Kimi Raikkonen - 1st

Ad

It was a great day for Kimi Raikkonen and his huge group of fans as they finally saw the Iceman win an F1 race for the first time in 5 years.

Raikkonen's previous race victory was at the 2013 Australian Grand Prix in Melbourne when he was in his second season at Lotus before rejoining Scuderia Ferrari the following year.

With Raikkonen in his final few races in his Ferrari contract, the Fin is clearly making the most out of it before he rejoins Sauber for 2019.

Driver's rating: 8/10

Sebastian Vettel - 4th

Sebastian Vettel's championship bid lives on for another week before the Mexican Grand Prix this weekend.

Vettel began the race in 5th after he was given a three-place grid penalty for failing to slow sufficiently during a red flag period in Free Practice 1.

And it was also a bad start to the race for Vettel when he spun off the track after colliding with Daniel Ricciardo.

Ad

Vettel has had a repetitiveness of spinning off the track in the last few races especially in the opening laps.

The German will challenge once more this weekend in Mexico City but will probably be his last chance before Hamilton gets his hands on a 5th world championship.

Driver's rating: 6/10
