Sebastian Vettel has retaken the lead in the drivers' standings following the conclusion of the 2018 Austrian Grand Prix. Lewis Hamilton moves down to 2nd following his first retirement since Malaysia 2016.
The other Mercedes driver Valtteri Bottas drops down to sixth, last of the top three teams. Meanwhile, Kevin Magnussen's fifth-place finish means he jumps over Fernando Alonso to hold the 'best of the rest' position.
With just 1 point between the top two drivers, it's looking like it's going to be interesting as we head towards the half-way mark.
What do you think is going to happen next? Every time it looks like Mercedes will pull away, the opposite happens.

In the bottom half of the standings, Romain Grosjean has leapfrogged four places as he scores his first points of the season. Sergey Sirotkin is now the solitary driver who is pointless in 2018.
