Mercedes dominating again. Nobody could catch Russell, although Max was hot on his heals at the end. Kimi was impressive working his way through the pack. He might have eventually put the run on Russell if it was a longer race. I suspect this win put some wind back in Russell's sails. Piastri was doing pretty darn good right up to the point where he blew it the corner. Sky sports pundits suggested he was looking in his mirror too much. He probably was, with Max hot on his tail lap after lap. Him and Norris are still ones to watch for, if there cars can be made competitive.
The short filler bit Sky Sports had about Jamie Chadwick getting to drive a Williams F1 car was pretty good. You could really see the excitement in her face when she got out of the car.

She's the first British woman to drive a modern F1 car since 2023. She can also claim to be the first woman to win an Indy NXT race since 2010, when she claimed victory at Road America in 2024.
Jamie may be competing in a Hypercar at LeMans next year. She already run Lemans 24 hrs in an LMP2 car, but is now a reserve driver for Genesis Magma Racing Team.
