The Korean Grand Prix received the lowest rating for a race so far in the 2012 season.
The race saw the first one-two finish for a team this year, Sebastian Vettel leading home Red Bull team mate Mark Webber ahead of Fernando Alonso.
With an average rating of just 5.157 out of ten from F1 Fanatic readers, the Korean Grand Prix was not well-received by readers.
Not the best race of the year. No battle for the lead, not many non-DRS passes, Hamilton and Raikkonen practically out of the fight for the drivers' championship and team orders at Ferrari.

Not everyone was critical of what they saw:
I actually really enjoyed this race, some good fights, some close racing and a reasonable amount of
overtaking. Wasn't action packed but far from being totally dull.

The turf on turn 13 was quite a talking point:
Astroturf was shredding like an office carpet, that's just unacceptable.

The turf at the exit of turn 13 was rather ridiculous. They need to sort that out.

Some believed Rosberg's car took too long to remove from the circuit:
The race was really let down by the awkward placement of Rosberg's Mercedes and the extended yellow flag period.

However, others enjoyed some racing in the midfield:
The only overtaking zone on the circuit was yellow flagged and no one could overtake. That was a disadvantage to those cars with speed.

Most agreed the best racing could be seen with the drivers fighting for the final points positions:
There were some interesting battles up and down the midfield. Raikkonen and Hamilton, and of course the performance of Williams, Toro Rosso and Force India.

There were a lot of interesting battles. Hulkenberg defending from Grosjean, the two Toro Rossos climbing up and Hamilton going down.

Dizzy believed early season races have set an unfairly high precedent for the remaining events:
The crazy races earlier on where tyres and DRS where creating 80-plus passes (most of which were boringly easy to watch) have created unfair expectations of all races.

As Chris noted, there was little to commend about the latest round of the world championship:
The racing was mediocre, the track was filthy, the Astroturf was a joke and the race organisers still don't have a clue. I still don't understand why this race is on the calendar.
