Checo looked great. He was always pretty aggressive, but it was usually poorly timed so he ended up with incidents. At least in this one race, he seemed to have better timing. Hoping to see that keep up for him.
Once he got to 2nd, he just put on cruise control. You could tell he was just watching Sainz' speed and matching it, making sure not to wear out his soft tires too soon, but also not let Sainz catch up.
Overall though, that was a pretty boring race, even in the mid-field. I still don't know how max fans get excited to watch races...
