Would have been 4 but for the race ending at the second corner on the first lap, then there might have been a good fight between Button and Alonso ; that was spoilt by an unusually long pit stop for Ferrari. This could then have turned into a good scrap between Alonso and Ricciardo but with no variety in the corners there was not a single chance of an overtaking move.
There was for a short while the possibility of there not being a Mercedes 1-2 but it was quickly apparent that Rosberg had the speed and the tyres to make it to second.
The circuit is awful, there isn't even anything worthwhile looking at. The only upside was that it looked as though there was a good sized crowd who looked enthusiastic.
As a final moan Raikonnen was nearly pushed off the circuit on the first lap just as he was in a good position to fight for a higher place after a good qualifying show, having to lift ruined his race.
