Nice to have some different winners but makes the race a bit boring when it has no consequence for the drivers championship

It doesn't for me.

I've taken a different approach to the grand prix. It's not all about the race winner. Always fascinating things happening in the midfield.

Speaking of: How did Russell get ahead of his team mate? Nicky was miles ahead at one point

I thought the verstappen stop forced their hands as people would be setting quicker laps

interesting to see what the stewards do, personally think Lewis didn’t leave enough room

Yep he definitely squeezed him, pretty much what Max did on the opening lap. Sausage kerb made it a worse accident. But yeah I'm sure they'll punish him.

Same as the first lap incident

I think the difference is this was in the corner. Verstappen squeezed into the braking zone.

Looks good for the Papaya guys. Norris has a hell of a pair on him. Lewis pushes him into the wall yesterday and Leclerc pushes him on to the grass today and he just keeps his foot to the floor.

Bottas is much faster than Lewis (and everyone else) here. He could actually win this
 
It’s just racing. I can’t get on board with this idea that you can position yourself mostly along side, without the ability to cleanly get through the corner, and make it the responsibility of the person in front to compromise their position and essentially allow you past, as you would have to do to leave room in the middle of a chicane
 
Be great for bottas to get the win if those mediums can last. Looks like a serious weight is off his shoulders after the announcement. Relaxed and rapid.

I don't think he can now. The life will be fading from those tyres. Shame Perez didn't get a drive through. He's halted Bottas charge

Agreed. Moments gone

b***ks really time penalties in an era where track position is so crucial. But Dno what else you can do

Yeah it's tough. A drive through round Monza is far too harsh but after the pit stops a 5 second penalty seems not enough.

Very good team thinking from Norris. Asking is he can race Ricciardo

Maybe one more chance after the VSC for bottas?

nevermind.

Not sure why he's still fighting Perez. He'll never catch Norris and he's frying his tyres when Leclerc is close enough to pounce behind him. Sadly the smartest thin is to just follow and let the timing board give him 3rd
