Yep, not a good day for Mercedes but the winning run couldn't last forever.
Excellent drives from both MV and SV. Is that the first win for a Honda powered car since their return to F1?

The finishing positions of Kvyat and Stroll shows how much a wet race is a leveller.
And even with rain, the Williams finished in the last two finishing spots.

Hamilton promoted to 9th and Kubica to 10th (first point for Williams) after both Alfa drivers are penalised by 30 seconds.

2nd win for Honda, MV won in Austria. Williams also managed to not finish last as the Alfas were penalised (see above)

What a bad day at the office for MB and their drivers!

Lewis should not have driven given he was ill but insisted on continuing. I feel he did a brilliant job, as usual, given the conditions. Was he right to pit when he lost his front wing? No!! Because the pit crew were not ready. He should have gone around again and not crossed across the grass. Yes we would have lost time but at least the crew would have been ready.

Used to have a C63...
You do have to give it to Sky for their coverage though, it is excellent

For some reason, our Virgin package has been showing highlights on Sky One this year! Quite like Sky coverage, but also lime DC and Webbs.

They did screen the first couple of races on Sky 1 as well

I'm a motor sport fan, and I like watching F1. For the quality of the coverage you cannot beat Sky F1. I've watch this channel over the means before and the lack of quality is pretty bad.
