1 - Best Driver
Schumacher, 24th to 5th.... and that too on a not so great car. Button also did well, for most races such a performance would have made him the best driver but...... SCHUMI was brilliant!
And Vettel deserves a mention because he overtook :)

2 - Best Team
Red Bull, 1-2 and nothing else to say :D

3 - Best Overtake
Webber on Alonso at Eau Rouge was just out of this world. Overtake of the season without a doubt.

4 - Best Moment
Rosberg's start. Starting 5th with smoking brakes, getting up to 4th off the line, then 2nd after the first corner and leading after the Kemmel straight.

5 - Worst Driver
Senna, cocked up his qualifying with some idiotic driving at the start

6 - Worst Team
Toro Rosso, neither car got any more than six laps

7 - Best Rookie
Maldonado, he finally got his first point :)

8 - Biggest Surprise
Rosberg leading at the start, also the mysterious loss of speed for Ferrari on the medium tyre

9 - General Comment(s)
Great race, large amounts of overtaking, even by Vettel(!), brilliant races from Schumacher and Button, great tactics by Red Bull to get a 1-2 on a track where they were suffering from blistering

1 - Best Driver- Michael Schumacher IMO because th Mclaren is still a very good car so 3rd is not as shocking as Schumi's 5th
2 - Best Team- Red Bull
3 - Best Overtake- Webber on Alonso. Clean racing from both of them (i was sure they woud collide at the exit LOL)
4 - Best Moment- the above overtake, Rosberg's start
5 - Worst Driver- tough one, Hamilton for another mistake perhaps
6 - Worst Team- STR (a lot down to bad luck and incidents)
7 - Best Rookie- Maldonado, had no idea he was anywhere cose to points until end :lol:
8 - Biggest Surprise- Alonso slow pace in last stint and Nco taking lead in the start

9 - General Comment(s)- a bit subdued action after SC restart, else it was a nice race but the DRS enabled length as too much IMO leading to false racing

1 - Best Driver- Schumi in an under performing car. 24th to 5th just amazing. Give him the right car & he can win races.
2 - Best Team- Red Bull
3 - Best Overtake- For me the overtake of the season . Webber on Alonso Eau Rouge.
4 - Best Moment- Rosberg taking the lead.
5 - Worst Driver- Hamilton. Very Immature Drive. Could have easily scored some points had he bide his time.
6 - Worst Team- HRT
7 - Best Rookie -Maldonando
8 - Biggest Surprise- Alsonso losing out to Webber & Button.

I didn't see full race, only last laps, and some videos here.

1 - Best Driver
Button, impressive last laps

2 - Best Team
RBR

3 - Best Overtake
Webber to Alonso, was nice, but Alonso was in his outlap, so his tyres was not enought warm. Few laps after, Alonso to a Force India and Webber. Nice too.

4 - Best Moment
5 - Worst Driver
Senna, two spanish drivers crashed in same point

6 - Worst Team
Ferrari, stupid decissions, as he used to do

7 - Best Rookie
8 - Biggest Surprise

1 - Best Driver

Can't decide - JB and Seb did a great job

2 - Best Team

Red Bull - compare it to '09! So big improvements!

3 - Best Overtake

Not a lot possibilties here - i just say: Eau Rouge

4 - Best Moment

The "best overtake" named above

5 - Worst Driver

Probably Hamilton - really stupid move! Senna also bad, but only in turn 1, qualy was very impressive!

6 - Worst Team

HRT - seriously, remove 107% rule if the stewards give them the right to start anyway

7 - Best Rookie

Maldonado - still unsure about Saturday, but Sunday was brilliant.

8 - Biggest Surprise

Mark Webber on the prime tyre (long distance, but still very very cometitve lap times)

9 - General Comment(s)

DRS too heavy here, made overtaking far too easy. I guess they need some dry running in practice to adjust the length of DRS zone.


Overall: 8/10 (Spa without rain isn't Spa!)
