Sorry if this is already a topic, Couldn’t find one like it on the forum.
I was thinking about what race I could watch to see each driver at the top of their game.
So anyone that has any suggestions of races that fulfil this criteria just post.
Like Button in canada 2011 for example

I find it interesting that it took 4 comments before somebody listed the same race as somebody else for Hamilton, despite 2 commenters having given 2 examples each. I’d possibly go for Germany 2011 (he still had highlights in his worst season).

[Kingshark]

I choose either one or two per driver.

Sebastian Vettel: Germany 2013 & Monza 2008
Daniel Ricciardo: Silverstone 2013
Fernando Alonso: Hungary 2006 & Malaysia 2012
Kimi Raikkonen: Belgium 2004 & Japan 2005
Lewis Hamilton: Silverstone 2008 & Germany 2011
Nico Rosberg: China 2012 & Monaco 2013
Romain Grosjean: Canada 2012 & USA 2013
Pastor Maldonado: Monaco 2011 & Spain 2012
Nico Hulkenberg: Brazil 2012 & Korea 2013
Sergio Perez: Malaysia 2012 & Canada 2012
Adrian Sutil: Monaco 2008 & Monaco 2013
Esteban Gutierrez: Japan 2013
Felipe Massa: Turkey 2006 & Brazil 2008
Valtteri Bottas: USA 2013
Jean-Eric Vergne: Canada 2013
Kamui Kobayashi: Japan 2010 & Japan 2012

[f199player]

One of my favorite all time drive drives, if ever a driver deserved to win a race but didn’t this is it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nNjB2oIv9cw

[Kingshark]

I forgot to add Jenson Button in my initial post, and since I can’t edit it, I would say that Hungary 2006 and Canada 2011 were his two best drives.

[ForzaAlanRabbit]

A few drivers not currently on the grid:

Webber: Monaco 2012
Di Resta: Bahrain 2013
Kovalainen: Hungary 2008
Pic: Brazil 2012
Glock: Singapore 2009
Trulli: Monaco, I don’t remember which year
Alguersuari: Any race in 2011 when he finished 8th or above
Buemi: No idea, probably a race in 2011
Liuzzi: His highest finish at Force India, wherever it may have been

Although it was debated at the time, I thought Hamilton racing Raikkonen in Belgium 2008 was one of the best things I’d ever seen, ever. I thought the penalty against him was wrong (although I understand the arguments from both sides) but despite that, I thought it was incredible to see them race each other, wheel-to-wheel in damp conditions, to the point where the defending WDC loses it!

Sure, maybe not his ‘best’ drive, and heck, he had the win taken from him, but that was one of those rare “wow” moments.
