I thought the race at Monza was a shambles. There should have been at the very least a last lap restart. It was always on the cards that Max Verstappen would have won anyway but a last lap restart would have at least given LeClerc a fighting chance. Who won the driver of the day? I missed that. But I would have found it hard to choose between Nyck Devries (the Williams replacement driver for Alex Albon - get well soon Alex), who finished a very creditable 8th, Carlos Sainz - and I hate to say this - whinge master Hamilton, who had a good race too. Anyway - back to the race itself - the FIA need to get this situation sorted out for next season - preferably earlier.
 
Strange race in Singapore on the Sunday just gone. Perez deserved his win but with the conditions being as they were, it seemed as though whatever tyres were chosen, the drivers weren't fully able to master the conditions. George Russell and Mercedes gambled on soft tyres but it was a gamble that never paid off. Who would have thought that a Mercedes driver would finish a full two laps behind everyone else (other than those forced to retire)? And that, in a race that wasn't even completed in full. Two laps short, due to time factors being brought into play. That said, it did make for an edge of your seat occasion, and Verstappen is still not yet certain of winning the drivers championship - although I think he will. Full credit to Sergio though. It was a very brave performance. It's also unlikely Max will be crowned champion in Japan this coming weekend. So the season has turned out to be more exciting than it might have been, had conditions in Singapore been ideal.
