No surprise there for the winner. Felt like an odd race, some really good passing, but somehow not that exciting.
Thoughts?
It was boring. Even the raindrops could not make it interesting.
I need to stick to endurance racing I guess…
I felt like there was a lot going on today, plenty of action around the midfield especially Lando, Stroll, Albon and both Alpines?
Definitely not winning any prize for excitement… A bit annoyed with Piastri dropping out, would really like to see his performance in this race… In the end it’s another Redbull Sunday.
Max is ridiculous. 20+ sec ahead of his own teammate. Glad to see an RB 1-2, but still.
Wish it had rained more, though not sure that would have actually stopped Max marching on. Glad to see Norris recovered somewhat, though sucks Piastri went out. And glad to see Yuki in the points.
And into the summer break we go…
I found it enormous fun, great overtakes, great midfield, Max beating his teammate by 15 sec, lots of struggles on tyres, Hamilton taking the fastest lap on fresh mediums, Max sending it from miles away on Leclerc, slight change of pace with the rain but overall small effect, except for Max almost spinning on Eau Rouge.
Not the best Spa edition ever, but as an attendee of the 2021 edition, certainly not the worst
