Webber.
Although others did well (Barrichello, Kobyashi, Button,) Webbers domination under the team circumstances (for me) stamped him out as the most desrving driver this weekend. |

Button for me
and here is why after being eliminated for qualifying at the end of Q2 and therefore starting the race in a lowly 14th on the grid, he drove qith a maturity which was absoluetly brilliant to sit at home at watch |

Lewis Hamilton. He put that car in an exceptional position.
So happy for Mark Webber as well. He did everything he had to do, so credit to him. Plaudits also for: Kobayashi, Sutil and Barrichello. |

Button for going up ten places, just edging it over Kobayashi.

Special mention to Button for a nice move through the field and Sutil for making Vettel look a bit second rate in the best car in the field (including front wing).
I voted Webber ,but thinking now I should have given it to Alonso for being stiffed with a bull*#@t penalty. |

Nico Rosberg for getting a podium and driving what must have been an ill handling car after losing a bargeboard.

i thought barrichello was superb today.
he didnt get much coverage, but was staying in touch with the kubica / alonso / rosberg battle before the safety car, so he genuinely finished in his deserved position, where others were flattered after the safety car. 5th in a williams is a great result, especially at the british GP. |

Webber drove a good race... but then he had one of the two best cars in the race, so anything less than second would be a disappointment. No, Kobayashi did it for me. Again, he brought a car into the top 6 that had no right to be there.

Webber was expected to win once Vettel shot himself in the foot.
DOTD is a tough one with several guys outperforming their cars. I'll give it to Mr Rosberg. |

Mark Webber.
To perform like that in such trying circumstances shows great mental strength. |

It's a tough one this week because so many drivers drove well, But I have to give it to Webber for an outstandingly positive race at a time when he was feeling very hard done by.
The others deserving of a mention are Hamilton, Rosberg, Button, Barrichello and Kobayashi. Not Vettel, because he only recovered as he did because of the Safety Car. |

A tough one: Hamilton showed a great performance, but in the end was nothing special. Button had a really nice catch up, but then again he messed up quali. Sutil was having a fantastic drive. Webber had a faultless performance, and deserved the victory more than anybody else. Good to see him deliver such a result consindering how things are going inside RBR. But I went for Rosberg as it was Merc's first good result and he put up quite a drive considering the Merc isn't that good and kept up with Alsonso and the likes.

Not just nationalism but I've gone for Webber - head down, take no prisoners, "cop that" approach that was very impressive. Button & Rosberg were the standouts for me other than that.

Only seen the highlights (10mins) but what fantastic performances from Webber, Hamilton, Rosberg, Button, Rubens, Kobayashi and Sutil. It's unfair to make us choose only one this weekend. Oh and the circuit deserves a mention too.
Great to see Webber getting his due, an absolutely stunning performance, really aggressive at the start, which I think was a shock to Vettel. Then Hamilton swapping fastest laps in a car that really was a dog over the weekend. Nico showed Mickey-the-Shoe how to drive and at one point got FL too. Button was on another plane really. To come through from 14th to 8th was pretty good, but to be fighting for third at the end was exceptional. As has been said Rubens in a Williams was magic today only one place up the grid but very well deserved. Kobayashi drove very well to get that Sauber into the points. Sutil is really showing signs that he needs a better car. His defence against Vettel was fantastic. Very difficult but for me today it was Button for showing such class. He said he'd go out and enjoy himself and that's what he did. |

The driver who finished further up than could rightly be expected. Kamui Kobayashi.
