Wow! Great race that had absolutely everything!! five tire types, Starting under caution, team orders, team orders being ignored, blue flags being ignored and stupidity, (Kimi) I love the guy but man was that dumb. Maybe he was not aware his front wing was under the car but get the hell of the racing line, he sure as hell knew he didn't have speed once he entered the tunnel. Those Sauber drivers were behaving like little brats.
Cringe worthy seeing Beiber right there on the track for the podium ceremony.
I think the stewards made the right call re Ricciardo/Hamilton at the chicane. Absolute heartbreak though what happened to Daniel in his pit box, I don't recall ever seeing a pit crew so confused and disorganized. Ricciardo didn't mince words after the race either. I heard he refused to even speak with team Redbull after the race.
I don't know what Ricciardo's contract situation is but for sure he must be wide open to discussion with other teams after what happened in Barcelona and then today's disaster.
Congrats to force India and good to see Alonso with a respectable result.
Looking forward to Montreal and possible wet weather racing.
