Little clip between Grosjean and Bianchi but both stay in the race.

@andrewbensonf1: "Round of applause in the media centre for that terrific overtake by HAM on MAS for second at the first chicane"
-
Ricciardo is down in 11th at the moment - not good for Red Bull.
11/53
And Hamilton records the fastest lap.
10/53
So we've got a Mercedes one-two at the moment now that Hamilton has moved past Massa, zipping from outside to inside on a turn. His team in the garage applaud.
-
He stays in the lead, nevertheless, but he'll have lost some time, and meanwhile Hamilton overtakes brilliantly, moving past Massa.
-
How odd, the replays show no lock-up.
9/53
What's Rosberg done? He's gone straight on down the escape road, not round the track!
8/53
Rosberg's team tell him what "the other car" is reporting. Apparently he doesn't even want to hear Lewis Hamilton's name, then?

Max Chilton crashes out, clipping over the curve and flying into the air. He reports that he's a touch winded.
6/53
Bottas had a poor start as well, slipping down to 11th from third on the grid, but now working his way up into 10th.
-
Straightforward overtaking for both of them there, with Magnussen helpless.
5/53
Massa is up into second, and Hamilton snaps through past Magnussen as well.
-
But Hamilton's moving up as well, taking up the slipstream.
3/53
Massa is being encouraged to attack Magnussen and move past as quickly as possible.
-
It seems to be a problem with his energy recovery system - his readings and the team's readings seem to be differing.
2/53
Meanwhile, Kevin Magnussen and Felipe Massa have also taken advantage of Hamilton's dreadful start.
-
There's a problem with Hamilton's car - they're telling him over the radio to change one of his settings.
