Quite frankly, I don't see how signing Räikkönen over Hülkenberg could be a bad decision. I'd expect both drivers to work professionally. They might give each other trouble for the WDC but it should be all good for the WCC.

I wouldn't put Räikkönen above Grosjean this occasion. Grosjean had a better qualifying and a huge advantage before the SC. Kimi did well to overtake Romain, but other than that his opportunity was pretty much inherited. Like in Brazil last year Button lost a 40-second lead over Hamilton due to safety car.
Feel gutted for Romain actually. He has become really fast and been on course to beating his team-mate two races in a row now, but lost out in the end. Last time due to car failure.

Kimi had a troubled qualifying, Turun Sanomat (TS.fi) reported that he actually had a broken front wing in quali so it's really difficult to compare Kimi and Grosjean's race because Kimi was in traffic. Grosjean drove very well but let's be honest, it's a big mistake if your teammate overtakes you with older tires after a flying restart without the DRS.
Re: Korean Kimi of the race
I thought Grosjean and Hulkenberg were excellent. Grosjean had to fend off Hamilton once or twice, but Grosgean's battle with Hamilton was epic. Kimi was also good, specially considering his back injury, but he got into second because of SC. Grosjean's 2nd position looked pretty safe before the SC.

Re: Korean Kimi of the race
Nico Hulkenberg just beat my driver to the title; driver of the race.
But, I liked when Kimi overtook Fernando, twice that was if I´m not mistaken.

Apologies for a slight confusion, since people seemed to be discussing about the same thing in three different threads, so they were merged. Also a couple of personal insults were deleted in the other thread.
Re: Korean Kimi of the race
Seb, Hulk, Kimi. Brilliant drives from them.
Re: Korean Kimi of the race
As someone said in the Autosport Forums:
Drivers of the day are Hulk and Ho Li Phuk, who gave Jeep their first lead lap in F1 :D
