OK Max, Vettel already reporting his tyres will not make it to the end, obviously he's on the ultra, Hamilton, Bottas, yourself, onto the soft, so it's just a case of nursing these now.

OK, last lap Hamilton, 44 .7. Make sure you don't bolt too early, Max. It's good to see you've got the grip there. Make sure you don't bolt too early. I think pushing every now and then is good to keep the tyres awake. In the meantime for now, probably just keep doing what you're doing.
