Well done Lewis, Valtteri and team, rather a good race apart from some old git doing what old gits are famous for, driving into the back of other cars, is dementia setting in?

However the BBC late news was an absolute disgrace, 10mins cricket world cup, Wimbledon 5mins, UK F1 GP British drivers victory, and record breaking, 1 1/2 mins with some second rate reporter who knew nothing about what she was reporting about! Fair enough the cricket was a triumph for the England team and deserved coverage, and Wimbledon not a British player to be seen. But F1 come on BBC just because you can't afford the transmission rights doesn't mean you can't give the event the respect it and Lewis deserve. Something else you can guarantee, Lewis wont be BBC sports personality of the year, and won't end up with a yet knighthood again!

That's it rant over, I was just glad Sky condescended to allow another (free) network access the coverage, bet they charged a bob or two for the honour.
I hope the illegal immigrants (no Daily Mail NOT migrants or refugees) enjoyed the show!

Agree, some really great driving throughout the field, as for Vettel like many other "older" drivers he is showing that his reaction time is in decline, maybe there's some way of monitoring and testing for this as drivers seem to go on and on well after they should retire from F1.
