    as someone who doesn’t really know a lot about F1 this race was really entertaining in the start, boring as hell in the middle, and entertaining in the end.
    Glad for the papayas but man albon crashing max was such a death sentence for entertainment.

    also I watch on a dodgy site and chat is horrible but also hilarious watching with others so I leave it on before the the race starts

      There’s things wrong with F1 and you can argue about the price, but if you like watching the feeder series and or better summaries, I really would advise giving F1tv a shot.

      Yeah unfortunately with how the turbulence behind the cars can affect the performance of the car that is close behind another car, they can’t keep up these close battles we saw in the beginning for very long. Basically if a car can race very close to another car but can’t pass it within something like 10 laps they have to give up and switch to a strategic pass via a pit stop. Otherwise the tires will degrade faster than of the car in front.

      It was Kimi Antonelli that crashed into Max! Glad you enjoyed the race! A lot of races can get a bit stale in the middle as people are doing their longer runs, and the strategy comes into fruition at the end.
