I think Kimi had more pace than Jordan.
He did have more pace.
But it was totally engrossing racing.
I'll answer Manage's point on the inters.
Quite often, if you go to a demonstration of Formula 1 and they don't have tyre warmers, they will... If the car's going to do one or two laps, they will run it on an inter because it's a much softer compound.
And over a couple of laps, you can have quite a big advantage over a slick.
So I think McLaren's gamble does look like madness on paper, but obviously they had some info about the weather, but also the track temperature was so low.
I think they thought...
that they would get track position from the start.
They would have, there'd be a load of madness behind them.
It almost guarantees some sort of a shunt behind them.
And it was a gamut in terms of narrative, but I don't think it was as big a punt as people thought.
What I do find odd is that they didn't change them straight away.
Yes.
On both cars.
But, you know, they didn't,
Lando, they both had very quiet races, actually, didn't they?
Oscar had quite a noisy race in ways that you don't really want to remind yourself of.
Yeah, yeah, I saw that picture.
For me, it was a very uplifting race, because I've been very cynical about it this year.
