Kobayashi
Kobayashi.
Vettel was damn good though, but I'm going to go for the guy in his second race who was as quick as in Brazil, but without the OTT heroics. Heidfeld once again was barely shown, but has had the measure quite comprehensively of the highly-regarded Kubica this weekend. |

Kobayashi. Fast in a heavy car, which could come in handy next season.

Was going to go for Kobayashi, especially when he started pulling away from Jenson in 3rd, then was going to go for Jenson himself after catching up to the back of Mark but ultimately went for Seb V.
Won the race in dominant fashion (would have won it even if Lewis had stayed in the race) and beat his team mate on the same stratergy by 17 seconds. |

Outstanding drive from Kobayashi, and I love his agressive style. Future race winner for sure.
Runner up goes to Alguersari for his admirable attempt at helpfully parking his car in the Red Bull pit. Last edited by Gingers4Justice; 1 Nov 2009 at 18:33. |

Kobayashi for me too. I wasn't sure after Interlagos whether he was F1 material, but I'll take that back after today. Let's hope we get to see what he can do over an entire season when the pressure is on.

Not sure about him? He must have provided too much excitement and interest for you.

Kobayashi,
For only the second time race conditions with the car, he was superb. Certainly put the likes of Grosjean and Alguersuari in their place. |

Kobayashi for me. The second race in a row I have gone for him. What he has done, all things considered, has been decidedly impressive.

Jenson for me, amazing how he still had a front wing at the end.

Timo who? Kobayashi outclassed his more experienced teammate Jarno "It's all your fault" Trulli and made the world champion look stupid. AGAIN!

Kobayashi for me.
Again he impressed and carried on from his great intro in Brazil. Definitely one to watch if he gets the seat next season, which looks likely. Lewis was excellent in practice and quali. Pity the lack of brakes saw him retire so early. Seb V drove really well too. Also Jensen's last few laps closing in on Mark W was great to watch. |

Kamui Kobayashi - no stage fright for him... Looks likely to get a Toyota drive too!
