Well, Vettel drove a (IMHO) largely unspectacular race but he was fast when he had to be, which was pretty much for the whole race, never put a foot wrong and in the end managed to win it. I'd also nominate Grosjean, Alonso and Webber.

Agree Kfzmeister
I think I will give it to Seb today. There wasn't much between the RB and Lotus but he held his nerve well.
Both Lotus drivers were very good and Lewis drive well to salvage good points after a terrible stint on the second set and Nico stitching him up.
Some other good drives too

How many extra laps did he last? If case you weren't counting, 6.
Kimi responded to the leaders in the first stop. That is what decided everything.
Their lap times, OF ALL THREE, throughout the whole race were consistently identical.
Other than that how can you compare Kimi and Grosjean? They were in different circumstances, with different strategies.
Do you think if they pit Kimi instead of Grosjean the result would have been different? Would Grosjean have won?

Kimi would have passed him, it would just have taken an extra lap perhaps.
A comparison with Webber is also pointless. A comparison with Lewis and Rosberg would be more appropriate.

Driver of the Race: Sebastian - He wasnt in the fastest race car today so to hold the Loti off all race was a great effort.
Other Mentions:
Kimi - Good drive for 2nd.
Romain - A great drive and could have won it really.
Fernando - Another solid comeback drive when the car is slow.
Lewis - Not a great race, but gets a mention for his determination. Defended as hard as he could all day.
Jenson- Solid drive on a different strategy to get 8 points
Hulkenberg- Gritty drive in 5th for a while. In the end another point.I still exist and still find the forum occasionally. Busy busy

The top 4 all had very good races IMO, but I give a slight edge to Vettel.
May the forza be with you
