Best Driver: Ricciardo Worst Driver: Tough one... Gutierrez is just a Turkey, Perez ruined Saubers potentially promising race but Raikkonen was bloody awful and nowhere again, hard to say if his car was damaged by Perez but i assume not. Perez though i think just takes it, purely because he cost others dearly. Best Rookie (Magnussen, Kvyat, Ericsson): KMag. Best Team: Mercedes. Worst Team: Force India. Best Overtake: Take your pick from Ricciardo's. Funniest-moment: Button being angry and sarcastic over the radio all weekend. Maldonado racking up penalties left, right and center during the race but still getting a point. Most Surprising Result: Maldonado having a pretty good race. Least Surprising Result: Mercedes 1-2. Special Mention to: Lotus, unlucky not to score more points. Maldonado for a good weekend, Button, some great defence on track and brilliant sarcasm over the Radio, Sutil for a great Quali. Race Rating: 7/10

Best Driver: Ricciardo for me too, he fast becoming one of my fav. drivers, smiling assasin! Worst Driver: Gonna give Kimi the benefit of the doubt and assume the quite hefty bump from Perez messed up his car, with that in mind, worst driver of the day for attemping a silly move so early in the race and ruining his and 2 other drivers race is Perez! Best Rookie (Magnussen, Kvyat, Ericsson): Magnussen Best Team: Mercedes. Worst Team: Force India Best Overtake: Ricciardo made a few, Jev's was maybe 1% the other side of illegal? Hamilton on Rosberg was pretty special too! Funniest-moment: Gotta agree, loved JBs sarcasim, never been a "fan" of Button but I'd be gutted if he left F1! Most Surprising Result: Sauber into Q3, Lotus having a decent race.. Least Surprising Result: Mercedes 1-2 Special Mention to: No idea who needs one... apart Perez and maybe Esteban, everyone else, give yourself a pat on the back! Race Rating: 6/10, wierd race, I was excited whilst at the same time feeling a bit Meh about it at times, for that I blame the Crofty Ones commentary!

Best Driver: I know it's the Perth Poacher but I'll give it to Vergne and Maldonado for the sheer enjoyment they provided Worst Driver: Kimi was awful but Pérez was worse Best Rookie: Magnussen Best Team: Lotus - "I want you back, I want you back, I said I want you back for goo-ooood" Worst Team: Ferrari - Alonso flatters them Best Overtake: Vergne on Grosjean Funniest-moment: Miss America posing in the pit lane was a bit surreal Most Surprising Result: Maldo in the points Least Surprising Result: Mercedes one-two Special Mention to: Lewis and Ricciardo were pretty handy Race Rating: 5/10 for the first half; 10/10 for the second = 7.5/10 Best Commentator/Presenter: I'm going negative.

Best Driver: Jointly, Ricciardo/Hamilton. RIC was brilliant and showed what that car can do. Why HAM? – Well, what more could he do! He also pulled off the most sublime overtake. Worst Driver: Raikkonen has been poor all season. He was also poor last season. But even with such a relatively low standard, this was not one of his better races. Best Rookie: Magnussen. Best Team: Mercedes. Worst Team: Force India. Best Overtake: Hamilton on Rosberg. Not only the most technically difficult mnoeuvre of the race but also the most critical in terms of its result. (See race thread). Funniest-moment: Although I didn't hear it, I understand Button caused some amusement on the radio… Most Surprising Result: No real surprises this time. Least Surprising Result: Reduced grid? Existing teams provided with no incentive for change? Come on Bernie: you know you can sort this out. Time to give something back to the sport. In the past you've told the teams how it is and chosen whose bread to butter. Now just tell them things are going to be different. Dictate it for you have no peers and the big teams who you like to party with have, by your own hand, have little choice to go elsewhere! Special Mention to: Bernie (as above). And jointly, Marussia and Caterham. And all of their (ex)employees and their families. Race Rating: 7.2/10 Best Commentator/Presenter

Best Driver: Ricciardo just edges it for me over Hamilton, based on their quali performances. Both excellent in the race Worst Driver: Perez - ridiculous move, Kimi escapes this dubious honour as I doubt the hit he received helped his handling.
