    Driver of the Hungarian procession

    Who do you think shone the most today?

    For me it's quite difficult to single anyone out, but I'd probably go for Rosberg in lack of a better candidate. He was the fastest driver today, but a poor start ruined his chances. Kimi also had a nice recovery race.

    There's also Alonso for coming best of the rest, but that's all we can say about his race. This was a good track for the McLarens and he delivered.

    I don't agree with the choice of Rosberg at all. He had a poor start, and that was that. He never looked to challenge Hamilton after that at all (maybe he wasn't allowed to post-Austria).

    Maybe Kimi - to improve from 14th to sixth on a track that is notoriously hard to over-take on was quite good, as was not crashing into Verstappen although the Dutchman seemed hell-bent on causing a collision.

    Ultimately, though, I'd go for the dancing track marshalls. They provided the only real highlight of an incredibly dull race.

    Certainly not Rosberg- Hamilton had him under control at all times and pulled out a gap whenever needed.

    Driver of the day, probably Alonso, Hammy and Ricciardo but a boring race overall.

    I think Raikonenn deserves that accolade. He drove a fantastic race from 14th at the start to 6th.

    Max for another display of pretty awesome defending.

    Verstappen clearly moved twice.
    Forza Jules! Forza Michael!

    If he didn't move a second time, how would he manage to take the corner? The first move was to defend, the second move was him simply driving around the turn.

    I am loving his driving style, his defending is very strong but fair - the attacking driver needs skill and commitment.

    Sorry buddy, he should have thought about the corner before making the first move, that's what every other driver do. He drove a crap race today, not impressed with him today. I am a Verstapenn fan by the way.

    The dancing marshals for sure. Highlight of the race.

    Jeez take your pick. After the excitement of Saturday, Sunday was really a bore to watch. I can't think of anyone that put in an exemplary exhibition that set him apart

    The Boss may have very cleverly managed this race from the front, putting as little stress on his PU as possible. If so that is commendable

    Nico stayed close. but was whupped none the less

    Rico drove a good strategic race, but Red Bull is not quite there yet.

    Vettel and Kimi represented the Scuds well, a good result for them. Kimi had the strategy and the will to show well. It seemed like a frustrating race for Seb.

    Max raced hard and mostly fair, I like his spirit.

    I guess Fred had a decent race, nothing more than I would expect though.

    No one really stood out to me!
    May the forza be with you
