2015 F1 Season, Week 18
The interesting thing about this race was how relatively uninteresting it was. Usually, Brazil has rain that fucks up everything. In this race, the first six spots sorted themselves out by the third corner and pretty much stayed that way after that, even through all of the pit rotations. Although there was some diceyness further back in the field (Verstappen was a crazy person, for example) and after the race, Massa got jobbed by a tire blanket, awarding a point to Pastor Maldonado.
