In a statistical wrinkle, this is the first GP since the 1968 US Grand Prix at Watkins Glen that the podium has been occupied by British drivers. Jackie Stewart led every lap in his Tyrrell-run Matra on that day, followed by Graham Hill in the Lotus and John Surtees in his 'Hondola'.

In the post-race media 'pen', Fernando Alonso was asked what it was like to be on the drivers' parade in front of all the fans.
"It was the best part of the weekend," he replied.

Verstappen in P4 but 16.778s behind Norris in P3. He won't be massively happy. Having the most powerful engine in Formula 1 was no benefit this weekend!*
*Note: this was a joke.

In the final analysis the gap to Russell was 19.561s. Then 4.158s to Norris.

LEWIS HAMILTON WINS IN BARCELONA!
And it's a momentous victory for Lewis Hamilton. His first grand prix victory for Ferrari, to add to the sprint win from last year.
Could he have won without the opportune timing of that virtual safety car? Well, it certainly made his job easier, but he was very much in contention even before then.

Last place at the moment is Albon's Williams, several laps down – he had a long pitstop while a loose camera was fixed.

Antonelli is behind the barrier but his car isn't yet. The marshals struggling to manhandle it through the gap.

Russell is 25s behind Hamilton so probably no need for Ferrari to put new tyres on, even though the margin exists.

Leclerc now into the pits to retire the car with two laps to go.

Leclerc also in bother. He reports his power steering has gone – and indeed, he spears off-track but manages to skate over the gravel and rejoin.

There's damage to the right-hand endplate of Antonelli's front wing.
But that's the least of his problems! Antonelli is slowing down. F1 TV's onboard feed reveals the engine sounding like a bag of bolts.

And as lap 61 begins, Antonelli gets alongside on the main straight. Russell shifts over to the right to head him off but it's not enough. Antonelli gets by.
The squabble continues all through Turns 2 and 3, towards Turn 4... nasty memories from 10 years ago for Toto Wolff.

Norris just falling off Antonelli a little bit. He was on the cusp of getting overtake mode a few laps ago but is now 2.3s off.
Antonelli is on the verge of being close enough to Russell to get overtake mode shortly.

Even if Mercedes were to order Russell to let Antonelli by, could he make up the deficit to Hamilton? Unlikely.

The suggestion from Antonelli is clearly that Russell is holding him up. But swapping them would be a bold move, and have big consequences.

Hamilton, meanwhile, is now over 10s ahead of Russell as we hit lap 54.

Well, it's not as if Mercedes are going to swap the cars around. Or are they?
"We need to pick up the pace here, George," Russell is told.

Antonelli in P3 is still in that 1.5s bracket behind his teammate. Norris still in the ballpark, 1.3s behind Antonelli.
Then an 18-second gap to Verstappen, who has a 1.9s lead over sixth-placed Leclerc.
Piastri well adrift in P7, 7.8s behind Leclerc.

Hamilton nearly a second faster than Russell on lap 48. He now has 7.1s in hand.
Looks like Hamilton is trying to build a gap in case he is penalised for that yellow-flag infraction.

Although that VSC enabled Verstappen to make an inexpensive pitstop, the same was true for Leclerc – and Charles is now closing up to the back of the Red Bull.
