Red bull is by far the best car. Superior suspension and best traction and engine torque off corner of any car. They don't need the top speed that is constantly mentioned as one of their weak points. During the race Vettel was able to run fast lap anytime he wanted to.

I don't agree. The Red Bull did well on the options, but if the advantage had been cancelled out by a safety car Alonso could have won the race. I thought that might actually happen when the race started. But I'm happy for Seb it did not.

you have to add "on this track" traction out of chicanes for sure red bull is n 1.

Dominant win by Vettel and daunting for the Championship, boing very uncalled for damn guys did the same to Hamilton in Monza, Hamilton put some of the problems behind him and the fight with Alonso was great. Mercedes not improved, similar to China. Bottas disappointing wanted to see him in the lake lol. McLaren gone backwards, Mercedes gone forward championship standing wise at least and another Canadian grand prix that doesn't disappoint, not the best but not the worst.

The second DRS zone was a joke IMO. If you failed to pass on the (already) long DRS zone you get a free attack right after! Genial! =D> #-o Nevertheless quite a boring race but somehow expected,so...on to Silverstone. :)

Agreed. A pretty boring race. The only thing that caught my attention was di Resta's run on the primes.

For a moment I thought I was back in 2011. Vettel's pace was simply disarming.

Great race for di Resta & Vergne.
