    Race was alright until that safety car made it spicy. Wonder why it took so long to pull into the pits - we could’ve had at least 1 extra lap of racing.

    Mega 10 points for Hulk and Sauber. Watching him overtake a Ferrari was surreal.

    Leclerc’s risky tire strategy yesterday worked out well today.

    Hadjar with another strong points finish.

    Alonso finally with points on board.

    10s penalty for Verstappen seems lenient. He got 3 penalty points for it apparently and with 11 penalty points is 1 point away from a race ban.

    Another engine failure for Antonelli is bizarre.

    It’s a shame that Lawson wasn’t able to get a point after all that brawling.

      They were waiting for the backmarkers to catch up to the rest of the field before restarting the race, is why it took so long

        The F1TV commentators were saying it’s not mandatory for backmarkers to catch up in order to resume racing.

          It’s not mandatory but when you’ve got points on the line they probably didn’t want to be seen to be making decisions that could cost midfield teams a chance at points, even if that meant an extra lap or two behind the safety car.
