The race was decided on turn one,especially Hamilton going 2nd...
Great start from the Mclaren's or i should say poor start from the Ferrari's cost them the race..

My driver of the day goes to Hamilton for the sheer perseverance of keeping Massa behind..
Didnt think Alonso did anything spectacular(apart from turn1) to deserve my drive of the day,similar to Kimi in Melbourne... Great drive nonetheless...True champion style.1st win for another team is always treasured.

Hamilton is growing faster than expected in the F1 experience & would be a good bet come next year around..very good & consistent drive from the young lad :clap: Keeping Massa behind ,making him loose his temper to over ambitious moves...Simply Briliant.

Kimi was hampered by his engine but did all he could to stay in touch with the championship leader...good finish on the Podium.

BMW didnt look tht fast to me to keep Massa behind...but they did with clever strategy & a bit of help from Massa...Probably was asked not to do any stupid overtaking(thts the only way he knows i guess)

Toyota's keep chipping these points..probably they r happy with their conveyance charges waved :shock: ..

I forgot to put Renault in my picks but they did good after their quali positions...sure there is Alonso deficiency..but there's more to that than we know..

Was sad to see Nico retired..would have finished in points for sure.

Looks like a Mclaren-Ferrari season...should be exciting i hope... especially for the 1st place

:cheers:

I actually wondered that too. I would have voted for Alex but since he wasn't on the list I couldn't find a name among them to excite me this race.
