Great race to watch. 9/10. Doesn't liven the championship up as much as I hoped it would, but still quite enjoyable.

Räikkönen, Alonso or Vettel? Great drives from all of them!
2 - Best Team
Williams. 5th and 8th was pretty good.
3 - Best Overtake
Vettel on Button. They showed drivers like Perez or Grosjean how to overtake
4 - Best Moment
The second safety car where Vettel was 4th with the best tyres. I really thought he would win this race after that!
5 - Worst Driver
Sergio Perez. Throwing away good points again like he did several times this year. I personally don't think he's ready to join a top team like Mclaren
6 - Worst Team
Mercedes I guess.

what a great race! Surely one of the best this year. It's surprising to be honest because i thought Abu Dhabi will always be boring.

I couldn't believe, it was a race from Abu Dhabi. Definitely one of the best races this season. It was disappointing to see that Mercedes was unable to get a single point. Also, this race could have been better for Caterham as well.

Lewis Hamilton was brilliant and didn't deserve that. Kimi Raikkonen, Alonso, Vettel all superb. Senna was ace too, can't decide.

One of the best dry races in history, 10/10. Tense and action packed from lights to flag and not down to tyres as well!

Really didn't see full race, so...
1 - Best Driver, Kimi, I don't think he was best driver on this race, but in this season with so many winners, he deserve to win more than other. Alonso and Vettel drove awesome. Vettel some lucky with SC.

Lots of good performances. Hamilton, Raikkonen and Vettel. He may have got lucky with his strategy and safety cars but he made the most of it.
2 - Best Team
Williams
3 - Best Overtake
Vettel on Button.
4 - Best Moment
Raikkonen winning because it won me £190.
5 - Worst Driver
Perez. Dishonourable mention Webber. Some people like to beat up on Vettel, but only one Red Bull driver embarrassed himself that race. The worst thing is he'll speak s*** about other drivers, then have a race like that.
6 - Worst Team
HRT for what Phil said.
7 - Best Rookie
Vergne
8 - Biggest Surprise
An exciting race.
9 - General Comment(s)
Race had it all really, including a tense last lap finish where the winner wasn't certain. Part of the credit should go to HRT and their faulty hydraulics system.

Well a excelent race, enyoyed it alot. Really great one. If you wanna have a good race on TV just put all the world champions at the back of grid and then youll have great racing. Barcelona showed, And Abu Dhabi showed.
Well hopefully the trend follows in the last 2 races. Happy 4 Kimi.

Re: Rate the 2012 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix
1. Best driver: Newey.... I mean.... Vettel hehehehe
So, is it a bit more clear now? the guy can drive. He's shown it a lot of times. That's why he has 2, not just because he's got the best car.
2. Best Team: No team was particularily strong.
3. Best overtake: Vettel vs Button
4. Best moment: Great initial and final laps from Alonso.
5. Worst driver: Webber. Poor race in a great car, lots of bad judgement.
6. Worst team: Considering Lewis should have won and Button should have gotten podium.... WTF. Mclaren must do better.
7. Best rookie: whoever finished best.
8. Biggest surprise: Vettel started sketchy... then geared up and drove like a man.
9. General comment: it was a bit of a difficult race to follow with the SC making it less pretty... but Abu Dhabi is ussualy bad and this race was pretty good so thumbs up. The podium finishers were all winners.
Could the track/facilities be more impressive?? beautiful, work of art.......
I gave it 8. 9 had Alonso won...
