Wasn't that from the Massa stop? Looked good to me. Bottas was a second slower.

would be awesome to see this race in person. Only thing to make it better would the old V10 sound. Hoping for some action between Vettel and Alonso here.

Ricciardo needs to DRS the frick out of Vettel before this race ends early.

Ricciardo and Alonson both opening up the rear wings. Vettel has a dog fight on his hands for the podium.

For those new to F1, if Vergne doesn't pit before the end of the race, he'll have 5 seconds added to his time at the end of the race.

Only 10 drivers score points, so Vergne is going to attempt to wreck everyone to ensure he scores points even after the 5 second post-race penalty.

With the victory combined with Rosberg's DNF, Lewis Hamilton has regained a 3-point lead in the drivers' championship. Bottas blew a tire on the last lap, and that means Ferrari jumps back ahead of Williams into third in the constructors' championship.

Vergne should still hold 6th as his 5 second penalty is less than the 7.2-second gap to Pérez in 7th.

RESULTS

1. Lewis Hamilton
2. Sebastian Vettel
3. Daniel Ricciardo
4. Fernando Alonso
5. Felipe Massa
6. Jean-Éric Vergne
7. Sergio Pérez
8. Kimi Räikkönen
9. Nico Hülkenberg
10. Kevin Magnussen
11. Valtteri Bottas
12. Pastor Maldonado
13. Romain Grosjean
14. Daniil Kvyat
15. Marcus Ericsson
16. Jules Bianchi
17. Max Chilton

DNF: Button, Sutil, Gutiérrez, Rosberg, Kobayashi

Damn boys, what a race.

Couldn't post since I was streaming over my phone. I think if Lewis comes out behind Riccardo they racd has a lot closer ending. Not sure he could have passed both Red Bulls.


Gotta keep it up all the way the end now.

Just returned from the race. It was my first F1 race to see in person.

Overall it turned out to be a pretty good race. The first half was boring until the safety car came on the track.

Hamilton had it won but the race for 2,3,&4 was entertaining.

Getting in and out of the actual course was fairly difficult if you didn't study the maps of the entrances before hand.
