Mercedes knew they'll be rubbish with tire management and made the most out of their 2 stop strategy. A nice solid team effort of damage limitation.

Sauber for me. They extended the first stint for Perez to just the right moment, then changed tyres and he came on like gangbusters to take second. Awesome job both of driving and carrying out the strategy.

Would have been McLaren had both made the finish, but they didn't. So I went with the red cars.

Pretty close for me between Sauber and Ferrari, but I'll give it to Sauber for the way that Perez blew both red cars into the reeds.....

McLaren is a tough call. On the one hand they were fast all weekend and their best driver won pole and the race. On the other hand, they botched a pit stop and had a mechanical failure on one of their cars. I've gotta give this to Ferrari, who were also fast all weekend with both drivers near the top of the time sheets and both of their cars actually finished the race... although Alonso did have mechanical woes earlier into the weekend.

Mclaren brought the best car, and wont he race. Even with a DNF in there I vote for them.

Close call between the top 3 - gave it to Sauber for their effective tactical work on the tyre front - McLaren lose out because of Jenson's DNF (and the pitstop hiccup) and Ferrari similarly lose out for being cry-babies.....

Sauber for me as well. they did amazing turning around the disaster of Spa one week ago into a double point finish at Monza.
also enjoying seeing Monisha Kaltenborn taking a more visible position with the team. last week you could see the emotion (too much maybe) when Koba's brakes were overheating on the grid at Spa. this week she was solid on the pit wall. looks more and more like a Team Principle rather than a CEO. |

If it's a team we're voting for I'll have to say Ferrari.
They got the maximum possible out of the weekend and if Alonso's car hadn't been damaged with Vettel's "get yer back" manoeuvre would probably have done even better. Not to take anything away from Sauber and Perez, they played their hand very well indeed. |
