#7 Force India

F1 Grand Prix of Japan
Points all round for Force India once again

Sergio Perez - 7th

The new Force India team are doing what they do best and that is consistently grabbing points week in, week out.

Even though the partnership of Sergio Perez and Esteban Ocon can be a rollercoaster from time to time, when they get their heads down they perform well for the team.

Perez started the race in 9th position and finished two places higher in 7th.

Driver's rating: 6/10

Esteban Ocon - 9th

An uncertain future for Esteban Ocon but he showed yet again what all these teams will be missing out on if not offered an F1 seat for next year.

The Frenchman doesn't even know how many races he has left at Force India with Lance Stroll looking to replace him.

But on Sunday, Ocon was professional once more out on the track and secured vital points for the team.

Driver's rating: 6/10
