Meh! That was OK. Although I could tell the race wasn’t hugely spicy this week, as I actually managed to watch some of the race without steam coming off my keyboard liking, reposting, copying, pasting and saving tweets.
I mean, Max was 6 seconds up the road after 8 laps. Not there wasn’t some overtaking behind him, but it was when *spoiler alert* Bottas came to a stop on lap 19 that the race got a tad more exciting.
Nevertheless, you did provide a goodly supply of funny tweets this week for me to pick a top 10.
So, without further ado here are the Top 10 Funniest Tweet Awards for the Chinese Grand Prix 2024:
10th Place
@_MoMars with fan reaction watching Hamilton try and close the gap to pass Piastri, who had significant damage from the 1st safety car restart
9th Place
@beer_mat_critic with live footage from Alonso’s car in the closing laps of the race as he closed in on Hamilton but hit the gravel on the last corner and made a major save, which saw most of us watching gasp and then nod with appreciation …
8th Place
@MissCarrieW with unseen footage of Lewis in the early stages of the race, despite him starting on the soft tyre …
7th Place
@Travisty_22 with live footage from K-Mag’s cockpit as word came from race control that the second safety car would be ending, and he realised who was behind him … *spoiler alert* Stroll caused the 2nd safety car on the 1st safety car restart …
6th Place
@abudhabigp with unseen footage of Valtteri waiting for a ride back to the pits after his engine went kaput!
5th Place
@pgillett2024 with live footage from Leclerc’s car as he passed Sainz in a similar manner to how his teammate passed him is yesterday’s sprint race.
4th Place
@Grimking85 with an action replay of Alonso at the start of today’s race stealing 2nd from Perez
3rd Place
@KitekidX with live footage of the track marshalls trying to move Bottas’s stranded car
2nd Place
@WheelieBadF1 with a look at THAT move that caused the 2nd safety car and damaged Ricciardo’s race and caused damage to Piastri’s car … although Stroll wasn’t too happy with his 10-second penalty that he got for this!!!
1st Place
@beer_mat_critic with a look at the Ferrari strategy department … Not that they completely and utterly screwed up … for once … but how many plans did we have today?

Girl in the Pitlane 
I couldn’t believe how long it took for them to wheel out Bottas car. Even Lando got around to doing a cheap pitstop. Unbelievable…
stroll.. what can we say. I still wonder why he’s here. Alonso is doing miracles with the team. Stroll is just running a never ending tab..🤷🏻♂️
truly unfortunate for both RB cars. Danny is not having any luck. He was doing so well today. And then…😔
McLaren look like they’re catching up with the rest of the field. Ferrari need to get some upgrades on the car pronto.
damn red bulls look unstoppable.. really hope it’s not going to be like this for the rest of the season. 🤞🏻

It was rather a long time for that wasn’t it …
… Stroll will be there until he says he’s had enough … but if he can’t even take responsibility for the crash with Ricciardo, we could be waiting a long time …
… it was a shame about the RB’s, but I fear the other RB’s (Red Bull) will run off with this season again … McLaren are definitely in the running for p2 in the constructors alongside Ferrari … and hopefully upgrades will be coming soon …
