Quite hard to pick a driver of the day. For me, it was between Schumacher and Button, and I went for Schumacher. Despite Massa falling back due to many pit stops and Hamilton being taken out by Kobayashi Rosberg managed to go backwards, whereas his team mate made up 19 places.

Be interesting to see if the Mercedes' excellent top line speed advantage is retained in Monza (if it was just due to gambling on a dry set-up rather than a wet-dry compromise then it might not be).

Wow that was a very interesting race. I ended up giving DoftD to Jenson Button, but like Thaddeus I agree that there were many drivers who deserve dotd.
Nico Rosburg.. like a shot from a gun at the start of the race!!
Michael Schumacher did well to come from the back of the field.
Mark Webber who had a lousy start but came back to be second on the podium.
Bruno Senna who replaced Nick Heidfeld and really shone and showed why he deserved the seat.
Looking forward to the next race.
