Why not be optimistic for Lando doing a great job and seeing out the win? Instead of being pessimistic about a driver you don't want to win. Nothing is a given in this sport.
Wow, what a dramatic race.
Shame for Lando. Will be a good learning experience. DOD as far as I’m concerned.
P2 for Max From P20. Epic drive.👍
2 Points going into Turkey. When will Lewis take the new PU? 😏
Congratulations to Lewis on win 100.

Just noting that you love being disappointed at the same drivers winning, instead of being positive. I'm fine, maybe you're not.
YAY!
LANDO DID A GREAT JOB!
Really wish he would have listened to team directions and pitted.
Oh well.
We’re really being treated with a great season, aren’t we? I mean I myself have only been watching F1 closely for 4 season now, so not much reference, but with both a close championship battle and a close midfield battle it seems like something special indeed.
He was holding off Hamilton just fine until the rain. And as previous races have shown us, he's struggled overtaking a Mclaren.
Easy to judge him saying he should have listened to the team. Being so close to your first ever grand prix win and knowing fine margins will decide it must be a hard call to make. Hamilton also ignored his team the first time he was told to pit.
It's like you're secretly rooting for Hamilton/Max to win so you can enjoy being disappointed.
Norris gambled and lost, did a stellar job otherwise. Doubt anyone would disagree.
Considering how poor most of the pit stops were today, I can understand him not wanting to do it unless he had to.
I think how quickly the rain ramped in intensity caught everyone out and by the time the first tranche had come in for Inters, anyone following a lap or two later would have lost too much time so I don't think Norris would have won and likely would not have made the podium.
Enjoyed the race from start to finish and especially happy to see Hamilton atop the podium again. Max finishing 2nd was great to see. I feel for Lando, though.
Exactly how I feel. It is a lesson he will not forget. Hopefully it won't be much longer until he gets his first win.
Max's accomplishment was also terrific. Congrats to Lewis for win 100. I'm ready to see how the next generation does, starting with Russell next season . . . (Max as well)
It’s cool to see the respect between Lando and Lewis. The latter knows the former is the future and is impressed by the talent I think, nice to see.
Credit to Max for the second place finish yesterday. I think he’ll win it this year but not cleanly through the circumstances that seem to be making this season more exciting than most.

The only lap led that really matters is the last, but that is still a commanding performance by Max.
Yeah this season has been amazing for action. Norris' time will come. Was stressful seeing him slide all over near the end with all that rain. lol!
Very interested to see how next season will differ with the new cars and changes. FIA is looking into how to work with the sprint races next year in terms of making them more exciting and implement them better.

Those laps lead figures are amazing, but same as possession in football, you can have 80% plus possession but still lose the game of course.
