona earlier this season.
Albeit he's not come into the pits and is still on the soft tyre which, at this stage, are 21 laps old.
Ferrari started the weekend brightly. Can they finish it in the same manner?

Mercedes clearly feeling like those hard compound tyres are the kind that you want strapped onto your machinery on lap twenty-two of the race.

Slightly slow front right for the Mercedes when they brought in Kimi Antonelli. It just locked up a little bit, so they had to release him. It was longer than they would've hoped.

Top fivepublished at Lap 23/72

1. Lewis Hamilton (Ferrari)
2. Kimi Antonelli (Mercedes)
3. Lando Norris (McLaren)
4. George Russell (Mercedes)
5. Oscar Piastri (McLaren)
Postpublished at Lap 22/72

Kimi Antonelli comes in and Mercedes stick some hards on his car but McLaren are a bit slow and messy with Lando Norris.
Charles Leclerc's come in and has a set of mediums on now. Which means that Lewis Hamilton leads this race.

I don't think this means a one stop for George Russell. Mercedes told me early they were looking at a two stop for this race anyway.
Postpublished at Lap 21/72

So we've got 50-odd laps to go then and is that Piastri and Russell looking to go the distance? Surely not, right?
Meanwhile race leader Kimi Antonelli and Lando Norris look like they're coming in.
