Rate the 2020 Grand Prix de Boreski
I guess I shouldn't rate it since I walked away after 20 laps, although I left it in the background. I came back to the screen twice only and then it was finished. I think that deserves a 1/10.

I gave it a generous 1/10. I have never seen anything so boring in race terms.
About as exciting as watching my toenails grow.
I was hoping to not be in tonight, to not have to endure it but our just lifted Covid stay at home curfew does not expire until tomorrow morning, so I was stuck indoors.
I was more focused on the N24 on my laptop than the GP.

I gave it a 3. I thought it probably warranted a 2 (because there was some passing, some incident, but not a lot) and gets a bonus point for Hamilton not winning

6/10
good start phase, big fight over last place, the number #2's really showing their number 2 status (Bottas wins after Hamilton penalty; Leclerc well ahead of Vettel; let's not even start about Albon...). Great to see so many fans: extra points for the organisation.

Nice to see fans but it is a risk.
I rated the race a generous 3...and 1 of those points is for Danny Ric's response to getting a penalty.
"Okay I'll just go faster"
No whining, just gets on with it.

It hurts a little to know how much they have in reserve. Pretty sure in the 1990s when I first started watching, they were pretty much flat out from lap 1. I remember those times when Schumacher put on a charge and he was practically doing qualifying laps to either catch up or create a gap!NorthernGrace wrote: ↑3 years agoNice to see fans but it is a risk.

Hmmm.... the early part of the race was led by the SC until lap 10. What was good about that?
Hmmm.... Hamilton received a 10 second penalty, lost the race by 25 seconds. Could not get within over a second of Bottas Fastest Lap, Or even within 0.8sec of Max's F/L or even George Russell's Williams. Bottas drove better than Hamilton today.the number #2's really showing their number 2 status (Bottas wins after Hamilton penalty;
What.... a third of a small grandstand amongst all the empty space. I reckon there were more F1 personnel and marshalls there than fans.great to see so many fans:
What organisation? They took forever to clean up the start mess. The place looked a mess.extra points for the organisation.
Could not even manage to persuade their leader to show up to present the trophies...... he cracked the shits because he was told he had to wear a facemask in line with F1 protocol.
Always gets the award for the least interesting and most underwhelming race on the calendar.

I wouldn't worry about the fans sitting there in the grandstands. It's probably ok outdoors, certainly with the added benefit of wearing masks. It's the whole thing around it which is the risk of course: crowding at the entrances, foot outlets, transport to and from the venue,...

4/10 - some interesting midfield battles. Bottas either stepped up his game a bit or Lewis' early pitstop and traffic really prevented him from catching the leaders. I actually liked some of the passes at turn 3/4.

It was bad, but not any worse then I expected. It doesn't help that it came after two crazy races.
