For me a 6/10, much better than races here have been for a while, I wasn't sure who was going to win up until the last 10-15 laps or so. Good battle for the lead to the end. Shame for Nerfando Lalonso who was screwed by his pit strategy.

4/10. Kinda boring and the SC didn't really help either. Maybe if Sainz had won...

Didn't live up to expectations at all in terms of dicing in the field, given the mixed up grid.

Things very, very, very slowly more or less righted themselves in terms of the field. But felt like it was mostly due to the VSCs and SC?

7. Pretty ok race. Last 10-15 laps were nerve breaking.

Hmm after the first couple of laps after the final restart it was cfairly lear Max was fast enough where it mattered and was controlling the race I thought. Not taking anything from Max but after initial hope we had a battle for the lead Max seemed very much in control. Max was making sure he didnt come into the hairpin too hot and made sure he always got the exit just right to pull enough to offset the DRS advantage Sainz had.

Since there is no in-between, I will go with 3. But it was for me 3,5 out of 10.

Ill give it a 4..... but one of those points is for the qualifying excitement and the grid. I was a bit underwhelmed after the first couple of laps.

I gave it a 5, it would have only been a 3 or 4 if we hadn't had the last few laps with Sainz vying to pass Verstappen.

I usually really enjoy Canada, but it wasn't the best race ever that's for sure.

4 - the number of times I dozed off during the race. Although that may partly have been due to the fact that it was late in the night for me...

5. Some good, some bad. Went with an average score. But it was lower than I was expecting with the mixed up grid. I was hoping for a bit of tire chaos also that never came to be.

6 for me. A real mixed bag. Tense battle up front but also some frustration regarding Alonso's strategy and Leclerc getting stuck behind Ocon for a long time.
