5/10
There were some overtakes behind Max, a reason why I am rating the race that high.
Only one McLaren was in the game, providing token challenge to Max. It was hopeless. People are most likely tired, I don't care what FiA or anyone else says. Too many human errors all over the place. Max was precise as this is becoming his hallmark, and relentless in pursuit his own objectives. I rate him 9/10 and The Driver of the race. The rest of them was just pathetic lot, one McLaren notwithstanding.
In numbers:
- Not exactly textbook race beginning. (3 laps in 0.5 hr)
- Attritions; only 14 drivers finished race, and only 9 on the lead lap.
- Hamilton, how low almighty has fallen. No tears shed in here.

5. It was decent. Nice to see Alonso up to his old tricks. I was disappointed with Lando not being able to capitalize on his speed.

I think I quite enjoyed it. I didnt fall asleep despite it starting at 4am, and then the first lap red flag added another 25 minutes or whatever to proceedings
.
There was plenty going on and the ongoing battle for 3rd between Checo and Nando was brilliant. Im saying 6 but maybe thats a bit mean.
Only a. 6 because a lot of the action was DRS induced and other stuff was because of tyre battles. But if you look past that it was fun.

And therefore i gave it 10 points. Max winning. Hamilton being humiliated in Brazil. Alonso on podium, Perez doing great.

Lewis finished over a minute behind Max and was almost lapped. Humiliated is a reasonable summary.erwin greven wrote: ↑6 months agoNononsensecapeesh wrote: ↑6 months ago 1/10. I refuse to raise my ratings for as long as Max keeps winning.

Alonso v. Perez saved it, so I gave it a 6. Pretty good racing in the first stint when the Merc's were falling backwards, but the top 2 was decided in the first corner which is never a good thing.

Whilst the winner was decided the moment that Lando failed to pass Max and the response from Max was to gap Lando, there was still intrigue and battles going on.
I found the Russell/Hamilton Radio BS to be fun, and Perez' drive through the 4 cars ahead of him was entertaining.

I rate is 10 - to have a podium finish with car next to the car is awesome. A lot of good fight also.

I gave it a 9 simply for the last few laps and the battle between Alonso and Perez. If only all racing was that exciting and nailbiting. I was willing Alonso to hang on, I felt he deserved the podium place and was happy when he got it too. He may be getting on a bit in F1 driver terms, but he's lost none of his skill or fighting spirit has he?
