Antonelli is quick despite doing almost the entire race on a set of hard tyres. He's pulling away from Sainz (who is P7) and is now 5.6s ahead, with a five-second time penalty to come #F1 #LasVegasGP

Russell is struggling a bit right now, so Antonelli keeping Piastri and Leclerc at bay is helping that gap not come down too much #F1 #LasVegasGP

Top three look pretty set with ten laps to go, as Verstappen keeps his lead at 5.5s and Russell drops about the same gap back from Norris #F1 #LasVegasGP

Piastri attacks Antonelli with DRS but Antonelli holds him off, and a big slide in Turn 14 then puts Leclerc right on the back of Piastri. Good three-way fight for P4 on the track (but Antonelli has a penalty) #F1 #LasVegasGP

Leclerc pits and emerges just ahead of Sainz, but behind Piastri, so that means Piastri is a net P4 behind Norris.
Verstappen into the pits from the lead and it's slightly slow - three seconds... #F1 #LasVegasGP

Norris pits, smooth stop and he comes out close behind Russell.
Leclerc is ahead of both but yet to stop as Sainz makes his pit stop from what was third. Piastri gets Sainz as he exits the pits though! #F1 #LasVegasGP

End of Lap 21 and Piastri is into the pits for a set of hard tyres. Definite one-stop territory for everyone stopping now, and potentially even Russell #F1 #LasVegasGP

Norris now has a bit more clear air and sets the fastest lap. He says it's "miles better" having Russell out of the way and allows him to pick up the pace #F1 #LasVegasGP

Restarted, and Piastri is straight through on Hadjar with DRS. He clips a little of the debris that was left on the track so has at least cleared the rest of it! #F1 #LasVegasGP
