So sprint races are ok sometimes eh?

No way we'd have had this much fun with a normal format weekend....

Thanks to the conditions.
But if there must be sprint races, they should be held only on tracks with high chance of rain.
Next sprint race is in Spa, so hopefully it's also a wet one.

Those slicks picked up so much speed in the last couple of laps. An extra 2 or 3 laps could have been very interesting. I'll never get behind the Sprint format, but that was the best one so far. Entertaining.

Jeez, did Stroll just beat Alonso in a straight fight? 8O



I didn’t get the impression that Alonso gave it all. More like a few moves for the show

Dry and sunny.
Would need a miracle to have similar conditions.

Yeah I'll take a sprint format that brings more chance of wet racing than a normal format where the chances of wet racing are reduced

If it was last year's format, that would be our grid for tomorrow too, which might well be more exciting than tomorrow's actual grid, but F1 loves making needless changes on top of needless changes....

also loved how the Mercedes got a lot of places at the start

Ocon managed to stay just 0.009 ahead of Russell though

Surprise surprise, it's raining. Probably will last at least 45 minutes. But might dry up before the start.

Ferrari providing 2-3 corners of actual racing rather than comedy for once.
