There were some early pit stops at Lap 10, with no overtakes even happening before. Williams didn't fix their lead driver, Albon's tyre on properly and he had to make a very slow lap back to the pits. They would get a ten second stop-go penalty for that.
There were brief glimmers of excitement; Alonso's tyres caught fire after his pit stop and Perez had a big off through the gravel.
Verstappen and Norris nearly had race, mostly manufactured excitement from the commentators. He was over a second behind on the last lap. We were also promised a safety car, which never materialised. Behind them was LeClerc, a little something for the Tifosi. Then Piastri, Sainz, Hamilton, Russell, Perez, Stroll and Tsunoda finishing the points.
Russell got the point for Fastest Lap and Norris was Driver of the Day. Hopefully there'll be loads of overtaking and excitement at the next race....oh, it's Monaco.
