In fairness, there's usually a cool down lap. At Spa they hang a hard right and go down the pit lane in the reverse direction, so the early finishers are quick to get parked and get out.

Yeah I know. Still it felt a bit strange because we don't normally notice the cameras switching to the celebration before everyone completed the final lap.

Yeah that was unusual. I feel like they should have prioritized showing the finishers and then cut over to Max and co.

That coverage of the finish definitely left me wanting. There wasn't even as much a graphic with the final placing.

Maybe they were all just excited to get on with summer break.
