Impressive weekend for Bottas. Very well deserved. His mechanics probably stole a lot of magic from Maldonado’s side of the garage…

I’m tipping a Bottas win for Driver of the Weekend after seeing his third-fastest-lap which represents just how impressive he was. Methinks as though some people are sick and tired of Monsieur Vettel’s dominance, and Bottas, Grosjean and Kovalainen probably stood out the most imho. Kovalainen not so much given his race result, but you just never know how people are going to vote!

He’s currently on over 40%, which is highest of all!
Just an idea, @keithcollantine , why not make it so that in the DOTW chart you show using a different font effect (e.g. italics), if they won by over 50% or not. Doesn’t say loads but it could be interesting to see!

This highlights how good Bottas’ drive was. All through the race I was watching his pace because I have a real soft spot Bottas and for Williams and they needed a result today. He was remarkably good. Quick on the options (he matched Alonso who was 1 place ahead of him) and did what he needed to make the prime last so that he could repel Rosberg when he started to up his pace, including allowing him to stick in that great 40.4 lap.

Now with talent in Bottas, experience in Massa, all Williams need is a fast car.

Well we already know that Williams are using the 2014 exhaust system already, and it looks like the Aero package that the team developed this weekend was definitely a step in the right direction, so all the pieces may be in place…

I have to admit, Grosjean consistent lap times are impressive..he learned from the best.
