Voted 2. Seems like the worst race of the year. Only Racing for Points Farce Indianna gave us any excitement. No lead challenge, a weak challenge for 2nd. No clash of the Fins. Twas a dull race...
Sirotkin should get a 1 race ban for being an asshat. Driving slower than snot and making a sport of holding up as many cars as possible (including the leaders at one point). Grosejean got the blame (and he also held them up), but he was probably seeing nothing but red trying to get around Slow-lap-kin.
Sirotkin should be give a 100 yard headstart at the next race as a reward for his expert mobile chicanery, him and Meltdownerez were the only decent things on track, they singlehandedly dragged the race up from a zero to a three for me.
I am very sorry if you find my posts long and boring, I like to type and often go off on a tangent.

Sir, your craft of the English language has reached expert level!

Sirotkin’s defensive work against Perez reminded me of DC versus Bernoldi at Monaco in 2001. I was half expecting Perez to ask for the stewards to penalize Sirotkin for having bad dress sense and a poor haircut.
I gave it a 4; not terrible, but not quite average either, the top six finished where they started, and the midfield battle was duller than normal, this race will only be remembered for Perez and Sirokin driving badly and that wonder qualifying lap from Lewis.

I only watched the highlights video on YouTube - I was pretty surprised they showed the start, one or two cool midfield battles/mishaps, the end of Max and Vettel's pitstop, then suddenly it jumped to the end of the race. Like, what happened in the 35 laps between?
Slept through about 20 laps so score might have been lower. While no fan of Lewis, I must say that from what I did see, he had the field covered nicely.
