Not a bad start... Let's hope Rosberg doesn't run and hide, though.

We have a strange performance split here, Hamilton doing crap pace wise compared to Rosberg and Button crap compared to Magnussen, is this endemic of the mercedes engine?

Hamilton is out!!

Amazing Magnussen didn't wipe out Alonso at the start there.

A bit too enthusiastic from Kobayashi!

Battling might not be good for either of them - they really need to just cruise around and me there to pick up the pieces.
