I lolled. Just as well Horner spent all morning whining.

Snitches get stitches.... or hydraulic glitches.
This needs a safety car to get the front 2 together.
Oooh, this is getting very 'first day of school'. Everything melting at the first drive in anger.
A safety car right now would be very memey.
Good to see Grosjean attempting to destroy his car.
Lewis has been listening to the cucumber there. Casually wiping another second off.
If this keeps whittling down we may not need the safety car.
This could get tasty unless they just give him the undercut.
If Hamilton wins this on pace it's akin to him shagging Bottas's wife.
Stacking. Show your mettle Bottas.
That's a tasty release
Hamilton tyre complaint count: 1.
Good old 'Seb'.
Ferrari being 4th fastest car at best is lovely to see.
Either Nicholas Latifi is a complete trust fund jobber or George Russell is the second coming of Jim Clark. Place your bets.
Imagine everyone destroying their first set of engines on race one
Black and White flag for Grosjean
Why are we watching a tractor Ferrari sit behind a McLaren in 6th when there's a battle for the lead inside 1s?
"Don't hit the kerbs"
Sounds like Lewis has been given the instruction to call it off.
Maybe swap them around next week. This kind of advantage over the rest of the field is lol though.
A smell a switcheroo incoming.
Netflix must be having a field day with this race.
A true Grosjean classic this afternoon.
Ferrari is just class. Can't stick to the back of Lando Norris. Bring back Ivan Capelli.
Albon may get top two
Both Mercedes are gonna have to get racy now. If only for a few laps.
If ever I heard a load of bullshit, it is 'stay off the kerbs' due to a sensor issue.
They hit the kerbs
Fucks sake Kimi.
It's because you're black, Lewis.
In before grid penalties.
Ferrari just got 2nd
About fair penalty really.
Albon should have waited a bit though, he had a big advantage there.
That was fucking tasty.
Norris on the podium
Lando smashed it there.
Doing it again next week.
Those last two sectors from Norris were phenomenal, where did he find that pace?
Wonderful race. The penalty on Hamilton was fair but Albon was naive to put himself in that position when he clearly had the pace.
Albon's such a peanut. He was going to be all over Hamilton for however many laps there were left, no need to force things like that. Merc missing a trick by not switching them round and using Bottas to back up the field a bit, although that would have to have been a precise manoeuvre.
What was that in the end. 3 safety cars?
Add that in a supposed wounded car and the Mercs were still comfortably ahead. Ominous for the rest of the season.
Missed the race, but looking at the results, the number of DNFs is proper 90s stuff.
You missed an absolute BELTER
I’ll watch on 4.
Alex Brundle (son of Martin) is on comms for the F3 races and his voice is so weirdly similar.
Thai Ansusinha needs to check his tone about sore loser.
Between the commentary and the ad breaks I’m starting to remember why I stopped watching.
The exit from 3 is glorious as is the run through 8 (tbf the Mercedes was visually mighty through 8, especially in qualifying, such a great corner in these downforce cars).
Lando needs an adult voice quick or else I'm going to hate all of his success. Must be great just go on a proper hotlap like that at the end of a grand prix.
I'm completely fine with Lando taking over at the top when Lewis decides to go off on anti-racism crusades.
