I'm going to give it a 6. That's for the Vettel versus Hamilton battle - I didn't think that Lewis would be able to fight back and actually overtake him, and also it was kept quite tight after that towards the end - even Lewis' worries about his tyres going off.

That was the best race of the season so far. Considering overtaking is at a premium at Barelona, especially with the new cars, there were some good battles, particularly Bottas vs. Vettel and Hamilton vs. Vettel. There was some incident thrown is as well.
The strategic element was really enthralling and getting it right is still a bit of an issue for Ferrari. Mercedes lured them into the first tyre stop and Ferrari should have pitted under the VSC. That said, it all made for a good race. 7. |

An 8 from me. A bit tricky to decide what to give at the moment though. Compared to races over the years, this wouldn't be up there. But in the context of current regulations and team performance, it has to score highly.
Heck - it even had some McLaren overtakes! |

7. It's always hard to drag a race out of this track, lol, but it did deliver this year.

 Actually we've quite a lot of McLaren overtakes recently. The difference is that this time the McLaren was doing the overtaking. |

Best race of the year so far. Decent battles through the field through out the race. Sensational move from Seb on Bottas. Really good til the last 10 laps or so where it all kinda fizzled.
8 |

I gave it a 6. But after watching the race in full again, get's an 8 from me. That was some drive from Hamilton. Got into Ferrari's head and out foxed Ferrari, and out drove Vettel.

Originally gave it a 7 but in retrospect, I think 8 or even 9 would be more applicable. Great battles, McLaren were doing pretty good, plus what Ferrari/Kimi did with little Thomas was pretty cool.

6. Plenty of incident and at last a genuine overtake for the lead. At Barcelona of all places!
