I really though Ding was having another 'freeze' on move 17, but no, he'd calculated it all.

This is the WCC that classical chess needed!

It's not as winning as it was when I last looked...

Scratch that, it's back after Ian's last move.

Ding just blundered the advantage?! Unfortunately I can't listen to the commentary currently.

Yep, didn't Qxd8 for some reason, which would've won the game. They are competing with each other for best and worst moves right now.

Wild. Yes lots being missed by both players but there's a lot to work out! The commenters are basically guessing the right line and checking by making moves and looking at the eval bar :-)

I seem to remember maybe a see-saw game 4 or 5 like this in the last championship which ended in a draw. Easy when you can see the eval bar!

I'm watching Nakamura, white is winning but many blundering opportunities for both!

I have enjoyed Nakamura's catch ups, but he's a bit too manic for me when I'm trying to work (I'm mostly listening to the commentary on headphones).
