This one left me a bit cold. The safety car start sucked. 5/10

Vettel 10/10 - the boys a god

Sutil - 7/10 - would have been 9 but for the shunt

Kimi - 3/10 - he gets a few points for staying out there and not getting an ice cream

after the safety car came in, quality race 9/10.

Sutil was doing brilliantly, until he crashed, but in such treturious conditions someone was bound to, so 8/10 for him.

Lewis looked great, until he span and he did that a few times more, 5/10 because he showed good speed before he started spinning.

driver of the day with 10/10 is vettel, faultless

donkey of the race goes to Trulli, couldnt get used to the conditions. 1/10

tactical bodge of the race is jointly won by Williams and Renault who made the wrong call to rosberg and alonso when pitting them in early.

I don't want to start a new thread called "Best Moment of the Race"
so I will do so here:

My best moment of the race was when they had a replay of Massa's engine failure from the on board camera.

It was great how the race commentators on "SPEED" stayed QUIET as we had a generous amount of time to listen to the motor before it got into the sounds of a car loosing it's power in the blink of an eye.

That was a cool.

*not for Massa or Ferrari supporters of course but because it was nice to be able to experience the moment so clearly.

Race 6/10 It had it's moments, but i do feel that unusually the rain spoilt it a little bit.

Sutil 8/10 Drove magnificently yet again in the rain, i sure wish he would hang on for points though, he can't continue to lose out so harshly like this.

Lewis 4/10 I was impressed with qualifying, but it was very unusual to see a wet specialist like Hamilton is go off so many times. Conditions were quite bad but if lewis hadn't gone off so much, i reckon he would have been closer to the front.

Heikki Kovalainen and Mark Webber 8/10 I think credit where credits due is required here. Heikki hadn't completed a lap before this race, and drove well to finish ahead of Hamilton. Webber is underrated sometimes because of his failures in the past to score good points consistently, but his best ever finish and some great duelling with Button proved that he won't lie down easily to Vettel.
