A good performance means that cars were overtaken, the car wasn't planted into a wall, and he didn't come together with another driver while performing overtaking moves.
Which is a lot more than you can say for Kimi, Vettel or Kubica. These guys didn't DNF by some random act of God, it was their own fault.
Hamilton did what he had to do, and he benefited from other people's mistakes.
Massa is the only driver I can give you credit whose result was out of his hand.
To finish first, you must first finish.
How soon after Massa and Kimi had pitted did the safety car come out?
