C'est le French Grand Prix! And like everything French, the weekend was filled with tradition and style. We saw overtakes and undercuts.  We saw teams under strategic pressure and tyres with just the right amount of pressure. All wrapped up in a red and blue striped box box (and the occasional gorilla). O là là! Let's break it down.
