Indeed. He probably made the overtake of the season there. A good solid job to get a podium, especially as it is not a track that favours the Red Bull in its current form.

Ricciardo's a good choice. Very bad luck for Verstappen but Ricciardo used his team mates bad luck to good avail.

I vote Ricciardo as well. On the podium again, while there are 4 drivers in much better cars than his.
I bet he'd be right up there for WDC if he had a sligthly better car

"If only" for Alonso but Danny Ric gets the vote, sharpest on the safety car again with cold tyres in an underpowered cars, what can you say against that

Not sure about Alonso, he qualified well and got a great start, but after that just dropped like a stone for a while. How do you judge his pace when he had none, and certainly made the world know about it. It's pretty fun to listen to but sometimes comes across a bit obnoxious when he's telling the team no radio for the rest of the race this is just a test session now, meanwhile he's running in the points in 10th! I bet Wehrlein would love to be running in 10th. Don't know what happened but he seemed to drop back later and was only had his team mate behind and then retired so whatever technical issue he had must of been getting worse.

Also the move on Palmer he should have been penalised for. That was as blatant running a driver off track as it can be, touching wheels a bunch of times as well. He was probably a bit angry at the time, but come on stewards that was no different to Ocon vs Perez, just not at 300kph.

DOTR for me is Ricciardo. Although Lewis and Seb were on another level compared to their team mates.

Yes, tongue firmly in cheek Chief.

The guy who deserves DOTD hardly ever wins on this forum anyway (especially when it is a certain British driver). It's a waste of time really. So I wasted my vote on the least person who deserved it.

As a bigtime Daniel Ricciardo fan, I can honestly say that he does not deserve DOTR. He was out done by Max all weekend. He happened to be at the right place at the right time and made a very good pass on VB and KR. That was his one and only highlight of the entire weekend. If not for Max's car letting him down again, DR would not have even been on the radar for DOTR. That's just my opinion. Sorry Daniel.

Well Ricciardo gets my vote. "He was out done by Max all weekend" - except the race of course (and this is driver of the race not driver of the weekend). The move off the restart and putting the Red Bull on the podium means Daniel gets the vote.

I think that certain British driver had the car most suited to Spa, so it is really hard to tell if he did something special or not.
Yes, he beat his teammate in the same car - but that can be said about 10 of the participants.

Autosports seems to disagree with me, they gave your favorite driver a 10.
Then again they gave Max a 9 for his 7 laps, and Ricciardo only 8.

I voted for Ricciardo, for his pass on Bottas and because he managed to keep a Ferrari and a Mercedes behind in a car that certain has not the same engine power.

How could Lewis realistically get driver of the race? As said earlier, best driver, best car. At Spa a win was expected, sure he worked for it (or was he just running a pace ?) but it was still expected. Monza I expect Lewis to win. If he wins Singapore maybe the driver of the race?

Kimi. Again, how he disposed of Bottas was probably the greatest pass since Hakkinen scooped Zonta and MS at Spa way back when. If it wasn't for that 10 second stop and go who knows where Kimi could have ended up. Top of the podium?
