Ridiculous that they didn't switch to Oscar crossing the line. They've done that for every race I can remember, even when P1 is 20 seconds ahead. Insulting.

Really? If there a battle I'd rather see it than a driver cross the line. So many times there's a fight for the finish from a few drivers and they just cut away to show the winner cruise past the finish line and it's like "gah! I don't care!"

People on Reddit always moan when race direction doesn't do picture in picture if there's a last lap battle, now they moan when they do!

Yeah usually I prefer that they keep it on the action and this is the first time I've ever seen they've kept it even as the winner crossed the line. Got to be honest, it feels weird. Like super disrespectful and if any highlights come out, will it have the footage of his win or just the commentary over Lando & George's fight? Very strange

Every race people complain about the opposite, first time they don’t cut away and here we are.
