    Best Driver: Nico Rosberg - All the issues with his car and he held on for 2nd, great drive by an excellent driver
    Worst Driver: Max Chilton - Didn't even have the balls to admit to his error, what a tosser
    Best Rookie (Magnussen, Kvyat, Ericsson): Magnusson was the least awful
    Best Team: Red Bull - Finally broke the Merc stranglehold
    Worst Team: Williams - Waited too long to get Massa past Bottas, cocked up both strategies and ended nowhere

    Best Overtake: Ricciardo on Perez, a race winning overtake
    Funniest-moment: Nothing funny today, just good.
    Most Surprising Result: Mercedes not winning
    Least Surprising Result: Ricciardo best of the non-mercs (hey, it's become a regular thing)

    Special Mention to: Daniel Ricciardo, winning a race is a great achievment, to do it in this season of Merc dominance against a 4 time world champion teammate must be sweeter
    Race Rating: 8/10

    Best Driver: Two!: Ricciardo and Rosberg.
    Worst Driver: Although quick at times, Raikkonen was inconsistent. Actually, he was a bit tatty all weekend.
    Best Rookie: Magnussen.
    Best Team: Red Bull.
    Worst Team: Marrussia.

    Best Overtake: Ricciardo on Perez. Although DRS played its part, it was a race-winning move and had been 'set-up' several corners in advance in order to be in the correct position out of the hairpin.
    Funniest-moment: …
    Most Surprising Result: Red Bull win. I feel like adding that I am NOT surprised this went to Ricciardo rather than Vettel!
    Least Surprising Result: Rosberg podium was one of the few reasonable predictions to come true!

    Special Mention to: My next-door neighbour.
    Race Rating: 9.3/10

    With fear of being labeled a Hamelot (as usual), I question why Hamilton would figure in your worst. I don't recall him having a bad race from a driving point of view.

    Best Driver: Ricciardo
    Worst Driver: Chilton Refused to take the blame, despite the replays clearly showing he wasn't in control when he reached the apex. At least the media will stop using his finishing record to defend him now.
    Best Rookie (Magnussen, Kvyat, Ericsson): Magnussen
    Best Team: Force India
    Worst Team: Ferrari

    Best Overtake: Ricciardo on Perez Realised it was now or never and had the judgement and the balls to pull it off, Massa take note...
    Funniest-moment: None
    Most Surprising Result: Mercedes beaten
    Least Surprising Result: Ferrari nowhere

    Special Mention to: My two mates who I watched the race with for putting up with me for the whole two hours, I was an absolute wreck by the end!
    Race Rating: 10/10 Had everything, 2013 is now a distant memory.

    I just feel with the car under him, if he had not have tagged Nico at the last chicane, he might have been in the mix, even without Mgu-k.

    Best Driver: Rosberg Thought he was profiting from Hamiltons errors for much of the weekend, but a steller drive at the end in his ailing car.

    There wasn't any contact there. His brakes were already on the way out. You could black dust/smoke coming from his rear wheels.

    This. He has taken a slating on here and I'm really not sure what he is supposed to have done that was that wrong. He perhaps wasn't his best in quali but never stopped fighting in the race and had Rosberg under pressure pretty much the whole time, forcing him into two major errors. He was unlucky not to profit from those, and to have his race ended by mechanical failure. Without failing machinery this season he would be comfortably leading the championship. As it is he has it all to do again.

    Not sure if you have posted this in the right thread?

    He was Out qualified by his team mate and being led by his team mate at the point of retirement which means he would get a lower score than Rosberg. Rosberg's score will be inflated because he limped round and got a result against expectation, something we were unable to see from Lewis, I don't view that as a slating.
