This is up there with some of the most boring races at Valencia. Absolutely no action or drama or intrigue, except on the final lap somehow with Leclerc getting up Bottas' bottom and the battle between Norris, Kimi, Ricciardo etc.

Still, that gets a 1/10.

The last few laps helped it go from 1 to 2.

This was an act by la bionda brothers. They were recording disco music in late 70s under names such as dd sound or la bionda. At the time they were working in germany producing themselves and other disco acts. They turned as succesful producers and songwriters in early 80s. They are considered the inventors of the italo disco sound.
Try check their discography if you like that style

That video reminded me of this:


I Want To Love You Tender gets a 10.

Where's the 0 option?

Did not notice a race until the last lap.

Went with a 2. Lucky I got to watch Austria the day after.
