Bottom post of the previous page:

Well, that was particularly processional. I saw one on-track pass after the first lap (Schumacher over Mazepin). Not only did they not pass each other, they never even tried. The only driver who looked like he was actually trying to race was Giovinazzi.

Anyhow:
1. Good work and pit strategy for Perez, Vettel and Stroll.
2. Very mediocre drive from Hamilton.
3. Good job of Norris to hang on to third.
4. I did not see who won driver of the day again, probably should be Verstappen, Perez or Norris.
5. Nice to see Sainz and Norris joking around in the post-race interviews.
6. Highlight of the race: Serena Williams standing next to Max Verstappen.

Anyhow, I gather Red Bull has one more Bendy Wing race and then we will see where they really stand.

Constructors championship!!

Two RBR's in front of one Mercedes. Take maximum points
Indeed RBR jump Merc in the WCC chase.


Constructor Points
1. Red Bull Honda 149
2. Mercedes 148
3. McLaren Mercedes 80
4. Ferrari 78
5. Aston Martin Mercedes 19
6. AlphaTauri Honda 18
7. Alpine Renault 17
8. Alfa Romeo Ferrari 1
Would have been 3 points clear with fastest lap
The board equivalent of the Jody scheckter chicane. Fast but pointless

Well, if they are not publishing the results, I think it is because Mazepin won the vote.

I didn't see a final vote tally, but was kind of drifting off toward the end. Did they actually give a final vote tally?

Thanks. I don't think they ever posted the final results for Spain.

Actually, I heard Mazepin did, which is why they did not post it [unconfirmed rumor]

I'm quite happy for Vettel. It was about time he got a good result.

OK...so the rumor is not correct, although I do note that Mazepin is 4th. I still don't recall seeing it on the broadcast.
