Not the worst race of the season but not the best either. A few good battles down the field but I really couldn't get into this race. Maybe I'm Grand Prixed out? 5

If Lewis had got by him yes I agree. I think Lewis was just going to win this won anyway, he was on a serious mission this weekend

Not so sure. Vettel just looked very fast, even after just one corner and with a flat tyre.

5, it was a good start. It was an OK race but flattered to deceive towards the end. This was so of Alonso who always seemed within striking range of Hamilton but never did make an approach on him in the end.

Vettel would have just driven away again. It was better without him!

Button with a properly running car might have made it more interesting though.

I must have fallen asleep after maybe lap 30, woke up about lap 48ish. Never a good sign.

4 out of 10 for me.

7. Had a best of the rest interest factor, with Vettel going out. Good action albeit rather artificial with the overtaking and then taking the place back again at the DRS zones.

Pretty good, but not edge-of-the-seat stuff. I give it 7.

Would it have been a better race with Vettel in it. Probably, because I think Lewis would have taken the race to him today.

Would it have been a better race if Jenson hadn't had the KERS problem? Maybe.

Would it have been a better race if Webber had not had a slow pitstop? Probably not.

5 for me, not particularly exciting, only thing of note was the battle between jenson and mark.

I made soup mid race, it was grand!
