Driver of the race: Round 9 - British Grand Prix

Who was your driver of the race?
Lots to choose from with Alonso's performance for the victory one of the best of his career, Hamilton looking set for a podium before fuel problems caused him to drop back to Massa and a thrilling last corner. It was a great performance by Massa as well in the second Ferrari, he was pretty fast all weekend and looked to be back on form again, maybe he can challenge at the front next time out in Germany just like last season.
Sergio Perez had a career best finish to take seventh after showing solid race pace throughout. Michael Schumacher was very fast as well and if not for the stop and go penalty he would have finished in the top five. Jamie Alguersuari took another points finish even though he dropped out of qualifying in Q1.

Oh, forgot to say my driver of the race was Alonso. Thought it was going to go badly for him when Hamilton went past him at Copse, but in the end he stormed ahead. Honorable mentions for Schumi and Perez too.

No probs

It's a tuff choice, Fernando had a very good race and got himself in the position to capitalize on the red bill pit stop mistake and then drove on into the distance.

Schumacher had a great race the Merc is looking faster, and even after the stop go he got himself into the top ten.

Massa also had a good day at the office, he is clearly a no. 2 driver and was disadvantaged by the team more than once and was unlucky to miss out on the place to Lewis.

Alguersuari finished well and had a good race not bad at all considering he missed out on Q2. Oh and Perez also had a great race up invthe points

I'm gonna vote for Schumacher. He had a good race, one of his best so far but he does need to cut out the mistakes.

It was a tough choice - no real stand out drive.

I Hope theres drizzle in Spa. Watch out for Schumi!:o

I can see the logic behind it. He finished and kept it on the track from what I saw. Not bad for your first race. And the car is rubbish so we can't expect much more.

TBH I was going to vote for him as well or just not vote but in the end just voted for Alonso the winner. No real outstanding drive imo.

Alonso wins this poll I think.
Top driver and top man.

Top driver no doubt about it, he has however a tendency to throw his toys out of the pram every so often though!

Abu Dhabi last year was unreal stuff by Alonso. Giving out to a driver you can't overtake...I remember the time he accused Massa of driving into him on purpose too (although he apologised for that). Top driver, probably the best driver on the grid...I just don't like the toys being thrown outta the pram though.
