Rosberg is DotR
Hamilton gets an honorable mention for of course winning and pretty much conserving his engine. If he pushed, i'm sure he could have stretched the lead
Vergne as well, for yet again outperforming Kyvatt on race day.

He made a big mistake but Im still going to give DOTR to Obe.
I can't give it to Rosberg even if his tyre-management was excellent, he still threw a better challenge for the win away and I have to rate the whole race. So apart from Hamilton, who some say is "unratable" since he was "just cruising", I very much like what Bottas and Button did. Though I suspect Williams/Bottas could have thrown a P2 away as well by being too conservative on tyres and believing Rosberg would pit again. Then again hard to say.
E: Oh, and I forgot. The real driver of the race was of course Putin. How dare you think otherwise! Actually I am surprised he didn't try out an F1 car some time before the actual drivers took it out on track...
Bottas. He had to fight for his podium spot. The Mercedes was so dominant that Lewis just cruised once Nico screwed his strategy up.
Honorable mention to Button for quietly driving to 4th.
Tempted to suggest Rosberg for the recovery drive, however he put himself in that position initially so difficult to give him drive of the race, and one has to pose the question “could he have recovered so well in a different car?”
Can’t give it to Lewis, the car was so superior all he had to do was point it in the right direction.
I’d give this one to Bottas or Button.
I see nothing wrong with saying that Rosberg was the biggest donkey and driver of the race ;p
