Toro Rosso - they knew before hand that the early season was crucial. Obviously didn't anticipate others going all the way. I would'nt want to be in that debriefing. Should gave been 5th and 6th. 9th and 10th would have been the same with last years engine.
Mclaren just because

Palmer: He didn't do a bad race, but his constant blocking can lead him to a very bad reputation.
Toro Rosso: Such a good car can't finish at these places. Big waste today.
Gutierrez: For me, he's the one to blame in this crash. (To be honest, I consider him as not deserving a F1 seat)

Ferrari had the victory but didn't played the strategy very well

McLaren still must work better to improve, too weak

Ferrari - wrong strategy

Toro Rosso - Always pit your lead driver first

Force India - much promise in testing, invisible all weekend.

Torro Rosso: threw away a 5-6 finish with stupid strategy
Mclaren: Button was lapped even though the field got bunched up halfway through the race, pathetic car once again. Even Haas has a better car
Massa: just let everyone pass him, didn't put up any fight.

Verstappen, too much moaning and bad moves

STR for messing up the pit stops
Verstappen. Stop being a little bitch and just do your thing. Which is enough
Hamilton. Cocked up start thus giving away a easy win.

Ferrari for strategy blunder and unreliability issues.
Williams for not improving from 2014 and 2015.
Sauber for becoming even worse.

Good point. Especially during crashes as well - Rosberg's tyre failure at Spa last year drew a lot of attention on mainstream media/forums because they had the graphics on, and it was clearly a 200mph failure, not just an extrapolated figure from some journalist.

The Ferrari votes here seem harsh to me, people seem to consider it was an easy and straight win if not for the red flag. I don't think it was, Mercedes is still too far ahead in pure pace, they'd have handled it.

I only voted for Verstappen who stood out. While I understand where he comes from and the frustration after starting 5th on the grid, it's disappointing after all the professionalism he showed last year.

Verstappen: it's ok to be mad when pitstops go wrong, but to continue nagging about it like that was just childish behaviour. Like a little kid that didn't get a cookie. He should remember he said "no" last year when asked to let Carlos through

Torro Rosso: how on earth can you get only 3 points after such a good qualy and good race pace?

Ferrari: again weird choices made during the race, and again problems on Kimi's car...
