Sao Paulo GP F1 driver ratings: Two 10/10s and one underrated midfield driver impresses yet again

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen - 10
Another near-perfect weekend from Verstappen, who claimed his 17th victory of F1 2023. The only bl💛emish on his weekend was mis🧜sing out on sprint pole after a scrappy lap.
168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lando Norris - 9.5
Norris continues to extract the most from the McLaren with two P2s at Interlagos. He was critical of his own performance yet again but in the grand scheme of things, he’s performing magnificently in the second-best car🦋.

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Fernando Alonso - 10
While Alonso was out-qualified by teammate Stroll for just the third time this year, it’s hard not to give the veteran Spaniard a perfect score for his Sunday drive. For the e🥀ntire final stint, Alonso resisted immense pressure from Perez behind, even re-overtaking him on the final lap. A masterclass in racecraft from the two-time w𓆉orld champion.
168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Sergio Perez - 7
A better weekend for Perez but given Red Bull’s pace advantage over the rest of the field (asi꧒de from Norris’ McLaren), he did underperform at Interlagos. Granted, he was unfortunate with the timing of the yellow flags in conventional qualifying but there was ample opportunity to get🍬 third.
168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lance Stroll - 8
One of Strol💟l’s better weekends in 2023. He was a♓head of Alonso in qualifying and drove a solid race to beat the Ferrari of Sainz and Hamilton’s Mercedes. Much more like it.
168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Carlos Sainz - 7.5
The weaker of the two Ferraris at Interlagos, Sainz benefitted from teammate Leclerc’s technical issue on the formation lap. Sainz drove well to finish sixth but there’s no doubt Leclerc would have been much closer to the Perez-Alonso fight had he been in the r𓄧ace.

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Pierre Gasly - 9
You can make a strong argument that Gasly’s 2023 campaign is the most underrated. He continues to score big for Alpine, and Brazil was no🥀 different.
168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton - 8
It was Mercedes’ worst race weekend in over 13 years - according toꦗ Toto Wolff - aꦜs they were genuinely out-paced by Alpine in the race. Poor tyre degradation combined with a lack of rear-end stability meant Hamilton couldn’t finish higher than eighth.
168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Yuki Tsunoda - 8
On the surface, Brazil was a fantastic weekend for Tsunoda and AlphaTauri. Points in both races meant they closed the ga𒅌p to Williams. However, Tsunoda will be kicking himself for that brief off at Turn 10 - potenti🍨ally costing him seventh ahead of Gasly and Hamilton.
168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Esteban Ocon - 7
Forced onto a three-stopper, Ocon finished 14 seconds behind hi🏅s teammate at the chequered flag.
Logan Sargeant - 6
With Albon out of the race early on, it was hard to get a gauge of Sarge༒ant’s pace on Sunday.

Nico Hulkenberg - 6.5
Another tough weeken꧙d for Haas, whose race pace continues to be the worst on the grid. He slightly had the edge on Magnussen.
Daniel Ricciardo - 6.5
A weekend of missed opportunities ꦗfor Ricciardo. His pace was similar to Tsunoda but some naivety when battling Piastri in the sprint cost him a point or two. He was then unfortunate to sustain damage on the opening lap of the grand prixꦬ.
Oscar Piastri - 6
Nowhere near Norris’ level throughout the weeke🦹nd at Interlagos. Like Ricciardo, his race was ruined after he picked up damage on L🎉ap 1, which ultimately put him a lap down.
George Russell - 7
Russell was impressive in the sprint to come away fourth as his teammate struggled. On Sunday, while he did appear to have a pace advantage, Hamilton’s advantage in tyre preservation was apparen🐻t as the grand prix progressed. His race ended with a DNF.
Valtteri Bottas - 7.5
A fine weekend from Bottas, who was one of the many retirements. The Finn w🍸as a few tenths ahead of 💞Zhou in qualifying, and challenged for the top 10 on Sunday before a technical issue forced him out of the race.

Zhou Guanyu - 6
Not at Bottas’ level at Interlagos. Like his teammate, he was forced to retir♉e prematu💝rely.
Kevin Magnussen - 5.5
Magnussen was the arguably cause of the Lap 1 collision involving Albon, which put him out of the race. 🍸In raw pace terms, he seemed to be a smidgen off Hulkenberg - an improvement, particularly over one-lap relative to the rest of the season.
Charles Leclerc - 8.5
Leclerc was enjoying a mega weekend in Brazil. Lighting quick in the various qual♋ifying sessions, and put together a fine drive in the sprint. However, his race was done on Lap 1 after an electronic problem locked his wheels and caused him to spin out into the barriers.
Alex Albon - 7
It wasn’t one of Williams’ best weekends in 2023. Quicker than Sargeant, Albon extracted the most from the car undern🦩eath him.
