I honestly thought that was utterly boring. Commentators getting louder and higher pitched all the way through about overtakes that were never going to happen. Poor race, and Harry should never be allowed near an F1 mic again.

Highlight is Gunther doing the interviews.
 
Very decent race. Frustrating at times. Fantastic drive from Piastri. Fully deserved win! Just wish he had more personality on screen.

Perhaps F1 is not for you if you couldn't enjoy that.

Bizarre.

There were twenty laps (or however many) of Charles trying to overtake Oscar. He was within DRS range for most of it and it was clear he was never getting past.

The same was happening all the way through the field. Overtaking just wasn’t practical.

I think Harry’s voice almost reached the level that only dogs could hear him. People complain about David Croft getting excited, he has nothing on this guy. It was probably this which frustrated me more than anything else.

I actually like Piastri's style. Cool, calm and collected. Focus is clearly on his driving and not being anyone's friend, a style merchant, a moaner, spoilt child. Look at Kimi Iceman Raikkonen... Spoke the least and was still quick and loved by many.
 
Enjoyed that a lot.

McLaren really challenging Reb Bull
Leclerc very good and a bit unlucky again.
Good points finish for Alonso.
Alonso beats Hamilton.
Russell beats Hamilton.
Leclerc beats Hamilton.

Should have given it a 9 instead of an 8 tbh.

Ok so initially not the best but from half distance it was a three way battle for P1. I don't think you can expect much more on these kind of circuits. I think you are being overly critical for the sake of it.

Boring... Very talented driver and an amazing prospect for the future, but still boring.
