Anyway.
My Driver of the Day is Daniel Ricciardo
It was once more close between him and others but I feel that 13th to 4th was a great drive regardless of the issues Seb had. If that had been by a Mercedes it would not be as impressive, but considering how strong the Mercedes engine was I thought against the odds and early struggles he done a great job.
It was so close though, I thought a lot of drivers did a great job today.
Other Mentions: in no particular order
Lewis Hamilton - Brilliant job defending from Rosberg ALL day. I disagree with those who say his defending was too hard. I have always been a supporter of strong defensive driving. I remember being one of the few supporting Schumacher in Monza in his Mercedes in 2011 or 2012. Which ever year it was that he was nearly on the podium.
Nico Rosberg - I actually thought Nico did a great job today too, before the SC he raced well on a different tyres and passed Hamilton 3 or 4 times and didn't even look like losing his head wheel to wheel. Could easily have won the race.
Sergio Perez - A really composed drive. He started 4th and at times got shuffled down to 6th and 7th, but stayed on it and past Hulkenberg late on. A fine Podium.
Nico Hulkenberg - Another great drive in a day of great drives. 11th to 5th is another good effort in a midfield that is always competitive.
Sebastian Vettel - Seb was another one who drove well. He was fighting several problems and overcame then to go from 10th to 6th.
Max Chilton - He is doing a decent job this year for Marussia. He has finished all 3 races, which for the team is important. He hasn't gotten into incidents like Bianchi who tangled with Maldonado in Malaysia and Sutil today and he has two 13th places and a 15th. Decent effort. Also 22 out of 22 finishes.I still exist and still find the forum occasionally. Busy busy
I have always admired his ability to communicate with his engineer, and thus create maximum feeling with the surface and what he can thus allow himself of speed in different combinations, but if you...
