Best Driver: Lewis Hamilton or Jaime Alguersuari or Heikki Kovalainen Worst Driver: Vitaly Petrov - was a difficult one as everyone drive well, but Vitaly enters Schumachers race so it has to go to him Best Rookie: Daniel Ricciardo - beat Luizzi a few times now and he's barely had half a season. Correct me if I'm wrong, but he was the only driver on the grid that didn't get to drive in a dry practice season? Best Team: Toro Rosso - only 3 points adrift of Sauber with that brilliant drive from Jaime Worst Team: Renault - where have they disappeared to? Best Overtake: The Hamilton/Webber battle through the twisty part of the track. I think they were the only overtakes on that part of the track Funniest Moment: David Croft in FP1/2 - "just pick it up, you don't have to kick it. I mean your not Ji Sung Park are you?!?'
Sorry for double post, sodding iPods!! Most Surprising Result: di Resta - complained of understate early on was one of the first to pit, and still brought home a point. Least Surprising Result: Massa beaten by Alonso, despite qualifying ahead of him Special Mention to: Team Lotus - great job today, can't wait to see them repeat that performance. So good to see one of the newer teams bothering to get on to the back of the mid field and worry them Race Rating: 7/10
Best Driver: Sebastian Vettel Worst Driver: Vitaly Petrov Best Rookie: Paul Di Resta Best Team: Toro Rosso Worst Team: Sauber Best Overtake: Felipe Massa double overtake Funniest-moment: Fernando 'Give Up' Most Surprising Result: Jaime Alguersuari Least Surprising Result: Felipe Massa Special Mention to: Heikki Kovalainen, Lewis Hamilton Race Rating: 9/10
Best Driver: = Vettel/Hamilton. Vettel did exactly what he needed to do; and Hamilton's persistent and determined defence over many laps and under immense pressure from Webber, was sublime. Worst Driver: Senna/Petrov/D'Ambrosio Best Rookie: Ricciardo Best Team: Red Bull/Toro Rosso Worst Team: Sauber Best Overtake: Several of Hamilton's retakes whilst defending against Webber. Also Button on Rosberg from the pit lane exit, which was superbly anticipated! Funniest-moment: Coulthard having a Murray moment watching a replay. Most Surprising Result: Ferrari not ordering Massa aside for Alonso. Least Surprising Result: Red Bull World Constructors' Champions, 2011. Special Mention to: Kovalainen; di Resta; Team Lotus; Schumacher (oops; wrong place - right time); Petrov: (make it look less deliberate next time ) Race Rating: 7.4/10
