i knew everyone would have picked Nico so i picked Webber: has been good and tough in many duels and ended in front of his teammate, to me a very consistent race.

No way is it Rosberg. Under no pressure all race means he can't be driver of the day.

Grosjean/Senna/Maldonado for me!

Under no pressure? He'd never won a race, he had both McLarens hunting him down until about 2/3rds distance and he was driving a car that no one was sure was going to look after the tyres.

No doubt at all who the driver of the day was.

Nico's victory was only ensured when Button stopped for the third time and had problems. Until that moment, Button was in a good position to win the race.

I could vote on Senna but then again, he's doing fine just like I know he's capable of in normal conditions and a good car setup. Now he just needs to focus 5th and 6th positions in the next races.

For winning his very first time and not losing concentration during the race, I'll vote Nico "Britney & Barbie" Rosberg LoL!

tbh I disagree. Button reckons he would have only caught Rosberg with 2 laps to go. Without a doubt Rosberg would have eased his pace considerably in the latter stages when he knew he had it in the bag to reduce the risk of mistakes and with that in mind I find it hard it believe Button would have caught him.

Even Martin Whitmarsh has come out and said that without the pitstop issues Button probably couldn't have challenged Rosberg for the win.

I see what you say. But even if it would lack pace for Button to reach Nico in the end, he challenged Nico for a reasonable time in the race. It was not a total drive in the park for Nico.

Webber was driving beautifully so...yeah I voted for him. Lewis was also fun to watch as were the two Saubers with their moments. :D

Those who voted Petrov and Schumacher - post your reasons publicly, otherwise you'll be named, shamed and warned for trolling the polls.
