    Once you get past the convoluted Bose advertising, the beyond the grid podcast has some mildly interesting interviews with Toto Wolff etc. that makes them all seem a bit more human.

    There’s a lovely one from a year or so ago with Murray Walker too...

    FP2 Bottas almost causes Hamilton to smash into him, then 5 seconds late Viettel almost smashes into him as he dawdles along on the racing line.

    Time will be very kind to Bernie I think. When you step back, you could argue he is the greatest genius in all of sporting history.

    You gain track position but it's going to be worthless, I don't see how it's going to work.

    Now they pit HAM with 3 1/2 laps remaining - this race is finishing under the safety car. Jesus.

    Nice of Merc to donate a podium to Toro Rosso, keeping the smaller teams alive.

    That was Albon's fault, he was on a dogshit line in and nowhere for Hamilton to go.

    Fair fucks to Gasly.

    How often do two cars fight for position going over the line?

    1971 Italian GP, there were about four of them finishing like that for the win. Don't know if footage exists. But yes, it's pretty rare to still be going for it over the line.

    The best last straight finish was of course this one (also at Monza) for 7th and 8th places in the 1993 race:

    Closest finish in F1 history.

    Beautiful stuff from the red cars.

    It's getting to the point where safety cars are a genuine problem. Chaos always ensures once they bowl one out (and then you can spiral into having them almost constantly).

    Hamilton got penalised down to 7th. Not sure I buy that, but he's been all over the media telling anyone who will listen that it was his fault so I suppose you can't really blame them.

    Sainz third and on the cusp of 6th in the championship, immense year from him.

    Meanwhile I see Antonio 'central casting' Giovinazzi managed to burgle 5th in the end which sends our old mate 'RoGro' down to 18th in the championship, how he has kept his drive yet again is a mystery.

    I'm starting to really dislike Leclerc. He's like a spoilt little kid at school, wanting to tell on the other kids.

    Makes you wonder why him and Vettel don't get on.

    Quality race, by the way. Verstappen was magic through the first corner all day. He's the only one on the grid I can see taking Hamilton's torch.

    That final qualifying session featured Vettel spinning on the start finish straight and Leclerc failing to make the start line in time to do his lap at the end of Q3, another Ferrari tour de force all in all.

    Now they seem to have over-fuelled Leclerc's car. Never a dull moment, nor indeed a competent one.

    They've also been caught cheating on Leclercs fuel level today, what a fitting way to cap off the season.

    Thinking all the way back to race 1 in Australia, where they were way slower than in testing, did they just not start the fuel cheating until later? A truly wonderful effort from them all season I reckon.

    Given that everyone's been talking about it for a month it would be a splendid effort to actually get caught in this complete dead rubber of a race.

    I’m near sure I seen someone in a tunnel on this earlier but over the past 5 or 6 laps there’s not a sign. Was it a replay from another race (I’m not watching too closely) or is it the pit lane or something?

    Pit lane is a tunnel here.

    The F1 director must hate Norris. Never shows his overtakes. Kyvat, Norris and Sainz having a right ding-dong and instead we watch a line of cars following Hulkenberg for 3 laps.

    It's a good job we have this soulless parade as a finale rather than last weeks race.

    Lol at Vettel finishing fifth. Monster year from Sainz with that sixth place. Good year for Perez too, would have been nice if he finished ahead of Ricciardo.
