Ban him during the races, but allow him to post videos anyway.

Did we ever see what happened between Perez and Sutil?

Good drives from Di Resta & Buemi, solid from Vettel - doing what he has to do.

Button though.

Solid 8, intense first couple of laps, slightly action-less mid race but livened up again towards the end.

Utterly anonymous race for Petrov, forgot he was there.

I agree: 8 for me.

how on earth can Lewis NOT have seen di resta, from the onboard that is difficult to believe.

Drivers sit low and can't see to the side because of the high cockpit edge. If he had waited for them all to get past they would have still needed to go onto the grass (even more). So the penalty was a bit unnecessary I thought. Di Resta had enough place to get through.

He probably just wasn't looking that way. I don't think he means he "couldn't" see him, but more than he "didn't" see him.

Well no. di Resta didn't know he'd have space - there was a car spinning in front of him. It's easy to say "theres a cars width left", but you don't know that when its happening. Lewis didn't plan that move to leave a space either, that was just a coincidence.

I believe it was a mistake from Lewis, but it was still penalty worthy. Safety is not an option.

Didn't realise how big an explosion it was. That could have been horrible.

Pretty sure that was a KERS battery. It had electrical sparks when Heidfeld was getting out, and it was in the right area.

Has to be Button, he almost makes it look accidental but there's something about these kind of conditions he excels in.

Special mention to Ricciardo for a great race, beating his teammate and one of the Virgins.
