As nothing else has been posted, I figured I’d open this up to discussion.

A brilliant race, I thought. Lots of fantastic battles. An intelligent strategy from Ferrari. Not too chaotic or arbitrary. Albon fighting on 40-lap old tires for a huge P7.

How’d everyone else enjoy it?

    I love that Albon and Williams 100% played to their cars strengths, and nobody seemed to have an answer for it!

      We need to add Alex to the ‘tyre whisperer’ club. It’s one thing to stay ahead of that DRS train, it’s another do so when his tyres were so old. I’m so happy to have Albon in the sport. It’s a shame Williams aren’t in a place yet to have a good second driver, who could also pull shit like this.

        It isn’t some giant secret; they are super fast on the straights so followers with drs can’t get alongside, and are “fast enough” (but slow comparatively) in the corners that nobody can get past them.

        We see this pattern from them in every race; they always lead a long drs train, with the car in front of them tens of seconds ahead.
