Perez on the podium! That and Alonso/Vettel

Perez overtaking both Ferrari's

Kobayashi. His teammate finished second and he is nowhere. He is going to lose his seat if he does not improve or find some Japanese sponsors.
6 - Worst Team
Force India. Both cars had to many technical issues this weekend (gearbox, KERS, brakes & and whatever happened to Hülkenberg during Q1)
7 - Best Rookie

1 - Best Driver: Hamilton
2 - Best Team: Ferrari
3 - Best Overtake: Perez on Raikkonen.
4 - Best Moment: Perez's charge. Mercedes' late charge on their two stopper was also entertaining.
5 - Worst Driver: Kobayashi for reasons outlined by Edi96. Peter Sauber says they had the best car today, that really doesn't say much for Kobayashi's performance.
6 - Worst Team: Red Bull
7 - Best Rookie: Pic
8 - Biggest Surprise: Probably Perez. We've seen it before in Malaysia and Canada but not consistently. You never know quite when he's going to come this good!
9 - General Comment(s): Not a bad race, some entertaining battles throughout.

Sergio Perez

2 - Best Team
Ferrari

3 - Best Overtake
Perez on Raikkonen

4 - Best Moment
Vettel vs. Alonso, Fascinating! Nearly the same manoeuvre as last year. But this time they had to give Vettel a penalty. Hard to say if the penalty was justified. But Vettel didn't finish the race anyway

5 - Worst Driver
Jean Eric Vergne. Webber's pace was also pretty slow. Even with the drive through penalty, Vettel would've finished in front of him.

6 - Worst Team
Red Bull

7 - Best Rookie
I don't know

8 - Biggest Surprise
Button and Vettel retiring

9 - General Comment(s)
a good race but I don't like the result... 8/10

1 - Best Driver
Sergio Perez. Mention also to Lewis Hamilton.

2 - Best Team
Ferrari.

3 - Best Overtake
It´s hard to say. Perez on Raikkonen was very good, but still imperfect because Raikkonen managed to pass him right after that if I remember well. But there were some good moves.

4 - Best Moment
Perez passing everyone else.

5 - Worst Driver
Mark Webber. I think his perfomances in Monza are usually very bad (maybe it´s the track he has worse results).

6 - Worst Team
Red Bull. This weekend was a disaster for them.

7 - Best Rookie
Charles Pic.

8 - Biggest Surprise
Perez pace and Button retiring.

1 - Best Driver
Sergio Perez. Lewis was quite dominating but it's not that difficult when you start on pole with a car that has very good race pace.

2 - Best Team
Ferrari. Great reliability when others have faltered. Nice haul of points and a good showing by Felipe

3 - Best Overtake
Perez on Raikkonen the first time around, and his pass on Massa was quite ballsy as well the way he left it really late.

4 - Best Moment
Alonso vs Vettel at the curve de Grande. Very similar to last year's incident, although Vettel was a little bit more cynical about it.

5 - Worst Driver
Jev as it turns out his incident was all of his own making, and Kamui Kobayashi for being completely destroyed by his teammate.

6 - Worst Team
Red Bull. 2 cars effectively DNFed, and you'd thought they'd solve the alternator problem since Valencia.

7 - Best Rookie
He doesn't really count as a rookie now, but I give it to Checo

8 - Biggest Surprise
Red Bull never seemed a threat at all. Sergio Perez's stunning pace when his car is hooked up. Kimi Raikkonen really struggling.

9 - General Comment(s)
Fairly entertaining race. Too bad none of the action we saw was for the actual race win.

9 - General Comment(s)
Well it wass a good/ok race
But Ferrari are getting on my nerves. Same place like last year only different situation. for me its Alonso s own fault, Vettel made only outside avialable, but Alonso wanted inside line and he went off - and then he calls the Ferrari International Assistance and there you go - Vettel gets penalty, but what about last year??? No penalties at all. And when the F India pushed Senna off track - the stewards didnt see that at all, but when Fernando calls the they hear it very well. I hate everything must be decided on the table - where is the racing, damn!!!

But my man wins, hopefully he will get the crbaby Alonso in the championship.
8/10

1 - Best Driver- Perez
2 - Best Team- Ferrari
3 - Best Overtake- Perez On Kimi
4 - Best Moment- Alonso crying over Vettels Move. He forgot what he did last year.
5 - Worst Driver- Webber
6 - Worst Team- Red Bull
7 - Best Rookie- Pic
8 - Biggest Surprise- Button retiring & Saubers Pace in the second stint.
9 - General Comment(s)- Overall an interesting race. But Alonso making a big fuss ruined the show. Anyways he overtook Seb later in the race. Had he kept quiet on that move he would have gained some respect in my eyes. But we all Forgot that it was Monza and the message was clear that no one dare screws with the Ferrari Drivers.
