Poll: Canadian Grand Prix 2018, Montréal - Race 7/21

[ThestigGT999]

Driver of the day: Vettel

overall great race

wasn't bored like monaco

 

[CaptainRAVE]

Haha, 9/10? Really?

 

[MagicBoy]

Very much looked like everyone was cruising around and changing up early.

Side effect of Montreal being a power circuit, fuel flow limits, and the Merc runners running engines for a 7th race at a power circuit...

Genuine question (no troll I sqear) but what did you find as great? I'm sure I saw more over takes in Monaco than this race?

What brand of shoe polish do you sniff?

 

[RSR]

Even Max summed it up well...

 

[timmeh]

Hamilton just gave up at the end there. So much for pushing to the end.

 

[Flibster]

Race officially classified as finished after 69 laps.
Chequered flag was waved and that's it. So the last full speed lap didn't count.

Good job no one overtook on lap 70 then.

[edit]
Just changed again... now showing 68 laps....

 

[Aspecto]

Turned it off after Ham came out the pits on lap 17(?)... turns out i didnt miss much yet again!

 

[ThestigGT999]

monaco got a nine and this race was better.....

great drive by vettel, race was more tense overall than monaco

Tension? Ricciardo fighting with a dying car and cars close behind around Monaco was tense, there was nothing at all like that here.

It was about as tense as trimming toenails.

 

[Flibster]

Would the race continue if they didn't wave the chequered flag? Or does it end after the planned number of laps if no one waves it?

It would stop after the specified lap count or if the pace was low the 2 hour limit.

 

[utajoker]

gave it a 3, shouldnt have.

that was more frustrating than tense

 

[Flibster]

Right...

Should for any reason the end-of-race signal be given before the leading car completes the scheduled number of laps, or the prescribed time has been completed, the race will bedeemed to have finished when the leading car last crossed the Line before the signal was given.

Should the end-of-race signal be delayed for any reason, the race will be deemed to have finished when it should have finished.

Driver of the day: Bottas. Had about the only race-significant action of the front-runners when he defended against Max off the start and then did what he needed to do to secure second.

2/10 Very poor race. Almost no interest at all. Only gets a 2 because I have seen worse races.

 

[Deleted member 651465]

Considered changing my vote to a 2 for the chequered flag error. Realised that I would be effectively saying it was twice as good... slapped myself for being silly.

 

[NooBish AbbZ]

Wish I haven't paid £7.99 for the nowtv access. It's boring since 5th lap.

I cancelled mine a few weeks ago at the end of the football season. Happy with my decision at the minute.

What a ******* **** race. Canada normally delivers!

 

[Kanpai]

Wonder how many 7/8/9's this race would get if Hamilton was in Vettel's position.

Good set of results for the championship

 

[Mr Jack]

Looking at how the results have changed/how the points table has changed/etc you might think this is a really good season, but it's really not. It's just different teams having differing fortunes each race... it's not being done through overtaking/exciting racing/etc (I realise F1 has been like that for ages yadda yadda).

I'm not sure about that. Australia, Spain, Monaco, and now Canada were awful races, but in between Bahrain, China, and Baku were all good races. It seems to be very one way or the other.
