    Sad to see that Mclaren is employing some Ferrari strategy: not double stacking a lap after it would have been ideal, choosing the soft tires over the mediums for Lando…

    Wow left Piastri to fend for himself. Should’ve double stacked like the Mercedes.

      I feel like he still has a good chance to make up a few places on a drying track. McLaren was rapid on mediums during the first rain period.

      This season has been a blessing.

      Considering how the season started, this has been the best bait and switch

    I didn’t know I can be this happy when Lewis Hamilton wins. What two years can do! The race was awesome, laps flew by with an unbelievable speed. It’s such a joy to be an F1 fan on a day like today.

    PS: Yet another Mercedes win in a row, who will finally stop them? 😂

      Toto and Lewis are friends. Toto and George are employer and employee.

    I’m really curious to hear why Max’s pace was so slow until the last stint. I wasn’t expecting him to end up second until then.
