Difficult one to rate, because it was bordering on a 2/10 until the rains came.

80% lame and the weather, Seb's nonsense, Kimi questioning and wanting Jock Clear to say the words made it a fun ending. Mercedes team orders spoilt any excitement in the end. I feel a 5 is a bit too generous. (I have not voted yet but im in the 4-5 zone atm.)

I'm extremely generous and giving it a six, on account on lots of stuff going on during the last 25 laps.

5, because the first 65% of the race was a 3 at best, and the last 35% was a 7, with the rain spicing things up!

I found it quite exciting actually. Vettel’s victory never looked a certainty and it did get quite tense. It’s also fantastic to be back in Hockenheim. I think this is an 8 by 2018 standards.

I went with a 4 in the end.... the stewards inconsistency was the decider on that. An interesting twist in the tail saved it. from less.

4. The rain saved it from being a 2.

You guys are harsh. 7 It kept me interested the entire way. It would be more if we had a Kimi win.
Greasy track seems to be Seb's weakness. He does not do well in changing conditions.

The rain that happened basically five minutes after they'd got onto the podium should have happened with 1 1/2 laps to go.

Weather as the saver for another parade that's decided on the thickness of Mercedes' brown envelopes is far too few to get any excitement from.

I enjoyed it despite the controversies. Kimi's late pitstop was the most head-scratching moment among many head-scratching moments.
For F1 2018 I'm happy that 3 teams are so close in speed, but the gulf to the midfield is ridiculously huge.
