redfiona99Not saying it tells you how *thrilling* the Spanish Grand Prix was that even the Wikipedia page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024_Spanish_Grand_Prix) doesn't give a summary of the race, but it was very much "Verstappen gets past Norris and then steams off into the distance".
The most important thing was probably that this was the last of Verstappen's wins for a long time. Which we are all grateful for. Except the Red Bull fans, who are excused, because we have all suffered from loving a sports team.
At the time, people were very much "oh well, there's someone else that can occasionally outqualify Verstappen but just gets breezed past in the race" as happened with Leclerc the year before.
Little did we know ...
