I voted for Ferrari too.
Mercedes was faster (as was to be expected) but for once, Ferrari tried different tactics.
In the end it didn't work out, but it might have
* handed the victory to Kimi (if Hamilton decided to stop too)
* handed the victory to Vettel (if Hamilton stopped too, but too late so he got jumped/undercut)
* handed the victory to Vettel if Hamiltons tires didn't last.
It didn't really make a difference after all, but good on them for trying.
Other than that, Mercedes was pretty much a one-car team. Red Bull too. Renault too.
IMO, Force India could have handled the Ocon-Perez situation somewhat better, now they lost points to Sainz.
