I wonder whether they will bother to show us the winner going over the line.

Great Race.

Double Points for Force India, and a podium for Sergio. Brilliant.

EDIT: Told you Panda.

Drab finish after such promise but an excellent, thrilling race overall.

Christ! Only just!

They cut back with about 3 seconds to go! Appalling camera direction.

Absolutely incredible

So much nail-biting going on in the final 10 laps for Lewis. Both Lewis and Nico were utterly incredible.

Just absolutely brilliant racing from the Mercs and down the field as well.

Bet the BBC are kicking themselves that they didn't have this one live.

Fantastic race! Shame about the safety car as I think the two and three stop strategies were converging anyway and I would have like to see how that played out. Mercedes just blew everyone else away and are looking good on their tyres. Can they win every race this season?

It was terrible. The production/director should be sacked. Totally spoilt it for me.

If they never go back to Bahrain, it will be too soon!!

Aren't they just? Best dry race I've seen in a long time. Shame for the BBC really because Malaysia should have been highlights only, since it was such a poor race.

They've spent a bit on the fireworks!

Hamilton's new curly look is silly!

I don't think they can win every race this season but they're the equivalent of the 1988 McLarens in my view...2 drivers pushing each other in a car that is miles in front, with the best engine as well.

And Alonso punches the air as Ferrari come in .... 9th and 10th. Lots of work to be done at Maranello.

Ferrari are a mess. They look like they did in the early and mid 90s, with their design team not having any clue what they're doing.

Red Bull, Williams and FI are all ahead of them. May I add what a sterling job FI have done this season so far.

It was only exciting in the last 10 laps ....... and we only saw the front two cars for about 3 laps.

Suppose F1 needs Maldonado after all!!
