To me it was tame, too bad for Vers, but RED Bull needs to make sure there is no more engine issues. It keeps given MB podiums it does not deserve.
Same holds true for Aston Martin, and the handling of the car, both drivers having issues. Botas is sure doing his best, Williams and Haas also showing improvements.
Alonso looks very good, and McClaren's are coming back.

It's got to be killing Ham that Rus is doing better than him.

LeClerc was on point again.
I don't think they needed to pull that last DRS zone, and that supposedly hosed Haas and Alfa Romeo who don't have the same funds as other teams and only brought 1 rear wing.   Some rumors say that it was MB that originally cited it as a safety issue.

If RB doesn't figure out their issues soon, they will be too far behind to have a chance.  MB should not be where they are at the moment.

Imola this weekend, it's a sprint weekend as well so only three pre race events for the DVR.

Not as exciting as the others, but still a good race.  Miami in two weeks, anyone going?

Not a bad race, Ham has got to be upset with that result.  Can't blame it all on the car, Russell did well with the same car that wasn't set up to optimize the slick tires.  Tough day for Ferrari.

Bottas has to be extremely happy.
Everyone thought he was being demoted, when in fact, he is in a better car.

I was so hoping he would pass Russell and then do the radio call "to whom it may concern.....you"

I wonder if Toto is rethinking who he cut from the team.

I have to say, I was pretty giddy watching Toto being pissed off ever time they showed him on camera. 

I think Christian Horner handles not winning, way better.

I think this season is going to show what Ham is really made of, how he handles this season.

Well I also assumed that you would be flying us all down there and did not hear any arrangements being made.  Lucky for me I could cancel the wing of rooms I had reserved.

Very interesting race, not the carnage some were expecting.  Ves and Laclerk both drove excellent races.

Merc found some pace in Spain and they aren't bouncing like they were.  A lot of updates on all the teams.  Tomorrows race should be interesting.  A different  top 10 starting this race.
