    Could we have more races like this?

    This is basically what an average F2 race is like. (Minus the boring stretch in the middle.) I didn’t even plan to watch F1 anymore, only reconsidered since I expected RB to do badly. But unless RB was actually hit with that new TD, I can probably take a break until the last F2 race.

    That was a sick race. I had actually planned to watch the first hour and a bit and then start my tour on the motorcycle, as the weather was good.

    But I couldn’t stop watching. Everything was open until the very end, so many drivers could win so close to the end, so many different strategies from the start and new strategies mid race, half way a call that there might be some rain, lots tyres wear and drivers complaining. It was so good.

    I just felt bad for Russell at the end after such a good race. Then again Hamilton now made it onto #3 in the championship standings and switched places with Alonso. And Liam Lawson finished 3/3 races and now even go into the points. That looks pretty good for a rookie driver.

    Russel crashing was the icing on the cake in this race, honestly I enjoyed him crashing out in the last lap. He could not handle to pressure.
