I swear the more chaotic a race gets, the more powerful Stroll becomes.

He himself is chaos and so he's in perfect harmony with his surroundings.

Really nice to see Anthony Hamilton console Hadjar. Sweet gesture.

An unfortunate incident, but he'll learn.

Surprised this Alonso fella hung in there for so long - not easy being a rookie in conditions like these.

If the rain hadn't hit the track it could have worked out for ferrari - to be fair Lewis was on the bad end of some bad Merc calls last season so hes probably used to it.

Looks like Ferrari and Redbull have a bit of catup to do. Antonelli did well.

Lewis getting lots of unwanted info from the pitwall was gold. I didn't get a sense of how the Mercs were doing. Will get to see if they are as mercurial as last year I guess.

Fernando, the chad he is, taking his hands off the wheel when crashing.

So many drivers don't do that, and we saw with Ricciardo how it can end..

Yes I know that, his case was special, but in other cases not taking your hands off can easily end with broken fingers like Ricciardo
