On the contrary, that race was an excellent example of a recovery drive there by Hamilton.
Absolute stonker of a race from start to finish - particularly loved to see Alonso defending so beautifully over so many laps. Every point that team got this weekend was well deserved.
I really hope Alpine build a car that puts that pair at the front more often going forward.
With regards to Vettel's disqualification, did the team take their eye off the meter towards the end? I noted Vettel wasn't told to park the car until the end of the cool down - when other teams have been short they've advised the driver to park just over the finish line. Also the line in that report about there apparently being another litre in there is rather mysterious... or disingenuous which is probably more in line with what I'd expect tbh.
Not for a moment suggesting Vettel shouldn't have been disqualified, but it does make Bottas' 5 grid penalty seem rather piffling. Either way, if his fate wasn't already certain it's got to be now.
