00:00So the mechanics, the marshals, I should say, can clear this car.

00:16Yeah, that's the thing, it's transmission.

00:19This virtual safety car, sorry to butt in, Martin, might be really good.

00:23Let's just have a little look here, Ted.

00:25Now Red Bull are going to make a stop, an extra stop, it looks like, for Riccardo.

00:29Was it the right rear?

00:33Maybe it's loose.

00:36I think so, this is why I couldn't, the right rear, I couldn't see it from standing the pit side.

00:44Everything's fine at the front, but whatever it was, it was at the rear of the car,

00:49it was something at the right rear.

00:51Now Camille has reversed it.

00:53It ill afford, man, at any retirements from the top ten.

00:56And it's the sort of thing that we don't always pick up on as Rosberg locks up there.

01:01Big lock-up there, too, for the championship leader.

01:04Yeah, he sort of gave up the corner, so he didn't put too much pain into that left front.

01:10Yeah, and we don't always kind of pick up on these little moments.

01:14So much goes on during a grand go.

01:15Alonso down the inside, Masa had locked up, and then tried to close the door on him, didn't he?

01:21Tie to tie, wasn't it?

01:23I think that was very, very opportunistic there from Fernando, and bang on, frankly, literally, and very good.

01:30But I can understand, and also, when you sit and hit wheel face to wheel face like that, rest assured, it's entirely intentional.

01:42Felipe closed me over the door.

01:45I was already alongside him.

01:47Did Felipe just not expect him to be there?

01:49No, he came from a long way back, but that was for the stewards, obviously.

01:53Loose wheel had to retire a few laps ago.

01:56Fourth place for Sebastian Vettel, and behind him will be Fernando Alonso coming home in fifth.

02:02The head of Carlos Sainz for Toro Rosso.

02:05Felipe Masa should finish in seventh, the head of Perez Button and Grosjean completing the top ten.

02:11But a very timely win indeed for Lewis Hamilton.

02:15He really came for a third year in a row that those two have given us that 1-2.

02:21And in the 75th race, his team makes a 51st victory, including today.

02:28It's not a bad return whatsoever.

02:30Not a bad return for the British fans that have come here to Austin as well, and a lot of them in town.

02:3818 cars got to the end.

02:40We lost Räikkönen, Verstappen, Guterres, and Holkenberg.

02:45And Verstappen told one of the teams to keep going, which really brought out the virtual safety car,

02:54gave the two Mercedes drivers a free pit stop, and really hampered his teammate Daniel Ricciardo,

02:59who at that time was running close to...

03:02Just, you know, with the virtual safety car, he looked quite untroubled.

03:05No, I don't think he managed to.

03:06...once again, but we were kind of robbed, weren't we, of Verstappen's battles,

03:11Kimi Räikkönen's battles, Sebastian Vettel.

03:14Hamilton's done what he had to do.

03:16He's come here, taken pole, and he's won.

03:19His starts haven't been the best this season, but he got it right today, and he...
