1-Best Driver -> Felipe Massa
2-Best Team -> Ferrari
3-Best overtaking -> Kazuki Nakaboom on Barrichello
4-Best Moment -> Start
5-Worst driver & worst team -> Sutil and Honda
6-Best Rookie -> Glock
7-The most surprising moment -> Kimi's engine blow up

8-General Comment - Kimi is screwed with this engine failure because he will have the same engine for the next 2 races, Spa and Monza. The toughest races for the engine.

1-Best Driver
Felipe Massa. He dominated
2-Best Team
Toro Rosso for their massive improvements
3-Best Overtaking
Nakajima on Barrichello. It was actually superb. Not that his undertake on Alonso's gearbox was superb, but that wasn't 100% his fault either.
4-Best Moment
The moment an hour and a bit after the race conclusion, when it was confirmed that Massa keeps his victory/Nakajima's overtake. It made me smile/Sutil crashing. It made me smile.
5-Worst Driver & Worst Team
DC. Ridiculous move on Sutil. He picked the right time to retire.
Hmm, which team? Ferrari perhaps for their operational blunders?

6-Best Rookie
Definately not Piquet. He was an accident waiting to happen, and so it transpired. So was Bourdais. And so it transpired. I vote Glock of the semis. He made that 1 stopper work tremendously well.
7-The most surprising moment
Not one SC period. A boring race.

8-General Comment
4 out of ten. Slightly worse than Turkey, about equal to Malaysia, and only a bit more exciting. i.e. not very.
Don't anyone say Renault for the worst team. Ok, Piquet's blunders might add towards that, but Alonso's retirement was 0% Alonso's fault. Glock and Vettel were impressive. Nakajima was perhaps a bit naive in not anticipating the concertina into that chicane, but I don't really blame him either. Not as dumb as DC's "move" on Sutil.
Massa seriously deserved the win, kicked Kimi's a$$ good. Now is the time Ferrari should start favouring Massa.
I think the circuit is sublime, at least in terms of how it looks from cameras and from the onboard. But there was no overtaking. 2 overtakes, in fact!! That is equal to Spain.. :<>:
Stewardship was a bit odd, as surely that should have been investigated during the race? I'm glad they saw sense though, it was no worse than Alonso's misdemeanours. Oh well Hamilton fanboys, grab a tissue, there's always Spa :p ..or not.

Finally, regards to the refuelling man..
No, I'm not calmer. Just more jaded.

1-Best Driver: Sebastian Vettel/Massa
2-Best Team: Scuderia Toro Rosso
3-Best overtaking: Nakajima on Rubinho
4-Best Moment: None
5-Worst driver & worst team: Sutil & Ferrari
6-Best Rookie: Vettel
7-The most surprising moment: Kimi's pitstop accident and blow-up.

As a Kimi fan, it was a horrible race for me to watch. What could go wrong went wrong, and the worst is that probably Kimi made that mistake in the pitstop. That was a very bad mistake. Stop when the light is red, and go when it's green, right? Vettel and Glock were really good this race, but it was soooo boring to watch too. Only one overtaking, I hope next year will be better. I also didn't like that Alonso was out so quick, really bad for the fans, pity for them, specially after that pane accident. Next race at Spa, no overtaking probably, but it will be better than this race I hope...
