    Here you go-as you likely suspected-
    "Definition. A Formula 1 speed trap is a device used on Formula 1 tracks to record the speed of cars as they pass by. Each Formula 1 track is equipped with these mechanisms that pinpoint the speed of these lightning-fast cars as they lap around the tracks."

    That's interesting.  I had just assumed it was a comment on a fairly sharp turn coming up after a long straightaway.  As in "better slow your roll, aholes!"

    The race had quite a dull finish due to a restart on lap 56 of 58 with subsequent crash and red flag on lap 57.  Ended with a formality lap behind the safety car for the final lap. 
    BTW- order of podium-
    Max Verstappen then Lewis Hamilton and third once again, Fernando Alonso.
