Petrov

The Russian recorded his first points in the Grand Prix for a 7th place. Above all, he displayed a fine fighting spirit and has even allowed the luxury of more than Michael Schumacher. Chapeau!

Rosberg

Heading for 17 laps in for a good strategic choice - it has retained its 'slick' - Nico demoted due to a small error which benefited Button. In the end, it goes up for the 2nd time in a row on the podium and moved up to 2nd place overall.

Alonso

The Spaniard overcame five passes the pits - including a drive-through penalty for early departure - to finish 4th. He has used every opportunity, even exceeding that of his teammate in the access road to the pits to glean points that could prove valuable in the end.

Kovalainen

His choice early in the race to keep the tires 'slick' when many drivers shod the 'inter' has paid off. Qualified in 21st position, the Finn managed to finish the race in 14th place, not without being victorious in a battle with Hulkenberg.

Red Bull

The hangover after the parade doubled Malay and qualifying. All wrong strategy, with RB6 very sensitive to changes of grip. Yet it was the specialty of Vettel. 1 of 4 converted pole into victory. Not a pace of champions.

Massa

Anonymous testing, it has been the law of Alonso in the race by losing to what looked like an ultimatum. He discussed an extension with Ferrari until 2013 and did not want to be in the wrong role. Almost label N.2.
