5. Plenty of controversy, not that awesome than other races.

Don't particularly like the circuit, but the race had its moments A variety of strategies, although the VSC and SC allowed some people a better result than they would otherwise have had.

Still found it interesting enough......6

gave it an 8. lots to get excited about. yelled at my TV a few times, amazing crowd and controversial. probably in more of a sideshow sort of way but i had fun watching.

plus they kept the season going on for another race at least...which i suppose could also be a bad thing.

some very very good post race interviews too.

Well with out doubt those last few laps took this race from a very low figure but the lack of actual overtaking still very disappointing so gave it 5

Very boring, but was happy to not see a bunch of DRS passes. I liked drivers having to take risks to overtake. But the messiness of 'what is a legal overtake?' ruined a lot for me. Plus, drivers skipping chicanes unpunished, and/or punished was a nightmare to try and explain to my friends...

GRAVEL, PLEASE!

Yeah, to some extent I agree with that. It's good to see a driver have to work for an overtake - not just breeze pass, which sometimes happens with DRS.

I do think that they're going to have to look at redesigning the first corner - so as to punish a driver for going off.

I am going for a 6. It was a pretty dull race - but the last couple of laps livened things up. Max's attempt on Nico, then the tussle with Vettel, then Mr. Vettel using the sort of language that you would hear in a Scorsese film and telling Charlie Whitling to **** himself, then Riccardio and Vettel tangling, a mix-up on the podium and then the podium getting changed the day after.

As with everyone else,it was a procession,apart from the first lap and the last possibly three!I am £40 a month richer having tried to bin Sky F1,they also removed the HD bit as it is now offered as a freebie with HD +.But Channel four is so much better,with excellent presenters,who liven up an otherwise boring race.I much prefer them ,even Ben Edwards,to the lot on Sky who need pensioning off.DC is much better than either Damon Hill or Martin Brundle,especially when teamed with Mark Weber.Even KC is great in the pits over the rather patronising Kravitz.I ended up having tried to alter the Sky Package for over 2 hours,then binned it completely,and do not miss it at all,having bought the Clarkson Firestick!!!
