    Not sure whether to be glad or sad that I don't appear to have missed much
    I think I'll continue to "miss" the races until somebody gets within .5 sec of the Mercs on merit
    United in diversity !!!

    7/10
    Good scraps from midfield to the back of the pack. The racing is pretty good when the more established drivers are in inferior cars. We won't see the type of wheel to wheel action if the Red Bull of Ricciardo & Mclaren of Jenson were more competitive. The main difference this race to Malaysia was the Ferrari weren't quick enough to under cut & split the Mercs. The temperature and the long straights favor the Merc engine with more grunt.
    Forza Jules! Forza Michael!

    I'd give it a 3 out of 10, the race was won after the first 10 meters. Verstappen did liven things up a little, as did Nico's whining.

    4, to be honest, and no more.

    There was only some uncertainty in the middle of the race, where Rosberg and Ferraris were closing on the lead and team told Hamilton that Rosberg would get the preference in pitstops if he doesn't speed up. Then Hamilton did speed up and nothing happened.
