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.

So go ahead and tell me how great kimi was when the entire race he was outperformed by grosjean and kimi was benefited TWICE by team orders? if that was vettel people would be saying team orders need banned and he's the worst driver ever. What a joke. can the personal attacks and try to actual come up with a valid argument in the future.

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

7th July 2013, 16:28 #14Without the safety car, Grosjean would probably have won the race. If his last pit stop was as quick as Vettel's, Vettel wouldn't have come out ahead either.

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?

7th July 2013, 16:33 #15So the fact that Kimi while catching Vettel (and Grosjean) at about half a second a lap, Grosjean should have wasted his time?

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

Grojan was very good today. Others didn't impress me much.
