Singapore Grand Prix - Driver ratings

Alexander Rossi - (14th place): 8/10

A very impressive Formula One debut for the American, who had to deal with a broken radio for much of the race. Rossi was sensible at the start and took advantage of team-mate Will Stevens running wide at Turn 7 to run as the lead Manor on the road, pulling away in the closing laps. Looked after his tyres well - something he says is thanks to GP2 being a good school for tyre management - and did well to deal with the traffic on the second safety car restart when he was third in the queue on the road, but unaware he could unlap himself due to the lack of radio. His race performance was even more impressive after Rossi failed to do any long running on Friday due to a crash in FP1.
