Nico Hulkenberg, Audi (P12) – 6.5/10
Started 12th and finished 12th on a day where Audi tried an offset strategy by stretching his opening stint. The long roll of the dice didn't yield any tactical dividends, leaving the German stranded just outside the points.
Gabriel Bortoleto, Audi (P11) – 6.5/10
Showed flashes of brilliance by booking a Top 10 grid slot in qualifying, but a poor launch saw him drop like a stone to 16th early on. Mounted a spirited fightback to reach the fringes of the points, though 11th feels like a missed opportunity.
