Arvid Lindblad – 7/10
His qualifying was cut short by a mechanical problem in his Racing Bulls and further power-unit changes left him starting well down the order. Recovered well to 11th and came extremely close to points.
Fernando Alonso – 8/10
Reaching Q3 for the first time this season was a big positive and he raced well enough to even get ahead of Hamilton with a spectacular move in the Aston Martin. P12 doesn’t look spectacular, but there was plenty to like about the weekend.
Franco Colapinto – 6.5/10
Alpine struggled badly in the wet qualifying session but Colapinto made a reasonable recovery. Finished ahead of team-mate Pierre Gasly and was involved in the battle with Hulkenberg that eventually earned the Audi driver a penalty.
Pierre Gasly – 5.5/10
A disappointing weekend after both Alpines went out in Q1. Made a little progress from 16th on the grid but finished behind Colapinto and never really threatened the points.
Alex Albon – 7/10
Saturday was the highlight after reaching Q3 for the first time this season and earning ninth on the grid. Unfortunately the race went the opposite way and he fell back to 15th in the Williams.
Gabriel Bortoleto – 5/10
Showed good speed before qualifying but his crash in the Audi in Q1 put him on the back foot for his home race.
Oliver Bearman – 5.5/10
A really strong Saturday to put the Haas eighth in qualifying and sixth on the grid. The race was a completely different story, though, as he tumbled out of contention and eventually finished 17th.
Sergio Perez – 5/10
Starting last because of his engine penalty made it difficult from the outset. Kept his nose clean, picked up several positions in his Cadillac and reached the finish ahead of a Williams and a Haas.
Carlos Sainz – 4.5/10
Unlucky to have his Q2 attempt interrupted by the red flag just as he switched to the intermediates, but Sunday offered little recovery.
Rafael Camara – 5.5/10
Plenty of raw speed on his F1 debut in the Haas but plenty of learning too. Reaching Q2 in those conditions was impressive, although two qualifying incidents and a difficult race ultimately left him 20th.
Lance Stroll – 4/10
Out in Q1 and never looked capable of matching Aston Martin team-mate Alonso across the weekend.
Valtteri Bottas – 4.5/10
Only 20th in qualifying before being promoted a couple of places on the grid. His race was over before it had even begun, with Cadillac retiring his car with a technical problem, so Sunday itself is impossible to judge.
