Daniil Kvyat (ninth/2 points) : 8/10
Like his car, the Russian started the year fresh. Ninth on the grid, 25/1000ths behind Sainz, he lost a spot when the lights went out. Thanks to a daring strategy – 33 laps with his first set of tyres-, Kyvat should have had enough to lead Perez without a second pit stop. With Carlos, they ran in vane behind the Force India. Two points along with the fourth fastest lap.
