2016 Belgian Grand Prix - Driver ratings

F1i looks back at how the Belgian Grand Prix at Spa-Franchorchamps unfolded and gives each driver a mark out of ten

Nico Rosberg - 1st place, 25 points - 8/10

A slightly strange weekend for Rosberg, who entered it knowing he was unlikely to be challenged but then had a real fight on his hands for pole position. Did the job he had to in qualifying as Mercedes turned around its FP3 struggles, and was never threatened once he got off the line cleanly. In a chaotic race, Rosberg led every lap and probably had time to watch the rest of the action on the screens around the circuit. Didn’t make a mistake at any stage, which is a good confidence boost after his poor race at Hockenheim before the break.
