I'm just watching the BBC re-reun on iPlayer and it always strikes me that we used to have a best commentator option. My vote for this category has to be Edwards: this man knows how to pronounce all the foreign names correctly which annoy me when others get it wrong.

His pronunciation of Esteban annoys me. I don't know or care if it's right or wrong, just say it normally.
 
Best Driver: Sutil
Worst Driver: Grosjean
Best Rookie (Gutierrez, Bottas, Van Der Garde , Bianchi, Chilton):
Best Team: Mercedes
Worst Team: Ferrari were back to 2012 slow...

Best Overtake: Perez on Button
Funniest-moment: N/A
Most Surprising Result: Alonso down the field
Least Surprising Result: di Resta and Vettel get saved by SC and get all the luck as usual

Special Mention to: Perez, Raikkonen deserves a penalty for what he did
Race Rating: 2/10
 
Best Driver: Rosberg. Sutil a very close second.
Worst Driver: Grosjean.
Best Rookie: Bottas / Van der Garde equally. VDG's qualifying was superb but what Bottas did during the race was impressive.
Best Team: Mercedes. Red Bull a very close second.
Worst Team: Marussia.

Best Overtake: Three equal. Di Resta > Massa / Sutil > Button / Sutil > Alonso. Please note that none involve Perez, who's moves entirely relied upon being seen by the target/victim. I'd felt all along was going to take himself out (and almost certainly someone else).
Funniest-moment: Two involve Perez. 1) Button's overtake prevented him pitting. 2) Räikkönen anticipating his next lunge and proving that there was no gap to go into.
Most Surprising Result: Red Flag. It was the first in an awful long time.
Least Surprising Result: Mercedes Pole.

Special Mention to: Force India.
Race Rating: 6.11.
