5 ... if only for Lewis' "I can't drive any slower" comment ... another fantastic advert for Pirelli ... who should get only some of the blame... just following the orders they were given for this season ...

Superb effort by Ferrari and the Lotii ... poor old Mr Lettuce... can't take a trick...
 
Since it has closed the gaps in the WDC and was a reasonable tactical race it would get a six, but it has an extra point for Massa being on the podium. There have always been reasons why drivers have not raced flat out for the whole race since F1 began, at the moment it's tyres.

It wiped the smile off the face of a certain team principal as well. :)
 
Alonso won and for once Red Bull got truly thrashed and it makes it more exciting for the championship

Other than that even with DRS - the problems with the tyres did not help but then Ferrari and Lotus managed to cope better than the rest
 
Sixer. Certainly wasn't terrible, but nothing overly spectacular.

Pity that we endured a three week hiatus before Barcelona. Monaco can't come soon enough.
 
Fernando overtaking Kimi and Lewis round the outside of turn 3 and such a commanding victory for Ferrari over Lotus and Red Bull is worth more than a measly 5 or 6 points. The tyres are crap and DRS is a flaming joke but the reality is that that race had more spectacle than any race held in Spain over the last two decades.

I gave it 7.
 
How did they actually think that chican was going to work?

It's a tight entry going into it, and a one way car going through it, add to that you can't get much acceleration out of it due to it being so tight and always clunking the massive kerb.

The final turn used to be massively fast, it was not then and is not now tight on exit. It has been reduced to an acceleration zone. The chicane that precedes it was introduced in response to the events of the 1994 San Marino GP at Imola and turns that fast being deemed to be unsafe. The changes were never supposed to promote anything other than safety and seem to "work" in that regard.
