    @davids now that’s a scoring system I could get behind!

    Best:
    – Grosjean’s skills coming together. Seeing him settle into a calm and fast driver has been a joy to watch
    – Witnessing Vettel’s dominance, ok it can be boring at times but that Red Bull just suits him. Clearly the combination of the team and driver brings the magic.

    Worst:
    – Maria de Villota’s death
    – The tyres. I defended them last year because we saw some good racing and some interesting strategies but this year it has become a joke. There are races where I can’t even tell you what happened because they were so boring with predictable pit strategy and tyre conservation meaning you knew early on where everyone was likely to finish.

    Best Driver: Vettel, flawless drive

    I’ve always had a team and a driver that I support – occasionally the stars have aligned and my favourite driver is in my favourite team!

    Team wise, it’s Lotus nee Renault nee Benetton, I stuck by them during the insanity of Briatore’s last seasons simply because they were my team! I’ve been an Alonso fan pretty much since he started in F1, I’m still a fan but I think he’s now lost his ‘most favourite driver’ spot to Grosjean!

    Best Driver: di Resta – although I’d forgotten about him until I read other responses. There’s something very bland about him that makes me forget he’s there!
    Worst Driver: Schumacher
    Best Team: Force India, an unfortunately timed safety car is the only reason Hulkenberg didn’t finish well
    Worst Team: Williams, both drivers doing well until the cars broke on them
    Best Overtake: Massa on Senna
    Best Funny-Moment: What happened there? What happened there?
    Most Surprising Result: Glock 12th
    Least Surprising Result: Karthikeyan hit a wall
    Special Mention To: Lotus, considering how badly they started the weekend they managed to get both cars home in the points & Vettel, disappointed with himself in qualifying he started superbly and just kept going
    Race Rating: 6/10

    Best Driver: Perez
    Worst Driver: Webber, struggled all weekend
    Best Team: McLaren
    Worst Team: Red Bull
    Best Overtake: Perez on Raikkonen
    Best Funny- moment: ‘Stop the car stop the car’
    Most Surprising Result: Perez, although we shouldn’t be surprised he has done this before!
    Least Surprising Result: d’Ambrosio struggling
    Special Mention to: Sauber, they’re better than they think & Lotus who did their fastest ever pit stop (2.44) and had both under 3s

    Best Driver: Jenson Button, finally gets the car working and drives the hell out of it
    Worst Driver: I hate to say it because I really like him, but Romain Grosjean – he was struck with a bit of bad luck picking up the puncture that damaged the car, but even before that he never really got the car working, certainly had a weekend to forget
    Best Team: Sauber
    Worst Team: Williams, another team hit with bad luck but also did nothing special
    Best Overtake: Räikkönen on di Resta
    Best Funny- moment: Hamilton/Vettel from the McLaren radio call to Vettel’s anger
    Most Surprising Result: Romain Grosjean
    Least Surprising Result: Fernando Alonso dominating the weekend
    Special Mention to: Räikkönen from 10th to 4th and inheriting 3rd. Solid driver
    Race Rating: 6/10

    BBC vs Sky: Sky
    Best BBC/Sky commentator/presenter: Ted Kravitz
    Worst BBC/Sky commentator/ presenter: The lead presenters as a group, going on and on about Lotus being continually bad at strategy – that was rather a head scratching moment
    Best Commentary moment: Kravitz fanboying at the cars all lined up together tied with Hill and Herbert’s insistance to Christian Horner that Vettel’s overtake being wrong and Hamilton’s overtake being legal
    World feed rating: 7/10, definitely felt like we were missing interesting things on track
