8 - General Comment - Rule changes that were supposed to be good gave us the most boring season since 2004 The start of the race was pretty exciting, but again it kind of faded out after that.

1 - Best Driver - Button
2 - Best Team - Brawn
3 - Best Overtake - Hamilton on Raikkonen (sorry, but that was the only highlight for me in the race)
4 - Best Moment - Barrichello DNF
5 - Worst Driver - Barrichello, acting like a child with Fisichella and Kovalainen, I'm faster, you are slower, let me through, he was driving like a 19-year old rookie.
6 - Worst Team - McLaren, improvements? NO! Getting worse every GP!
7 - Biggest Surprise - Vettel losing 2nd
8 - General Comment - Boring!!

2/10

1 - Best Driver
Button, fastest in the fastest car.
2 - Best Team
Brawn, still ridiculously fast in race trim.
3 - Best Overtake
Piquet on Hamilton, completely isignificant, I know, but a very solid manouvre. Shame Renaults were so rubbish.
4 - Best Moment
Probably the aforementioned overtake, or the nice Alonso/Raikkonen/Kubica duel on the first lap.
5 - Worst Driver
Hmm, probably not Vettel, quite, but almost. I think Barrichello.
6 - Worst Team
STR were hopeless. How can they be so slow, with Red Bull so fast?
7 - Biggest Surprise
Not Button winning, that's for sure, although I wish I'd put that for the prediction league.

8 - General Comment
Boring race. Hope it changes in Silverstone.

Sorry, but with already 2 guys saying Hamilton was the worst driver, I have to make a statement. Hamilton didn't put a foot wrong, all race long (you can't deny that), and still he was the worst driver? I just don't understand how you can say that, when you know the problem is the car he drives. Saying McLaren as the worst team is absolte deserved, they were I think, but when you beat Kovalainen with 15s or so, you should at least make him the worst driver as they have the same material. I think this is just Anti-Hamiltonism. If you are going to look at every race like this, Hamilton will be your worst driver every GP. I know I will get a lot of comments on this comment, fanboyism and stuff like that, but I really had to say this, as I think it's absolutely, totally wrong to rate Hamilton as the worst driver.

The last thing I want is having a quarrel with you, but can you at least tell me on what base Hamilton was the worst driver?

i'm agreeing with you there. he was not the worst driver, its the freakin' car!

1 - Button, once again.
2 - Red Bull
3 - Heikki on Rubens
4 - Barrichello spinning
5 - Barrichello. trying to get the positions back quickly, resulting in him losing positions. Greed.
6 - McLaren i'm afraid to say.
7 - Nakajima in 4th place at one point (not for long though )
8 - Pretty boring and, in most places, predictible.

Everyone has the right to an opinion Joost, Shail thought Hamilton was worst, you and I didn't - statistically he wasn't, but no-one here is saying Fisichella was worst
