Managed to grab a few photos, so cool to travel all that way and see Lando so happy.

So lovely.. So happy for him, I had a smile on my face for many hours my cheeks actually hurt😁
But that bloody trophy.. Honestly it looks like it was designed by Albert Speer

I'll have to go back and watch the race. I missed this one unfortunately, but would love to still see it all unfold, despite knowing the outcome.

It’s quite entertaining, and the timing of the safety car is crucial.

Bit of a chess game.. Never a great circuit for Modern Formula 1 cars bit like Brands Hatch, but it was an exciting finish

I'm not too sure wtf happened to George and Mercedes having to pit him with like 15 laps to go. He seemed to be doing okay slowly losing time to Lewis but nothing major.

I think they just wanted to go for fastest lap while maintaining basically the same position for 1 extra point overall

Yep, that race was tedious, which was a shame as some of the supporting races were quite exciting. Moving onto Monaco, another circuit where the current F1 behemoths struggle with overtaking. Hoping for a moderately wet race to avoid another procession.

Trophies these days.... some of them are so crappy they would make you embarrassed to win them

Nothing Compares with the Jack Brabham trophy .. That's something I would display with much pride!

Terrible track for modern F1!
Boring race!
Great result, very happy for Leclerc and Piastry

Perez should’ve really signed that 1 year deal

How on earth did Russell make those Mediums last 75 laps and still hold off Verstapen?

Easy. It's Monaco.

Daniel Ricciardo won a few years ago while missing one of his MGU’s down 100’s of HP. Only thing that matters at Monaco is track position.

That’s why teams focus like crazy on qualifying. Passing is almost impossible in the principality.
