I too missed the start but Lewis has not made any moves yet. Not much happening no matter how much the commentators try to create something.

Fuel and tire management will make the race.

Vettel's car simply stopped creating power. Not sure why.

Good race in Monte Carlo. Some drama but not as much as I expected. Too bad for Vettel but I do like the war at MB. Ferrari continues to struggle - the car is not good and Kimi has been unlucky. Nice job by Ricciardo.

Vettel had mechanical issues early in the race.

NBCSports Chanel is in re-playing the pre-race and race. Just started a couple of minutes ago.

For F1 fans....WARNING, SPOILER ALERT!

A terrific Grand Prix in Canada today.

1. Good for Red Bull - Ricciardo
2. Below expectations for Mercedes - bad day for Hamilton and lucky for Nico
3. Terrible luck for Perez and Massa - last lap!
4. Ferrari's prancing horse is really a donkey in disguise - the thing is too slow - lucky to get points
5. Feel bad for Marrusia - both cars out on the first lap
6. Both McLarens scored points! Yes, I'm not kidding.

What a wild finish on the last lap!

Watching F1 Hungary, and all I can say after the last few weeks is why don't we make Hamilton start in the back every race?? This actually makes the normally predictable F1 race worth watching. Amazing skills displayed by Hamilton, ego issues aside, he is the real deal!

Agree. Don't know who's going to win this race. Would be a remarkable achievement for Lewis to win this race after starting from the pit lane.
