Uneventful in the middle, I found this quite soporific, fighting off dozing. Until the childish Perez bit woke me.
Well done Lewis, a truly great sportsman, who does it yet again.

Well done Lewis, crap strategy by Ferrari
I try to absorb all this before Hamilton retires. Great for British sport.

Vettel looks crushed. His car is quick, he and his team haven’t been. This battle has really come down to the drivers and he’s been found wanting. Still a lot can happen, but Hamilton not just securing a points advantage, but the physiological one is all his. It’s going to soon be hard not to argue Hamilton is the greatest driver there has been, a lad from a Stevenage estate.

Schumacher and Senna might have something to say about that...

Of course, and going further back to Jim Clark, Fangio, Moss, those guys didn't commit to a corner knowing it might cost them a couple of tenths if they got it wrong, they committed to a corner knowing they might die if they got it wrong. However, like I said, Lewis is currently turning out performances that will make it hard not to have him well up that list.

After the first lap incident I had a power nap, then watched nearly all the rest at 12x speed.
Spa was good, Brazil will be good, the new circuits are largely processional dross.
Hamilton is at the top of his game, in the bast car, so the best package out there, but it's impossible to compare to the greatest of different eras. I still think Clark was the best all round driver ever.

Bottas is fourth, behind both Ferrari's. Do you think there's nothing in it between Mercedes and Ferrari this season? With Lewis simply being ruthlessly better than his rivals.

Hamilton has not had the best car in most races, he’s just the best current driver. He has destroyed Vettel’s confidence over the last few races imo
I’d like to see Bottas dropped for Ocon next year personally, as he really isn’t world champion material.

Agree about Bottas, good but not good enough for Mercedes

This.
Ferrari, as ever arrogant, came back from the summer break with secret car improvements they thought would crush Mercedes.
Hamilton saw them off, yet again. Mercedes too are a class act, getting on with it in an understated way.

Some great young drivers coming through.Lando Norris has Stoffel's McClaren place next season,Dan Ticktum might well be at Toro Rosso (in the final dozen),George Russell good enough to take Bottas's seat,plus 3 or 4 others.The future's bright for Lewis's successor when he retires.
Fingers crossed these are more Hamiltons & Buttons rather than Joylon Palmers!
Hamilton has been the bain of Vettel's life. I hope Hamilton has the hunger to race for years to come. Always immensely talented, in the early years he made Verstappen-like impulsive mistakes when on top. Ironing those out, he's now a nightmare to the rest.

Still think Jenson went a bit too early.
