Absolute chaos 
I am a Hamilton fan so maybe I’m biased but a 5 Second penalty for that is incredibly harsh imo, seen worse than that be seen as a racing incident.

Buzzing for Lando!

Great race.
Conflicted as don't think Hamilton deserved a penalty (look at his steering from the on board footage) but really please for Lando and McLaren, that last lap was something special.

Remember when F1 cars sounded like this, what a noise.

Great work by Tracing Point. They do look like the second fastest team- see if they can hold on to that status all season..

I find it quite funny what racing point have done, guarantee 3 or 4 midfield teams will be doing exactly the same thing now, which I suppose will be bad for the sport.
I'm actually quite please for Stroll. He gets a tonne of innuendo his way, and I get why, but he's consistently been up and around a very good team mate.

Not sure if other teams will do the same thing.
They would only have one season- 2021, before all starting from scratch designing a 2022 car under the new regs.
Also, Racing Point have a Merc engine so have designed a replica Merc car around that engine and setup. So that wouldn’t work for all other teams.
McLaren change to Merc engines next season so maybe could see their car design going a bit in that direction. And Williams.

Emergency work on Verstappen’s car, after a pre-race prang.
The Sky commentary team just said that Verstappen is THE master of the rain. For F1 regulars here, is that true? I’ve always thought of Hamilton as the stand out driver when it rains.

I just said the same to my wife, Hamilton is NORMALLY the rainmeister. Vettel is pretty good too, no idea where the idea it is Max has come from
Ferrari have been error strewn for many seasons now.
Got tyre strategy a bit wrong today.

To me it’s the ultimate leveller and test of innate ability. I can’t remember, but was Senna class in the rain?

Senna was awesome in the rain. In fact he was awesome full stop!
Ashamed to say I wasn’t a big fan until he got killed. A driver I loved to hate until then
i was so shocked when he died, it really affected me for weeks afterwards

Similar for me, only because I wanted Brits to win.
But I preferred him to arrogant and unlikeable Prost.
