After Mercedes secured the constructors’ championship thanks to Lewis Hamilton’s win in Sochi, F1i looks at how each driver performed in the Russian Grand Prix and gives a rating out of ten
Lewis Hamilton - 1st place, 25 points: 8/10
Not Hamilton’s finest race but as he put it himself he was “sensible” en route to a crucial victory. Rosberg had the better of him in qualifying but Hamilton knew he didn’t need to take too many risks at the start and duly slotted in behind his team-mate. Built a comfortable gap which negated a rear wing concern late on, but it would have been interesting to see how he would have fared if Rosberg hadn’t retired…
