Think Alonso is not taking it serious now and got in Magnusson way.....although seems it was a racing incident 🤔

Wonder if there is any rain expected during the race? That could make it fun!
I have this feeling something mad is going to happen at the start at the front of the grid and Vettel is going to lose out (after his annoyance of Kimi running after him in Quali 3 and getting Pole that will be on his mind and a touch of the red mist will still be in his helmet)

I'd expect the front four, at least, to be sensible at the start and the Ferraris run off into the distance. The only 'uncertainty' is quite when team orders are applied and Kimi gets told to make way for Vettel. Another boring race in prospect ... ... on the other hand ...  |

I think Vettel expected Kimi to let him though without any fight and forgot to watch out for the real threat behind. Great Drive by Lewis Hamilton there and there was actually some proper racing and overtaking going on! Bit surprised Mercedes let him carry on for so long after Kimi pitted as was loosing so much time per lap but they must have had a good idea of the Ferrari wearing out the rubber and getting back the time later on I guess. Not sure how much of a role Bottas played in slowing Kimi down. Probably had some effect and did a good team player job there. Be interesting if Kimi is there in 2019 or not? seemed to have swung back in his favour in recent weeks, but yesterdays start was not the drive of a supporting actor and may have hurt his chances? And I see Young Mad Max is back to his old weaving tricks. Good to see his 1st Season Pass is not on automatic renewal. (Whether or not it makes the racing poorer is not the point, Mr V. You can't drive to a different set of rules to the rest of the pack) |

That like the one he did in Spa a couple?? of years ago was just Dangerous, I think he was lucky to get away with only a 10 second penalty.
