Sky Sports app saying he's down to 7th.
That was as of 7 or 8 minutes ago. Hopefully it'll become clearer as the evening goes on.

Yeah, Max was untouchable from Q3 onwards.
Albon did brilliantly, again. Obviously gutted but that won't do him any harm to show that he isn't to be trifled with. I really like him. Not your usual racing driver.
As for Ferrari!? Vettel is a knob behind the wheel and loses it time after time when racing wheel to wheel. Out of the car he seems a decent bloke, but how many times...???

Shame for Sainz that it will be one of the the few podiums he'll get at most and he can't celebrate it as he should, wasn't a hard decision to penalise Lewis and they should have suspended the podium till they confirmed, give the stewards an extra 5/10 minutes, confirm it and get Carlos up there with the champagne he deserves. Had a moment taken away from him.

Just watching the replay and Max was really lucky, in that pit stop, that Kubica didn't put him in the wall.

Just watched an interview with Hamilton. Does anyone else support, adore and respect a sportsman for what they do but think they are a total bellend as a person?
I've tried to like him but he his simply unlikeable, just come across as an arrogant little shit.
Anyway, looking forward to some good racing today. Verstappen splitting Mercedes and Ferrari should be make for some eventful racing.

Can see Vettel getting a good start on the softs and skittling someone ahead. Probably Leclerc!
Also looks like Leclerc is going to be disqualified for having too much fuel, but only after the race, which is weird. If it's over, it's over.

The absolute proof that Hamilton is up there with the three or four greatest drivers of all time (I really don't care about his personality, to be honest). He had no need whatsoever to get pole and then win the final race of the season. But he does it. Just to prove a point. The man is a serial winner.
Leclerc was at risk of losing third place because governing body the FIA discovered before the race that the amount of fuel Ferrari said was in his car was different from the amount that was when it was checked. But after a post-race investigation, Ferrari were fined €50,000 for what had been a 4.88kg discrepancy and the result stood.
that is not a punishment for any F1 team and they should have been disqualify from the race never mind letting them keep 3rd place shocking and money does talk in other sports
