It was a good race, only watching the highlights I'm not sure if Ricciardo would have stood a chance if Ferrari or Merc had fresh tires, but you take 'em where you can get 'em, especially when after F3 it looked like a weekend to forget with a blown engine and only hours to change it for quali. He drove excellently and earned that victory as Verstappen threw away what should have been at least a podium. Bad day for the three 'fastest' drivers out there though, Verstappen, Vettel, and Hamilton as the "#2's" top the podium.

Chinese GP turned out to be a pretty entertaining race! I thought the camera work/directing was improved, and no commercials was nice. Audio was good as well.
Commentators still a little too chatty, imo. It's OK for there to be periods of announcer silence where we just listen to the cars! How about Max Verstupid's unnecessarily aggressive driving and risky maneuvers? He needs to settle down.

Just before the Verstappen-Vettel incident, I commented to my wife "all we need is for Max to go torpedo mode". We couldn't believe it!!! HAHA

Verstappen lately is looking more like the next Jean Alesi rather than the next Senna.

They need to fire Verstappen, they obviously have competitive cars this year they just need to replace one of their drivers.

At least the fulfilment of my prediction is looking good. |
