    Driver of the race

    Surprised no one opened this thread yet!

    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.

    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.

    No he wasn't!

    I'd have said Vettel up until his mistake 3 laps from the end. So I'll go for Grosjean for getting the Haas team into the points on their debut. Astonishing achievement.

    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)
