1-Best Driver
OK, this time I have no choice. Lewis Hamilton. osweat:

2-Best Team
Ferrari and BMW both very solid performances, both cars/drivers with optimal results. (given Kimi had a damaged nose)

3-Best overtaking
Hamilton on Massa/Piquet on Button

4-best Moment
"Best" is subjective and for me there were no "best" moments. The start was maybe most exciting though.

5-worst driver
Fisi. You are supposed to brake when you have a car in front, Fisi, you can't go through it...!
And Bourdais, how many races has he spun out of now?

worst team
No team were especially bad. Williams is perhaps the most disappointing team, I had expected more from them.

6-Best Rookie
Piquet. He's slow and he makes mistakes, but he stayed ON track the whole race and did a brilliant overtaking on Button.

7- the most surprising moment
Heikki pitting on lap 2. Heikki pitting a third time with 8 laps to go. (Didn't know about Macca's tyre problem at that time)

No I dont think he could keep up the pace that way and he didnt felt good at the option tires so I think they made the right choise bye doing a 3 stop

Who are the 2008 rookies?

There are only 3 rookies in 2008:
Renault: Nelsinho Piquet
Toro Rosso: Sebastien Bourdais
Williams: Kazuki Nakajima (if we forget his only drive of 2007 Brazilian GP)

Returning drivers (other people cataloged them like rookies):
Toyota: Timo Glock (first season 2004 with Jordan, GP entered 9)
Toro Rosso: Sebastian Vettel (first season 2007 with BMW and STR, GP entered 13)
Force India: Adrian Sutil (first season 2007 with Spyker, GP entered 22)

Let me know if anybody thinks different, but my criteria is:
A driver is a ROOKIE only when is his first season in F1 as a official drive for a team (not a test driver), that's why I have my doubts with Nakajima, but he only drove the 2007 Brazilian GP, so I decided to treat him like a rookie.

Than Glock is a Rookie to because he only driven one race before this season.
