An exciting race with a lot of talking points. I cannot help but wonder if Ferrari made the right decision. Much talk about Vettel not giving Charles back the lead but it was easier said than done.  The indecision and back and forth on the radio was terrible to listen to. You could say Vettels retirement saved them a very ugly decision.

Great result for Mercedes. Yes they got somewhat lucky but also did they really. Their engines (much written off on this forum this week) outlasted the Ferrari (ok MGU K).  We also saw after the final restart on even on fresher tyres, with slipstream and DRS Leclerc who was fastest driver all week could not pass Mercedes 2nd driver.

Great race for McLaren too.
