168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Max Verstappen - 9

Verstappen claimed his 50th career victory at the Circuit of the Americas. It wasn’t a perfect weekend by any means as a track limits violation cost him pole position. The race wasn’t a breeze either as a recurring brake issue compromised his pace, allowing 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lewis Hamilton and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lando Norris to remain within touching distance.

Lando Norris - 9.5

Norris enjoyed another starring weekend at the Circuit of the Americas as he picked up hi♌s sixth podium in nine races. The McLaren driver extracted the most out of it across all the various sessions, even leading the race for the opening 20 laps or so. McLaren’s poor tyre degradation ultimately meant he dropped behind Hamilton - who was later disqualified for a technical infringement. 

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Carlos Sainz - 7

Given his lack of pace in Austin relative to teammate 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Charles Leclerc, Sainz was very fortunate to finish on the podium. He was given the favourable two-stop strategy - rather than the slow one-stop Leclerc was put on - allowing him to beat his teammate. Ultimately, he was slower than Leclerc all weekend which is reflected in his overall rating.&nbs🌄p;

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Sergio Perez - 6.5

Perez’s pace in Austi🧸n was acceptab𒐪le but given the close competition - Mercedes and Ferrari - he wasn’t able to fly through the field from his lowly grid position of ninth.

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:George Russell - 6.5

In terms of pure performance, it was one of Russell’s weakest weekends of the year. Never close to Hamilton’s level, he struggled particularly on the hard tyre in the ﷺmiddle of the race. Strangely, his pace at the end of the medium was as quick as Hamilton’s.

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Pierre Gasly - 9.5

Gasly enjoyed an incredible weekend in the Alpine. There’s not much more he could have got out of it given he made Q3 in both qual🌠ifying sessions - and scored points in both races. He clearly had the edge over teammate Esteban Ocon and deserves great credit with how he’s performed in his first year with the French manufacturer.

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lance Stroll - 7.5

It was a welcome return to the points for Stroll in Austin. Starting from the pit lane after a raft of setup changes 🎀following an abysmal start to the weekend, Stroll enjoyed a solid rac🐟e. It was his first points since the summer break and a tidy Sunday afternoon for him overall.

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Yuki Tsunoda - 8

Tsunoda scored AlphaTauri’s best result of the year on Sunday. While he did make th༒e most of the misfortune of others, it’s about time he’s been rewarded given the number of P11 finishes he’s had to his name in 2023. AlphaTauri had a substantial gap to the cars behind which allowed him to pit for new tyres and secure the fastest lap.

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Alex Albon - 7

Another weekend where Albon was Williams’ lead driver. He did pick up a time💯 penalty for track limits but was promoted into the points after the DSQs for Hamilton and Leclerc.

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Logan Sargeant - 6.5

Sargeant scored his maiden F1 points on home soil following the two aforementioned disqualifications. Lucky? Perhaps, but he did finish behind h𓂃is teammate on the road and ahead of some of Williams’ nearest rivals. 

Nico Hulkenberg - 7

Haas’ decision to start from the pit lane proved to be the 🐻correct one but it wasn’t enough to turn it 🍨into a points finish.

Valtteri Bottas - 6.5

Sluggish over one-lap, Bottas fared slightly better i🐼n the race, beating his teammate with the benefit of team orders, who struggled.

Zhou Guanyu - 6.5

Very impressive ♔in qualifying, Zhou struggled to convert a strong Lap 1 into𒅌 a good finish.

Kevin Magnussen - 6

Magnussen fought hard - like he always does in Austin - but struggle💯d for overall performance yet again.

Daniel Ricciardo - 6.5

Understandably, Ricciardo was “rusty” on his second comeback after five races away. He showed flashes of pace but was forced into an unschedule🤡d pit stop after sustaining front-e൩nd damage.

Fernando Alonso - 8

Like teammate Stroll, Alonso enjoyed a strong recovery drive fro꧅m the pit lane. He was on course to finish ahead of Gasly before picking up suspected suspension damage - forcing him out of the race.

Oscar Piastri - 6

It was a poor weekend for Piastri, unsurprisingly given his lack of experience at COTA. He struggled in the sprint with tyre degradation be🧜fore retiring from the race with a technical issue caused by a collision with Ocon on Lap 1.

Esteban Ocon - 6

Ocon was never at his teammate’s level in Austin. He𝔉 was then forced to retire early on due to contact with Piastri. A weekend to forget.

Lewis Hamilton - 10

There’s no doubt that Hamilton was the star of the weekend in Austin. Had Mercedes put him on a better strategy - with slightly better pit stops - it’s likely he would have been able to beat Verstappen to the win. Of course, that’s inconsequential aftꦓer he was disqualified from the race due to a techni𒈔cal infringement. However, judging his own personal performance, it was a 10/10 weekend.

Charles Leclerc - 9

Another🐼 dri𝓰ver who deserved better was Leclerc. He was brilliant in qualifying - like he usually is. Ferrari’s decision to put him on a one-stop was baffling, costing him a comfortable fourth on track Like Hamilton, it didn’t ultimately matter.
