Looking like a wet surface for today’s race!
Nothing like some precipitation to upend the running order…
Go Max!!

Whew…that was exhausting. Good race.

That was a wild race. Bit rank and file in the middle but fun start and crazy finish.

Hoping for similar excitement with MotoGP but I have a feeling it's going to be a snoozer.

Wow, I stayed up and watched the race, we had some tough weather coming through, so I stayed up and watched it. Tough on the rookies to start, then two veterans leading spin out, loose position …. Not going to say, but Hamilton got to the lead.

You just knew when they all pitted for slicks, and incoming rain reports were being reported that a high probability for chaos was coming.
Not surprisingly, chaos ensued and the remainder of the race was a barn burner!!

That was a really fun race to watch.

F1 is far from perfect, but can be spectacular. It does fit my main requirement for races and racing cars: they must turn in a minimum of TWO directions.

So many 'what' ifs' in that scenario. The all wet races are not much to look at but the back and forth wet/slick tires amke for some fantastic racing.

And that pass by Pisatri on Hamilton on the outside of 6 (I think) at the end of the race was phenomenal. That was Verstappen-like in the wet and I very seriously doubt Norris could/would have pulled that off. He was an angry australian

Hopefully they let Oscar race this year!!
McLaren still making some dubious strategy decisions.
Agree that pass of Hamilton on the last lap was epic!

Great CHAOS was had!
Feel for the rookies that crashed out, except Alonso. . .

For all the variables and factors the teams can and do control, the rain and track evolution provides a fantastic new variable to the teams and delivers great entertainment.
