The last lap was interesting, but otherwise a total snoozer.
A generous 3/10.

How Bottas did not a penalty again is beyond me. It was silly to have timing for everything, but apparantly no automated jump start recognisition? From the onboard of Bottas his car, it was an obvious jump start. He moved before the lights were out. What is this? Benelux F4 championship?

How about you take another look at the start instead of babbling about it for the 10th time.

Does anyone know how close Bottas was to the front of his grid slot?

The beam that is broken to denote an automatic jump start must be at the front, so if he was rolled back by a cm or two it's possible he could've slightly rolled forward half a wheel rotation or so before the red and by the time he got to the jump start sensor, the lights were off

Only thing I think can explain it really

I will put a 7 because that race is long and it didn't seemed too long for me, I was very entertained by tire drama, too bad it didn't translate into passing

3/10 thanks to a little suspense

Very lame race with something at the beginning and the end but that was it. 4 which is probably too much already.

4. I wasn't able to see it live, so I checked TBK-ers rating and I thought 'it seems a snoozefest' but there were chaos at the start and some battling (Raikkonen vs Bottas & Ricciardo vs Hamilton), plus a nice ending. So a perhaps high 4.

Last lap was interseting, but that's all.

4 points, I'm a generous god.

Did you think after Azerbaijan well get an exciting race as it was there, i was prepared already for a snoozefest in Austria. And i wasnt dissapointed. Start and last 2-3 laps were interesting and thats about it...
Track is short, and its hard to overtake here unless tyres drop...
Hopefully the next one will get us the excitement back.
a 4/10

7. It automatically gets better when your 3 year old daughter cuddles up with you to watch it. Even though it's heartbreaking to explain Max is out of it yet again.

Your daughter is messing up the numbers. :lol:

But seriously; sounds like a heart-warming experience.
