Oh one other cool interview after the race was Martin Brundle with Ferrari team principle Mattia Binotto. Martin has been just pissed at rules in place that prevent exciting wheel to wheel racing and he went right at Mattia about it.
Mattia (obviously) plead his case for a penalty on Verstappen and said by the law it should be called, Martin got really emotional and basically flat out told him "I agree with Max if that's a penalty then let's all go home". Then Mattia said something and Martin went right back at him "so what, only passes with a clear lane straightaway in a DRS zone??!!!".
You could tell it hit Mattia a bit as a race fan and he gave in a bit which was cool to see "Well, no I don't want racing to be like that, I want the action and this shouldn't be a penalty, but right now it is and should be called"..
Kind of a neat give in by Mattia there.
