Phenomenal race, absolute box office stuff. Something happening somewhere every lap, bold strategy calls, flat out driving for the win, chaos, uncertainty and some slick moves to boot. Albon's double overtake, anyone?

These are the races that remind us of why we watch this goddamn thing. I wish Norris hadn't gotten unlucky with the safety car but that's just me being greedy for the sake of the championship table. And Max really deserved the win too, he absolutely had to push himself for this one.

Will be a tough ask to top this race for the rest of the season.
