Let’s all hope that the Azerbaijan GP offers more excitement than Bahrain. It should be a great opportunity to see Ferrari make a mess of team orders again but, for the sake of the championship, let’s hope the team can find the speed to beat Mercedes on what is always a dramatic race.

Lewis Hamilton was handed victory in a madcap finish to a chaotic, incident-strewn Azerbaijan Grand Prix during which both Red Bulls sensationally collided with each other.
Hamilton's team-mate Valtteri Bottas was on course to win after Mercedes took advantage of a late safety car to jump long-time leader Sebastian Vettel's Ferrari.

But, after Vettel had thrown away second place with a mistake at the restart, Bottas suffered a puncture on the next lap.

His two rivals out of the way, Hamilton was given victory and the championship lead on a plate after looking set to finish third.
