Seriously, I can't look past Pérez for this. Both Hamilton and Alonso did brilliant races, but Pérez was the star of the race by a country mile. His pace on the last laps was absolutely crazy - not just 1-1.5 seconds faster than the cars in front, but he also was way faster than Kamui for most of the race. It was absolutely crazy stuff, and he earned a well-deserved place on the podium. You've got to wonder what would have happened if he had cared to fight to hold Hamilton behind him before his first pitstop, rather than letting him through easily.
