As nothing else has been posted, I figured I'd open this up to discussion.

A brilliant race, I thought. Lots of fantastic battles. An intelligent strategy from Ferrari. Not too chaotic or arbitrary. Albon fighting on 40-lap old tires for a huge P7.

How'd everyone else enjoy it?

I'm a Max fan but we need some more excitement for P1

Perez is nowhere and Aston/Merc just aren't fast enough at the moment

Good strategy from Ferrari? The end times are nigh

The strategy was scary! Maybe with Meckies off to a new team someone else is getting a say

I think they used all the bad choices with sainz… although I can’t blame them, a race here with no SC was really an oddity.

Was really hoping to see a fight between Nando and Hamilton at the end there, but I suppose that scrap for 9th was an okay substitute!

Great race. Loved those last lap moves from Norris, Ocon and Stroll. Well deserved DotD for Albon. Feeling bad for Tsunoda though, that 6.4 pit stop was painful to see.

Alpha tauri is a total shitshow this year. The car is bad, strategy is suspect and even the pitstops are hit or miss. Tsunoda has improved a lot compared to the last 2 years but we are not seeing it

It's a shame really. This is a team which for multiple decades punched far above their weight with limited resources. Nowadays it's impossible to cheer for them.

Unfortunately I wasn't able to see the race. I noticed that Valtteri scored a point though, so that was nice.

GG Albon would be my driver of the day. Good to see Williams not running at the back.

Was really disheartened so see Hüllenberg going backwards after bad luck with his pitstop. And Norris... Man, I really feel sorry for him.
