Well done Antonelli for hanging on

Verstappen has always been great here. New engine and excellent strategy was a big help as well.

Happy for Kimi to hold on under big pressure

Huge weekend for Norris. Bearman impressive again.

That was fun. Norris nailed it pretty much all weekend. Incredible drive from Verstappen and Antonelli deserves plaudits too, not just for the race in general but holding off Max in those last few laps. Would have been very easy for him to buckle under pressure and make a few mistakes to let Max through.

Love how there was about five seconds between seventh and sixteenth there at the end

It looked a bit like an Indy Car race back there at the end

Not a bad race and a great weekend for Lando, it`s his to lose now. Oscar`s form has dropped off a cliff since Baku although i can`t believe he gets a 10 second penalty for the turn one incident today.
Good drive from Max but happy he didn`t get any higher as i want to see his run of titles ended .

All gone for Norris as it usually does. They'll throw their weight behind him now, Oscar ruined it for himself with a stinking run of form right when it mattered most.

It’s gone for Norris because he’s been the fastest car in every session all weekend. There’s no good breaks here. He’s just been the best guy and been rewarded.

Great win for Lando. Shame for Piastri the T1 incident and penalty. I want LN to win, but Oscar didn't deserve a penaly there imo. Championship still far from over, one DNF throws the door wide open, but Oscar needs to step it up massively or else it very much looks like Lando has re-taken his place as the best driver at Mcl and is going to win the WDC. Amazing drive by Verstappen in the race (tho ironically aided by poor qualifying and getting a puncture). Been some great drives from the back here between him and Lewis in the last few years.

I actually quite like Norris

Why is he so unpopular?

He's not. There's just some noisy pleb haters in here, and Facebook F1 groups are so absolutely full of haters/fanbois that it's impossible to have any serious discourse there.

Well done Antonelli for hanging on

Coming into a top F1 seat at 18 is ridiculous but then going on to have a rookie season like he's had is something else.

Mad to think he'll still be a teenager at the start of next season.
