Vettel for being a whiny little cheat for once.

I'm going with Webber, he's not ready for a serious championship battle with the races like this.

Has to be Grosjean, unfortunately. When even Legard can spot that you have had a terrible race, you have had a stinker.

It was Lewis' turn to suffer today and he didn't really recover from the puncture; maybe the car was damaged. Felipe was a bit clumsy at turn 1 but showed very good pace afterward.

Webber and Maldonado also went backwards for reasons unknown. Hard to see how Vettel could be a farce when he completely demolished his team-mate.

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

I'm going with Vettel, a few years ago maybe he was this nice-guy and perhaps it's the Championship pressures, but he just seems to be a prat a lot lately, gesticulating at everyone and then his move at the end.

Maldonado and Webber had bizarre races devoid of pace as well, and Massa, Grosjean and Senna continued to be very clumsy as well, though Massa brought himself back to respectability with the remainder of his drive.

The racedirector for not throwing a safety car to clean the track in turn 1. How many flat tyres were there due to that debris? 3?

Pathetic fool Whiting, he red flag when it rains a bit but just lets them drive through razor sharp bits of debris. He's gonna kill someone this way.

Massa. For nearly taking off Alonso as well (was so surprised Alonso didn't get a puncture after driving through that mess).

Grosjean did bad, so he deserves a mention.

Tv Director. Thought he was pretty poor today.

Racing wise: Webber. Where did his pace dissapear to? Likewise Maldonado? However Grosjean was all over the place all weekend. So he gets the vote.

Massa more than anyone else, his race was ruined through his own poor judgement in the first 5 seconds while his teammate went on to win. At least Grosjean's early damage was caused by someone else. Webber deserves a mention though, pretty disappointing.

Massa for start mistake and overall poor drive.
Also Webber and Grosjean deserves mention :)

Maldonado went backwards from a promising start position, but probably due to setup for the dry more than anything, and at least he didn't run into anybody while I was watching ... Webber was disappointing too.

Massa's mistake ruined his race, while his team mate drove superbly to win ... he takes the proverbial cake.

Massa, very poor performance by him and even worse comparing to what Alonso has been doing.

Massa, for inadvertently causing a calamitous change reaction. Without Massa running into Ricciardo, Grosjean wouldn't have hit Massa, Senna wouldn't have had an issue himself and Lewis wouldn't have got his puncture. Nice one Felipe.

Grosjean, looks like he's not aware of the car that he drives, he need to be more consistent, otherwise he'll face a sack

Hulkenberg.

Being passed by two cars in two corners for the second race in a row. He's getting good at it!!!
