Massa. Can't give it to Hamilton. The race was over after Rosberg lost his car.

Rosberg. Although he got a bit stroppy at times he showed real class in wanting to get the car over the line.
Other than that Hamilton had a solid driver and Ricciardo was yet again far more impressive than his multi-championship winning team mateYou're so beige, you probably think this signature is about someone else.

Driver of the Race:
Felipe Massa - It was close and probably Daniel could have won it, but I will give it to Felipe. Raced hard and fast with no mistakes and matched and raced a Mercedes.
Other Mentions:
Daniel Ricciardo - Amazing drive from the pits to 4th. Should have probably won the award from me.
Lewis Hamilton - Great start and nice drive. To win his 11th race of the season. Great effort to win his title.
Valterri Bottas - Another good job after that poor start. Glad he got onto the Podium
Jenson Button - Again a brilliant effort in that Mclaren. Can't believe we are likely to never see Jenson in F1 again.
Will Stevens - A mention for finishing his first race only a lap down in a car that was thrown onto the grid.I still exist and still find the forum occasionally. Busy busy

not to argue this issue again, but i think the FIA should stay out of the radio communications regulations. let teams and drivers decide what information they want and don't to be transmitted over the radio.
Like i said before, the only reason it was even an issue is because the FIAS themselves decided to broadcast those communications, and did a piss poor job of deciding what was broadcast and what was not. So instead of acknowledging their own shortcoming and tightening up what messages they provide, they instead handicap the teams so they can continue to be lazy about their own production. and in doing so have created, as usual, more confusion and additional problems where non existed before. it was a knee jerk reaction to some pundits, uninformed fans and butter former drivers, who would probably have a difficult time getting these very complex cars off the grid without some assistance, especially if things started going wrong and several, bleeps and lights started to come on.you can't argue with results.

Ricciardo and Massa, in that order.
After that, a lot of great drives in the top 10.

Ricciardo for me but I'm puzzled.
How does Ricciardo start behind Vettel based on P3 times and go on to finish 37 seconds off the win and 35 seconds in front of Vettel?
It was a strong drive by Ricciardo but starting from the pit lane is supposed to be a penalty isn't it?
There's something not right...
how long since the last time a Msport Fiesta won a round of the ERC?
