Hamilton weaving on the straight again... will he get a penalty post race?

Job well done, Nico. Hope people start giving him and Merc some respect now.

He made one move away from the racing line and then followed the new rule of allowing at least one car width when moving back towards the racing line. Won't be any issues with it.

Well done Rosberg, well done Mercedes.

11th to 15th to 4th, more than one could expect from that car today!

Fantastic race, brilliant win by Rosberg. Shame to see Schumacher have to retire like that.

McLaren managed to get through despite being on the wrong strategy - presumably Hamilton was reacting to Webber, Button then having to cover Hamilton. I think if they had run a two stopper then they may have been able to put more pressure on Rosberg.

Still fantastic race by most of the grid. Lots of clean overtaking. Mercedes looking after the tyres well, although I fear that the weather played a large role in this and come Bahrain and the inevitable hotter weather they may struggle a little bit more.

His tires were gone in the end, not much he can do.

Don't worry he's been wrong about pretty much every prediction he's ever made about the performance of the cars. We can carry on laughing at him even if he doesn't show his face for a little while.
