Very interesting sprint race. Battles everywhere you look.
VER comfortably ahead after an early scare, PER scraping through into 2nd.
RUS and HUL making good strategy calls salvaged their races for them.
LEC a touch unlucky in the pits messed up his attack. Getting tangled up with OCO didn’t help. SAI looked rock solid but unimaginative, just held on for dear life and drove to a podium.
STR really should have given ALO that place, every point counts if anyone is going to have even an outside chance of attacking VER for the championship.
OCO being his usual bullheaded self made him 7th, RUS raced him to the line and was 9 thousandths of a second behind.
Very entertaining. 8/10.
Battle between the bulls for the first few corners was genuinely entertaining. Perez running Verstappen wide defensively was interesting to see. Also good move by Perez into turn one to establish his lead.
As a viewer, Verstappen failing to turn at any point into T3 felt a bit ludicrous. I didn't get to see an onboard of his hands on the wheel. Would have liked that.
I wish RB had a young guy trying to make his name rather than Perez. There would have been more sparks into T3 if so.
Then we could have seen a REALLY interesting battle for the sprint win.
Not upset about any of it. Fun sprint to watch.
Maybe we will see more sparks between the Bulls next year. 😉😉😉
