    Norris not just for the obvious reason but he could have passed Riccardo for the win if not for team orders.

    Tip of the hat to Perez for keeping Bottas at bay.

    Not sure about that. Didn't Daniel get fastest lap at the end? Hard to
    believe that Lando could have made a pass work, especially on this
    track. Unless the team ordered it.

    I suspect that Valteri was pretty much out of tires at that point.



    No, I'm giving Daniel my vote.

    Wonder what would have happened if RB had brought Perez on the lap he got the penalty and put him on soft tires. Would surly have gotten fast lap and a good shot of getting up to 4th.

    "Could" is the operative word, Dan held Verstappen who was in a faster
    car off for 20 odd laps, there is no reason that he couldn't have held
    Lando off who was in an identical car. Obviously if a team is looking at
    a 1-2, they aren't going to risk a 0-0 just because one driver gets to ambitious.

    Dan obviously, won the start, aced the safety car restart, led the whole
    way and took fastest lap. What more could you ask.

    He should though send a letter of thanks to Max for making the task
    easier :)

    Think you mean Hamilton.

    Really ?

    Well, after the penaly he didn't really need to keep BOT at bay because
    BOT eased off.

    It's a good job you're not a steward. Impartial you're not.

    That's not what the stewards seem to think.

    It's a crappy circuit for overtaking, so, using the same logic I used
    with Perez last week, I have to give it to Bottas. Shame the TV director
    didn't want to show us most of his overtakes.
