Singapore GP driver ratings: Was Carlos Sainz's performance the best from a Ferrari driver in over a decade?
168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Carlos Sainz - 10
After an impressive weekend at 🐼Monza, Sainz went one better to deliver the best performance of his entire F1 career. Not only did he have the pace, his inꦏtellect and race IQ was outstanding to keep Norris behind in DRS range which ultimately allowed them both to fend off the two Ferraris. An incredible performance from the Spaniard in Singapore - arguably the best from a Ferrari driver since Alonso in Valencia (2012).
168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lando Norris - 9.5
It’s great to see Norris finally have a car capable of challenging for podiums on a regular basis. While McLaren lacked one-lap 💛pace, Norri♛s ran with the Ferraris and Mercedes pair on race day. Another brilliant P2 for the British driver.
168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton - 8
Hamilton was a step behind teammate Russell throughout the Singapore Grand Prix weekend. However, with a p𓂃otential 1-2 on the 💝cards, Hamilton came alive at the end of the race, and looked to have the edge.
168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Charles Leclerc - 7
Leclerc’s form continues to be disappointing by his high standards. Perhaps Sainz is performing at the peak of his powers, regardless, he was never at his teammate’s level i🌠n Singapore. He was happy to play the team game and did protect Sainz during the first stint of the race.
168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen - 8
Despite Red Bull’s struggles, the car was stillꦜ capable of making it into Q3, even though it was a handful. You can’t really fault his display in the race.
168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Pierre Gasly - 7
Gasly was c☂learly the slower of t𝄹he two Alpines in Singapore. However, he raced well, making the most of his teammate’s misfortune.
168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Oscar Piastri - 7
Piastri was unfortunate to get knockedꩲ out in Q1 due to the timing of the red flag following Stroll’s crash. The Australian recovered well from the back in the race, even though he didn’t have the McLaren upgrades. Expect a better Suzuka for him.
168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Sergio Perez - 6
Given Red Bull’s lack of pace at the Marina Bay Street Circuit, it wasn’t too surprising to see Perez struggle to make too much progress. He was clumsy in his battles 𝓰with Tsunoda and Albon - both he was at fault at.
168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Liam Lawson - 8.5
Lawson conꦉtinues to make a strong cas🐈e for him to be on the grid for 2024. He was the driver who ensured Verstappen didn’t make it into Q3
168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Kevin Magnussen - 8
Along wi✃th Miami, Singapore was Magnussen’s most competitive weekend of the year. Sixth in qualifying, followed up by a points fin𒆙ish. Impressive.
Alex Albon - 7.5
Williams didn’t expect to perform well in Singapore and they proved to be correct. However, points༺ did look to be a possibility had it not been for an inciden⛎t with Perez.
Zhou Guanyu - 6
Zhou was 0.4s off teammate Bottas in qualifying. He enjoyed a be🅷tter Sunday, finishing just outside the points.
Nico Hulkenberg - 7
Hulkenberg was a step behind his teammate in Singapore. His strate꧒gy didn’t quite work out.
Logan Sargeant - 5.5
Anot🔯her poor weekend from Sargeant, who was t༺he cause of the early Safety Car.
Fernando Alonso - 6
Alonso’s chance of points 🍬was ruined by an uncharacteristic mistake, cutting the pit entry. Even before that, he was aloof in his fight with 🍎Ocon as he struggled to get by Ocon.
George Russell - 4.5
It's hard to give Russell a fair rating for his performance in Singapore. While he did crash out on the last lap, his drive up until th𓆉en - including his qualifying performance - was breathtaking. However, in high-pressure moments, he did seem to crumble, with his ꧂drop in pace, followed by his shunt on Lap 62.
Valtteri Bottas - 6.5
Bottas got the most out of the Alfa ⛦Romeo in qualifying, out-qualifying Zhou by over four-tenths. He had a quiet race before retiring with a hydraulic issue.
Esteban Ocon - 9
𝓰Ocon was outstanding in Singapore, and deserved a big points haul. His overtakes on Alonso and Perez were stunning.
Yuki Tsunoda - 6
Tsunoda was on the wrong side of lady luck throughout the Singapore weekend. Given Lawson’s impressive performa𒅌nce, the pressure might be mounting on him.
Lance Stroll - 1
Stroll was unable to start Sunday’s race after his ༺major shunt in qualifying. Even without it, it’s likely he’d have qualified last.
