Again, hope for an interesting race/outcome rested on LeClerc doing well. He didn't. Ferrari made a complacent mistake by not sending him to put in a lap that would qualify. He said he would risk a crash in order to move up the field during the race. Lap 10 gave him a puncture and by lap 19 he was out.
The only other interest came from: Verstappen being given a penalty for an unsafe release in the pit lane, six cars coming to gentlemanly stop at a bend and the ongoing discussion between Hamilton and Bono over his tyres.
Has this race had it's day?
What did we learn this week? Not everyone suits a red baseball cap.

Spain GP - "Awesome day in the seat there"
I thought my maths had left me down, as I thought 0.6 second was quite a hefty gap on the grid from Bottas to Hamilton but no one mentioned it for ages. Well done Bottas.
Ricciardo also took a penalty going to the grid, for something "naughty" apparently, but I don't know what. I think the commentators were having a siesta this race.
The race was fairly predictable. Hamilton led from start to finish. Ferrari made The Switch. Norris sprayed gravel about the track like an Angus near gravel. Typically Hamilton got all the safety car luck and Bottas got none. And Toro Rosso really lost out through the safety car, who stacked in the pit lane and then ballsed up the stop. For the first time in a long time, the much-lauded safety car actually created some drama. Hamilton is also very good at a restart.
Shame about the empty grandstands.
