Bahrain GP driver ratings: One midfield star stakes claim for 2025 F1 seat
wuqiaꦑn0821.c🃏om's F1 driver ratings for the season-opening Bahrain Grand Prix.

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Max Verstappen - 10
It was🗹 the perfect start to the 🍬year for the reigning world champion. Pole position, the race win and fastest lap. A faultless display from Verstappen in Bahrain.
168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Sergio Perez - 7
Perez’s qualifying form continues to be underwhelming - as it has been for𒆙 much of his F1 career. Red Bull had a clear advantage on race day over Mercedes and Ferrari, so second was the bare minimum for the Mexican.
168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Carlos Sainz - 8
While Sainz wasn’t plagued wi෴th the same issues that affected teammate Leclerc, it was a fine drive by the Spaniard. Aggressive in his overtaking, Sainz drove beautifully to come away with a top three finish.

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Charles Leclerc - 8
Lightning quick in Q2, Leclerc was understandably disappointed not to beat Verstappen to pole. His race was curtailed by an🐻 unusual brake issue which potentially cost him challenging Perez for second.
168澳洲5最新开奖结果:George Russell - 8.5
The quicker of the two Mercedes drivers in Bahrain. Excellent in qualifying 🐟and impressive in the ea꧑rly phase of the race before an overheating engine halted his progress.
168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lando Norris - 7.5
Another mistake in qualifying for Norris cost him a possible top three sta💫rt in Bahrain. A tidy, quiet race from the McLaren driver. Sixth 🌃was probably the maximum given his qualifying blunder.
168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lewis Hamilton - 7
Poor in qualifying and fairly uninspiring in t🥀he race. Like Russell, Hamilton had to manage an overheating Mercedes power unit. The seven-time wo🌼rld champion did come alive in the closing laps - but it was a case of too little, too late.
168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Oscar Piastri - 7
Piastri was generally a step behind teammate Norris in Bahrain. However, his general race pace and♛ tyre degradation was a cle🙈ar step forward compared to many races last year.

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Fernando Alonso - 8
Given Alonso only had one run in qualifying, sixth probably flattered the Aston Martin. They weren’t in the same l꧂eague as Ferrari, Mercedes or McLaren on race day.
168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lance Stroll - 7
An impressive recovery from Stroll after he was spun around by Hulkenberg on the opening lap to come away with the꧟ fiꦍnal point.
Zhou Guanyu - 7.5
An underrated drive by Zhou, who narrowly missed out on a points finish. The Sauber looked very re⛦spectable relative to Haas an𝐆d RB in terms of race pace. If he can keep this up, a spot on the 2025 F1 grid could be a reality.
Kevin Magnussen - 6.5
While Magnussen co🐠ntinues to struggle on one-lap, he seems to come into his own on race day.
Daniel Ricciardo - 6.5
Ricciardo was simply slower than Tsunod🦄a in Ba🌊hrain. Out-qualified and out-classed during the race. He had to rely on RB team orders to get him ahead of Tsunoda.

Yuki Tsunoda - 7.5
Tsunoda should have been in contention for points in Bahr💮ain, however, ꦉa late second stop cost him track position to Zhou and Magnussen.
Alex Albon - 7
Williams were never really a contender for a top 10 finish in Bahrain as Albon continued his impressive streak of out-qualifying Sargeant a🥀t every race they’ve been teammates.
Nico Hulkenberg - 6.5
Hulkenberg was arguably the star of qualifying as he made Q3 in the Haas. But, he𝕴 chucked it away on the opening lap by colliding with Stroll, impacting his rating for this weekend.
Esteban Ocon - 6.5
The quicker of the two Alpines, whic൲h on balance, were the slowest team in꧒ Bahrain.
Pierre Gasly - 6
Not qui🔴te at Ocon’s level in Bahrai𒀰n but it’s inconsequential given their poor form.

Valtteri Bottas - 6.5
Bottas’ race was ruined after he sustained damage on the opening lap from the carnage that ensued ahead of him between Hulkenberg and Stroll. He then had a 54-second pitও stop which dropped him to the back of the field.
Logan Sargeant - 6
A returning steering wheel electronics is🎶sue dropped Sargeant to the back of the grid after a strong start. The American was running as high as 13th before the aforementioned technical gremlin.
