Rosberg for clawing his way back to 2nd spot after he flat spotted his tires in turn 1. Incidentally, he is also voted Donkey of the race

Watching from Lewis' in-car camera, he was not working very hard at all. He was coasting into the corners and moving his hands smoothly in one swoop with very little correction. That car was absolutely on rails, but that's easier to achieve when you are at 9/10ths instead of 10/10. I think Lewis just cruised the whole race. He may have pushed at one point, but from the in-car, it sure did not look like it. To me, it looked like he had an auto pilot.
He may have won the race, but it looked way too easy. If I am Rosberg's engineer, I don't let him watch Hamilton's in car footage. It would be too disheartening to see how easy Lewis had it.Last edited by Doc Austin; 12th October 2014 at 18:16.

Wet conditions. Portuguese Autosport brought something to the table... the WRC2 crews are using a WRC spec tyre that is harder than the spec Meeke and other CPR runners are using.
