    Donkey of the Race

    Has to be Paul di Resta really. Made an error and hit Grosjean

    Di Resta, special mention to Webber who didn't finish second in a dominant car.

    Di Resta made pretty much the only mistake on track, combination of Ferrari and Alonso for staying out so long and blowing a shot at the ailing Red Bull at the end of the race
    "I" before "E" except after "C". Weird.

    What about Checo for moving into Kimi or it was just Kimi misjudging the situation?

    Watched the replay, Checo braked late, locked up & Kimi ran into his rear. Still think he's at fault but it was a chaotic situation so may be deemed as racing incident.

    Kimi had little to do in that situation, Perez swung from the other side of the track and forced Kimi into the grass just coming into a braking zone. Just a shame that Perez didn't get a puncture for that.

    Bad luck for Kimi but really just a function of the funnel effect of that first turn.
    May the forza be with you

    Its such a big stop on such a narrow track contact is almost a certainty

    di Resta, but... unless I am mistaken he owned up to making a mistake (not something I thought I'd ever hear from 'Mini Mansell'
