    It was a crowded and physical race. The very wide track makes the circuit a delight to race and watch.

    He has to, he is not looking good at the moment. two consecutive ordinary race weekends soon get people talking.

    It's not likely politically correct to ask , but was there a breach of podium protocol committed when Lewis wore his "arrest the cops" t-shirt on the podium during the ceremony ?
    I noticed he took it off for the pictures afterwards .

    [CANCELLED]Congratulations to Russell for his first F1 point. He should buy Leclerc a pint because Leclerc passing Raikonen, sapped alot of time from the Fin, gifting Russell 10th place.

    I doubt there is. But it looked very rebellious. I am sure he has got people talking in the paddock.

    I hope Imola and Portamio produce the same outcome, as no driver on the current grid; maybe except Kimi, has driven any of these tracks.

    Nurburgring would be epic l think. I am really looking forward to that one.

    Indeed incredible. Driving a car that is 2 seconds a lap faster than any other and still winning.

    A normally happier after a victory Toto was shown in the crowd not smiling while the anthems were playing .
    And , a short while later he took it off .

    I understand the message , but the podium has never been a place where any kind of political message has been allowed .

    Lewis has done a lot to put this movement forward , and F1 responded with a moment for the cause before every race .

    In my opinion , and , I believe , the rules , taking it onto the podium , a sacred place , is going too far .
    It would look horrible to sanction him , but it deserves some attention , as it could set a dangerous precedent for future podia .
