No one caught my eye, to be honest, so I'm going to go with Grosjean here. Haas is not a driver, but he sure is a winner after today.

Rosberg, he was faster than Hamilton...
I liked Jolyon Palmer's performance. I enjoyed his battles with Bottas and the Torro Rossos. Although he ultimately lost both of those battles, his defending was really impressive. No swerving or typical rookie over-aggression, just consistently putting his car on the right bit of track. And he didn't give up immediately when passed. It looked like a drive of someone who's been in F1 for years.
Plenty of good drives from the front to almost the back. I thought the drivers all battled well considering the performance levels of the cars they were in.
Grosjean - no debate. Putting that thing in 6th from the back of the grid in a car that's running its first race - no contest.
Grosjean! But I Think Haas is a good car and belongs in the midfield.
Kimi Raikkonen.
Okay... not for his drive but for his badassery.
- I know what I'm doing.
- Yeah yeah, leave me alone.
- Something happened. Yeah, I broke something. :O

Seriously. Kimi is cooler than Steve McQueen.
I'm going with Grosjean as well. That result was the highlight of the race IMO.
1. Grosjean (yes, I know his car was quick in qualifying) 2. Vettel (undone by a poor tire chioce) 3. Ricciardo 4. Verstappen (that extra 3-4 seconds in the pits was an eternity) and 5. Palmer (didn't expect him to fight like that)
