Any drama had to be found further back in a race without major incidents or crashes. In addition to the showy performances by the Mercedes, Perez, Verstappen’s teammate, raced up to fourth after starting 11th thanks to a bad qualifying. Expected rain, which might have made things interesting, never really came. ☔🤷♂️😕
Late in the race, Verstappen was warned about straying off the course on some turns, but even had he been penalized, it would very likely have been five seconds, not nearly enough to take the race away. 🚧🚫❌
As they have for weeks, his rivals and their teams will be shaking their heads and wondering how they can possibly stop him. 🤔🏎️🤷♂️

Qualifying 101
The first rule of qualifying has to be: Don’t hit your teammate. In a sport where every millisecond counts, the last thing a team wants is their drivers colliding during qualifying. Unfortunately, that’s exactly what happened between Lewis Hamilton and George Russell in the previous Saturday’s qualifying session. It was an embarrassing moment for Mercedes, but they managed to put the incident behind them and regroup for the race. 🏎️💥🚫
What They’re Saying “I had the harder compound. I knew the start was maybe going to be a bit tricky.” — Max Verstappen, like all of us trying to find some drama. 🤔🏁🤷♂️
“What a result for our team. We definitely didn’t expect the result we had today.” — Lewis Hamilton. Despite the challenges faced by Mercedes leading up to the race, Hamilton expressed his satisfaction with the team’s performance and acknowledged the impressive outcome. 👏🏆👍
“I think they’re a bit too quick at the moment. We’re working on it. If not, maybe next year.” — Hamilton, realistic about Red Bull. Hamilton recognizes the dominance of Red Bull and acknowledges the work that Mercedes needs to put in to match their pace. 🚀🔥🏎️
“I thought it would rain at one point, but it was sweat from my hair.” — George Russell. Russell humorously comments on the weather expectations and his own physical exertion during the race. 😅🌧️💦
“It was just a misunderstanding, a lack of communication in the garage during an intense moment so no one is to blame.” — Mercedes team principal Toto Wolff, brushing off a qualifying collision between Hamilton and Russell. Wolff downplays the incident, attributing it to miscommunication and ensuring there is no blame placed on anyone. 🤝🏎️🤷♂️
