Good grief. What a way to start a thread. πππ

Maybe I missed the mark on this one, but man, was it close.

Thatβs just how he operates. Scrambling for the scraps at the top. β

I can't help but wonder what Alonso would have done if he were sitting in that Williams seat today.
Heβd probably be lapping the field right now.
Meanwhile, Massa still hasn't quite grasped the concept of not being the number two driverβhe needs to realize heβs actually allowed to overtake someone
if he's faster, specifically by making a clean move rather than playing it reckless and slamming into other drivers like a maniac.
It seems like Williams finally moved on from Maldonado just to end up with another driver who drives like a total kamikaze.

What a race π π π
Everything else feels secondary as long as Philip is okay... I honestly thought my heart was going to stop for a second there. Itβs also a relief to see that Perez is alright, since he looked like he hit the wall pretty hard. This race actually managed to top the 2011 Canadian Grand Prix.
Congrats to Ricciardo, and Bravo to Vettel too π
Kudos to Force India

I feel for Perez, he was just starting to pull some solid points out of it for Force India. π’

What a race ππ:
This is exactly the kind of Formula 1 we all live for, isn't it? It had absolutely everythingβthe sudden retirements, the heavy crashes, those nail-biting overtakes, and such incredibly dramatic turns of fortune π
Ricciardo π
Rosberg π Prostovski managed to drive through some serious technical issues, ultimately salvaging a really solid position in the race. But then again, they say the apple doesn't fall far from the tree, so I can't help but believe that Nico Rosberg will go on to secure yet another title this year
Vettel π
Button ππ what a masterful performance, truly nothing short of masterful
The Ferraris were looking quite poor π’

Is Ferrari actually struggling?
Bottas had a car that was twenty times faster than Alonso's, yet he still got schooled by him. π
You clearly missed that part. π

Bottas was driving a car that was twenty times faster than Alonso's, yet he still got overtaken quite easily. π>
It seems you clearly overlooked that specific detail. π>
For a team that has been establishing itself as the third strongest contender in the standings during these recent races, shouldn't one reasonably expect much more significant results from these so-called upgrades?
And as for Bottas, he was dealing with those same engine issues, wasn't he? So, please, don't try to lecture me about overtakes. π

What a race... such a shame the main attraction ended up smashing into the wall. Still, a hell of a show overall!
Honestly, this was probably the best run Massa has had, even if that sounds impossible right now. Just look at the onboard footage from Massa's car... you can see Perez swerving left, and Massa was coming in too hot to dodge him.

Ricciardoπππ
I mean, Iβm honestly just glad he finally got some redemption after that mess in Australia.π
He should probably just change his name to Lucky.π€£>
Not sure if it's 100% true, but Ted says Perez had to reset the KERS right before he made that pass...
Nico Rosbergπ²
Good grief, look at that Mercedes.π
Once you lose the KERS (that's 160 HP gone), Force India is basically dead in the water.π
Vettel wouldβve absolutely killed Rocky over that brainless pit stop and the way they covered Bottas...
And to top it off, he was actually trying to find a decent strategy.π¬

Button gave him a Slap π€£
Too bad we missed that on the broadcast...
