Nico Hülkenberg (P6, 8 pts) : 9/10
Hülkenberg is becoming the clear cut best of the rest with on the basis of his 6th consecutive P7 qualifying run. It was a bit of a close call at the start but the German kept himself and his R.S.18 on the track. The two-stop strategy really paid off when the safety car was deployed, and saw him come on strong late in the going to make it a double points effort for the French outfit.
