Summary
Live Text
Well, as Hamilton starts spraying people with champagne, Perez goes to hug everyone from his team and Ricciardo... quietly hands off his helmet and stands alone, we will wrap up our live coverage.
Stick with us for reaction from this race, as well as the 100th running of Indy 500.
See ya.

See ya.
The very familiar combo of UK anthem - German anthem is ringing out now.
The Aussie is forcing a smile on the podium now, but that won't be fooling anybody.
Sergio Perez is jubilant, having banked his third podium with Force India to add to his three Sauber podiums.
Ricciardo, on the other hand, is the gloomiest he's ever looked.
Justin Bieber congratulates Hamilton at the end of the race, I believe, on "crushing that".
Quote
"Save it. Nothing you can say can make it better."
That's Ricciardo's reaction to today's second place. Win four was his for the taking.
That's Ricciardo's reaction to today's second place. Win four was his for the taking.
So that's seventh for Rosberg, eighth for Sainz, ninth for Button and P10 for Felipe Massa.
Hulkenberg passes Rosberg for P6!
Alonso coasts to fifth place.
Vettel fourth, Alonso a minute behind, so wait a bit.
Ricciardo second, Perez picks up Force India's first podium of the year in third.
His second Monaco win - again from third on the grid, again with the help of rain.
Chequered Flag
Lewis Hamilton wins the 2016 Monaco Grand Prix.
One more sector.
Hamilton laps Sainz, the Spaniard running in P8.
Ricciardo now five seconds behind Hamilton, he'll just try to bring the car home. Hamilton still looks like he's pushing.
Rain
There's definitely rain.
Two to go. Status quo maintained out front.
3.3s between Hamilton and Ricciardo - the Red Bull was quicker that time around. Three laps to go.
The TV director is subtly hinting that the race is over by showing Nico Rosberg.
Rosberg has given up trying to pass Alonso, while Vettel is within a second of Perez.
Four laps to go. Ricciardo again slower that time around.
Four seconds between Hamilton and Ricciardo.
Five laps to go, Hamilton's geriatric ultrasofts are just about quickest of all right now.
You can see the raindrops now, but they're unlikely to make much of an impact.
That might be it - the Red Bull is now losing time in all three sectors.

Stopwatch
Fastest lap by Hamilton: 1:17.9 on ultrasofts with 40 laps on them.
Hamilton called the ultrasofts "supersofts painted purple" earlier this weekend. Bet you anything he's pretty thankful for that now.
Ricciardo's not gaining just yet.
Alonso reports rain over the radio.
Hamilton looks to have gained around a second on that VSC restart.
Green Flag
And green.
How very NASCAR-esque, although it is quite a big bag.
Yellow Flag
VSC for the trashbag.
Replays show a.... trashbag landing on approach to Ste Devote? Okay.
