    Grosjean, obviously, but plenty of honorable mentions:

    MacLaren and Williams for horrible pit strategy.
    Rosberg for whining about Lewis not moving over for him when he was nowhere near passing range.
    The world feed director for inexplicably following the fight for 4th place while the top 3 drivers were within 3 seconds of each other.

    Nico marginal faster but not so he would pull away from lewis by seconds and after few laps he fall back before pitting. Would compromise Lewis race if he throw away handful seconds for slow Rosberg.

    Stupid call and hope not try again.

    That is something I was wondering if others noticed, or if it was just my desire to see Alonso's race. But when I re-watched it I noticed how very lame that really was!

    That was stupid enough to qualify someone usually out of the loop for a donkey award.



    But there were plenty of donkeys to go around this race.

    Ferrari for keeping Kimi in during Q1

    RoGro for finding a wall during a safety car

    Perez for finding slippery curbs on the last turn

    Vettel for doing the same and being lucky enough to get away with it

    McLaren for making a stupid roll of the dice with both cars!

    Williams for lack of tire strategy

    Nico for managing to make the quickest car on the grid go backwards

    Mark for not posting pickems results for the lack couple of races yet

    Just about everyone that guessed pickems having Lewis for the win

    Taz for drunk posting

    Me for having a suck FGP team this year

    Does falling asleep on the couch with half hour to go count? I woke to see the podium and was immediatley pissed off at missing the final laps! And there's no free-to-air replay anymore in Oz. The station that has F1 FTA in Oz has sold everything except the actual race to Murdoch. Shits me to tears

    Yes it counts. That half hour had a LOT of action. Now I'll have to add a name to my list of donkeys!

    Seriously, find it on YouTube or wherever you have to look. It's worth it.
