I'm going to give it to Valtteri Bottas on this occasion for some searing pace to manage a hard-earned 8th place.
Excellent drives from a lot of people though including Vettel, Grosjean, Hamilton, Alonso, Hulkenberg and Perez. |

Bottas, for clearly demonstrating that (a) he's quick and (b) Williams can engineer a decent car.
In fact, the team & driver performance show up one of the current F1 problems all to clearly: everything is so infinitesimally marginal. Be just a tiny bit off in your design, you might as well go home. |

Anyone who doesn't give this to Bottas is cold and mean.
I appreciate there were several good drives, but come on. |

Not a Grosjean fan, but he did all that could be asked of him today - soaked up the pressure, and withstood it. Honourable mention to Bottas - a great result for him and the team!

There is no denying that finger boy is in a different class, Grosjean was the best of the rest IMHO.

For once (actually more than once), I'll give it to Vettel. I thought Romain did a great job and an honourable mention to Bottas.

Grosjean gets my vote. I suspect if he was in Vettell's car he would have done exactly the same as Vettell did.

Bottas, fer sure. Grosjean, Perez and Hulkenberg were also worthy of mention. Vettel is in a league of his own, but he's not English, so I didn't vote for him this time.

Bottas or Grosjean? I think Bottas, just for getting himself and Williams into the points.

It was another good performance by Vettel, no doubt. However, I am going to give it to RoGro for his 2nd place. Sterling work from him again.
Honourable mentions to Bottas(giving Williams some much need points), the Hulk and Rosberg as well. |
