Let me rephrase: it was too aggressive for my liking but he did what he had to did, which was getting in front of Rosberg and not letting him back into first place. :PQuote:

For me it's Daniel for soundly beating his teammate, the 4 time World Champ! :)
For sure, and Seb drove pretty well. It is a welcome relief to see him struggle a little. :smokin:Quote:

Hulk finishing 2 places behind Perez despite an 8-place grid difference, that's a wee bit more impressive.Quote:

This was something I said on this forum I felt we would see this year when the cars became more about the driver than the equipment and it is coming to fruition so far. The spin Vettel had in FP3 yesterday was just embarrassing. In all honesty, over the three races, Riccardo has been vastly the superior and more consistent RBR driver IMO.
Hamilton drove a stellar race. The way he defended in throughout the whole race, especially the last ten laps, is why he is a WDC. He may not have been quicker today but he still won. That's the mark of a champion.
Rosberg drove an amazing race. A little quicker than Lewis on race day and since FP3 yesterday but wasn't able to capitalize. I think neither Mercedes driver could complain about how they drove against each other today. It was great to see this kind of racing between two of the best drivers in the world. I can't remember the last time we've had such great racing at the front of a GP. I like this new era of F1 so far overall.
Right, let me call a spade a spade. I don't like Red Bull, the drink or the team. I admire Seb, and I as I stated the guy drove well today IMO.Quote:

I'm prejudice :dozey:
Good answer :p;)Quote:
