The races for the two Mercedes were not easy: after a first-lap contact with Romain Grosjean, Nico Rosberg saw his race end in an accident where he collided with Narain Karthikeyan's HRT, which was already moving slowly due to damage; for Michael Schumacher, a puncture caused by debris prevented him from scoring points. The German team now sees Sauber closing in to 12 points in the battle for 5th place in the constructors' standings.

Scuderia Toro Rosso did not put all its eggs in one basket this Sunday in Abu Dhabi, which earned them a point: Daniel Ricciardo was able to take advantage of new Soft tires, fitted during the second safety car intervention, in the final laps to fend off Michael Schumacher, overtaking Jean-Eric Vergne, who had taken advantage of the first neutralization to change his tires for the first time.

While they were ahead of Fernando Alonso on the grid, the Asturian ultimately overtook the two McLarens, which were not in harmony with the Soft tires during the first stint of the race. The pace improved after the single pit stop, where Lewis Hamilton had to change steering wheel, finishing 4th despite a constant attack, and after which Jenson was held up behind Romain Grosjean, on a different strategy, for a final 5th place.

The Red Bull-Vettel recital continues with the fourth consecutive victory for the Austrian-German association, the third while leading every lap. This success, which, apart from a few sparks flying from the RB8 of the double reigning World Champion towards the end of the race, was undisputed, marking the 150th Grand Prix win for a Renault engine. Mark Webber, on the other hand, faced KERS issues that prevented him from taking the second step of the podium, which went to Fernando Alonso.

Outside of the Top 10 in qualifying, the Force India team made a strong comeback in the race this Sunday.

Kamui Kobayashi, ultimately finishing 14th, suffered a similar fate, but he was in the role of tire wrecker during his contact with Pastor Maldonado's Williams.

As often, the Caterhams were isolated in the race, noticeably faster than the Marussia and HRT but slower than the rest of the field. The two Caterham drivers therefore fought for 17th place, which went to Vitaly Petrov, as his teammate Heikki Kovalainen suffered a KERS failure.
