Review each driver’s race weekend in detail below and vote for who you thought was the most impressive driver.
For your consideration
Here are some of the drivers who impressed me during the Brazilian Grand Prix weekend:
Mark Webber – There’ve been plenty of occasions this year where he wouldn’t have been close enough to Vettel to inherit a win, but he was on better form in Brazil.
Sebastian Vettel – Still finished a solid second despite having to nurse his car home.
Fernando Alonso – Hounded Button early in the race and passed the McLaren, but had to surrender the position later on.
Adrian Sutil – Ended his season in style with an excellent sixth place, passing Rosberg on the way.
Kamui Kobayashi – Didn’t qualify well but took a vital ninth place under pressure to keep Sauber ahead of Toro Rosso in the constructors’ championship.

Adrian Sutil gets my vote. He was on top form this weekend and deserved that 6th place. Hope he gets that Williams seat if Force India are not retaining him. Honourable mention to Kamui Kobayashi, delivered when it mattered the most.

Can’t vote for Webber or Vettel, Webber was gifted a win and Vettel’s car didn’t work..
Alonso very nearly got it for that superb pass on Button, but since it didn’t hold till the end of the race, it’s sort of nullified..
Sutil gets it for me, none of this ‘His last race’ nonsense, he WILL be in F1 next year, I’m sure of it..

@keeleyobsessed You can still vote for Webber or Vettel. It’s more about making the most of the situation you’re presented with in my opinion.

Voted for Hamilton … LOL
Anyway the last race didn’t impress me so much. Brazil hsa had much better GPs
I think Button deserves the DOTW

I voted for Button. I was going to vote for Sutil before I thought about it.
Out qualified Hamilton, on pace.
Did well with a car that had a compromised set-up for the soft tyres, (destroying them).
Was very quick on the hard tyres.
Forced Alonso to go defensive in turns one and two therefore allowing the run and for DRS to work for him.
Closing down Vettel but ran out of laps.
Sowed up 2nd in the drivers championship
Was best of the non RBRs which were untouchable again this weekend.
I voted for Di Resta when he was 6th and nearly voted for Sutil this but thought Button sneaked it.
1st Button
2nd Sutil
3rd Alonso
for me.

Another vote for Button here. The car was rubbish on the softs – but when the harder tyres went on he drove the nuts off the car!
Sutil was good and his overtake on Rosberg impressive – so he gets my 2nd place DOTW…..

I voted for Sutil. All the rumours seemed to be saying that Force India will drop him for next year but he showed them what he can do.

Suitil for me, under pressure for a drive but he delivered! No other driver stood out for me, too many already on their holidays…

Have to go with Sutil on this one…

wow didn’t realize sutil would be leading this one! Nice

Sutil for me. Soild over-take on Rosberg and a strong finish. Especially given the uncertainty over his future in the team.
