Best Driver: Alonso's was about the most interesting performance but in a cloying, oppressive race he didn't quite sparkle enough, so - Vettel. He didn't do much but then he didn't have to. Worst Driver: Maldonado. Couldn't even beat Schumacher. Best Rookie: di Resta. Best Team: Red Bull. Worst Team: Hispania. Best Overtake: Button on Rosberg - courageous and he cut it really close. If he'd clipped the Mercedes he'd be donut of the day. Funniest-moment: "I can't drive any slower." - Why, exactly? And, if you don't, you do realise you're going to waste your tyres, don't you?
