Really! Race of the year? Apart from the short lived Vettel/Hamilton dice, there wasn't really much to write about. And if Hamilton had got ahead of Vettel at the first corner - nothing at all to write about! I can only hope that Pirelli took note of that.

Not as interesting as if they had only turned up with the super-soft tyre.

Hard tyres tend to accentuate the differences in the cars a lot more. Quite often, the cars tend to spend quite a lot of time on this tyre during a race. If your car isn't good on that tyre, then you're in for a long afternoon.

This one's Kimi's to lose, I reckon.
