2 - Best Team-RB/Ferrari again both faultless, no errors and top 4 by both teams.
3 - Best Overtake- Alonso on Hamilton, Webber on Alonso
4 - Best Moment- Alonso on Hamilton on home turf, after build up lewis saying he needs to beat him on his own grounds like Alonso did in Valencia
5 - Worst Driver- Not sure.
6 - Worst Team- HRFAIL

1 - Best Driver

Webber drove a faultless race but my vote goes to Grosjean, last in the 1st lap but finished 14 seconds behind the leader.

2 - Best Team

Red Bull

3 - Best Overtake

Webber on Alonso

4 - Best Moment

The flash interview on the podium after the race.

5 - Worst Driver

Maldonado

6 - Worst Team

McLaren

7 - Best Rookie

None

8 - Biggest Surprise

McLaren's pace for the second consecutive race

9 - General Comment(s)

There is a sporting expression in my country saying (the expression is used in sports when an underdog faces a better opponent) : "Only rain can save you", since it didn't rain the show wasn't saved, not bad for a race though.

1 - Best Driver - Grosjean, my money says he'll be a champion one day
2 - Best Team - Red Bull, 1st and 3rd
3 - Best Overtake - Hamilton on Alonso when Alonso had DRS, I know it didn't stick but WOW the boy can drive
4 - Best Moment - Lotus with a strong finish
5 - Worst Driver - Button, does someone poison his water when he comes home?
6 - Worst Team - Caterham, big let down for all the talk of their new upgrades, maybe the rain threw them off
7 - Best Rookie - ?
8 - Biggest Surprise - Ferrari 2-4

9 - General Comment(s)
Rather boring race but an unexpected result. Was really impressed by Grosjean once again (Kimi better watch his back) and was really disappointed Caterham wasn't closer to points.

1 - Best Driver - Alonso
2 - Best Team - Red Bull
3 - Best Overtake - Hamilton on Alonso
4 - Best Moment - err... can't point out any
5 - Worst Driver - Maldonado
6 - Worst Team - McLaren for disappointing the most
7 - Best Rookie - ??
8 - Biggest Surprise - Alonso losing the pace at the end

9 - General Comment(s) - I don't understand why so many of you rated Webber as the best, he only had a better car and would probably be humiliated by Alonso with the same car.

1 - Best Driver: Webber with Grosjean a close second
2 - Best Team: Red Bull
3 - Best Overtake: Many of Grosjean's as he made he way back to contention from last place
4 - Best Moment: When everyone realized Alonso would NOT win and had to start eating their words. The commentating has become serious c**p lately, with more drivel serving as "knowledge" than usual.
5 - Worst Driver: Maldonado
6 - Worst Team: McLaren, then Mercedes
7 - Best Rookie: Grosjean.
8 - Biggest Surprise: The weather. I went to bed and woke up to sunny skies which blew all my predictions to hell.

9 - General Comment(s): Another great race. I am getting sick of the British accents though.

Did someone actually comment on ONLY 48 overtakes?
This is the best F1 season ever.

@lucian: Your comment about the "best" driver was amusing. In a previous race Vettel was in a superior car, was the "best" driver" until his car broke down. Then Grosjean was the "best" driver until his car broke down. Ultimately Alonso was the "best" driver because he won the race after two better drivers, in better cars had to leave him the win. I didn't hear any comments from you about that race.
In the same race Schumacher placed 3rd when in fact he might have placed 5th if he had to actually race someone for the position.
