    Nicely done sportydan. It will be interesting to see how this all peices together as we get further into the year. Hamilton's inconsistancy is shown pretty clearly in how he is the tie leader of both the best and worst driver catagory.

    So from what Forza has posted, its fair to say there is unequal opportunities in Red Bull, although i cant really blame them at this stage.

    Best Driver: obviously Jenson, that was an incredible result
    Worst Driver: Lewis had a shocker and no-one else did
    Best Rookie: Petrov gets an honourable mention but Kobayashi (if he counts)
    Best Team: Renault
    Worst Team: Virgin
    Best Overtake:Schumi's double on Massa and Kamui
    Funniest-moment: Jenson screaming out after contact with Lewis
    Most Surprising Result: Vettel making a mistake (not that anyone else wouldn't have done the same)
    Least Surprising Result: Red Bull on the podium
    Special Mention to: Schumacher, if only his car was better, he is still master of the wet
    Race Rating: 10/10

    Best BBC commentator/presenter: Both did a great job on the monster rain break
    Worst BBC commentator/presenter: EJ, although he probably wangled some good interviews

    He voted for Button, Hamilton and Virgin anyway. Its only an issue if large numbers of people vote with something different.

    I dunno, the cause of 'wing-gate' was that Webber didn't want the new wing but it was put on anyway, when BOTH wings got damaged they could only fix one of them, so they gave it to the driver that had wanted it originally, Vettel, giving Webber to the excuse to go looking for a reporter so he could play his media mind games, as usual. Maybe to stop all that BS happening again it's possible they gave them the choice of which wing to use
