Mercedes.
A podium, two cars home in the top four and now second in both WDC and WCC. |

Gotta be the silver cars but Williams very close behind them - both made a lot out of little to start with this weekend.

McLaren. Considering where they were at Bahrain this is a great turnaround.

It was a coin toss between McLaren and Ferrari for me. Good solid points for Mac's but Ferrari got the pole, win, fastest lap and led all the laps. Carlo's little accident wasn't team's fault but a combination of driver error and a load of badluck.

Considering McLaren have not made any change at all, it feels weird to give the point to them, even though the team made the best of a bad weekend.
I think Ferrari right now is in a class of their own, even though the way Carlos weekend went, they can't really say it was flawless. Bonus point to Binotto for supporting his driver in the interview with Sky, saying he expects Sainz to bounce back in Imola. But, I must say I was impressed by the weekend turned out for Mercedes. They said they where 5th fastest, and still ended up 3th and 4th. Slightly worrying that they reported heat issues, as did McLaren. But, I give my vote to Mercedes as a general vote of confidence to their drivers both, as they both drove that car way over it's capabilities, and the team did what they could with that. Well done. |

I actually voted Mercedes and didn't think many would join me on that, given their previous form in other years. However, they keep getting results in both cars where faster teams fail. Ferrari and Red Bull beat them but only got one car to the finish.

Ferrari for having produced the best car by some margin.
Hats off to Mercedes for maximizing what they have at the moment, and to Williams for somehow getting a point with a brave strategy. |

It could have been Ferrari, but it looks like an engine that wouldn't start led to the chain of events that culminated in Carlos's red mist moment. So no.
It could have been Mercedes for finishing higher than most of us expected. But that's still pretty poor for a team that has been so dominant until this year. So no. It could have been McLaren for also leaping higher up the results than was anticipated. But that still only put them as best also-rans. So no. I voted for Team Willie, for that brilliant left-field strategy that dragged Alex Albon up to an unexpected 10th. And if another safety car had appeared near the end of the race, it would have been higher still. |

Yeah, but does that go against the team or just Latifi? I guess you didn't vote for him as DOTR?

Voted for Ferrari, despite Sainz's retirement. Once again gave Leclerc the tools and means to succeed
