Not really sure why they keep bigging up Perez for tyre management, it’s kind of pointless when your a pit stop behind.

Mazepin is half a lap off his teammate when both have practically no incidents of note other than Mazepin being a dick.

They should revoke his license.

A more pointless penalty could not exist. 5 seconds is absolutely nothing to one of the worlds slowest ever F1 drivers.

I have quite enjoyed it to be honest, OK not any great drama in it, but I dont think boring.
Once Lewis caught up to Max, you just know what the final order would be if there wasn't any incidents.

They really should show more of the midfield rather than us having to guess when Lewis would make his move.

It’s a decent race in fairness, we had half the race with the Top 3 within 1.5 seconds. Overtake for the lead.

How do the drivers get their licences to race in F1?
Passing of an FIA theory test on knowledge of the F1 sporting codes and regulations when applying for the first time. When applying for the first time – Completion of either six races in Formula 2, or accumulated 25 Super Licence points in eligible championships during the previous three years.

Based on championship performance in the lower categories (F2, F3 etc)

Thanks that's interesting so technically not THAT hard?

Max looks like he went if the track in turn 14. Wonder if it’ll be looked at, they’ve deleted times for that before.

Bit of a small own goal if Max gets to keep the fastest lap. Would have been better leaving it on Perez, as he is less likely to actually challenge for the championship
