8/10 for me. An enthralling close battle at the front.

It seemed to go on for a long time as well. Grand Prix distances should never be reduced.

8! Really exciting race; a few classic moments and what a battle between the top 3. Split by 3 or 4 seconds for pretty much the entire race. Loved it!

An entertaining race. Some good racing, excitement and unpredictability.

However, I still don't get why mid-race refuelling remains banned. With the current tyres and regulations it's all about pit stop strategy.

Why add in an extra variable like that? It doesn't add much to the spectacle, if anything. Also drivers have to look after their car on full and light tanks and use their fuel up appropriately right now.

8 for me - good race with plenty going on & the leaders close enough to each other that not a foregone conclusion.

Considering I would give the 1979 French Grand Prix a *10*, it was a 7.

Certainly an exciting race that was both good and unpredictable until the very end, great job by Lewis, Fernando and Mark.

10 for me, the race was exciting from start to finish with lots of overtaking right through the field.

8 - Another great race, although one that trailed off a little at the end.

Pretty entertaining - shame the 3-way battle at the front didn't stay a battle to the end - but I stayed awake for the whole thing! So it must have been better!

A 7 I reckon, as for me Canada was a 9, and this was a couple of points below (and I missed from 10 minutes in to 2/3rds - Sunday lunch.) Good race though, from what I saw.

Are you referring to a previous years's BGP? The German race was a significantly better race than this year's BGP surely?

More overtaking, more cars in with a chance of victory, less accidents and all on a dry track.

Began to fall asleep at the end, but was good at the start, and good in the middle. The end was a little dull. Overall a decent race though.

Race needed a downpour though in my view, the rain just never came.

7.

Another race demonstrating the dire straights that F1 finds itself in at the moment. From labelgate to chequeredflaggate a disgrace.

I gave it a 7. I was looking forward to the rain, but it didn't happen! Still good racing from the top 3. Plus the DRS seemed to be just right. Allowing drivers to get close to each other, but not just sail by.

Sadly next week is the Boringring - sorry Hungary!
