Gabriel Bortoleto – 4/10
Could have fought for Q3 but the Nouvelle chicane crash rather ruined the Audi driver’s weekend.
George Russell 6/10
Tough weekend. Didn’t look like he had to pace to even match Mercedes team-mate Antonelli. Needless penalties on top of that and it’s a further hit in the championship challenge.
Nico Hulkenberg – 6/10
Started strong, faded in qualifying but with the chaos could have ended up with points bar a penalty.
Franco Colapinto – 4/10
Has been looking so good the past few races but Monaco didn’t click. Too many near misses with the wall and how he didn’t shunt into Turn One I’ll never know. While his Alpine team-mate Gasly could have been on the podium, he was nowhere to be seen and also had a needless crash with Sainz.
Sergio Perez – 2/10
Unfortunately, what would have been a decent score was all undone by not one but two penalties for being out of position on the grid and costing Cadillac their first point. What makes it worse is that Alonso inherits it, so Cadillac are last in the constructors’ championship as a result.
Carlos Sainz – 6/10
Played the team game but fell behind Williams team-mate Albon this weekend.
Max Verstappen 8/10
Mighty lap in qualifying to only just miss out on pole. Was expecting Verstappen-like things down into Turn One but sadly, it wasn’t meant to be with Red Bull’s engine issues.
Charles Leclerc – 6/10
It wasn’t the fairytale end for Leclerc but even before the crash, he was not happy with his Ferrari team, be it brakes or pit strategy. Doesn’t take away from his speed here but it fell away from him in qualifying and ultimately he still put his car in the wall.
Lando Norris 6/10
Ended up starting behind McLaren team-mate Piastri and then got done by Gasly at the start. Ultimately had to retire from the race for the second grand prix in a row.
Oliver Bearman – 5/10
A bit unlucky with timings in qualifying but didn’t put the laps together when they counted.
Valtteri Bottas – 3/10
Outperformed by Cadillac team-mate Perez again and couldn’t get in the mix with Alonso or the Haas cars.
Lance Stroll – 4/10
Another weekend of struggles. Last in qualifying and a crash in the race.
