I have a feeling the title will be decided by the end of lap 1 by Vettel being a plum for the 15th time this season.

Very good start from Hamilton and very professional and careful through the first few corners. Great stuff!

Ricciardo could be a good rear gunner for hamilton.

Ricciardo fluffing it pretty badly there. Bottas, not quite sure how he ended up behind Vettel after being ahead by T2. Vettel pulling such a gap on Bottas down the straight and Kimi passed a Renault down the straight I presume pretty easily. Think Vettel will get Ricciardo next lap or two on the straight. Ham probably will end up protecting Verstappen from Vettel.
Hamilton being very sensible.
I was looking forward to that fight, oh well

Quite. He knows finishing is the goal today.

vsc more like the boring option
He had the upper hand going into the corner though. He just gave up because he didnt trust Verstappen not to understeer into him. I think that's a shame, not necessarily Hamilton's fault.

Yes, I think he'd have stuck in against a more competent driver but, to me, that's part of the race craft that's taken Hamilton to another level this season.
