Lewis Hamilton, Ferrari (P12) 4/10
On a circuit which is difficult to overtake on, Hamilton pretty much lost his chance of scoring good points on Saturday with a dismal qualifying performance. Starting from P12, the Briton tried something different by getting underway on the hard tyres, but even with the pace advantage in the second half of the Grand Prix he was unable to free himself from a train of cars, ultimately finishing in the same position he started.
Isack Hadjar, Racing Bulls (P11) 5/10
A frustrating (and painful) race for Hadjar, who spent the majority of the Grand Prix in physical discomfort after taking a huge chunk of gravel to the fingers. He also spent the majority of the race stuck behind Bearman, as he didn’t have enough of a pace advantage to craft an overtaking opportunity on the Haas driver. While Bearman eventually retired, Hadjar was unable to make his way past the Mercedes of Antonelli for a top ten finish.
