    Best Driver: Perez
    Worst Driver: I could so easily troll and say Hamilton, but I'm going to say Verstappen, he looked reckless all day and I actually called him crashing into Grosjean
    Best Rookie (Nasr, Verstappen, Sainz): Sainz, points from an unfair dsq in quali in that car was great stuff <ok>
    Best Team: Mclaren? They've gained a lot, albeit track specific most likely.
    Worst Team: Williams, what the hell were they doing this weekend?

    Best Overtake: There were any?
    Funniest-moment: Have a guess ;)
    Most Surprising Result: Rosberg wins from starting behind Hamilton
    Least Surprising Result: Mercedes win

    Special Mention to: Alonso again loses out on points because of the car. Maldonado
    Race Rating: 3/10

    Best Driver: Rosberg, he was the best 1 stopping driver around that's for sure...
    Worst Driver: cant say as I might be told to 'get a life' again...
    Best Rookie (Nasr, Verstappen, Sainz): None of them.
    Best Team: Red Bull, strangely enough that or McLaren
    Worst Team: Mercedes strategists

    Best Overtake: Daniel on Kimi
    Funniest-moment: Kimi swearing on the radio with blue flags
    Most Surprising Result: Lewis not winning with that gap
    Least Surprising Result: Monaco still being a **** circuit for actual racing

    Special Mention to: Lauda, Lowe and Toto for keeping the title fight alive for that little bit longer
    Race Rating: 2/10 would have been 0 until the last 10 laps it was that ****e.

    Best Driver: hmm, Monaco, hmm
    Worst Driver: Verstappen, could've been DoD,
    Best Rookie (Nasr, Verstappen, Sainz): Sainz did well
    Best Team: Mercedes up until the SC. I guess RBR were the biggest surprise, and respect between their drivers (how long will that last)
    Worst Team: The Stewards: awarding a penalty for an over-take, and then ignoring a blatant punt at the same place. I guess image is everything and seeing bits of a wing on the track swayed it. Ridiculous.
    Best Overtake: I thought Alonso's on Hulk was a good one, stewards disagreed.
    Funniest-moment: The post race tears of the Hamelots
    Most Surprising Result: that it was not a Merc 1-2
    Least Surprising Result: Lewis making a bad call and Mercedes being blamed for it.

    Special Mention to: Kvyat, Ricc, Perez, Button, + a few others
    Race Rating: there was a race?

    Best Driver: Perez for me
    Worst Driver: What was Vestappen thinking?
    Best Rookie (Nasr, Verstappen, Sainz): Sainz
    Best Team: Red Bull
    Worst Team: Mercedes, hero to zero's

    Best Overtake: Any that happened
    Funniest-moment: that this thing is called a race?
    Most Surprising Result: Button
    Least Surprising Result: Mercedes making a bad call and Lewis being blamed for it.

    Special Mention to: Hamilton - Dignified, Both Red Bulls for a strong race, Vettel for hanging in there, probably a few others.
    Race Rating: 2/10 - As always, it's not a race, it's a extended Saturday.

    Best Driver: Perez, Again showed that Hulk is not all that he is said to be.
    Worst Driver: Verstappen. Started strong on Thursday but seemed to let that get to his head.
    Best Rookie (Nasr, Verstappen, Sainz): Sainz, excellent race from the pit lane, just next time remember to turn into the weighbridge?
    Best Team: So nearly Mercedes, RBR showed that they do have a decent car and a crap engine.
    Worst Team: Williams. Poor all weekend. They should now have a car that does not suffer such weaknesses if they really want to get back to the top.

    Best Overtake: Any that happened
    Funniest-moment: Verstappen telling the world how he would sneakily get past Grosjean using Kimi as a cloak, Grosjean schooling him when he let Kimi past, then Verstappen drives into him. Genius.
    Most Surprising Result: Penalty for Alonso, none of Ricciardo. I'm with Miggins on this one, Ricciardo's was definitely more of a speculative punt, Alonso was at least pretty much alongside Hulk when he nerfed him.
    Least Surprising Result: Post Hamilton fallout fun on the fourm.

    Special Mention to: Hamilton, mature reaction to a bitter disappointment when most would have expected him to throw his toys out of the pram.
    Race Rating: 2/10. Was a procession, last 10 laps was still a procession, just in a different order.

    Best Driver: I'm going to go with Vettel, showed some real brains and muscle out there. Rosberg was lucky and Hamilton was acting in a unprofessional spoilt brat manner.
    Worst Driver: Ericsson, would rather see VDG in that car now.
    Best Rookie (Nasr, Verstappen, Sainz): both STR drivers looked good, Verstappen showed some inventiveness where as sainz managed to get a point from the pit lane on a track with no overtaking. Both should be in the main team.
    Best Team: I'll let Red bull have it. They seized there only opportunity of getting good points.
    Worst Team: Williams, did they even turn up?

    Best Overtake: Verstappen following Kimi.
    Funniest-moment: Kimi calling Danny not very nice while he called a back marker a ****ing idiot.
    Most Surprising Result: Rosberg getting a win
    Least Surprising Result: Hamilton tantrums

    Special Mention to: Grosjean, did well to block Max then got punted off.
    Race Rating: 7/10 not bad actually.

    Best Driver: Perez
    Worst Driver: Nico - sounds mad but screwed up quali, couldn't clear the traffic and settled for 2nd pretty much straight away.
    Best Rookie (Nasr, Verstappen, Sainz):
    Best Team: Red Bull
    Worst Team: Williams on pace, Merc on strategy and the stewards.

    Best Overtake: don't recall any
    Funniest-moment: Kimi's radio
    Most Surprising Result: McLaren in the points
    Least Surprising Result: McLaren retirement

    Special Mention to: Lewis for losing a race that was in the bag, JB for a solid result and Alonso for his patience.

    Best Driver: Hamilton drove impeccably all weekend.
    Worst Driver: Verstappen needs to be grounded.
    Best Rookie: Sainz You know that 10th place Verstappen was so desperate for? Well, Sainz got it. From the pit lane.
    Best Team: Force India - surprisingly fast but forgotten in all the drama
    Worst Team: Mercedes, for shafting their best driver

    Best Overtake: Actually, Grosjean's block on cocky Verstappen was the move of the race for me.
    Funniest-moment: See above
    Most Surprising Result: PĂ©rez, Button, Nasr, Sainz
    Least Surprising Result: Maldonado and Alonso DNFs

    Special Mention to: Lewis, robbed
    Race Rating: 7/10 I hated the way it ended but as Monaco Grands Prix go, it was entertaining.

    Best Driver: Perez
    Worst Driver: Nico - agree with other comments that he too easily settled into second.
    Best Rookie (Nasr, Verstappen, Sainz): Sainz, but Verstappen was good up until the crash.
    Best Team: Red Bull
    Worst Team: Williams

    Best Overtake: I liked Verstappen using Vettel to overtake, clever.
    Funniest-moment: Kimi on the radio
    Most Surprising Result: Mercedes win
    Least Surprising Result: Marussia at the back

    Special Mention to: Verstappen for being the only real source of entertainment in this race.

    Best driver Kyvatt
    Worst driver Hulkenberg
    Best rookie Verstappen despite the mistake.
    Best Team Red Bull/ Force India
    Worst team Mercedes

    Best overtake There were only 2 and one got a penalty
    Funniest moment There wasn't one
    Most surprising result McLaren Honda improving yet again
    Least surprising result Mercedes winning another procession, Lewis blaming everyone else

    Special mention to Daniel Ricciardo who showed what true sportsman ship is
    Rating The only difference between the Monaco Grand Prix and a Funeral Procession is that in a funeral procession the cars have their lights on. Otherwise it's follow the leader with no overtaking.
