Wet races tend to close up the field in many track events - making the racing closer and more exciting!

Awesome driving.
It looked like he was out of it after the pitstops.
He made others look pedestrian. His sense of grip must be truly amazing.
I don't think he will move from Red Bull. Next year's rule changes look as if Red Bull have a good car and ability to suit the aerodynamics requirements.
Hamilton has made a great comeback but Rosberg looks set to be Champion.
Hamilton, Vestappen and Riciardo look to be the best "racers" amongst the drivers. Rosberg has the look of a fast driver but not a top racer.
Red Bull could well be a real challenge next year.

I think it might be a long time

Judging from the news today some other people also think this.
Ron has been ousted.
Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.

Ron has been ousted. Something had to change, in F1 they have been under performing for years.

He's lost too many friends by the sound of it.

It looks like he was more interested in the road car operation as it grew F1 success fell away.
Like VW once you have established a lucrative market why spend more than you need to. Ron is a cynical person IMHO.

Reg , I ain't a Ferrari fan just thinking how they think they are entitled and have a right to be number one along with the money they pour in . But they would be a miss if gone . Also think F. Williams daughter is a pretty girl hope she is not as twisty as her dad , or she is off my list . Wonder if she fancies a spin in MOG  As a life time F1 fan, and regular complainer here about how dire it has become, I must completely agree with you all. This must rate as one of the all time great drives. What a champion he will be when the current Mercedes dominance ends as it must in the great scheme of things. Even the Memsahib is now watching F1 and her interest in cars is minimal in fact if asked what car we have she would answer "a white one". Please, don't wish him onto Ferrari, I feel it would spoil him. Although I love everything Ferrari they are not the force they were and they have always been very political and played favourites.
If Red Bull can get Renault to produce a slightly better engine then that team under Christian's leadership will produce another run of world championships.
