Verstappen closes on Norris at turn one but can’t get past.

Piastri has pulled out a second on Russell so is safe from DRS. The key time is the one between Norris and Verstappen.

Verstappen got past Tsunoda and Fernando Alonso.

Lights out! Piastri away well, Russell, Norris to the first corner but Verstappen moves up to fourth.

Martin Brundle is worried by gravel: there’s a lot of it about and it could threaten the medium tyres.
