Sergio Perez - 10th place, 1 point - 7/10
Some similarities with team-mate Hulkenberg in terms of the outright pace of the car, but Perez was also unhappy about the Force India strategy. One of only two drivers to start on the soft tyre and attempt to run long, Perez ended up losing ground on the opening lap and was outside of the points after the first stop. His second stop also saw him stall on exit, dropping behind Daniil Kvyat and ultimately accounting for the small gap to Sainz at the flag.
