Looks like the updates have made a difference for Mercedes?. Shame Max had a problem as it would've been good to see what he could've produced on his final qualifying lap.
Hopefully it'll be a good race.
Yep, and good to see Haas and Mick S doing better. I was with the Stewart-Haas Nascar team yesterday, they are hoping Mick can figure it out. Hopefully a competitive race by all today.

Exciting race. I don't think Ferrari are going to keep any advantage they had at the start of the season.
Red Bull are looking strong. Mercedes are on the rise.
Russell looking good.
Exciting season to come hopefully.

Checo is one unhappy man. His last radio message was telling them so publicly. The Bull Durham “just happy to help the team” second driver bs is maddening. Great race overall sorry for Haas team, Checo, Ferrari, and Alonso.

Well, it had a bit of everything. But not much overtaking.
Monaco may be the most iconic race venue, but I like it less and less.
I am still hoping Mercedes can get into contention to make it a three way competition but it looks less and less likely.

Interesting race. Glad to see Sergio get the win?. The 3 at the top are pretty close with Russell and Sainz still in the mix so it should be a great finish to the season.
I was on the edge of my seat. I think Checo is a class act and he got that win because he out drove the competition. He got shafted in Barcelona. I hope Red Bull backs off and lets Checo go for the Championship.

Thus the drivers have always said Spa is the best circuit.
I'd put Suzuka in a very close second place.

¡Vamanos Checo! The contract is up for Monaco. I would rather remember it’s past glory than suffer it again. Besides there is no Ferris wheel in the principality.
