Max did well as it least he doesn't start at the back. Stroll and Ocon did well and Bottas is yet again off the boil. Palmer is finished after today's dismal performance.
Vettel's got a tough afternoon with three Mercedes engined cars between himself and Hamilton.

What was it I said earlier about the Ferraris still not up to Merc performance?

Stroll seemed a bit timid (although that's easy to say from the sofa I suppose!) but held his own. Ricciardo was impressive. Wonder what Max would have been able to do without the early bump.
*Another* double engine retirement for McLaren/Honda. Please please please say it will be a Renault engine next year...
In any event, I feel the Merc has the measure of the Ferrari, and Hamilton has the edge over Vettel due to a better qualifying pace and better track position.
I am not sure what Verstappen is trying to do in the opening laps. It is probably due to the exuberance of youth, but he needs to calm down, maintain a steady head, and not try to win a race in the first few corners.

Ive always said drivers make heir own luck, and Maxkooks to be doing just that right now. He'll be amazing (but probably a bit dull) once he gets a dominant car but he's trying too hard in a car that can't win under normal circumstances.

Agree the race wasn't as interesting as some, the number of actual decent overtakes can be counted on one hand, I think. I never seem to get fully into the highlighted races, I lose all sense of time through the races compared to the live/unedited coverage. Things like when the first make their pit stops and how far apart the competitors running together make theirs, and whether they switch, or gain/lose time etc.

Sainz to replace Palmer, possibly as early as Malaysia. In return, Renault would release TR from its engine contract at the end of this year. TR then picks up Honda, freeing up Renault to supply McLaren, giving Renault another team that might be able to win, and RB get first dibs on Honda if they ever build an engine better than Renault can.
But there's a chance it will put Alonso and Max/DannyRic in closely-matched machinery next year (even if not as quick as Merc & Ferrari) then I'm all for it.
