    alonso is the deserved winner.yes he got some luck,but he was there to make the most of it.
    most exciting driver was lewis without a doubt,he just about made the best overtake of the race also.jensons is a close second.

    Not doing mine yet until I've had a think but - WTF was that?! The director was completely appalling. Worse than any Middle-eastern or Asian director. Utterly rubbish.

    Best Driver: Alonso
    Worst Driver: Maldonado
    Best Rookie: Ricciardo, well done for finishing his 1st race, especially after what must have been some very frustrating practice sessions
    Best Team: Ferrari
    Worst Team: Lotus
    Best Overtake: JB on Massa, special mention to the dual between kobi and Maldonado though.
    Funniest-moment: Watching Horner squirm after ordering Webber not to pass Vettel.
    Most Surprising Result: Alguersuari coming from near the back into the points, again!
    Least Surprising Result: Both Bulls on the podium
    Special Mention to: Heidfeld, Jaime, Perez, all good races.
    Race Rating: 8/10


    Best BBC commentator/presenter: I think Jake did a good job today
    Worst BBC commentator/presenter: Hmm not sure. Brundle and DC made some silly mistakes today. Plus I hate that 'look but never stare' thing, it sounds like a really poor lyric.
    Best Commentary moment: DC, not at exact quote but it was something like 'what race driver can't tell right from left?'
    Overall BBC coverage rating: 8/10

    I would also like to point out that the race feed was very poor at the end when they couldn't decide which battle to show, very poor from FOM.
