    Hamilton played safe to continue his points advance against Seb, no reason to throw away 67 point lead trying something risky against Max or Kimi. Now Lewis (with 70 point lead) well on his march to 5 championships. Smart racing.

    Great race, fun to see Kimi win again!

    Now that was a great race, three different makes fighting down to the last lap with barely two seconds between them. And won on pure merits. Congratulations to Kimi...it was nice to seem him actually smile.

    Nice job from all the team. Well, except... you know.

    If this is a sign of the things to come, I don´t know if I should be happy or not. We have a decent car, but a driver who can´t overcome his mental block.

    Oh well, I'm glad he was unable to clinch #5 in the US. :D

    I like the fact that the Ferrari team members actually sing their national anthem. I've never seen Mercedes or any other team do that! Bravo!

    Well I think most AMG F1 employees are British anyway. Ferrari is an Italian team based in Italy with lots of Italian employees. The other is a German team based in the UK...

    I was disappointed there wasn't a Green, White, Checkered. LOL (For those not knowing, it's a NASCAR thing. )

    Again, my congrats to Kimi.

    Hamilton is a smart coockie; he doesn't need to take risk. The title is his anyway, so why rush and risk a stupid DNF ?

    I think it was an exiting race anyway. Verstappen did an excellent job this time, no doubt about it.

    Vettel dropped the ball again, proof that he is not in a good frame of mind this year. But I wouldn't exclude him for the title next year.

    I think he really tried: he went out of the track trying to pass Verstappen. He knows he can afford one or even two DNFs and still win the championships. They even tried an heterodox strategy to beat Raikkonen. But Verstappen getting to the end on the softer tyres was out of the plan.

    He was attacking for position though, and did try risky passes against Max, and couldn't get past. If he was playing it safe he wouldn't have ran wide fighting Max, and he wouldnt have lost 8 seconds battling Kimi.

    Probably because Mercedes F1 is a British company. Car design, car production and staff are British.
    The German national anthem is bogus
