What a fantastic start by Grosjean!! Way to go!
Fascinating race until the final laps when Vettle $#&&$ and &*&^%( I was completely $##&^*^%%$ and that is my final word on the winner..
However it was great to see both Mark Webber and Romain Grosjean fighting for position. Romain is really turning out a great driver and it will be interesting to see how he goes next year. I have given him DotD. I felt bad for Hamilton. would have been interesting to see where he would have finished...but unfortunately that wasn't to be.

Yeah, it's a shame Grosjean couldn't win, but he drove very well.

However, I've gone for Gutierrez as driver of the day. It's his first points finish and he was right (in standings, if not time) behind Hulkenberg, who I think is probably the best driver without a title to his name. Good to see the young Mexican finding his feet, with his first points after two consecutive Q3 appearances.
