One of the worst ive seen since Valencia 2011.
But lets count the numbers 1 point for first lap i had some action.
One for winner wich is his 1st GP win.
And thats it.
2/10

I knew it since Bahrain that this race will suck if its dry. Barcelona should be better slightly...
Just by knowing that the tracks have huge tarmac run off areas youll know there is no hope without rain there.

-9

Only not a full minus 10 because i guess the start crash was something to watch

The worst race since Hungary 2004

6 - the minimal rating that I can give. At least we got a new winner but no car could go closer to another, that's gotta be more frustrating to the drivers in the race as it is for the fans

4/10.

Actually the great fact of this race was Valteri Bottas as I like him and think he's a great talent who deserved a win, so basically all the 4 points can be explained by Bottas.

About the race itself, that was really a bad one....but I tell you that I've never expected anything different from Sochi. Despite the fact I'm sure Russia deserves a Formula One Grand Prix, I think insisting in a circuit like Sochi is a major mistake. Why do you need to insist in Sochi If there is a high quality circuit in Moscow's outskirts? It may not be an example of "contemporary achitecture" but it's a good circuit.

Sochi has nothing but an interesting surrounding landscape and the mountains in the background, only! The circuit itself is a sh*it....it's all flat, no big elevation changes, no overtaking points. It's one of the worst circuits I've ever seen my life. Russia doesn't deserve that.

No overtake, and only 9 pages of the official thread, what to add?

Well, there used to be a little excitement at the end, for 3-4 laps, so, I'm a generous god, I give a 3.

10 from here too. Would have been 10+ if Ferrari didn't screw Kimi's qualifying and the race itself due that. Great improvement after the much loathed previous race! Now for the championship! :thumbsup:

A very generous 5 for the chase of Vettel, but overtaking is impossible with the crap new cars. Not even 5 seconds quicker as promised so what was the point? To get the sharkfins back? ugly cars, no overtaking, tyres that don't degrade. Is this pre 2009 F1? There needs to be some action taken immediately by the new owners

Didn't watch the race after looking at the 1min highlights,results and rating, so I won't vote. Hopefully Kimi wins the next race, that'd be good for the championship.

Once again, I've never watched the Russian GP. :lol:

Watching it now, this must be the most boring race in a long time. Too bad some guys voted 10 because a countryman won.

The only explanation for NVirkkula's rating is that he's already celebrating Walpurgis Night

Or he's been sniffing gasoline. Either way. :innocent:

3 from my side.
Probably for next season they need to do more agressive track surface to have more tyre degradation and therefore more pit-stops during the race.

0. That wasn't even worthy of being called a race.
