Alonso third. A late effort, but a tidy one.

Hamilton didn't look confident at all, 7 odd tenths behind Wuthell.

Apparently lewis and George went for different setups. Lewis prioritized race pace but it seems to have badly affected his qually. Be interesting to see what happens in the race.

Did anyone else forget that quali was Friday and the race is Saturday and get confused to see the quali results last night?

or is it just a measure of my antipathy to modern F1?

Boring!

Same for the next race.
Due to the start of Ramadan on the 10th.

Season's over.

Same as last year , great battles through out the pack except for the leader. As most people only care about the top step nowadays I can see tons of whining again.
Haas are looking like they have improved their race pace finally, which was nice.

This is the Times Sport section front page- should be leading the main section surely?!?
Will the PM step in to sort this out? Or maybe the UN??

I really don't think you should be putting the UN in harm's way like that

Nice work, Carlos. I would be chuffed if he finished the season well ahead of LeClerc.

Missed the race. Totally forgot it was today. Looks like I didn't miss much though.
Interesting that Perez was 21 seconds slower than Max by the end of the race. That car seems to work far better for Max than it does for Perez. On the flip side, I suppose we can provisionally put Max down as the winner of the next 23 races...

I wonder if it's becoming an issue for the FIA yet? We've had periods of dominance before but not periods where every almost single race was won by the same driver, for the same team. It's likely to kill interest in watching the races if something doesn't change soon.

Caltrops would fix it

I think the driver of the day was the best bit.

I thought it was boring and gave up after the finish. I couldn't bear to hear Coulthard and his chums grovelling over RB.
