Gave it a 7. That was drama filled. Happy for Nico,
good lesson to never give up. I give that podium celebration a 10! The podium drank out of the winners shoe! Bravo! |

8 from me, a bit generous but I was swayed by the Daniel v Max battle. Great stuff. And yes, best podium for a very long time....

Not the most riveting race but it had its moments. Good to see someone else win and a different looking podium. 6

Enjoyed it for the evolving strategy developments - would have loved to know whether Hamilton would have stuck with a one-stop as he was close to creating a pit-stop "gap". The brief Daniel v Max battle was great, of course.
Vettel's defintely looking accident-prone these days..... Gave it 7. |

8 from me. Plus points:
+ Using the "virtual safety car" which still disturbs the flow of the race, but not nearly as much as the real "safety car". + Vettel admitting his blame straight away and feeling sorry for Rosberg + Watching the tyre strategy swing to and fro during the course of the race. And although there were verying strategies, I never felt that I had lost the thread of who had stopped and who hadn't. + Rosberg's pass on Raikkonen (obviously I enjoyed it more than the stewards). + Ricciardo and Verstappen on "that lap". |

I'm surprised by the largely underwhelmed reactions here. By today's generally dull standards, it was a cracker. Has to be 9.

Gave it a 9 for variety. Just about everything that could, did. If we had a little rain I would have given it a 10.

I thought it was OK.
I must be getting senile, but apart from LH blowing up and the fight between the RBR cars, I have already forgotten most of the race already , so for that reason - 6. |

They seem to be genuinely be improving but do you think it is fattered by all the other teams having stopped development already? Probably a combination but I think McLaren Honda are figuring it out. They may just make a big leap next year...I hope |

6, ones to watch were Fred and Nico, and there was enough drama to keep us watching throughout. Hopefully the racing is getting better again

A 7. A pretty decent race. Rosberg, Alonso, Kimi and Max gave us some good entertainment with their racing. The Max versus Danny battle towards the end seemed like a bit of deja vu - think Vettel versus Webber, and multi 21! But, it was a good tussle. Quite a dramatic race with the amount of cars going off and the use of safety cars. One of the season's better races.
