Nobody has mentioned Piquet yet. Not driver of the day by a long shot, but managed to finish 10th, about 10 seconds down the road from Alonso, so not too bad. Let's see if he's genuinely improving, or if it's too little too late.

Best luck to him! The poor kid looked downbeat yesterday, to put it mildly, but his battle with Rubens showed that there IS fire in him.

Can't look past the race-winner Button. I feel Brawn wasn't unbeatable today, but Brawn's strategy worked way better than the one of their closest rivals. Toyota ran too long on harder tyres. Vettel was held up during both 1st and 2nd stints. Button got the possibility to get a clean race with a proper strategy and managed to use it in his favour perfectly - kudos to him! World Champions Hamilton and Räikkönen drove a great race too, I reckon.

As much as the guy has fraked me off recently - Lewis. Aggressive and on it all race long.

[MADwanker]

I think Button and Brawn had a faultless race today in a car that was probably not the best out there or even 2nd. The RB were at least as good and the Toyota had the edge on pace. However, Jenson and Ross owned that race in a display not seen since the Ferrari heyday.

Great drive from Lewis and Kimi did well to get the Ferrari in the points. I'm not coninced it is such a bad car but at least they broke their ducks.

Big to Toyota who should have ruled that track today though.

Button put himself in the right place and capitalised on others, drove a faultless race and passed his way into position to boot, great drive

It was so hot I burnt my bum why was this not from lewis

I have to say Button for a great drive. He was solid, didn't make errors, overtook Hamilton and generally did a very good job.

Honourable mentions for Lewis, Fisi, Bourdais and Piquet.

[RilmAlime67]

Button.

He passed Vettel in the first lap. Vettel had to settle for second.

Bunsen!!Light em up fella!!

You guys seem to forget that Brawn was the wiliest fox in the pits, and still is.

Look at the number of points in front his name again.... yes, that's right. It's a big ZERO.

Head to head quali: 22-0

I'm pretty certain I could have achieved the same results driving that Renault.

Yes, and we all thought it's Schumacher's magic.

Don't get me wrong, I don't want to take anything away from MS. I think he was a great champ. But, I think all those years, we gave too little credit to Brawn. He is clearly a mastermind of strategy.

Held up Webber for the entire race....

At least he kept it on the track this time though.....

It was seen only the week before with a RBR One Two.

I'm not forum stalking I promise!

But I agree. Button, Lewis and a mention to Kimi.....

[Fiesialenp]

Kimi. For the first time in a long while he looked like the Kimi of old. His race with Glock was a great example when Kimi was stuck with the harder tire on an inferior car, but stayed ahead of Glock on the super-softs in a car with the speed to qualify on the front row. Best race from Kimi in a long time and I imagine the most you can get out of this year's Ferrari. Besides, he actually led the race (during pitstops, of course) and how many times can you say that for a Ferrari this year?

Button did what he should do with a superior car and Ross Brawn calling the strategy. A very good race, but not the best drive of the race!

[WapSaibiar]

Same here. Somehow Jenson is a loser for getting first and Vettel is a one trick pony for getting another deserved podium.

Jenson Button.

He drove an outstanding race, didn't make a mistake. Lucky with the battles behind him, as do feel we were deprived of a great last 10 lap battle between Vettel and Button if Vettel hadn't been held up behind Trulli when he was on the super softs in his second stint.

But that was Red Bull and Vettel's doing, not a criticism of Button - who done what he had to do.

Whilst on the surface Trulli looked poor, in comparison to Glock, he also did a sterling job and should be complimented.

Piquet also had a good race, moving up 5 places through sheer good racing and speed. If you watched the F1 Forum, we had a good insight into Webber's first lap on board, where we see Piquet up ahead doing some very good wheel - to - wheel racing.

Whilst I don't think Piquet deserves to be in F1, I can't help but feel sorry for the guy, and would like him to succeed, so it was good that he had a strong race.

I used to know him a teammate killer, this year would be a tough season to retain the degree.
I placed my hope much on him especially when he had opportunity to drive BMW, unluckily BMW didn't extend his drive and had to drive for williams, and now RBR.
Driver like him is free to alter drive from a place to different place wherever it is beneficial...
