Who the living hell was doing the commentating for the english broadcasting? Sounded so monotone and uneventful. Like oh look there’s a crash and some drivers have gone off.

Crofty would’ve been having a severe mental breakdown losing his shit seeing the championship leader caught up in a first lap collision.

Perhaps the Crash-stop-pen fans are busy dismantling their shrines....as I stated earlier, the Racing 101 between ALO and HAM sets the bar and expectation at the highest level of motorsport....Crash-stop-pen may never learn this valuable asset.

Max was busy bumping wheels with Mick.

Man can’t even cleanly pass a Haas.

MAX made today a world start ! In T1 , MAX was only 2 meters behind HAM .
This could have been a fantastic race from HAM vs MAX .

But BOT had once again , and as usual an idiotic start, that's why the fool ruined the whole race ...
If LANDO didn't hit his brakes , HAM was taken out as well !

They were terrible for the live coverage. This group has shown up on other F1 TV shows but there's no soul to them. I turned off the feed and found a different one with Rosberg and Crofty. Completely turned the race around for me and Rosberg was an awesome add-on to this race.

I was using the f1tv app and eventually crofty and rosberg came back. I was about to watch it on the pit lane audio option or something.

BS !!!
The Red Bull's right side was actually 8 pounds of duckt-tape , and the sideskirt was completely gone !
This car lost 40 % of his downforce capacity !
It's a F* miracle car 33 could make it to the finish line .

And mate ! Don't tell me you aren't aware of it !!!

IF Norris wouldn't have hit the brakes that much then he probably wouldn't have so much damage to be repaired with BOT's hit as well as wiping out Max's side aero, by going into ham but he overreacted with the brakes and F* ed himself up also , the kiddo blew it.

Good to know, I started on the app and I couldn't handle it.

Here was Crofty's reaction to the lap 1 tussle

Watching it now BOT appeared to have plenty of time to brake even with Norris's braking and after the hit BOT continues to go into Checo ay full speed NOT braking!

Always regarded ROS as a bit of a sellout when he walked out like he did.

I think he is one hell of a commentator though and brings some good insights from a driver who was at the top of the sport.
He does not mince words either, calling Karen Horner out for their circus earlier in the week.

He was mentally defeated. I didn’t like Rosberg as a driver and obviously Merc doesn’t miss him.

I do respect that he knew when he had enough and went out at the top of his game.

Most effective move I’ve seen from Bottas all year.

In the span of two races, Merc destroys THREE RBR power units, two RBR chassis by crashing out rivals on Lap 1.

Even fanboys can’t enjoy this lack of actual racing. Watching a remaining Merc run a parade lap with no competition is boring and bad for the sport.

Alonso salvaged some entertainment

Interesting that Max passed Ricciardo with half a car. That can’t make Mclaren feel good about their drivers lineup.

Vettel may lose P2

Fuel sample inadequate.

Hammy seems to fall into points.

It was the highlight of the race for me Max getting past Ricciardo who had an undamaged car.
