The third race of the season should have given us plenty of options for nominations for Pass of the Year!
As usual, name what you thought was the best pass of the race. Those with the most nominations will go into the Pass of the Year poll at the end of the season.
Here are the previous threads for this year which are still open for nominations:

http://www.f1fanatic.co.uk/groups/f1/forum/topic/pass-of-the-year-2014-malaysian-grand-prix/hamilton’s cut-back on rosberg at turn 4 after it looked like nico had finally got ahead. hamilton’s defence was simply outstanding – can that be nominated (even though it’s not a pass)?
As I recall one time there was Kubica’s string of passes in Singapore nominated so I don’t see any reason why we shouldn’t nominate Hamilton vs Rosberg
Sorry for being a bit off-topic, but I have to share this with you as the Mercedes fight reminded me: you know what the funniest/weirdest thing for me in that battle? As the match for the other cars started to heat up after the pit stops the Hungarian commentator probably didn’t look at the timing screens for a while, and said “I have to disappoint the Mercedes fans because we might not see the team’s cars throughout the race”, and exactly at the end of that sentence the director cut to the onboard camera of Rosberg going side by side with Hamilton.
He made another big mistake that weekend when he started the qualifying with the question “Who will be the best behind Hamilton?”. And yet he’s still better than other commentators of recent years, but he should think through what he says more.
