7. Fun start and some good overtakes. Those hard tires left a lot to be desired leaving some outside of optimal strategies.

Enjoyed that, some good strategy calls, some great overtaking, and the real chance of a battle for the lead. Gave it an 8 !

That was an ok race, the tyre deg and various strategies to accommodate that I found particularly interesting. Though short lived, that battle between Norris and Russell was superb. 6.

About as good as Barcelona can be, some great passes from Lewis and Lando (the part where he ran side by side with George for half a lap was the highlight)
But I didn't "feel" the "threat" for the lead, it just wasn't gonna happen If Max starts within the first 2 rows, possibly 3, its an easy win for him I don't buy all this "Red Bull isn't the dominant car any more" B.S, that's just salemenship from RB to make them look less dominant than they are and backed up by Liberty who desperately need things to look like other drivers might win for ratings and money reasons So knowing Max would win reduces the score somewhat. |

6/10 I thought it was fairly boring, there were a few DRS drivebys I suppose. I would prefer if DRS drivebys were not possible.

I think the Mercedes drivers both provided some great entertainment. That and the strategic game wasn't bad.
I also think the "Red Bull isn't the dominant car any more" is at least partly hot air. They are the best team, and that car is still the benchmark. |

An 8. Plenty of action and drama, with a great battle for the win

Surprisingly good. I automatically assume that any race at this track is going to be rubbish, but that was good with some action at the sharp end as well as further down the field. 7

6. It was OK. I don't think there was any real battle for the win though, even if Lando blames himself for not getting away in front of Max.

At least it wasn't boring (well not as much) like some. I decided to watch it as some of my Spanish neighbors think that F1 is the dogs wotsits ! and I found it quite good for a change and didn't go to sleep, I gave it an 8. My nephew works for McLaren so I was cheering for another win

Good but not great. 7. Lando and George going wheel-to-wheel for a full half-lap was the best entertainment. Both of them very determined but also keeping it sensible.

Thought about an 8 more than a 6.Compared to the 1 car domination of last year this is a much better season generally. |
