The transformation is finally complete, Mercedes has completely morphed into Ferrari v2000-2004.
What a joke. |

It wasn't great. Reminded me a little of Oz this year. Alonso gave us some entertainment. The restart after the safety car was a bit exciting. There was some action track - but it was worthy rather than outstanding racing there.
It does look likely this year, with these regulations we are going to have it being do to pitstops rather than passing ontrack. Can't say that I am happy with that. I gave it a 5/10. It was just about average. |

For the first time in many years I didn't fall asleep. Not many nonsensical overtakings because of the DRS or tires, only a little bit of drama caused by the SC, I gave it an 8.

The first 15 laps were good. An FCY, the following pitstops and some good racing. Then it settled down and a good battle mid-field battle developed with Palmer, Kvyat and Alonso.

7 for me too. I found it significantly more entertaining than the first two (which means I didn't fall asleep despite 3 days at Silverstone and a two hour plus drive home before I watched the race!).

6 for me.
the penalty to LH was fully justified but i wish they gave him a pass on it in the hopes that we would have had a closer battle towards the end. but that would be manipulation of a proper outcome so its entirely possible if they had given him a pass i would have disliked the race even more. hard to please i guess. |

6 for me. Bit of intrigue, and some good battles further down, but not for the lead

Opening laps nuttiness and some early battles were fantastic. Then I feel asleep and had to go back and watch the last 10-15 laps. Bahrain circuit should be reclaimed by the sand and become a Dakar special stage.
7 for the opening fun alone. Everything else was a zero. Edit: Oh yeah, sparks are cool for anything 'cept pumping fuel.... |
