Actually a surprisingly dull race really.
You have Monaco where you can't overtake, and here where DRS and strategy trumps everything.
Needed more safety cars.

According to my sources there's an 80% chance that Oscar Piastri replaces Latifi after Montreal
^ Several sources suggesting Alpine will loan him to Williams but no fixed date yet.
Looks like the Arab is a big Red Bull fan.
He's just ordered Ferrari and Mercedes to raise their floors.
Bit early!
Charles Leclerc will drop 10 places on the grid at the #CanadianGP after taking a third control electronics of the season.

The race is on at the slightly more sociable time of 1am Monday morning Thailand time.
That was one hell of a Quali session. Happy for Alonso.
I'm impressed at George's call, and impressed that Toto let him make it, even if it didn't work out.
Amazingly both Ferraris are still going and it's a Red Bull that's gone tits up in the form of Perez.
Ferrari didn't need to pit Sainz. Stroll put 42 laps on a set and finished in the points. There was only 20 laps.
And if they pitted , they should have put mediums or maybe even softs on. But they only had used mediums
Another better day for Mercedes, fucking hell Sir Lewis even managed fastest lap at one point!
Whatever they tried on George's car in FP improved things drastically, although whether or not that was suited by the track is another story.
Alonso's race was looking good but he fell out of contention and ended up getting a penalty for weaving.

Jackie Stewart believes that Lewis Hamilton should quit F1. According to the three-time world champion it is difficult for Hamilton to turn the tide.
Hamilton once again finished ahead of his teammate at the Canadian Grand Prix, but it is clear that Hamilton is struggling with George Russell at his side. The Mercedes car is not as good as Hamilton was used to, but the Briton is also struggling to beat his younger team-mate.
Hamilton should quit F1
In the Convex Conversation Podcast Jackie Stewart is asked about the Mercedes driver's situation, and the Scot is clear: ''It’s time for him to resign.'' According to Stewart, with his music and clothes, Hamilton has enough other things he can get involved with and also be successful with.
While Hamilton's fans hope that Lewis can stop at a peak, Stewart thinks that moment will not come. He regrets that, but believes it is wiser for Lewis to stop now. '' He’s now struggling a little bit because he’s had a new teammate who’s been quicker than him in qualifying so far, which is gonna be difficult for him to handle,'' Stewart concludes. Hamilton still has a contract until 2023 with Mercedes, but whether he will serve out that contract remains to be seen.
'It’s time for Hamilton to resign from F1'
Oh look snubby try to troll again.
Stop it snubby, you're shit at it.
So you are rejecting the comments of Sir John Young Stewart, then? It is not a troll and you know it. Everything I said about Lewis not being able to win championships unless he has the best car are proving true.
Once again, Schumacher won titles in shit cars like the Benetton.
Snubby's link fails to provide the full quote from Jackie Stewart. He said that Hamilton is the best of his era in f1, which is the best one can hope for. Whether he stays or leaves, he'll still be the best of his time.
Of course he's good enough to carry on if he wants.
Former F1 chief Bernie Ecclestone believes Mercedes boss Toto Wolff is getting “a bit fed up” with Lewis Hamilton.
Ecclestone, now out of F1 leadership after selling up to Liberty Media six years ago, may not have been at a Grand Prix in two years, but the 91-year-old retains close links to many F1 figureheads after over 40 years in charge of the sport.
With Lewis Hamilton struggling to keep up with new team-mate George Russell at the start of their partnership, over the nine race weekends so far in 2022, Ecclestone reckons that Hamilton could choose to walk away from F1 earlier than his contract ends at the conclusion of the 2023 season.
“Lewis might sell his position to Toto,” Ecclestone told the Daily Mail.
“‘This is how much I am getting, I’ll step down and give me half of what I would get’ – Toto can go and do one of his magic deals, offer someone less money, and keep £20 million.
“Nobody needs to tell Toto this because he has already thought of it. Lewis would probably stop under those circumstances.
“I don’t know what he is doing dressing up in all those funny clothes. Has he a deal to it? Is it to get noticed? Maybe that’s it.”
With Russell having the measure of Hamilton at most of the Grand Prix weekends so far this year, Ecclestone suspects that Hamilton’s heart is no longer in the sport as much as it once was – despite Hamilton’s self-proclaimed hunger.
“I didn’t think [Russell] was that good but he has done an excellent job,” he commented.
“I’m surprised. Or is it a case of Lewis doing a bad job? A bit of both.”
Referring to Wolff’s regular apologies over team radio for the lack of competitiveness of the W13, including branding the machine a “s**tbox”, Ecclestone said he believes Hamilton to be more blasé about the situation than when he was younger.
“Toto is getting a bit fed up with Lewis. I don’t think he’s trying, do you?” he questioned.
“Let’s put it another way, Lewis doesn’t seem bothered about losing.
“It’s not like him. He has a competitive nature but he’s taking losing a bit easy for my liking.
“I don’t think he is actively helping George. I don’t think he’s doing anything. I don’t think he cares too much. He’s not prepared to put the effort into winning that he did.”
With Hamilton being a particularly vocal driver about the porpoising issues seen under the new ground effect regulations, as Mercedes have been one of the teams most affected, Ecclestone cast doubts on whether the seven-time World Champion has been struggling with back pain and physical problems quite as much as he has let on in the media.
“All b*******,” Ecclestone bluntly said.
“George is taller and, if it was going to happen to anyone, it would have happened to him.
“There was a bit of Nigel Mansell about it. At least with Nigel, he would get out of the car and rub his left leg as if he had broken it. Next moment, it would be his right leg.”
Bernie Ecclestone: Toto Wolff is getting "a bit fed up" with Lewis Hamilton
Poor old snubby, he's so desperate to get a wind up in but he keeps quoting doddery old fools.
I see Piquet is in the shit for using the N-word about Sir Lewis.
Nothing to do with his daughter being Mad Max's girlfriend or anything of course.
