I just want to say, fuck these regulations.

The only way I can accept Mercedes winning the WCC is if Kimi wins the WDC. So far we're on track, so I'm happy. He needs to improve his starts but overall well done Kimi.

Horrible crash for Bearman and I don't really see how we could avoid those incidents with the current regs, but some actions should be taken because it could've been even worse. Had Bearman driven into Colapinto it probably would've been a ~50kph collision between them followed by both of them going full speed into the wall.

His start seemed great. Had quick reaction times but wheel spin caused him to lose pace.

Happy for Kimi, his second win, well deserved. Excellent quali from him, bad luck at the start that he got back with the safety car. And finally Oscar got to do some driving driving and very happy for him to be compensated with a podium.

Race wasn't completely devoid of action but almost all of it was one guy having battery and the other one not. And then the same but other way around. This is not racing. It just isn't. And people who say "well DRS blahblahblah" yeah I agree, I didn't like that either. But it wasn't this stupid.

That Bearman crash was scary. Carlos Sainz didn't mince words in the post race interview. Alonso basically predicted this before the race. Like Sainz said, imagine those closing speeds in the S's before Baku main straight. Walls everywhere, you come around a bend and someone is going 50km/h slower than you... I have a bad feeling about this and will be extremely happy to be wrong at the end of the season. Thank fuck the Saudi GP was cancelled/postponed, maybe they FIA will do something about this before that sort of fast, blind, tight and no run offs track has to be raced on with these cars. I was already worried about that track with the previous gen cars.

I agree, this isn't racing. It's more an exercise in energy management in the context of racing.
