Good morning, and welcome to our LIVE coverage of the Japanese Grand Prix. If you're a fan of the safety car, this is certainly the race for you - it's pouring it down.

Live commentary on this race will finish now, but do please keep an eye on the site for updates on Jules Bianchi's condition. Thank you for your company this morning.

Indications seem to be that Bianchi didn't go to hospital in the helicopter due to the weather conditions.

Sauber have confirmed that Adrian Sutil is fine.

Nigel Mansell does the honours for the podium interviews, Lewis Hamilton says a couple of words of Japanese, but this is an awful end to a very difficult day. Bianchi is unconscious and has gone to the ambulance with a police escort, but not in the helicopter - the FIA press officer has said there is no more news yet.

The three on the podium - Hamilton, Rosberg and Vettel - clink their bottles of champagne, but no smiles here.

National anthem on the podium but this is a very subdued kind of finish.

Reports now suggesting that Sutil says that Bianchi hit the recovery truck.

Gary Hartstein, a former F1 doctor, comments on Twitter that he is concerned if there is no champagne on view, and that was always his indicator that an incident had been serious.

Reporters from the track are indicating that the helicopter is being readied to airlift Jules Bianchi to the hospital.

Some are commenting on the failure of the television broadcasts to show replays of Bianchi's crash or the ambulance attending the scene. I would argue that's not an oversight, it's simply tasteful.

You can tell this is a big deal; Hamilton and Rosberg are looking worried and are talking quietly to each other.

The official classification has cut off at the end of Lap 44, meaning that Alonso is the only starter who isn't listed as finishing.

Low-key celebration and waves from the Mercedes team, acknowledging the support they've received.

Apparently Marussia have had to force their way into the medical centre to join Bianchi. It sounds like utter chaos.

So Hamilton wins, but it doesn't really seem that important at the moment.

The race is over.

The track reporters are suggesting that Bianchi's team aren't being allowed to see him quite yet, and he didn't respond to a radio message, although that doesn't necessarily mean anything.

There's not a great deal of daylight left now, so presumably this race will be terminated.

RED FLAG.

Visibility is so poor it's difficult to see what's happening.
