Verstappen tries to pass Schumacher. He does it at the second attempt at Turn 2 with a little touch. The Red Bull takes P10.
Tsunoda's dropped back a bit from Latifi now, but Sainz isn't making inroads on the AlphaTauri driver either.
The next target for Hamilton is Gasly and after that it is Verstappen!
Could be double trouble for Alfa Romeo on a day where points could go to anyone. Raikkonen also under investigation.
Vettel's cut the deficit to Ocon a bit now, as the Aston Martin driver wants to snatch the lead here. Ocon's doing a good job out front, though.
10 second Stop/Go Penalty for Giovinazzi for speeding in the pit lane.

"If you need to compromise my race to help Nicky, do it," Russell tells Williams. Smells like team spirit there.
Hamilton has taken P13 from Giovinazzi.
Vettel's matching Ocon on pace, the gap sitting at 1.4s between the two.
Hamilton is all over the back of Giovinazzi now in the battle for, wait for it, P13.
Mazepin is out of the race now after a collision in the pits. Appears an unsafe release from Alfa Romeo with Kimi Raikkonen contributed to this. It is being investigated.
Ocon's now extending the lead over Vettel, which stands at 1.2s. Latifi's a further 6s back, and has built a one-second buffer over Tsunoda.
Hamilton has his work cut out now. He's last of the remaining runners in P14.
Latifi's holding off Tsunoda for third! Russell had to give up the places by the FIA, hence why he's dropped down to seventh.
Pit stop
Hamilton pits for mediums - and Ocon takes the lead!
Russell has an issue he's dropped from P2 to P7 now.
Russell gets up to second! Ocon, Vettel and Latifi your top five! What even is this?!
Lights out
Here we go, I guess!
It's going to be Hamilton on the grid on his own!
This is going to be hilarious, everyone's about to box...
Breaking news
It'll be a standing start.
Green flag

Amazingly Latifi has made up the most places from this. He is up a cracking 12 spots and sits in P6.

The race will resume in about 15 minutes' time.
Alfa Romeo are fitting a new nose and front wing on Kimi Raikkonen's car. The Finn emerged ninth after all that.
Also appears Lando Norris may be facing an unsafe release having been sent out directly in front of Giovinazzi.
Huge damage to Norris' floor - his McLaren has been wheeled back into the garage to try and whip it back into shape.
Stroll played a bit of a role in that Turn 1 chaos. The Aston Martin driver damaged his nose after contact with Leclerc.
So that's shaken things up a bit, hasn't it? Ocon, Vettel et al made big progress by arriving late on the scene and nipping down the inside.
Gasly, Ricciardo, Verstappen, Mazepin, Norris and Giovinazzi complete the runners left.
As it stands, the order is thus: Hamilton leads from Ocon, Vettel third, from Sainz, Tsunoda, Latifi, Alonso, Russell, Raikkonen and Schumacher - that's your top 10.
Verstappen returned from the pits after his stop in P13.
Red Bull confirms Verstappen has lost his right hand side barge-board.
