Valtteri Bottas (first, 25 points) : 9.5/10
His first pole in Bahrain, his first win in Russia : the Viking is on a roll and is proving Mercedes was wise to hire him. Just 0.0095s from Vettel in qualifying, Bottas put it in overdrive at the start, drafting the Ferrari and passing it on the run down to turn three. The hard work was done. Despite a small mistake resulting in a flat spot, he was never unsettled by Vettel's tactics and became the fifth Finn to win a Grand Prix. As a reminder, three went on to become World Champions.
