    Yup.

    Stepping into a full race in F1 with very little time for preparation...

    ...that's impressive.

    I loved his comment on the radio after the finish:

    "My shoulders are dead".

    Certainly a terrific drive. Hope it gets him a seat for next year (he will
    have to work on building up his shoulders over the winter though :-) )

    Agree, jumping into a car with only one practice session and scoring a point is very impressive.

    Tip of the hat to Sainz and Max.

    Lots of good drives under different criteria. But anybody scoring points
    in their first drive deserves a vote.

    I'm keeping quiet - having watched DeVries in other categories where he's known for 'elbows out
    always on the verge of dirty driving'. I don't like to see that sort of driving being rewarded with
    a drive (and possibly a seat) in F1.

    That said he drove cleanly and well at Monza.

    Where the fuck have you been?
    All drivers at the front of the grid,
    in all major motorsports,
    are there because they are dirty.

    Hmmmm - wasn’t he reprimanded by the stewards for “erratic driving”?

    For braking heavily behind the SC; the stewards found mitigating factors:

    The mitigating factors (read excuses) resulted in a reprimand rather than a higher penalty. So,
    regardless, he (the driver) was still judged to be at fault.
