5. It wasn't the worst race and it wasn't the best but it was quite interesting because of the tyre issues.

I gave it a 7. Hard to score, because it was actually a bad race, but had enough weird action going on, partly due to the chewing gum tyres.
I might have been too generous. |

I gave it a 6; pretty low for me. The tyres were both good and bad. Good, because it injected a bit of variety into the strategies. Bad, because I want to see the fastest car/driver win, not the one that chews up his tyres least.
It was also the most spread out field for a very long time, just like in the "good" old days of the 50s and 60s. Only four cars on the lead lap, and 20+ second gaps between them. Only one car one lap down. Most of the rest two laps down. |

Not a great race but some good bits, the gap between the top 3 teams and the rest is however alarming. Gave it a 4

7. enjoyed it a great deal to be honest.
it was an unusual race and the conclusion was not a forgone conclusion. indeed there was a gap between the top teams and the rest of the field (which has been really common this year imo) but there was some fun battles up and down and i actually liked how the lapped cars influenced the race. |

4. Horrible track. Crap tyres. To have the WDC decided here (again) on such a naff circuit is almost unforgiveable....

4. Did not enjoy that one. Specially after the great race we had at the last round.

7 - a high score because of the tyre issues, you didn't know what was going to happen, except for first place

The track has undergone a number of changes over the years but as to which would be the better layout for F1 I think is tricky, as a lot of the issues surrounding the actual racing are related to the cars themselves.
