i would have picked a 100 if there was a 100 to pick. Unbelievable race even if the result it's not what i wanted.

9.

It was amazing, had some dull laps after the SC, but came alive at the end.

I saved my 10 for the whole season, and this is what it was for.

This is a race you want so see back over a couple of years, like Spa 1995 or Nurburgring 1995.

This. This is the first race I voted 10 for, and that's the definition of a 10 right there. An absolutely extraordinary race.

I did say in Abu Dhabi and Austin they were fantastic races but I wouldn't rate them a 10 in case the finale was epic and I needed somewhere higher to go.

But that time has finally arrived. F1 does not get any better than this.

A word has not been invented for how brilliant that race was. But it was one, and a total, total one at that!

A race of a generation. It will go on our "best of" list alonside Brazil 03, Silverstone 03, Japan 05, Spa 98, Brazil 08 and all the other fantastic races.

The only tiny complaint you could say is we got a SC finish, which was a big shame after such a constantly amazing race to have a anti-climatic finish but before we start a debate about GWC rules being needed in F1 (kidding! :lol: ) it doesn't really matter, it didn't change the championship or the race win so I am ok with it.

Appreciate this one guys. Watch it again. Watch it a third time exclusively from the on-board channel. Watch Sky F1 if you watched it on the BBC or vice versa if you have sky. Watch it with Speed commentators, with Oooohlalala French commentary and crazy shouty Japanese commentary. It deserves many a rewatch.

So yeah, quite liked it.

Did it rain in the end? Not sure.... :p

10

I don't think I've ever seen a race where every moment has been filled with so much action, so much drama, so much overtaking, so many mistakes as that one. It always had the recipe for a classic finale with a mixed up grid but that was far from what I expected to see. This race will go down in F1 'lore just like the 1992 Hooter's 500 did for NASCAR. In fact that race reminds me very much of this one, with a battle right to the end.

Definitely one of the very best races not only in F1 but in all of racing. No way it can be given less than a 10 :D

9/10... Vettel won the Championship. Otherwise a perfect race.

9. There were (admittedly few) dull moments and the safety car was out for too long, but other than that I can't really fault it.

9.

-1 for the outcome, Hamilton's collision and the fact that Hulk got a penalty for it.

Fantastic race. :flag:
