Driver of the Day

Au contraire! I'm glad that Vettel beat the overrated Frenchie to the flag! :

I agree Bourdais is overrated. That is what makes him being faster than vettel at a true racers track all the more enjoyable

A look at the championship standings tells the whole story! Sorry, but you are supporting a losing horse.

Oh, and he should learn to swim, cause driving in the wet is clearly not for him, not even on a drivers track! :

Heidfeld deserves it just for the final lap drama, astonshing gamble that paid off.

I think it was Raikkonen.

He was under a hell of a lot of pressure (possibly for his very job itself) and ran quite a consistent race up until the point he went off.

If you consider that a) he was on tyres that were 18 laps old and b) probably slicked off at the time, then can you really blame him for hitting what could be a 3 inch squared portion of track with less grip whilst at the same time doing 130mph?

From the run from Stavelot to the Bus Stop and through Blanchimont, cars touch 200mph in the dry, and that's assuming good grip conditions. If you've driven on the motorway in bad rain, you'll know first hand how treacherous it can be - now try that without a windscreen, or wipers, or without grooves on the tyres.

Had this been a driver error maybe you could blame him, but seriously...

STR drivers. Lewis was mainly lucky in my opinion.

I second that

Fred managed, orchestrated, strategized, and drove a masterful race, in a p.o.s. !
