Really cute to see everyone on the podium super happy for Kimi like that. The battle between the Ferraris was certainly entertaining too, for them as well as for me. Nice to see Lewis happy.

since being fan of J. Villeneuve (and my god that was stressful experience) I don't have 'my' driver but for some reason (maybe cause he seems only who really stud up against Max race-bullying - Lando is pretty vanilla) I would love Russell to take title this year.
but seeing the 'Drive to survive' (25 and especially this season), also NETFLIX 'the Seat' documentary, one can not to love Kimi.
he's such, such a nice, sweet and genuine dude and breath of fresh F1 air.
seeing his reaction (those tears and being unable to speak) against some of the veteran reactions after victory.... really... priceless

my dream scenario would be Russell this year, with some victories for Kimi then next year Kimi's time
