PASTOR MALDONADO WINS!! Incredible joy for Williams! Only Frank Williams keeps his cool! Alonso second, Raikkonen third.
66/66
Final lap! We are seconds away from an incredible result!
65/66
Maldonado's lead is up to 3.3 seconds - it's his to lose now, surely. What a moment for Williams and for Venezuela!
64/66
Sebastian Vettel is past Rosberg and into sixth place.
63/66
Alonso is losing grip, and it looks like Pastor Maldonado is going to hang on and win this race. Kimi Raikkonen is 9.0 seconds back.
62/66
It's now a 2.3 second gap between Maldonado and Alonso - has he broken the Ferrari man?
61/66
I tell you what, that Chelsea crest on the front of the Sauber is very distracting. Still, if you want to come sixth...
60/66
Over the line again, and what happened on that lap? Maldonado is 1.4 seconds clear! Raikkonen continues to close but remains 12 seconds adrift with seven laps to go.
59/66
Ferrari talk to Alonso over the radio, giving him permission to gun the engine to its maximum 18,000 revs. Vroom. Raikkonen is catching at 1.5 seconds/lap!
58/66
Down the start-finish straight again, and still Alonso is at bay. Raikkonen just 14.8 seconds back and he could be a real contender based on pit stops.
57/66
Maldonado eight tenths ahead as they cross the line... Alonso not close enough to make a move, though the DRS down the straight helped him close the gap.
56/66
Alonso is back in the DRS zone, 0.9 seconds behind Maldonado.
55/66
Raikkonen is 17 seconds off the lead, and in touch only if the leading cars both pit and he does not. Even then, it's a very long shot.
54/66
You have to imagine, if this were old school Ferrari, they might have made Maldonado's life a bit more difficult when he tried to lap Massa. Suppose you can't really do that sort of thing any more.
53/66
Maldonado noses his way past Massa and extends his lead to over a second, so no DRS for Alonso. Nice work from the Williams man.
52/66
Sky's Ted Kravitz reports that Williams do not intend to pit Maldonado again! This is all set for a fascinating finish.
51/66
Alonso is well within the DRS zone, as Raikkonen posts a fastest lap of 1:26.938.
50/66
Alonso has a go at Maldonado at turn one, but can't edge in front. He is all over the Venezuelan, though.
49/66
Raikkonen has just pitted, and there is just a tiny chance that if he can eke his tyres out until the end he could nick this.
