Well here's mine in order of preference :-

1. Kimi - yeah, I agree. Clearly driver of the day. He just seemed more settled in his car rather than his teammate. Could he have won here today - possibly? Great to see him back on the podium. Drove a superb race.

2. A bit more tricky to pick - but I'm going to give it to Bottas. He had the third fastest car today - and managed to keep it in front of Vettel's Ferrari. A good mature race for him. Just a shame that he hasn't got a faster car.

3. Hamilton. Got pole and well - he won the race. Was under a bit of pressure towards the end, especially with the brake issues, but kept it together and won.

4. Rosberg. Showed some fire today - or should that be "sparks". His overtakes on the Ferraris were superb. We don't often see him attack other cars(although he did pull some moves on Schumi, when he was his teammate) - so it shows there is still some fight in him.

5. Riccardio. Mainly, for managing to get that terrible car to 6th and surviving a BBQ - but then he is Australian and likes that sort of thing.

Well, I've been pretty critical of Raikkonen over the past couple of seasons, but he deserves that one. Thought Bottas did pretty well too.

I went out on a bit of a limb this week: Bottas. His defence against Vettel was the bit of the race that gripped my attention the most.

Probably won't be one a choose too often this year, but has to be Kimi.

"cmon get that mclaren out of the way" haha
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EEHo9iycTb8
He got to lap Alonso again this race

Rosberg pulled off the standard DRS overtakes and consistently ran whoever he was overtaking nearly off the circuit every time - something that no one in GP2 had to do. But he was still slower than Lewis throughout the race.

I'd have gone for Kimi, but seeing Rosberg finally get angry and use the car as intended means he gets my vote. Plus he had the best sparks.

It's fair enough that Rosberg's overtakes were worse than most make of it (we're all stunned he actually passed cars around him!)

Kimi surely. Bottas, Ricciardo and Perez also did well. Oh, and the one McLaren to race was actually good!

I had decided during the pre race show that Kimi would win this race, he came close to pulling that off ..
Great drive by the Kimster ..

Kimi with Rosberg as a close second. I liked the aggressive, but successful passes made by Rosberg.

I voted for Will Stevens!

Well why not? He deserves some encouragement, and he finished in a Marussia, and they need some recognition too.

Gave it to Bottas for a masterly defence against finger-boy......

Would have given it too Kimi if he'd managed to crack a smile......

Toss up between Kimi and Bottas.

My friend who doesn't know much about F1 was shouting at the TV when Kimi wasn't pitting (I explained the strategy to him), and I was growing frustrated, too.

Can't believe he made it work!

BIG shout out to Bottas, too.

Raikkonen had a great race. His second stint on the mediums but keeping the same pace as the Merc's who were running the softs was amazing.

Keep up the good work Kimi!
