Default Malaysia GP Driver of the Race
Kubica

Trulli

Kimi pit passing Massa has become predictable and tiresome

Perhaps not driver of the GP, as markabilly says, but my input for driver of the year so far is Nick Heidfeld.
Joint 2nd after two races is great, and without a bad first 5 corners in Malaysia, and setting a fastest lap late on, NH could have been on the podium with Kubica.
I predict this partnership if continued next year could win the championship - what about other views?

i would say it is kimi, he outlasted what was a two man race between him and massa. i guess trading fastest laps lap after lap with your teamate had to be grueling. once massa saw kimi emerge ahead of him after the first round of pitstops, mentally he probably checked out.

jarno, hekki and kubiza were impressive as well. too bad hamilton had that miscue during his stop.

Kimi - he simply did what was required, going fast when necessary, and drove a faultless race.

Reminded me of SchM.

Like Hamilton in the last race it has to be Kimi this time, he was faultless.

Kimi for his consistent quickness vs. Massa and then backing off to save the engine when Massa went off.

Webber for showing Lewis how difficult it can be to pass in F1!

come on, clearly the best car for this track and not for Mac, so Kimi should have won. so it has got to be someone other than him who did something special.

AS to championships for Beemer, they will need a driver with some special racecraft, and neither Kube nor NH has shown that to date, so we will have to wait. But the car is clearly there, waiting for someone to take it to the max

I have to say it is Jarno Trulli. Raikkonen and Kubica had excellent races too.

A few great performances, but Trulli's 4th place cannot go unnoticed, a top job from the experienced italian

i'd have to agree..... and also Kubica for threading the needle early in the race to end up 2nd.

I'm giving it to JT.
His defense of p4 in the last two laps of the race was almost as exciting as the first lap!

Too True,

He pushed hard when he needed and cruised the rest of the way..

Well done to Jarno, Finally some results for all of the hard work he has put in at Toyota.

Kimi, for sure. Although Trulli and Webber had great performances. It's a pity Sato held up Webber, costing him sixth though.

Very tempting to give it to Kimi, however Kubica DID pass 2 cars in one move!

Honorable mentions in order:
JT
FA
MW
HK.

Kimi - as they say, flawless victory. Webber deserves a mention, too, as he held Hamilton (on track) and Alonso. Kubica also drove very well, but for me Kimi is undoubtedly the driver of the race.

I had to say that Kimi is the driver of the day. He put in impressive fastest laps to overtake Felipe. Though he should stop making fastlaps when the race is already over... that can eventually cost him a failure some day!

Trulli and kubica had great performances today too.
