Mexican Grand Prix - Driver ratings

After Nico Rosberg held off team-mate Lewis Hamilton to win in Mexico City, F1i looks at how each driver performed in the Mexican Grand Prix and gives a rating out of ten

Nico Rosberg - 1st place, pole position, 25 points - 9/10

A complete performance from Rosberg, coming just seven days after his title disappointment in Austin. Rosberg managed to quickly reset and simply looked quicker than Hamilton throughout the weekend. Back to his best in qualifying - pole was his fourth in a row - Rosberg made a good start and then managed the gap to Hamilton throughout, never letting his team-mate attack him. The sort of performance that will make him a serious challenger next year if delivered regularly.
