The first half of the race was super boring but then that second half... omfg!
Unfortunately Max is way too impetuous this season; the win would have 100% been his, if he had just waited half a lap longer to overtake Hamilton. Very solid race by Ricciardo though.
But without the safety car Red Bull would have been nowhere near the podium so it still looks to be a Mercedes - Ferrari battle for the championship.
Conspiracy time; it was Red Bull's sister team that caused the safety car at exactly the right moment; both Red Bulls were in the pits almost as soon as it arrived. :p

I remember, some years ago, when Nelson Piquet crashed his car in Singapur and his teammate, Alonso, won that race with a very slow Renault hehe.
But today i think Red Bull wants Toro R. with their (shitty) Honda engines in better positions so i don't think they wanted an aacident with a safety car (it should be only virtual, i don't know why Charlie Whiting didn't used it).
Anyway, probably one of the most interesting races in this season :)

How it works
Predicting the winner would be much too easy in a field of twenty where only six drivers (if that) will likely contest most wins. To make things more interesting you will have to predict the top three finishers in the correct order and do so before the start of the qualifying session on Saturday.
Race Preview
So far Mercedes hasn't gotten the results but I still think they are the best team by far. Red Bull claimed the cars were great last weekend; shame both were out of the race after a few laps then... I'm really hoping for rain during the race.
Keep in mind that this is an early morning race (if you are in Europe), so the qualifying is earlier than most times.
