Poll Out of ten - 2012 Italian Grand Prix

[mjo]

I think 8, there was some good, fair racing today.

 

[FB]

6 from me - not that exciting really but a good result for Hammy.

 

[soccerman17]

8- some great racing and some surprising and important retirements, only lacked a race for the lead.

 

[Jen]

Had to go with 8, but would have preferred 7.5 - if it had been a true 8, I wouldn't have gone and made a sandwich half way through.

 

[EvilWhippet]

I gave it a seven. Lots of overtaking throughout, nice drive at the front and an unexpected comeback charge from the might Mexican, gaining revenge for Malaysia. Tainted by another penalty I simply can't understand.

Unfortunately nobody will remember this race because ZZ TOP are releasing an album in the next couple of days.

5 from me, apart from Perez at the end, there wasn't much in the way of exciting racing..

 

[siffert_fan]

Gave it an 8, primarily due to the great drive by Perez and the Alonso/Vettel duel early on. I also think the stewards screwed the pooch by giving Vettel a drive thru. I guess at Monza, you HAVE to let a Ferrari thru without offering any resistence.

Hamilton totally dominant. McLaren clearly the best car at the moment. It will be interesting to see how the other teams rise to the challenge.

8 - excellent racing, almost everyone on best behaviour too. And Checo was superb.

 

[cider_and_toast]

5 from me. Some interesting bits but mainly Ho Hum. Good win for Hamilton and would have loved to see Perez have a few more laps totry and get in the mix.

 

[Jen]

I thought Perez was in the mix??

 

[Mephistopheles]

I gave it a 6 I can't really remember what happened now and I'm sure I dozed off at one point....

 

[Lewywo4]

Lewis's win makes it a 9 for me, and excellent passes from Perez added some drama towards the end.

 

[Brogan]

A from me I'm afraid.

I can't recall being overly excited during the race and the catastrophe that is now my FF1 just compounds it.

 

[F1ang-o]

Button out minus one..Vettel out minus one...glad to see all the media attention, mind games, crap at last race & loss of a much loved close family member did not affect LH drive from pole to VICTORY ....if anyone doubts his mindset...rock steady I'd say!
And Sergio's brilliant race was a joy....... it is mind boggling to see the Ferrari/Alonso love...in Italy
Bloody brilliant qualifying for Felipe...but always on the cards that he would have to give his advantage to his team-mate...sad.
Kimi is just one point behind LH...but he escaped the carnage at Spa.
So it's an 8 for me...

I thought Perez was in the mix??

I meant for the win Jen, he needed a few more laps to reel Hamilton in.

 

[gethinceri]

10. f1 is great.

 

[Jen]

I meant for the win Jen, he needed a few more laps to reel Hamilton in.

So the Italian should be asking for longer races not shorter.

I'm sure Perez could have done it.

 

[Fenderman]

I'm with F1ang-o except another minus 1 point because I couldn't recognise a great overtake from a "candy from a baby" one. I still hate piecemeal, Race Control dictated DRS.

Perez - driver of the day, The Ham - driver of the weekend, Button - unlucky, Alonso - lucky but good stuff as usual, Massa - better, the rest ho-hum.

 

[Andy Karter]

Great race, plenty of action and just the one long play anthem - perfect!

 

[Boyle]

9 from me. Great race, great action, and Perez's charge was immense.​
