Well Lewis Hamilton won again and it is absolutely sure that mercedes will be the favorite again in the next race in Italy, as Monza is a high speed track with long straights, demanding powerful engines. Another predictable race maybe it's getting a bit boring Hamilton winning all the time his car is unbeatable but nobody can deny as he has a profound talent for this sport.
Congratulations! to Mercedes-AMG, especially to Lewis Hamilton. The rest could not do more, Niko Rosberg who managed to climb well despite a horrible start. Bravo Romain Grosjean, first podium place of the season and deserved, and for Pastor Maldonado to complete the picture. For Red Bull Daniil Kvyat did a good race good overtaking Too bad for Sebastian Vettel that despite the difficult qualifying was going to take home yet another podium of the season, he had a great misfortune, courageous and daring, but Spa there are many fast corners resting on the right rear (Blanchimont and Pouhon to name 2) and almost 30 laps on a track of 7 km. Williams destroyed the race Valtteri Bottas, unforgivable mistake although Williams never proved as competitive in the 2015 Formula 1 season.
The Pirelli sooner or later will kill someone, perhaps a change of supplier would be taken into account.
