Magic Monza Awards

[JonnyBaws]

Best Driver: Hamilton with Perez a close second, stand by my comments in the GP thread that due to poor qualifying performance he "lucked" into his race startegy!
Worst Driver: Not sure anyone had a real mare but you could give it to either of the Redbull drivers, Vettel for being naughty and Webber for being just plain slow!
Best Rookie(Grosjean,Pic,Ricciardo,Vergne): Grosjean, by his absence found out the other rookies just aren't that good, maybe harsh on the others given their cars are crap but, apart from the issues Grosjean has with running into people, he's a damn finer racer!
Best Team: McLaren, 3 wins on the bounce, if not for a puncture at the German GP, could have seen Hamilton take that race too (he proved he had the pace by unlapping himself!)
Worst Team: With two DNFs and their resources, gotta give it to RedBull
Best Overtake: Too many to mention but Perez move into Parabolica against Massa and again his move against Alonso into the Ascari chicane.
Funniest-moment: None that I can think!
Most Surprising Result: Maldonado not using more than one front wing!
Least Surprising Result: Ferrari getting a favorable decision at home ;-) (but in all fairness, it was the right call the more I look at the incident)
Special Mention to: Massa, fighting for a contract but he's down well lately!
Race Rating: 8.12/10.
Best Commentator/Presenter overall: Brundle or Coulthard, Corft sucks!

Best Driver: Hamilton. Want to say Perez but I can't see what else Hamilton could have done this weekend. P1 in quali and fully controlled the race whilst managing his tyres
Worst Driver: Webber - seemed off the boil
Best Rookie(Grosjean,Pic,Ricciardo,Vergne): Ricciardo - good race, cruel luck
Best Team: McLaren - Buttons dnf was a random, other than that was a good weekend
Worst Team: Red Bull, despite Ferrari struggling with what they kept telling us was by far the fastest car this weekend.
Best Overtake: Perez on Kimi
Funniest-moment: Smedley with his dodgy team orders, its allowed now boys.
Most Surprising Result: Perez p2, although I'm surprised Hamilton had it so easy, he must have been really on it.
Least Surprising Result: The unsporting tifosi - Just pipping Vettel's penalty
Special Mention to: Perez and Massa
Race Rating: 8.9/10 - Pretty much always something going on
Best Commentator/Presenter overall: Saw it on sky so Brundle

Sadly I have to agree with this.

Sad if that's the case on the chanting Cosi.

It's hard to belive it's the 21st century sometimes... That has to be stamped out of the sport.

I have to agree it is unacceptable, but I cannot understand why there is so much comotion for one man.
This should have been stopped ages ago, by the likes of Bernie and co.
And if Lewis was bothered, he would have filed up a case of some sort against the Monza Gp hosts.

Also Cosi, I meant Vettel on Alonso was funny, not in the sense that I would laugh at it, but because it was the same scenario last year, on the same turn with the same drivers, This time a driver was punished.

Thank you, Dan.

* Best Driver: Hamilton/Perez. Hamilton faultless; very quick when it really counted and then perfect in 'race-management mode'. Perez for a storming drive from12th, to beat Alonso fair and square and claim a superb 2nd place.
* Worst Driver:
* Best Rookie: Pic
* Best Team: McLaren
* Worst Team: Red Bull
* Best Overtake: Perez on Räikkönen
* Funniest-moment: None. I should like to take this opportunity to say that I find it perplexing that people find the demise of their hero's rivals 'funny'…
* Most Surprising Result: Button retirement
* Least Surprising Result: Vettel penalty: he should have known better than to do it on a Ferrari in Monza.
* Special Mention to: Tifosi for doing it and Hamilton for putting up with the most disgraceful racism. (Yes, there were lots and lots of so-called 'monkey noises'. Utterly, utterly disgraceful)
* Race Rating: 8.23/10
* Best Commentator/Presenter overall: Ben Edwards has no opposition in Sky's sickening 70s DJ.

This for me. Agree about Edward everyday over "Crofty" Seriously? I cringed when Brundle called him that. Murray Walker would never have it if he was called "Muzza" because he was good enough as he is, just like Ben Edwards...or should that be Benzo? No - Edwards is the consummate professional who only has a great deal of knowledge and passion for his duties as THE voice of F1 and faraway from the cheesy sideshow of nicknames and irritants that fill a Sky Sports commentary box whether it's f1 or any other sport.
