Tricky one: in the end I gave it 8.
Primary reason was the spectacular charge of Verstappen towards the end.
Reason for not scoring higher: safety cars, of course. If the track isn't safe to race on, wait until it is. Don't trundle round behind a road car for lap after lap.
This was one time when edited highlights came into their own. If I'd had to watch the delayed start, the safety car bits and the red flag stoppages, I imagine it would have been a 6 or 7.
