What a race!! One of the most exciting race ever. Kudos to Russell, he tried his level best, gave his 200% but sadly couldn't get to finish where he belongs. Estaben Ocon gets his maiden podium after Perez.
Sergio Perez
Mercedes struggled a lot in pit stop, changed the tyres of Russell but gave him Bottas's set, and change Bottas's tyres but replaced those with the older one. Yes, its that confusing. Hence, that cost both of the deserving drivers a lot.
Perez and Stroll made Racing Point proud enough for a whole season.
Yes, the Mercedes Team was feeling short of Lewis Hamilton. The jumble-up of tyres was one of the worst misunderstanding in F1 history ever.
Ocon also registered his maiden P2 in F1.
