Meanwhile, Williams are 2 laps from a double points finish. Russell's waited so long to finally get some points for Williams, and when it finally happens he's behind his teammate!

McLaren will be looking for a get out clause in that new contract.

If Lewis passed Alonso 5 laps earlier he could have had a chance. Credit to Alonso.
I mean, depending on how the decisions were made about whether to pit for dry tyres at the restart, the race was only a challenge because he might have messed up.
Yeah he’s subpar all season I wonder what’s up.
Lewis has to be driver of the day.
Huge mistake by him, then dead last and gets podium.
He won't thought.

Alonso has done great for his team. Got them the win by holding Hamiltom off.
Is Gasly going for fastest lap to help Red Bull and Verstappen? Or is there any benefit to him.
Ocon is a deserved driver of the day, not put a foot wrong up front.
Don't think its a case of maybe, he definitely messed up. To get from last to 3rd is a good shout, but still think Ocon should get it.
Well done Ocon
Awesome race!
He's the best driver in the world, and has proven that again today.
It can't be all down to him, given that the team see the track and the weather too.
Feel sorry for Verstappen. It isn't meant to be it seems. Great for Ocon!
Unbelievable driving by Alonso. Won it for Ocon.
Brilliant drive from Ocon, fully deserves that one
Man, one more lap would have been incredible to see, but Ocon massively deserves that.
No radio during formation lap, though, right?
I am calling it. That's the driver and constructor's titles done. Mercedes won't throw this away now.
One of the best races for a while and on a track that is hard to pass on
He was spun around but not damaged, at least nothing that wouldn't have been easily fixed before the restart.
Alpine played it perfectly. Alonso won that for ocon
Well done to Ocon, excellently kept.
Lewis really messed up taking so long to get passed Alonso, but credit to him as well to keep him at bay so long.

So happy for Ocon. One of the good guys.
What mistake did he make?
Hamilton was less than a second behind Vettel. 2 more laps and he might have won it.
Yeah less than 1.5 seconds away on that last lap. Lolz at Gasly putting on soft to help Max.
Lucky drive from the overated Hamilton.
A break may be good for the team. They need to get their heads straight again.
Always special to see a first time winner. Great entertainment today.
Correct, all downv to Lewis.
Everyone else pitted to go onto slicks at the restart apart from him
Red Bull junior team getting the fastest lap to take a point of Lewis is so Red Bull
Cry baby as well.
Even 2 laps really, he was right up behind Vettel crossing the line.
Aye. Credit to Alonso for holding him up.
What a race. Congrats Ocon.
Wish it would have rained more.
Still, nice to see a new winner and Vettel up there. Great points for Williams and Alpine.

Staying on inters, his call I think.
