It's a shame, I was really excited for Lewis and Rosberg to take it to each other.
The entire race was shameful.

IMO it showed how the FIA was snookered by the straw man case that brought the most radical change in F1 in history that produced unreliable, unnecessary, boring technology that actually slowed the cars down. That's progress? More like the cars are running on snake oil.

Of course that didn't slow the insufferable NBC commentators from hysteria, proclaiming it the best GP of the year and firmly cementing them as network toadies, although I'll exempt Hobbs who was uncharacteristically quiet throughout the debacle.

At least there was some humor that Vettel mistook for support when he credited Renault in a quasi-French province and the crowd cheered.

At least we have LeMans to look forward to, I've about had it with F1 this year.
