<div class="bbWrapper">A maiden win that for the right and wrong reasons Charles will always remember ... as above, this was the Max of old leaving us a pretty dull race until the closing laps ... <br /> <br /> Be interesting to see if Charles can go b2b next week ...</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">WTF did it hit to launch like that?</div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">The big chunky Sausage kerb (in place to enforce track limits). They have now been removed at that particular corner.</div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">Kinda made me laugh. It seems only Carlos was willing to get on with it.<br /> <br /> Q3 under investigation is laughable. They can’t ‘make’ teams do a final run. Maybe they’ll penalise them on the minimum lap speed.</div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">Made me laugh! Any student of the recent antics in Moto3 with it's spate of new regulations and penalties would have seen that one coming. I knew as soon as they stopped for a tea break at the first chicane, there was nobody going to get the lap they wanted. If any lap at all.<br /> They must have all seen what Mercedes did on the first Q3 outing and surely must have assumed that everyone would play games on the second outing, but still they all stuck to getting out as late as possible.....derrr....</div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">Vettel narrowly avoided having his only lap time in final qualifying deleted for &quot;abusing track limits&quot; at the final Parabolica corner. This due to extra scrutiny at the corner following the removal of the kerbing or <i>launch pad</i> as Alex Peroni now prefers to call it. S.V. pleaded extenuating circumstances in so far as he was driving a Ferrari at the time of the alleged incident.<img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink ;)" data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /></div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">Well SV was over the line,and so the race control have shown mixed signals,still a interesting qualifying if only to show that the collective brains that run these teams blew a collective fuse,my thoughts were they were not going out,just why MB did not go a couple of minutes earlier is a mystery as it was it turned into a farce,still it should be a great race .</div>
