Not entirely true, because he got hit by d'Ambrosio because he had to brake for said chicane. But indeed not so relevant, since the red flag was caused by Guenther and Wehrlein.
I do not share the harsh comments on the track. It is indeed not the best for overtaking, but if you think overtaking was impossible, ask DiGrassi or Lotterer what they have been doing then.
And what it lacked in overtaking, it made up by being awesome from turn 2 to turn 7.
The atmosphere was good. Where I stood watching the race, on the outside of the track at the downhill section, the people stood rows thick watching the action. In the city center, the usually quite tame sleepy town (Thrust me, I've been there before) was crowded and very cheerful.
