out of 10 you bastards Hamilton - Rosberg - Ricciardo - Vettel - Bottas - Alonso - Raikkonen - Grosjean - Perez - Hulkenberg - Button - Magnussen - Massa - Kyvat - Maldonado - Gutierrez - Sutil - Bianchi - Chilton - Ericsson - Kobayashi - Vergne -
Hamilton - 9 Pole and race win again but was put under pressure today Rosberg - 8 Matched Hamilton but still not good enough to beat him Ricciardo - 8 Very solid weekend again from this promising Aussie Vettel - 9 Hard to judge his weekend as a whole, but fantastically aggressive race to get 4th from his lowly grid position. Bottas - 8 Williams strategy held him back and was a sitting duck to Vettel at the end. Alonso - 7 Took far too long to get past Kimi Raikkonen - 7 Better weekend all round. Had Alonso covered right until the end. Grosjean - 9 Finally got a result. The car looks evil! Perez - 8 Beat Hulk again Hulkenberg - 7 Beaten by Perez Button - 6 Got into Q3, but anonymous after that. Magnussen - 6 Didn't do much wrong, but where is the pace? Massa - 5 Will revise if I hear he had a car issue during the race, but just went backwards Kyvat - 6 Quieter weekend for him Maldonado - 2 Quali crash and another race penalty after showing potential in the FP's. Are his millions worth it? Gutierrez - 5 Sauber and drivers nowhere Sutil - 4 See above, but Sutil should be beating Gutierrez. Race seat under pressure from a lady in 2015? Bianchi - 6 Good race, but behind Chilton on the grid Chilton - 6 Very good quali and rudely barged off at turn 2 by his teammate. Ericsson - 5 meh Kobayashi - 5 meh Vergne - 5

Hamilton - 9 (short a ten by missing fastest lap) Rosberg - 8 (close, but missed pole and failed to capitalize when it was in his hands ) Ricciardo - 8 (Solid drive again. The kid's good) Vettel - 9 (Great drive... Would have been the best of the rest if not for poor luck management) Bottas - 8 (Brilliant qualifying, solid race) Alonso - 7 (Naff car, not his usual drive around it though) Raikkonen - 7 (had the upper hand for most of the weekend... must keep it up) Grosjean - 8 (Great qualifying... did all he could) Perez - 7 (all you can do behind the big boys) Hulkenberg - 7 (see above) Button - 4 (Poor. Car has the best power unit in the field, but languishing) Magnussen - 4 (see above ) Massa - 4 (Not in the same race as Bottas. Car issues or Massa issues? ) Kyvat - 5 (don't recall much) Maldonado - 0 (if I could give negative, I'd put him on minus 10, 000,000. Bring on Haas buying out Lotus and sending him packing. It'll save the Venezuelan taxpayer a few quid to boot) Gutierrez - 6 (bonus point for beating Sutil) Sutil - 5 (Meh) Bianchi -5 (mixed it up a bit... not too shabby) Chilton - 6 (One bonus point for qualifying) Ericsson - 5 (don't recall much. Qualified ahead of Koby though) Kobayashi - 4 (must do better) Vergne - 5 (was he in the race? Don't remember)
Hamilton - 9 (Under pressure from the supposed average team mate, but got the job done) Rosberg - 8 (Close, missed pole and failed to capitalise on the nervy Lewis ) Ricciardo - 8 (The best he could get and could probably have kept the Mercs honest if he hadnt have got stuck behind Bottas) Vettel - 8 (Best showing todate, great overtaking but under prressure from his rising teammate) Bottas - 8 (Brilliant qualifying, solid race - where was his team mate) Alonso - 7 (As expected and used undercut and strategy to beat team mate)) Raikkonen - 7 (Much better but strategy comp by being with Alonso on track) Grosjean - 9 (Great qualifying... did all he could) Perez - 8 (Beat his highly rated team mate) Hulkenberg - 7 (Not his best day) Button - 7 (Outqualified the car, poor start and hold up in the pits cost him a points finish - The car is a dog again!) Magnussen - 6 (Outqualified but raced better after erratic start - as above the car is a dog ) Massa - 4 (Not in the same race as Bottas. Car issues or Massa issues? ) Kyvat - 5 (don't recall much) Maldonado - 2 - Is there anything he hasnt hit in his F1 tenure? Gutierrez - 6 (At least looked like he was in a race after a good start) Sutil - 4 Bianchi -5 (Usual) Chilton - 5 (Better showing) Ericsson - 5 Kobayashi - 4 Vergne - 4
Hamilton - 9.0 - Very good but not perfect Rosberg - 7.5 - must try harder Ricciardo - 9.0 - Very good but car to good to show anything Vettel - 8.5 - Initially very impressed, but looking back car was way faster than all but Merc. Did well considering the problems though Bottas - 8.5 - Very good, did well to battle Ricciardo at start Alonso - 7 - Middle of the road drive Raikkonen - 7 - Same as above, strange strategy Grosjean - 8.5 - Car issues galore, well played Perez - 8.0 - Meh, but good meh Hulkenberg - 7.5 - less good meh Button - 5 - Back to 2012 setup problems Magnussen - 5 - same as Button Massa - 5 - What went wrong Kyvat - 7 - erm? Maldonado - 4 - Smashy smashy Gutierrez - 5 - ? Sutil - 5 - ? Bianchi - 6 - What happened in quali? Chilton - 6 - race pace? Ericsson - Kobayashi - 6 Vergne - N/A - not enough to tell
Hamilton - 8 - seemed to struggle and was irritated Rosberg - 8 - bad start and Qualy cost him Ricciardo - 9 - the podium he deserved Vettel - 9 - did well but the RB10 is quicker than the rest and DRS assisted nicely. Bottas - 9 - solid job, best of the rest Alonso - 8 - had to work this time to beat kimi Raikkonen - 8 - much better Grosjean - 9 - Hes back! Perez - 8 - good work against his team mate Hulkenberg -6 - not the hulk we know Button - 7 - quiet day Magnussen - 7 -same Massa - 5 - Bad job Kyvat - 5 didnt see him Maldonado - 2 Well done Maldo, who will you smash into next week? Gutierrez -6 - better car but more work to do Sutil - 5 - too fat Bianchi - 7 - great work Chilton - 7 - same Ericsson -6 - got maldo'ed Kobayashi - 5 - the car was shocking Vergne - 5 - quiet day not seeing the spark that would give him a RBR drive, possible waste of a seat
AUTOSPORT says :- Hamilton - 10 Rosberg - 8 Ricciardo - 9 Vettel - 9 Bottas - 8 Alonso - 7 Raikkonen - 7 Grosjean - 8 Perez - 7 Hulkenberg - 6 Button - 5 Magnussen - 5 Massa - 4 Kyvat - 5 Maldonado - 3 Gutierrez - 7 Sutil - 5 Bianchi - 7 Chilton - 6 Ericsson - 5 Kobayashi - 5 Vergne - 6
Seriously? I agree with a lot of the ratings there in autosport and see cases for a few, but struggle to see why Gutierrez gets 7, he was just very, very slightly less anonymous than usual, which isn't much achievement.
