Decent race that for the most part, plenty of action, some really poor decisions costing Ferrari and McLaren during the safety car.

11 wins in a row for RBR. Max is always ruining things for everyone haha!

      All the top drivers have this effect, they make very good drivers look average. Alonso and Hamilton have a habit of crushing their team mates too.

        Except that one guy who defeated Lewis Hamilton in the same machinery to become a World’s Driver Champion

          He didn’t have the guts to defend it. He knew he got extremely lucky and retired. Was kind of a bitch move, though I understand YouTube was an exciting career change.

        Gasly was just never that good. Imo he is at most Top15 in driving talent. Compared to Max who is at least Top 3 if not 1 right now.

          Just like everyone else not among the top guys, he has his great moments and crap moments. He did get a win in AT, while Hulk couldn’t even get a podium during his 50 years in F1.

          Funny to say top15 this year when the competition is so fierce and almost everyone has stepped up so much. Last year I thought Yuki is trash, and now look at the guy.

          I think Gasly still has it in him too, but unless Alpine steps it up like AM and Mc have shown this year, we won’t see much of it.
