BBC COMMENTATOR MARTIN BRUNDLE'S VIEW

"Pastor Maldonado's sole 10th place makes him the worst performing driver in the history of the Williams team.

MALDONADO STATS & FACTS Team: Williams Team-mate: Rubens Barrichello Nationality: Venezuelan Born: 09/03/1985, Maracay Grand Prix debut: N/A

"The car hasn't been great, and he was running very well in Monaco before contact with Hamilton.

"He has shown good speed on occasions but he's very lucky that he has significant Venezuelan funding behind him.

"Providing that continues to be the case, a Renault-powered 2012 Williams equalised by the banning of blown-exhaust systems should give him a better chance."
