World feed rating: 7/10 – again, uninspired camera switches, delayed / insufficient on-point replays and too many HD, slo-mo eye-candy. I have no clue what happened with Rosberg and Senna, no clue what happened to Pic. Still, better than the usual Fuji TV coverage. A lot better.

Best Driver: Vettel – perfect race
Worst Driver: Grosjean
Best Team: Sauber
Worst Team: McLaren – though they limited the damage, they were nowhere today
Best Overtake: Perez on Hamilton
Best Funny- moment: First lap nutcase
Most Surprising Result: The podium
Least Surprising Result: Grosjean crashing, Maldonado scoring some genuine points
Special Mention to: Massa, Kobayashi, Webber
Race Rating: 7/10

Best Driver: Kobayashi – Outperformed his McLaren bound teammate and held off JB to take his first ever podium in front of his home crowd.
Worst Driver: Grosjean – Another clumsy first lap incident.
Best Team: RedBull – The car was lightning quick all weekend, most likely would have been a 1-2 had Grosjean not been a “nutcase”.
Worst Team: Williams – Not a particularly bad performance to be honest, but I feel they should have scored more points given how fast the car was.
Best Overtake: Perez on Hamilton.
Best Funny- moment: Brundle having to calm down Johnny Herbert during his rant on Grosjean by giving him some tea.
Most Surprising Result: Massa finishing 2nd.
Least Surprising Result: Vettel winning.
Special Mention to: Hulkenburg who thoroughly outperformed Di Resta this weekend and Ricciardo for holding off the advances of a flying Michael Schumacher.
Race Rating: 7/10

Best BBC/Sky commentator/presenter: Martin Brundle/Anthony Davidson (Seemed particularly good this week)
Worst BBC/Sky commentator/ presenter: Simon Lazenby(Doesn’t suit the job) Johnny Herbert (For his ‘pow, take that son,’ or something along those lines, because it sounded ridiculous).
Best Commentary moment: ‘He’s coming to get you…’
World feed rating: 6/10 The cameras were good I thought, especially the big pan one off the circuit where it took in the whole of the area from the degners, through the hairpin, and then all the way back around over the bridge. Otherwise, still, and always have been, fed-up with the cut to the replays of the start when the cars are closest on track, and the very last lap of the race where they missed racing because they watched Massa over the line. Makes no sense.
