It could only be Vettel. He won the race, which is the name of the game. No-one else did enough to elevate themselves to DOTR.

POTR goes to Pedro Maldonado (not for the first time!).

Alonso, from 9th to 2nd, an excellent drive. I thought Button drove well and managed to get something out of that dog of a car.

I went with Alonso. Vettel dominated, but the car clearly contributes a good deal of that with the ease by which he breezed by Hamilton without DRS. I guess I'm crediting Alonso for taking his car higher than it probably belongs.

Yep, my thoughts exactly.

Class of his own Vettel. Well, he won the race totally unchallenged. Not for one second after he left the rest of the field in his wake after Eau Rouge was there ever any doubt who was going to win. But does that make it a great drive? I suppose, unlike others, he made no mistake, and it's not his fault his car was beyond the class of the field. He might as well have started at the back. But I'll still give it to Alonso.

Got to be Vettel. He can't overtake - don't you know? It was a typical Vettel performance - get the lead, build up a large gap and set those fastest laps. He was in a different race to everyone else.

Alonso gets 2nd place. Superb performance from him. He seemed to have a much fastest car now.

3rd place for Jenson and dragging that McLaren up to 6th. Didn't quite make the one stopper work, but still a top drawer job from him.

This. He drove a flawless race, Alonso's car had an improper rear-wing configuration, thereby negating the possibility of going at maximum speed. And Raikkonen destroyed his brakes.

The 2013 Belgian Grand Prix at Spa will be historically remembered as one of the most boring races of the year.

I would have voted for Vettel, but quite frankly I enjoy being told I'm racist for not dong too much.

Actually I voted for Jenson. But now I've thought about it I wish I voted for Teflonso. I forgot he started ninth.

Driver of the race, Vettel by miles! Webber had the same car - allegedly?

POTR whoever the idiot was that decided to penalize Perez for letting Vergne fall off the track next to him.

Do the stewards really play spin the wheel to decide penalties and guilt?

Difficult decision this week as the race was so dull. Alonso had to do the most work to get to his finishing position though so he gets the award from me.

Vettel is in a league of his own but that wasn't much of a surprise to me.
