Daniel Ricciardo (third, 15 points) : 7.5/10
Time wasted in the pits cost him the 2016 win. This year, in putting his stop off as long as he could compared to Bottas and Verstappen, he made it to the podium. This was nearly unimaginable for the Aussie after qualifying where he finished P5 at a half-second behind Max. Daniel railed against his team for sending him out in traffic at the end of Q3. On Sunday, he could thank them.
