Bit of a yawnfest as usual (unless it rains).
Mostly agree with the above
Sucks for Leclerc...he would have most likely have won from pole.
Vestappen had a decent race but should have had pole with the significant car advantage he had.
Mercedes have some serious head scratching to do to figure how they managed to get Hamiltons set up so wrong in what was clearly a car capable of a front 2 row start. Especially as he had asked for a set up to dial in more front tyre temps but got something different.
And then the strategy call to go for an undercut early pit stop when Hamilton had been nursing his tyres for a long first stint to gain the overcut.
Perez instead played the strategy Hamilton thought he was on, to great advantage.....probably the best race of everyone.
No idea whats going on with Ricciardo...the man who beat Verstappen at Red BUll...Is Lando really that good? Could be I guess.
