Great race overall, probably equally as good as the Austria Sprint.

McLaren was the headliner and Norris rightly got all the plaudits for an amazing drive, but it's a shame more fuss hasn't been raised about Piastri. He would most likely have had a podium if not for the unlucky safety car and continues to show that the hype was not unwarranted. It's going to be very interesting to see what he can do in a car that can actually perform.

Aston continues to struggle, though this track was never going to be suited for them, and Stroll delivered a patented yo-yo performance by following up a solid showing in Austria by being very poor today. Alonso did what he could and displayed some great defensive positioning, but 7th was probably the best they could hope for here. Hungary should be a good track for Aston and so that's when we'll get a true measure of how far behind the pack they've fallen.

Shambolic race weekend by Ferrari, though their car seemed just awful here. Wasn't fast enough on the medium and couldn't get temps into the hards.

Not much to say about Red Bull, I feel like we've seen this race multiple times already this season from them. It was nice seeing Max at least briefly involved in battles, but otherwise it was another comfortable victory for him while Perez fucked his quali and executed an unremarkable bare-minimum recovery drive.

Shout-out to two drivers who will be forgotten this race. Gasly was doing really well until his car ~~did an Alpine~~ got Strolled, so it's unfortunate he probably won't get any credit, and finally a solid race by Sargent, but he didn't get any points so I imagine nobody will have noticed.

EDIT: thanks eroc1990 for pointing out the contact with Stroll was harder than I caught live and so Stroll was probably more to blame than Alpine.
