Surprised to find this thread on Page 5 after such a fun show... Love to see Alpine pull a rabbit out of the hat, and Alonso was epic..

But I can't get over how lucky Hamilton is - don't get me wrong he good too (great even)... But the way luck always swings his way is incredible. Engine trouble? That's always for his teammate. Him being last means nothing, you always know he's still in line for a win... 2 weeks ago he takes out his oppponent and gets very little damage and a free repair. This time his teammate takes out ALL his opponent(s) and the free repair is not sufficient for them (too much damage)... Then he completely muffs the restart tire swap and is dead last, and yet he's still on the podium ;-) But wait that's not all, they DQ #2 and now he's second ! It's uncanny. Yes, talent, best car, but also a lucky star the size of a whale d!#k !

Both MAx and Checo are now on engine#3 facing early penalties this season because a Mercedes car or another punted them. Maybe that rule also needs revisiting..
