Valtteri Bottas (retired): 7.5/10
The Sochi winner knew he wasn’t on equal footing with his rivals. His guys had to swap in a four Grands Prix old power unit. Despite a slide on his Q3 lap, he was just 2/10s off the pole. When the lights went out, he was stuck behind Lewis and tapped Räikkönen. He played the team game in holding up Vettel who had come in for fresh Pirellis. He was on his way to another podium when the V6 gave up the ghost.
