1 - Best Driver
Giancarlo Fisichella - solid as. Jenson obviously dominated, but Fisi did so well all weekend in his Force India.
2 - Best Team
Brawn. Who else?
3 - Best Overtake
Rosberg on Massa. Brave, opportunistic, and milimetres from the wall. Or Jenson on foot, on all those marshalls and photographers. :p
4 - Best Moment
The whole first stint, which had so much action. The race settled down after that, but the Vettel/Rosberg/Massa fight, plus Buemi and Piquet's dramas and the overtakings at the back were just great.
5 - Worst Driver
Probably Buemi. He was just a bit too eager on Piquet.
6 - Worst Team
Toyota. Appalling.
7 - Biggest Surprise
How boring the second stint was. How close the midfield was, Jenson running to the podium.

8 - General Comment
I thought the first stint was rather good, with that close racing from 4th to 12th. There was a nice battle up front and some incidents. Until then end of the race, after the first pitstops, it was quite boring, but still interesting enough.

Brawn strategy was great, and they made the right choice to start on the supersofts and do a short first stint, because they had the pace. Jenson and to an extent Barrichello did a great job, as did the Ferrari drivers, and the other top 8 crew all did well too.

China - 9/10
Malaysia - 8/10
Australia - 7/10
Bahrain - 6/10
Spain - 6/10
Monaco - 6/10 - it was alright, some interesting bits..
No, I'm not calmer. Just more jaded.

1 - Best Driver: Button - I get more and more the impression that he´s like Alain Prost.
2 - Best Team: Brawn - 1-2 in Monaco, I´m sure Richard Branson is happy.
3 - Best Overtake: Rosberg on Massa
4 - Best Moment: Hmm nothing, maybe JB jogging down the straight :) such a cool lad.
5 - Worst Driver: Hamilton - GREAT qualifying mate :cool:
6 - Worst Team: Toyota - a joke
7 - Biggest Surprise: So many crashes, I didn´t expect that. It was like in the old Rosset, Nakano, Mazzacane and Burti days :lol:
8 - General Comment: Ferrari delivered a good performance, BMW and Toyota get worse and worse. Alonso is trapped in the middle of nowhere because of his car. Button is awesome and the championship is starting to get boring. Brawn need to get a second world class driver.
