These Awards throw up a fair bit of controversy each year.
I think the truth is that it is actually very difficult to pick six finalists each year. Not because there isn't plenty of good talent out there, there is, but because there really aren't anything like six possible standouts to select each year.
Each driver has a chance going into the tests but, this year was no different to most.
Zamperelli and Blomqvist were always unlikely to win, for various reasons, and Bernstorff and Malvern were outsiders.
That only left Lynn and Rowland and when (as F2 staffers blabbed) Lynn, under pressure to improve his performance, shunted the Super FPA car it was really all over.
