Oh god, the post-race band might take it down to a 7..

They did suck. Not sure why, it looked like a military band. They are usually pretty tight.

8. Loved that last lap pass for the lead, but everything all race long seemed to be DRS passes, so it's down a couple points.
The RBR has really improved (and they have the better 2nd driver). It's going to be a good season. Championship should go right to the last race.

I root against the Mercs as much as the next guy, but this happens every year... We all get excited that this might be the year we have a new champ, and Lewis always waltzes in at the end.

It happens every year? Hardly. Sure, Mercedes always finish strong, but it's definitely not an annual occurance for Lewis to be second in the standings at this point. This is definitely more of a wobble than we're used to at this stage.

8 for me.

I expected it to be awful, but it was certainly interesting, bordering on enjoyable.

The passes were all DRS. Not really side by side stuff. But the strategy was interesting with the tyre deg.

I gave it a 7, I would have given it an 8 but the stripes around the track made it difficult for me to watch at times. Great nail biter finish and that pass by Max to take the win really made me happy. He totally deserved it in my opinion.

A definitive 8. This is the best season for a long while. Since 2012 maybe? It's so good to see two protagonists going at it with marginal difference between them. Even the battle for 3rd was interesting and McLaren coming through the field was entertaining too. A huge negative is the hyper colours around the track, like pins poking your eyes.
