A little disappointing that with all the new regs, there was so little overtaking this weekend. :(

i think conditions played a big part in it... one dry line into tamburello meant no option to send one up the inside, and no drs meant no massive overspeed round the outside.

On the plus side, the top 10 finishers were from 8 different teams, so quite unlike the noahs ark situation we were getting a year or two ago.

i think normal service will be resumed at a nice dry miami circuit, looks to be some decent opportunity for overtakes.

Well it's certainly become much less predictable than it was for years, which can only be a good thing.

Felt a bit sorry for Charles, but going for 2nd when you are in a safe 3rd place that is what can happen.

Good to see Lando and Charles in 3rd and 4th, but Lewis is getting shown up a bit now he seems to have a team-mate with real talent!
