1 - Best Driver
- Paul di Resta or Timo Glock. Both did top jobs with sub-par machinery

2 - Best Team
- Ferrari?

3 - Best Overtake
- Massa on Senna

4 - Best Moment
- Safety Car!

5 - Worst Driver
- Karthikeyan or Schumacher

6 - Worst Team
- McLaren for the gearbox failure, Red Bull for Webber's strategy

7 - Best Rookie
- Vergne was doing well until the collision

8 - Biggest Surprise
- Hamilton retiring

9 - General Comment
- First part of the race was dreadful, second much better. This track needs a SC because the high downforce nature of it invites a big field spread.

1 - Best Driver: Paul Di Resta
2 - Best Team: Ferrari
3 - Best Overtake: Massa on Senna
4 - Best Moment: Massa overtaking Senna. When the camera switched away from the onboard I thought he was in the wall. Great car control.
5 - Worst Driver: Mark Webber. One car dominates, the other is nowhere.
6 - Worst Team: Caterham
7 - Best Rookie: Vergne
8 - Biggest Surprise: Ferrari's pace. From fighting for pole in Monza to being a second off the leaders
9 - General Comment(s): OK race. First half of it I'd give 3/10, but the safety car helped cease the procession. 7/10

1 - Best Driver
Really no one top drivers. Vettel was a good weekend, only didn't get pole, and was 3rd on grid. Massa fight full race

2 - Best Team
Bad RBR (webber bad result), bad McLaren (loose one of this car, and maybe Hamilton is out championship race), bad Ferrari (Massa fight fine on race, but he loose too much on qualy)

3 - Best Overtake
Massa vs Senna

4 - Best Moment
after first SC

5 - Worst Driver
No one, but don't like vettel brake test. Maldonado was the only who loose places after start, from second to four

6 - Worst Team
-
7 - Best Rookie

8 - Biggest Surprise

Don't like Vettel brake test to Button. I think he deserved a penalty, but if so, championship was very clear to Alonso. And Vettel get a penalty last race, so steward forget to penalty Vettel

so you think Vettel didn't get a penalty because it would make the championship fight less exciting?

dacer · Post by **dacer** » 25 Sep 2012, 12:03

yes, and because, was second penalty in last two races. And because hamiton + webber + vettel = 0 point, was not an option for championship
