Putting all the drama aside, merc's straight line speed advantage over ferrari is ridiculous.

Crazy race but to lose a win because of a headrest Mercedes shot themselves in the foot there, wonder if someone didn't clip it into place during the red flag phase. Race pace looked close though but I still lean towards Mercedes having the fastest car overall.

Let the post mortem begin....there will be some pretty choice words between 5 and 44.
Too bad for stroll to lose p2 on the final straight but great work from him
Good race for Ric but he definitely got lucky by the two leaders races falling apart

Oh the irony. Vettel gains in the championship by deliberately crashing into Hamilton.

What a way to lose a race... outch. Insteading of gaining at least 7 points, he lost 2.
Not for nothing, Rosberg's Championship is the only thing that lends credibility to Hamilton's recent success. Otherwise, he'd just be the guy who's had the best car. — bhall II

That overspeed on the Merc, wow. Race reminded me of a WWE event though. Just needed uncle Vince to show up.

Edit: changed to overspeed

Crazy race but thoroughly enjoyable! Vettel will face some harsh and deserved criticism for his behaviour, but ultimately Hamilton lost the race not because of that incident but because his team didn't secure his headrest. Silly but costly error. Hell of recovery from Bottas! Well don to Stroll and fantastic by Riccardo. Great race :D
