At least we have brundle up there.
Poll: Chinese Grand Prix 2018, Shanghai - Race 3/21

Very entertaining race, really happy for danny boy to win this. Ferrari and Merc got outsmarted during the sc phase but it made for a very interesting race.
As for Max, surely the number of times he has ruined races for drivers now warrants for a race ban, but gets away with a mere 10 sec penalty, not even a stop and go! He needs to take notice from his teammate in how to overtake properly.

Ended up as a good week for Merc but they must be worried about Ferrari's performance. Max needs to calm down, Lewis was much like him in his first years, going for every chance (crashing too much).
Vettal is going to be grumpy!

It still is if Ferrari continue with their quali pace.

Extremely dull race until after the safety car, then few fun bits happened. 6/10
Glad to see Danny win, max proving Lewis's comments right after last race. Vettel really isn't going to be happy.

Quite.
To quote the Prophet Walker - "Anything can happen in Formula One, and it usually does!"
I give it 2/10.
Because Red Bull's two cars got extremely unfair advantage over everyone else for the victory battle. When the safety car decision was displayed, the two leading drivers were already on the starting grid, so no chance for them to go for tyres change.
Extremely unfair for Max ten seconds penalty.
Maybe Ferrari can issue post race investigation because Max's mistakes are almost every race and ruin others' chances.

Didn't Red Bull kick Kvyat for less than this?

Ok it doesn’t look quite as bleak now as it did yesterday but Ferrari still look to have a bit too much for Mercedes this year
Kvyat threw Vettel out of the race, if we remember correctly. Almost the same as today.
Max didn't have any potential chance to overtake exactly there - the gap was too wide and he caused an amateur collision.

It's part of consistent pattern of poorly judged overtaking maneuvers that have resulted in incidents. For a one off, sure I'd agree, but it's not a one off.

What a race 
Max continues to be an idiot.

He put more effort in defending than anyone before him!
Say what you will about Bottas usually, but he's been brilliant all weekend. He's left Hamilton in the dust.

There was no gap. Vettel was half way through the bloody corner before he decided to banzai it.

This is a part of consistent business pattern of always seeking young, immature children for serious jobs. Max's decisions and behaviours are as if he is a 10-year-old boy.
