Finn was pleased with how it played his race because there is not even close to the fight for the podium.

"I started fourth, finished in second place. I think it's not bad either for me or for the team. It was not a victory, but I had a good race and especially the second stint was good. We knew the race pace will be good and we believed that we can achieve such a result. Now we have to improve the pace in qualifying, "said Bottas.

Vettel ignored the order telling his team that Leclerc must catch up if he wanted to pass. The team eventually did the move in the pit stop phase before the German retired with an engine failure.

It was deemed a dangerous re-entry and as stewards handed down the penalty Vettel stayed in front defending the lead. “I had nowhere to go. Seriously, I had nowhere to go,” fumed Vettel over team radio when told of the penalty. “They are stealing the race from us. “No, no, no, no, no, no … Seriously, you need to be an absolute blind man to let him pass and not control your car – where am I supposed to go? This is a wrong world, this is not fair.” Vettel made his point again after the race, switching the No.1 winners sign from Hamilton’s car to his own vacant spot.
