[Mr Jack]

Now that was a race.

 

[Stumble Bum]

Great race, great result.

 

[Sparky]

Great result

 

[Emlyn_Dewar]

Any of the top 3 could have finished first and I'd have called it a good result today.

 

[utajoker]

Let's hope this isn't a 1 off race for merc and they have actually closed the gap

 

[Stu999]

Alpine scored some points.

 

[RevBillyG]

Best race for a long time

 

[pioneer2000]

McLaren should have won

Agreed, they all worked for it. Max and RBR did a great job recovering the weekend.

 

[iamtheoneneo]

amazing race. We should race here every weekend.

 

[booyaka]

Best race for a long time

Agreed but needs "outside influences" (weather) to make it interesting.

 

[Flibster]

I think Hamilton "expected" Russell not to lung and was caught out

Russell on medium vs Hamilton on the hard as well. Still don't know why they did a hard for Hamilton instead of the soft. 12 laps was well within it's life. Not a hard track on tyres.

Gutted Norris pit exit was just too wet, could have gapped Max in clean air, but given Max's pace once he put slicks on, probably would have been quicker than Lando.

But man Lando was flying on the inters, just needed another shower

Either way, great GP as always

Great race, Canada regularly delivers

How did Lewis just let Russell through like that! Toothless....

Lewis has lost his mojo

 

[Journey]

This is why we should have publicly controllable sprinklers at all tracks, bit like voting DotD, vote for the time to turn on the sprinklers and for how long.

I’m still not convinced the Red Bull has been reeled in as of yet. We need a race with perfect weather to see where everyone is. I want to believe it, but I’m a pessimist.

 

[Tejstar]

That was a lot of fun - best race we've seen for a long time!

hardly - Lewis took the middle of the track knowing the "risk" was the inside line on the damp stuff.... Russell took the gamble and it paid off.... Props to George more than anything against Lewis.

Its all right you can count on Perez to make the car look like ass.
Max as always single handily pulling Red Bull along.
