Hamilton - 9 - Poor in quali by his own standards, still moaning at the team even with by far the best car and makes the team let him win. And very questionable defensive manoeuvers, if that was someone else he'd have got a penalty. Rosberg - 9 - Poor start cost him a 10. Perez - 10, pretty much perfect all weekend including getting screwed over by the team Ricciardo - 9.5 - Not perfect but still great, showed his team mate how to race Hulkenberg - 8 - Poor showing by his standards but still a good drive Vettel - 6.5 - Out qualified and out raced by Ricciardo who had a 10 place grid penalty. And a spin in practice which was a rookie error. Massa - 8 - Beat Bottas yet again, poor qualifying and not getting Vettel cost higher. Bottas - 7 - Quickly becoming the guy who only has speed and nothing else Alonso - 8 - With a broken car still beat his team mate and the car was utter ****e. Raikkonen - 5 - If someone said he's a rookie I wouldn't be surprised one bit Kyvat - 6 - Where was he? Grosjean - 5.5 - Behind Maldo all race, last of the old teams, poor performance from him Chilton - 6 - Very slow but stayed out of trouble Kobayashi - 6 - Qualifying was good, race.. Not so much Maldonado - 3 - Was doing well before the crash but the crash means he only gets a 3 Bianchi - 5 - What's happened to the Bianchi we all loved? He seems to be really unlucky at start of races though Button - 8.5 - The Mclaren was nowhere this week and he was looking good for a 5th or 6th pre safety car Magnussen - 6.5 - Decent job for a rookie, but he's proved he's better than that Gutierrez - 7 - Under the radar yet again, doing a great job in a car which is nowhere Ericsson - 6.5 - Better than his previous two races Vergne - 7 - Very unlucky again, but doing great compared to his team mate if you consider he's "losing 4 tenths a lap from weight" Sutil - 4 - You used to be good! I know the car, you and everything is over weight but it's no excuse to be that far behind Gutierrez.

Hamilton - 9.5 Mucked up quali a bit but boy did he make up for it in the race Rosberg - 9.0 Good quali and had and had good race pace. Was just trumped by his team mate on Sunday Perez - 9.5 Great scrap to get third Ricciardo -9.0 Fully had Vettel all weekend Hulkenberg - 7.5 Bit shown up by his team mate for once Vettel - 7.0 Had issues but once a bit of a disappointment, hopefully just a blip Massa - 7.0 Battled with little gain Bottas - 6.5 Great quali, not so much race Alonso - 7.0 Stuck in a rut Raikkonen - 6.5 Not able to comptete Kyvat - 8.5 Good weekend Grosjean -7.0 solid weekend Chilton - 6.5 erm? Kobayashi - 7.5 seemed good Maldonado - 1.0 Danger Bianchi - 6.0 Chiltoned! Button - 7.5Went well Magnussen - 6.5 so so Gutierrez - 6.0 meh Ericsson - 6.5 Vergne - 6.0 Sutil - ​5.0
Hamilton- 9.5, Brilliant defensive driving won him the race. Rosberg- 9, Had the pace, drove fantastically but just couldn't make a move stick. Perez- 9.5, Close to flawless race and quali. Ricciardo-9.5, Showing Vettel up a little, even with his issues i don't think anybody (Vettel included) thought he'd be able to do what he has. Great charge through the field. Hulkenberg-8, Untidy in quali bit still quick. Race was solid, had issue towards end. Vettel-7, not showing the same fight as his team mate, struggling a little without his blown diffuser, needing to adapt a little better. Massa-7, Did fine, not reaching potential. Bottas-7, as with Massa. Alonso-7.5, The car is just no good. Both drivers struggling, was always going to be a weak track, car was made to look a dog. Raikkonen-6, really struggling. Kvyat- 7.5, impressive again, unlucky perhaps not to get a point, been the star turn for me so far in the first 3 races. Grosjean-7, struggling with a car that has everything turned down just so it will finish. Chilton- 7, Ok, he's not lightning quick, but even if he was in a Marussia, he'd rarely get rewards for it. Seems much more on the pace of Bianchi anway and consistent. Kobayashi- 7.5, stunning in quali at times. Maldonado- 1.5. Muppet. An occasionally super quick muppet, but an unreliable, erratic and Dangerous muppet. Wastes whatever speed he has when he shows it, pointless driver. Bianchi- 6, either off form or Chilton has stepped it up beyond belief. Probably a bit of both. Button-7.5, Unlucky race, drove well. Magnussen- 6.5, Off button all weekend. Gutierrez- 6, Better race before he was madonando'd, But i don't rate him in the slightest, think he's an awful driver who has shown nothing in F1 and was destroyed by the Hulk last year for good measure. As good as the Hulk is, there's no way he was outperforming the car to that degree. Ericsson- 5.5, not sure why he's in F1, doesn;t "have it" on what we've seen so far. Vergne- 6, underperformed all weekend. Sutil- 3.5, having a disaster with that Sauber just now, he isn't a bad driver but a little like Raikkonen, can't get to grips with it just now. Perhaps not a coincidence both are Ferrari powered?

This time, however, his defensive skills were his forte as his successfully held off his teammate on fresher tyres, thanks a safety car whittling away his lead. Some thought his quali wasn't up to scratch. Selected comments: "Had he won without the safety car, it would have been 9 due to fluffing pole." "lucky to be team-mate to Rosberg, I think he would've been penalised for some of his defensive (crowding off track) driving had he done it to someone like Alonso, and the chopping across Rosberg was a particularly stupid senseless move, I think he's showing signs of cracking under pressure already and it's ony 3 races in." "As good a drive as I can remember from him, especially considering he was on the slower tyre in the last stint." please log in to view this image Twat of the weekend (renamed for special circumstances): Pastor Maldonado (ratings ranged between 0-5) A solid, unspectacular weekend exploded in Maldonado's face this weekend, as he very adeptly managed to flip Gutierrez all the way over. Forum members were exceptionally unhappy with this awful piece of driving and it reflected in the votes. It's hard to imagine this score not being the worst scored this season. Selected comments: " Muppet. An occasionally super quick muppet, but an unreliable, erratic and Dangerous muppet. Wastes whatever speed he has when he shows it, pointless driver." "All going well until he left his brain in his pit box.........." "The guy has shown time and time again that he's a liability. " please log in to view this image Thanks to all 17 who voted, the most so far this season.
