4 from me. Reasons are numerous, and all are boring. Save you the rant (despite my warm love for Italy, its songs, women, wine, and coffee one can drink at 2 am). Next race, please.

7 points. The rain was a big problem for several drivers. Still an expected podium. 1&2.

From now on, any time Hamilton is on the podium the race will get a 1 from me.

Interesting, but not really fun. 7, I guess

So a 1 for every race of the year then?
I rated it a well-deserved 8. I watched with my friend in the USA and enjoyed it more than usual. I think those drivers being gifted their lap was a bit of a sucky, but probably improved the race.

Hopefully not. I'm sick and tired of Hamilton and his luck.

May not have been luck. Both Mercedes drivers crash after Hamilton goes off? Just waiting for the conspiracy theorists to kick in!
8. That was pretty good. I'm only going to take off 2 points for the usual podium because I'm not a whiny cry pants (I'm just teasing, Mawerick )

7.
The first quarter of the race was great, as expected in the rain. But it started to dry, it got rather dull in my books (surprisingly - thought more people would go off or pass... but they didn't really).
Things got a bit more interesting after the red flag restart... But it was artificial.

I gave it a 6.... good start and part 2, but it all just seemed why . It got a bit tedious after the first f15 or so laps. Plus im not that fond of Imola. Dont know why. Too narrow and hard to pass without DRS.

7. Not as exciting as the last race, but still a good race. For a change, the correct guy (Lando Norris) was given driver of the day. Race was loaded full of errors, including three by Hamilton, one by Mercedes and one by Verstappen.

It was a tough race, especially in the early laps. I like the tracks like Imola with the grass/gravel outside the curbs, in fact, many drivers did mistakes. The Bottas-Russell crash was awesome, it's something we don't see every day, it remembered me how today's cars are safe.
I was a little angry seeing Hamilton on the podium after his error. I hoped the podium for at least one of the Ferrari

9. I like this better than Bahrain. Maybe because I could skip the red flag delay but this was action all the way from start to finish. I even quite enjoyed Hamilton coming through back to second place, despite preferring to keep him a lap down.
