Hamilton was stone dead last after the restart so you could argue his luck evened out somewhat.
No you can’t possibly argue that

Hats-off to Alonso for making the race super exciting (which what the F1 fans like) and for being the team player during the race, ensuring Ocon his debut GP win 👍 Alonso knows Hamilton very well, being Hamilton’s first ever team mate in McLaren-Mercedes back in 2007. Given the track and atleast a competitive car, you can see that Alonso can fend off Hamilton. Alpine made it great today, a GP Win & a Great Racing Battle ::psy::::psy::

Why is there a RM on the wrist of Alonso 😒 shouldn't it be a B&R? Have not noticed this before

Messy race. A lot of hard luck stories, but what a drive from Alonso...and of course great to see a new race winner.

You need a few of these crazy races to break up the predictable pattern of most races

Initially, I was not really excited to watch the race given the premise that Hamilton is on pole on a track he won a staggering 8x times! 😲 Might be same-same story I guess. And expecting him to win the least 🙄 But the wet and crash made it a bit too different (not that I want anyone to crash or anything 😉)

Mercedes-AMG is back on track for an 8th Double Consecutive Title! Probably this will be unbeatable in our lifetime 😗

Couldn't agree more. This was a real race to the flag, for all positions too.

Never seen only one car on the grid📖.
Me either. Incredible that team MB, with the leader of this race would leave him out there. Difficult to find pictures of it, these are all I can find. Hamilton with only the safety car behind him😵‍💫

So this budget cap thing was a genius idea. Just keep trashing the oppositions cars until they run out of money, right?

Watched the highlights? on Sky, had turn the sound off though, are the commentary team invited to the Mercedes Xmas party? LH must be happy, got his first all non white grid. No surprise him making his way through most of the field though, all cars that would have qualified behind him so little contest.

Bad weekend for motorsport with a member of the orange army killed at Brands. RIP.

Not to mention LeClerc, Norris, Bottas and Perez all wiped out on lap 1
