Seems as though if a Ferrari wins, that's the driver of the day.
By contest, I mean the overall contest between Hamilton and Vettel and more often than not, when there is a contest like this, it tends to overshadow what ever else is going on. Also the TV coverage doesn't help. There have been many great battles and drives, further down the field, which can get very little coverage or can be completely ignored, as the TV director has tended to focus on the championship contenders at the front of the field.
