Clubber,

So sad that 70 overtakes in a races is a significant stat! Thats just over one per lap. Wow. ๐Ÿ˜•

I was brought up on a diet of F1,2, 3 Formula Ford, sports cars and saloon car racing and F1 could learn a lot from those old series.

The FIA have neutered F1. Off to take the dog for a walk, far more exciting! ๐Ÿ˜•

It all seems to be on at a very civilised time over he in Oz. Unfortunately it's looking like a pretty sterile race so far, Kimi could be the surprise here.....

some people like lots of easy overtaking, others prefer it to be a bit harder and worthwhile ๐Ÿ˜‰

Maybe you should go and watch one of the various us racing series...

I love these positive contributions to f1 threads. Why? I mean really why bother? On other thread topics you find boring, do you go in and say 'this is boring, blah blah blah' . No?

I find picking up dog shite probably as uninspiring as you find f1 these days, but each to their own. I remember the glory days of picking up dog shite back in the 80s, when as you crawled about in a piss soaked hedge between the cans and carrier bags there was at least a 50% chance of finding a copy of razzle. Happy days.

๐Ÿ˜‰

Why bother? Because I sacrificed a ride to watch it. I actually was excited and now so disappointed.

It's a free country. Off to go and pick up warm dog sh1te ๐Ÿ™‚

Pook, I will, but sadly later; 17 laps of boredom took my early ride slot away ๐Ÿ™

Might have to watch more F1!!!

Not boring at all! I had it on in the background while doing some stuff around the house, then had to sit down to watch it properly.

The opportunity to post negative stuff on the thread?

Throwback to the old days for the first half with very little overtaking, but really fantastic second half.

Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiicoooooooo!!!

At least it picked up then.

Higthepig, did I dare to upset you by stating facts; that the 17 laps were devoid of action? Bless!

Have some tissues on me!

Managed to avoid the result on the radio all day and watched the Sky highlights show, which condensed it into a very interesting race.

Watched on iplayer after a great days riding

Great race with a proper hectic section when everyone was fighting for 2nd place

I promised not to watch F1 this year after the whole Sky thing, but if i can go cycling on the Sunday, avoid any chances of hearing the result, then go home and watch it online, then i might just continue to follow F1

Well done Nico ๐Ÿ˜€

I watched the repeats/hilights when I got back in and wow. Alot of wheel to wheel. Great to watch and great skill on display.

I LOVED how Hamilton second-guessed Vettel and moved to block with amazing reaction BEFORE Vettel had even considered making the move.

If he had purposely blocked he'd have been penalised but he moved into a position even before it was considered! Class.
