Both Ferrari drivers collectively at fault.

As a ferrari fan, this has not been a good race... :angry:

As a ferrari fan, it was a very bad race. Id say it was a racing incident which could have been avoided if someone told sebastian kimi was on the inside of max. that way either kimi or seb could have been in 1st place in the 1st corner and the race could have been more interesting. What has been has been however (I personally feel vettel doesnt need penalty points but wouldnt be surprised if he gets 3).

Dominant race by hamilton and as he said on the podium it would have been interesting to see him and sebastian go head to head (mercs would have been quicker in the wet, ferrari dry imo). Max and fernando could have could have played a key factor as well and it would be cool to see the 5 best drivers atm (both red bulls, the championship leading duo and alonso) go head to head.

Feel bad for Hulkenberg as he had the opportunity to finally be on the podium were it not for a strategic error and hydraulics issue. Palmer did ok finishing sixth but realistically he would have been 10th at best and still a fair bit behind his teammate. Sainz had a very good result and has more or less hinted with craig slater on sky this might be his last race with torro rosso (which would mean this was palmer's last race).

This season was shaping up to be interesting before the start of the race but now it is hamilton's to lose (and merc are essentially grabbing the constructors barring unforseen retirements on their part)

welp, Hamilton is definitely favourite. Hopefully the last 4 races are interesting otherwise ferrari and merc better just focus on 2018.

Also Palmer is out of renault (finally), sainz is in but no-one knows who will partner kyvat in Austin as the super formula final is in suzuka on the same day and gasly is only half a point behind the leader with 2 races (in 1 weekend) left
