Was a solid race. Don't know if anyone watched the onboards but Alonso's defense against Bortoleto at the end was some absolute top tier racecraft. Using DRS spots, lapping McLarens, blue flags... absolutely everything to cling to that spot. Also not sure if it was intentional or not, but since he stayed behind Norris he didn't have to do an extra lap, which probably saved him. Old man still has it, I really wish he gets a good car next year.

Another hot day, another Merc disaster and this is something we've seen for a long time now. I have no idea what it is about it but the car just hates high temperatures. So of all races for Antonelli to have a brain fart in I guess this wasn't the worst. Russell was consistent as always but not much on the table for him today.

Super impressed by Sauber and the step they've taken, I wrote them off completely this year as I assumed they had no reason to do anything but focus on next year. Fair play to them, they've made some great upgrades and seem better operationally too. Good pitstops as well today. Binotto cooking?

I've been extremely critical of him so far (and I'm still not convinced) but Lawson had a really good weekend. Hadjar has destroyed him so far but this time it was a role reversal. Very curious to see if it was a one-off or if he's gotten over a mental block.

Disaster for Williams and I really want to know what the hell they've done. No other Merc team is getting DNFs like this, that's three in a row for Albon!

Driver of the Day is probably Bortoleto for his first F1 points, but Alonso had a fantastic race too and should be in the conversation. As should Liam.

With that level of traffic management Alonso may have a future in multiclass racing, perhaps even WEC. ~/s~

Sauber pit stops especially were good! Remember they kept dropping bits last season? They had some super quick stops today. Love to see it
