He is the man.

That race shows just how good he is compared to the rest.

I flicked on at lap 20, glad I did. Probably best race this season, did like the ending. "Formation lap please, for our Italian colleagues"  ;D ;D

The overtaking between Hamilton and Kimi showed how it should be done. Very hard but completely fair with each other. Drivers with real class and finesse.
Vettel panics and is a clumsy driver in the heat of battle. And cant accept blame for his mistakes. Hamilton knows this and exploits it imo.
Unfortunately young Verstappen is looking increasingly like he is developing a similar attitude to Vettel which is a shame, as he undoubtedly has a lot of raw talent.

You'd have actually liked this one, it was full of incident. I knew it was a proper race cause the time flew by.

I was too busy sending drones around a certain airstrip I have access to.  I suspect I had more fun...

Wekk, Kimi and Leclerc are to swap teams next season. Cant see how it will be good for either of them. Leclerc isn't going to take the F1 world by storm when he isn't allowed to beat Vettel. Kimi is near the end of his career and I don't know why he would want to bother moving from the front of the grid to midfield.
I just hope that he feels badly treated by Ferrari now, and doesn't do Vettel any favours for the rest of this season.  :)

I think Leclerc will show that Vettel what the rear wing of his car looks like  :)

I also think Ferrari see that Vettel is not the driver they thought they hired.

Didn't see that coming.

39 years old. Why didn't he just retire?  Bit like Jenson Button from memory. He won't win any dry races with Sauber but will keep on earning good money. Does he need more?

Had a look at some of his stats.

Although  Raikkonen won only one World title, he twice finished runner up with a further two P3s to his name.
His 20 grands prix wins puts him tied for 15th on the all-time record along with Mika Hakkinen while he is only the fifth driver in history to achieve 100 podiums.


As for Leclerc I hope he shows Vettel a clean pair of heels and gets told to let him past. Good move by Ferrari. train a young driver up for Vettels retirement and put a spark under Vettel (maybe)

Where is Ocon going? Raikkonen has stopped one young up and coming driver getting a seat.

As already been said, he is a racer, I think he just loves racing and money etc is all just a nice extra. Be a very nice extra.  ;D
