I for one found the race thrilling; now I understand that watching and driving is a completely different experience; so I get why some or even most drivers have a problem with deployment and having to brake in non natural places to recharge;
But for those watching, isn't overtakes exactly what people wanted to see?

Was interesting enough the first 15 laps, ngl. Altough it's always in the back of my head that the only reason the overtakes happened at all is because of a bunch of gimmicks. The remaining 3/4 of the race was a real snooze fest, altough that was mainly due to the return of Ferrari Stategy
Still, not going to base any opinions off of a single race. And neither is F1. They claim they have some stuff they can change fairly quickly if they see the need for it after 3 races. I'm guessing they're going to turn up the turbo boost and rein in the electric motor output, to a 70-30 ratio rather than the 60-40 they have now, which should help keep the battery topped up without coasting everywhere
