I think it can only be Nico Rosberg really. Top four all drove fine, but Nico had an edge on them all.

The only person who had a bad one in the top ten was Alonso oddly enough. Button seemed to have a bad race but wound up in a great position at the end so good recovery. But Alonso seemed to be on snooze.

Di Resta for a well driven race from the back and some clean overtakes.

Rosberg for me, Vettel didn't even bother to put some pressure on him and all of them just cruised the whole race, but it was a home win with a dominant weekend nevertheless.

Rosberg. Well deserved, dominated all weekend and in the race itself showed that dominance in the restarts.

The safety car driver isn't up there so, Nico (unsung) Rosberg. Good on him.

Some real lame ass stuff from Perez, driving like that against your team mate does you no favours and then basically putting your car in a place where it is impossible for the other guy to make the corner or do anything other than cut a chicane is utterly lame

He should be penalized for the next race in my opinion

Cretinous behaviour and also very dangerous.

Monaco is a place where you drive with your head, and he drove like a karter today, complete berk

Rosberg controlled it well, but Sutil showed what you can do around the streets when you you overtake without barging people out of the way like Perez. I agree with chunder - Perez should have been penalised. Sutil for me.

Has to be Nico - the drivers have to deal with this lame tyre situation and he dealt with it well, didn't see him put a foot wrong. Great result with the synergy of family history.

Has to be Nico.....I felt Vettel really shot himself in the foot with that "2 seconds quicker than anyone else" stunt......if he could go that much quicker, even if only for a few laps, he should at least have tried to put pressure on Nico, instead od being in cruise mode all race.

Sutil for some nice overtakes.

You don't want follow-my-leader, so its good to see Di Resta & Sutil making up places. However, it always looked like Perez's race would end in tears - he was going for it, but a number of his moves could have ended in disaster.

I'm with Sutil for showing that you can overtake at Monaco. Rosberg was immaculate, but I'm afraid he had benefitted from more seat time in testing than the other drivers.

Grosjean I did consider, considering his help for the British economy in managing four crashes in three days.

Didn't Button do exactly the same thing to Perez in the beginning? There was no way in hell that corner is a 2-car corner, but Button threw it up the inside, Perez had no choice but to go through the chicane or crash. At least where Perez was doing it that is a place where you can pass, and CAN get two cars through it, rarely.

I don't think either should be penalised though. It's not Perez's fault that Monaco is so tight that almost the only way you can pass is taking another drivers line away.

They'd all do the same.

Nico was THE MAN from start to finish.

Perez and Grosjean need to be sent out of F1 back to drive go-carts.

Grosjean and Perez taking what could have been a seat for Kobayashi has irked me. Really clueless racing from those two. But Sutil needs a seat in a top team. He should take Massa's spot

Kimi for not taking Perez's over ambitious crap like everyone else did. If the old tyre bundle had of beed there he wouldn't have done it after his attempt at Button because they both would have been out!

Actually I would like to to see them remove that chicane and run straight into Tabac just like the old days, then we could have a genuine passing straight (just don't run wide!)

Nah, Sutil
