McLaren for me, what a big change for them from the doldrums of the previous few years.

Mercedes. A lot to contend with, with both drivers as well as the issues with the cars.

Actually tough as every team had problems of some kind.
I think I will just give it to Mercedes for making the fastest car and getting both to the end at least. |

McLaren did very well and ran without problems (as far as we know) on both cars.
Their turnaround was started somewhat earlier tough, see last year... Mercedes in the end would have easily won if not or those stupid safety cars, and still managed to do so despite all the problems they seemingly had. Their advantage is such that they get my vote over McLaren. |

Perhaps it should be Mercedes because the cars are so much faster than anyone else, and they both finished, albeit being nursed home.
But I really wasn’t expecting McLaren to do so well so they are my winners. It’s great to see them having dragged themselves off the back of the grid a couple of years back to now seriously knocking on the door. I bet Red Bull are not feeling quite so smug about the engine supplier swap now. |

I went with McLaren, two cars in the top 5 and both ran at Maximum without issue.
Seeing theirs and Lando's happiness at the end was the icing on the cake. |

I went for McLaren - probably the only team that got a better than expected result and got both cars home as well.
Mercedes would have got the vote but converted an utterly dominant car into a 1-4 finish. Considering the pace advantage they had that has to be a disappointing result for them. |

As with others - gave it to McLaren over Mercedes because better management would have ensured a Merc 1-2.....and because I'm happy seeing McL with young talent back up there!
