F1 Bahrain GP Driver Ratings: An unsung hero but who had a comically bad race?

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Max Verstappen - 10
The reigning world champion was🅺 the class act of the field as he started 2023 in the same man💧ner he finished 2022 with an unstoppable performance. Verstappen didn’t put a foot wrong all weekend as he easily converted pole into his first win in Bahrain.
168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Sergio Perez - 9
Perez recovered well from a bad start to fight back past Leclerc’s Ferrari but by that stage he was well adrift of Verstappen and was never in contention for the win. Nevertheless, the Mexican helped seal a perfect result for Red Bull with a strong dri𒈔ve.
168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Fernando Alonso - 10

A beast of a drivꦅe from Alonso, who fought back from a challenging first lap to charge past both Mercedes and a Ferrari on his way to claiming a best-of-the-rest be♛hind the dominant Red Bulls. Full marks for the 41-year-old Spaniard.
168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Carlos Sainz - 8
It proved a tough evening for Sainz who ultimately finished where he started as the sole-surviving Ferrar🅷i. A solid drive but Sainz will be disappointed to have missed out to Alonso late on, but did enough to keep Hamilton Mဣercedes’ at bay.
168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lewis Hamilton - 8
Fifth place was probably the best Mercedes could have hoped for going into the race, and that was exactly where Hamilton finished, even൩ if there was a slice of fortune involved. Much of Hamilton’s good work was done on a brilliant opening lap 🐲but he was ultimately powerless to keep the faster Alonso behind, despite a valiant effort.
168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lance Stroll - 10
A heroic per𓆏formance all weekend from the injured Stroll, who reached Q3 and beat a Mercedes in an impressive run to P6 despite 💧nursing a broken wrist and toe. A competitive showing considering the Canadian missed testing and only had surgery two weeks ago!

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:George Russell - 7
A sluggish getaway ultimately cost Russell. Despite being the quicker of the two Mercedes drivers at times, fall✃ing behind Hamilton meant he missed out on the preferential strategy and was undercut by Stroll’s Aston Martin.
168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Valtteri Bottas - 9
Bottas made instant progress to gain four places on an excellent opening lap. The Finn never looked back anღd was rewarded for a great race with🐎 eighth place and four points for Alfa Romeo.
168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Pierre Gasly - 9
A drive of the day contender from Gasly, who went under the radar as he recovered from a disappointing qualifying and back of the grid start to rise into the points o꧃n his Alpine debut.&n💃bsp;
168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Alex Albon - 10

Albon claimed the final point on off𒊎er with a phenomenal drive. Having capitalised on a strong strategy, Albon brilliantly held off Tsunoda’s AlphaTauri and give Williams a positive start to 2023.
168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Yuki Tsunoda - 7
Will have been frustrated to miss out on points to the slowest 🌠car of testing but i🌜t was nevertheless a solid race for Tsunoda, who comfortably had the upper hand over his new teammate all weekend.
168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Logan Sargeant - 9
Sargeant was unfortunate not to join Williams teamma🐼te Albon in Q2 but did a fantastic job on his F1 debut to finish as the highesꦛt-placed rookie.
168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Kevin Magnussen - 7
Magnussen made solid progress from 17th by running an alternative strategy from the start in what was a challenging race for Haas. Could have been in content�♉�ion for the points with a better qualifying.
168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Nyck de Vries - 6
A decent-enough second F1 debut for de Vries, though there were no points up for grabs this time around as he took 14th, having been hampered by strategy.&nb🎃sp;
168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Nico Hulkenberg - 6

Hulkenberg’s full-time return started with promise as he reached Q3 but all that good work was undone in a first-lap tangle that left him with front wing damage and saw him fall🌊 down the order.
168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Zhou Guanyu - 6
Zhou’s hopes of points were ruined by a poor start that saw him drop four spots on the opening lap. Was unable to recover but was at least able to ensure rivals Alpine didn’t pick up a bonus point 🧸by snatching the fastest lap late on.
168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lando Norris - 8
There was no reward for Norris despite a big effort in a luckless race. Hamstrung by a pneumatic issue with his engine that required multiple trips to the pitꦉs, Norris persevered in what turned out to be a data-gathering excessive for McLaren and brought his car home in 17th, two laps down.
168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Esteban Ocon - 3

It was a shocking Sunday for Ocon who equalled an unwanted record as he picked up a hat-trick of almost comical driving penalties. Retirement brought Ocon’s miserable even꧂ing t𝐆o an end.
168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Charles Leclerc - N/A
Was never a threat to Verstappen but🐼 was in a good battle for second place with the second Red Bu🍬ll of Perez until the engine in his Ferrari gave up.
168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Oscar Piastri - N/A
Unfair t🔯o judge this rookie given his race was cut short early on due to an “underlying electrical problem”.
