Jenson Button. Without a doubt. Honourable mention to Kamui Kobayashi.

Overcoming contact with Lewis and then with Alonso.

i actually think TGF was the driver of the race.

Button was brilliant, but Schumacher bossed those wet conditions, just like the Schuey of old would. Shame he was robbed by 2 ridiculous DRS overtakes.

But respect to Button. Fantastic drive. Really was torn between the two.

It's the prove that DRS gives the advantage to the faster cars: it makes impossible for a slower car to mantain track position. hope they'll realize it soon and remove DRS, or else we only will rarely see a driver on the podium not belonging to the three bigger teams

I think Schumi was easily driver of the race. Button clearly had the faster car, in fact the best car in the field by the looks of it, and he still managed to take 2 ex-champions out of the race - both of which were more his fault. How do you give someone who took out his own team-mate and Alonso, driver of the race??? Without the many safety cars he would have been lapped after his drive through and those 2 incidents.

You can say Button was robbed of the win in Monaco, but the safety cars certainly robbed Vettel of the win in Canada.

Back to Schumi... what a shame he couldn't hold onto a podium, robbed by the insane DRS zone. I think he could have got Webber back given another couple laps. Both Red Bulls tyres look like they turned to **** in the couple laps.

That's debatable.

That's also debatable, however the pressure got to Vettel and he misjudged the corner and robbed himself.

That may be true but fact is, without the safety cars, no one would have got close enough to Vettel for him to make the mistake. But leading 69 laps doesn't matter at Canada, it's who crosses the line at the end of the 70th, so fair play to Jenson, commiserations to Seb.

He did show great car control in the tough conditions and never put a wheel wrong. Had a good number of laps led, too.


Button, no doubt.

Has to be Button. Yes he had DRS, but Vettel slid and Button got his chance to take a win. I will give Schumi the runner up. that was the German rainmaster of old. At one point I thought he was going to take the fight to Vettel! German versus German! Sadly it wasn't to be. Third place is difficult. It either has to be Vettel or Webber. Both made mistakes, but had pretty good races! Vettel will still be happy with 2nd place. He will blitz Valencia I reckon!

Epic fail of the day - Hamilton(AGAIN!)! Too rash! Please don't give another interview quoting Ali G, Lewis!

Schumacher who got into 2nd position with a midfield car, losing it only to DRS.
