Whilst the race was very exciting and had a fairy tale ending for me it is all rather spoilt by the artificiality. It seems crazy that there was a full safety car for the first incident, the car was in a safe place, I can perhaps see why the pit lane was closed and believe that this has happened before without a full SC.
Strolls podium is a travesty, he got a 100% free pit stop, if he'd had to pit as normal he would've wound up last and been fairly beaten by his team-mate and Norris would've got a deserved podium.
Still an exciting spectacle, wonderful for Gasly, Alpha Tauri and McLaren and gave LH a great opportunity to have a play.
