Glad Ricciardo got Renault's first podium and as he's had a tough time with them since leaving Red Bull. He's certainly come on quite strong in this second half of this season.
Got to admit a bit like Racing Point (Aston Martin) with ditching Perez for Vettel, not sure Alonso is a better option (upgrade) over Daniel right now he finally seems to be getting to grips with the car which is luck goes his and Renault's way could be best of the rest this year, even better than Ferrari?

Holy cow!
Anyone seen that Grosjean crash!
Seems to be ok, thankfully.
In fact what on earth was the fireman on the non-track side of the barrier doing? He rushes up and starts spraying yards away from the fire and at the ground. The other two on the track side at least spray on the car.

Conversely, the other marshall was all over Stroll's car like a rash, even though it was not even smoking I'm not going to be very popular after writing this but whilst I'm glad he is OK, it was all Grosjean's fault........again. He cut right across the track with not even a glance in his mirrors. He could quite easily have put Kvyat into the barrier instead. Personally I'm glad he's not got a seat next year as he is a liability.

Credit to the halo for saving his life, after the event of the Marshal crossing the live track to deal with the fire on Perez's car I think the sport needs to start to have paid / trained marshals at every event... what was he thinking?
Really felt for Perez - but then again the points have swung in McLaren's favour for the 3rd spot in the championship and as a mate works there I know the prize money will come in handy!

What an action packed race! Grosjean's car cut in half was an eye opener and the Halo certainly saved his life.

Hard luck on Hamilton testing positive for COVID - But I'm genuinely looking forward to seeing what George Russell can do in the Merc (hopefully at the next two races!)
Should be a great end to what has been an interesting season in a challenging time.

Glad Grosjean survived that dramatic crash, looked a bit concerning, hope they can look into that, and hope Hamilton isn't out of it for long.

Like all these serious incidents it will have multiple causes. Unlike the 70's of which it was reminiscent, you would hope they would come up with some preventative measures fairly rapidly.
