Pierre Gasly, Alpine (P8): 7/10
It was a relatively quiet race for Gasly, but he managed to stay out of trouble to secure four valuable points for himself and Alpine, although the French outfit are still tenth and last in the Constructors’ Standings. A solid qualifying result, placing his car in eighth on the starting grid, paid dividends in a race where the midfield were tightly packed.
Isack Hadjar, Racing Bulls (P7): 8/10
Wow, Hadjar’s unfortunate spin on the formation lap of the season-opening Australian Grand Prix feels like a lifetime ago, considering how far the Frenchman has come in ability since then. He set a blistering time to get himself into Q3, and continued his fine form with remarkable pace and overtakes on the likes of Hulkenberg and Gasly in the Grand Prix itself. There’s no denying that Hadjar is currently the best of the rookies in 2025.
