our Spanish Grand Prix F1 driver
ratings this video is sponsored by the
wonderful people over at Squarespace the
all-in-one website platform for
entrepreneurs to stand out and succeed
online okay let's get into the driver
ratings and start with Kevin Magnuson
qualified 16th started 16th finished
17th it is going to be a whopping
straight down the middle five out of 10
from me for Kevin Magnuson look 5sec
penalty for a full start aside what a
calm composed weekend for Kevin Magnuson
nothing too crazy of course we got to
see the penalty graphic which felt like
home to see that come up for K km mag
but apart from that quite an anonymous
weekend for for Kevin yeah it was a
pretty a pretty pretty uh didn't really
see him let's put it that way now i'
gone for a four out of 10 for km mag
yeah the hulberg showed that points were
maybe a possibility it was of course
always difficult based on when the fact
that everyone finished the race um but
Magnuson qualified poorly again compared
to his teammate jump start not the best
uh and then has finished down the order
as well so uh can't give him a straight
down the middle I've got to give him a
little bit of a bad grade for that fair
enough good slander Point can see a
point and now maybe wish had given a
four but that's fine we're sticking with
a five and the fans also gave km mag a
five Nico hulkenberg qualified 13th
started 13th finished 11th I've gone for
a 6 out of 10 for niik hulkenberg maybe
points were on he had a great start
battling a Red Bull in Sergio Perez of
course um but I think that's more on per
paris's form at the moment yeah the
5-second penalty of speeding in the pit
Lane may have cost him I know he
finished more than 5 seconds behind Aon
but maybe it would have given him a bit
more of a chance if he had been few
seconds behind him at the end and really
gone for it okie dokie I have gone for a
seven out of 10 for nienberg cuz I think
it was a very good effort to finish 11th
Place in a race where everybody finished
yeah he pitted from lap 12 then went the
mediums then was on the hards at the end
and we all know how bad the hards were
so uh to still finish 11th I think is a
is a very good good uh good effort from
Nico he had a very good start as well
it's worth mentioning making up three
places which uh gave him a good
opportunity to to potentially score a
point the fans gave Nia hulkenberg a six

P1 Joe guu qualified 15th started 15th
finished 13th it is going to be a seven
out of 10 for Joe Grand new I think it
was a very good effort in that stake car
that has had some upgrades uh this
weekend and clearly they've taken a step
forward from being last on the grid uh
so that's a great job from them and I
think Joe had a very good weekend of
course didn't score any points didn't
really get close to the points but we
think about where he's come from and how
much he's improved from qualifying 20th
and just being at at the back
languishing got to got to commend it so
Joe's had a very good weekend and that's
why I am giving him a seven he's also
getting a seven from a decent Drive um
more what he should be doing it has to
be said seemed like every time I saw we
saw him on screen he was passing or
letting through botas I think the stakes
did a different strategy from each other
Joe had a really good race at Barcelona
last year um so it' be interesting to
see going forward if this is just his
absolute goated track and he's he's
really good around here and can get a
good result the fans gave him a six B
valter botas qualified 12th started 12th
finished 16th I have gone for a five out
of 10 don't think it was entirely his
uh his fault that the race went the way
it did went for a different strategy
that didn't didn't quite work but
nothing spectacular either so gone for a
five interesting I am going to go with a
four out of 10 for botas I think that it
was a reasonably poor race from uh from
valter considering he's had the the
upper hand over XE quite significantly
um and he finished 20 30 seconds behind
his teammate so it was uh quite the the
disaster for him of course as he said
the Str didn't work but got to got to
try and make it work in in some regards
and of course he went from soft to soft
and then to onto the hards very early on
lap 28 so I do wonder if botas just
wasn't able to manage those soft tires
uh like like the others and the fans
gave botas a five Yuki soda qualified
17th started 17th finished 19th I am
going for a 4 out of 10 the Yuki sonoda
you would think that a 19th Place for an
RB that's been scoring points left right
and Center would uh yeah would maybe
constitute a two but the car quite
clearly with both drivers were pretty
was pretty shocking it it just didn't
work out at all I think Yuki went for a
three-stop strategy which is uh wild uh
the pace was nowhere and he struggled to
drive so a weekend to forget for Yuki
for sure uh I've gone for a four out of
10 as well for Yuki sod tough weekend
five 5c penalty of course Shing in the
pit Lane not ideal still like qualified
Daniel Ricardo but then his race was was
poor and Dro back you know it's one of
those races where yes he's not in his
usual place but it's quite clear from
what his teammate did as well and just
generally RB all weekend that it's down
to the car and that that car has not
worked the fans gave Yuki Coda A4 Danny
Ricardo now qualified 18th started 18th
finished 15th I have gone for a five out
of 10 a very average race in a car that
wasn't very good this weekend
and they need to find out why they have
essentially gone backwards with upgrades
um cuz not good at all for for RB but
just nothing to to shout about really no
nothing to shout about I've gone for a
five out of 10 as well Daniel doing a
two stop as opposed to Yuki 3 and of
course finished 15th so I give him a
slightly better grade didn't get a
drivethru uh or sorry a 5-sec penalty
for for speeding in the pit Lane like
Yuki did and a slightly cleaner weekend
I think he even said that he maximized
his weekend so maybe Daniel did actually
drive 10 out of 10 Race but we will
never know uh with him down in 15 the
beauty of Formula 1 and the fans also
gave Daniel Ricardo a 5 out of 10 Logan
Sergeant qualified 20th started 19th and
finished
20th it is a three out of 10 just
another Logan Sergeant race he didn't
end up in the wall so that gets an extra
point very disappointed with qualifying
that was the opportunity to out qualify
albon didn't started last what is going
on you know he's saying as a team is a
pretty terrible weekend I'm like bro can
we take some can we take some of that
blame you know cuz albon's going in the
gravel and still beating you by
26 and a half seconds and he started
from the pits and he started from the
Alex albon could have started in Canada
and probably still
won I have gone for a three out of 10 it
was going to be a two but you've kind of
convinced me that he hasn't gone off but
it's still incredibly poor uh from him
because maybe his excuse the whole time
was that he's been wanting a car that
can get me on a Level Playing Field with
Albin and it seems like he's got more
upgrades this weekend and and can can do
that and he's absolutely way off and
then when albin's even starting in the
pit Lane he's finishing behind him and
then finishing behind him by such a long
way quite crazy the fans gave Logan a
two Alex albon qualified 19th started
from the pit Lane and finished 18th
I have gone
for five out of 10 maybe uh this is a
very difficult one because his teammates
obviously done extremely poor it is
another one of those where Alex alurn
might have had the greatest race of all
time apart from going off of course but
I don't think he could do anything I
think Williams were clearly the worst
car this weekend so you know to finish
head of an RB maybe as something I'm
going to give him a four uh because he
made that mistake and went into the
gravel wasn't able to do any sort of
Alex albon special things in qualifying
so I think it was a very it was a poor
weekend for Williams as a whole but also
albon wasn't really making much of a the
difference that sometimes drivers can
make in in poor cars uh so yeah I'm
going to give him just under because of
mainly because of that mistake that he
went off as well where he lost quite a
bit of time and the fans gave Alex a
five EST banon qualified 9th started
e8th finished 10th I am locking in an 8
out of 10 for estan Aon congratulations
sir you scored a point in an Alpine and
Alpine looked quick this weekend he got
into Q3 he drove a decently quiet race
not as good as gazley but I still think
it uh deserves a high grade just purely
because he's scoring points in a car
that looked like it was never going to
score a point ever again at the start of
the season so um he also suspected he
might have some front floor damage uh
say thinking that he might have had uh
yeah something wrong with the car cuz it
was really difficult to drive uh but
either all got a point w an Aon 8 out of
10 I've also gone for an 8 out of 10 for
Aon big turnar around for Alpine this
weekend Aon was not the the better
driver um but still a good race to
deliver points cuz essentially like
they've been given that opportunity and
he's he's got a points finish so that's
a bit of calm is what alpie needed and
that's what he delivered so fair enough
absolutely and the fans gave Aon a seven
Pier gazley qualified seventh started
seventh finished ninth I have gone
for a 10 out of 10 for Pierre gazley I
think it was an absolutely brilliant
race maximized everything he could do
quarter of a second clear of his
teammate and qualifying the Alpine
essentially uh was decent around here
and gazley made the most of it and more
I think without the slow Pit Stop he
would have even beat Perez potentially
as well so can't take anything away from
him wow good Lord we got a gly fanboy in
the house love that I've gone for a 9
out of 10 I can't quite give him a 10
but it was still a very very good
weekend for for gazley uh to score a
couple of points beat his teammate by 11
seconds uh is uh no mean feat when those
two are very usually quite closely uh
matched in literally every session they
ever take part in so yeah gazley
definitely was the better of the two
alpines so I've going to give him give
him a nine the fans gave him an eight so
they do not agree with that 10 out of 10
that is this why they can't be trusted
with Drive the day eight oh Wow way to
go moving swiftly on l qualified 14th
started 14th finished 14th and it is a
four out of 10 I don't really know how
he's not beaten Fernando Alonzo has not
had the best weekend like every time I
saw Alonzo he just looked like he was
driving a tractor um of course Lance is
in the same car uh but it was a pretty
poor weekend uh forol finished near near
on 15 seconds behind Alonzo at the end
and did we even really see him in the
entire race not really roller gone for a
5 out of 10 what is there to say about
his weekend just nothing really happened
did it ason Martin isn't there he didn't
deliver anything special but yeah it's
five out of 10 and the fans gave Lance a
five out of 10 Fernando Alonzo qualified
11th started 10th finished 12th it's 10
out of 10 for Fernando Alonzo Maxim no
of course it's not it's difficult though
I've gone for a six again could have
been the greatest R and Alonzo loves to
say this as well doesn't he uh could
have been the greatest race of his
entire my career wrestling that dust bin
because we we saw that Aston Martin I
was convinced he had damage it would
looked so bad through every single
corner he was fighting the car looked
like he was on like a wet track or
something the way he was wrestling the
car through the corners and it was just
going off but Aston Martin just oh my
God it's just shocking really isn't it
I've gone for a five out of 10 for
Fernando Alonzo obviously better than L
stroll but he's finishing 18 odd seconds
behind a Point Fernando Alonzo you think
he's going to make the difference but uh
I don't think he really can at the
moment in that car but yeah it was it
was just a race of just trying to
survive by the looks of things for
Alonzo so it's a five out of 10 from me
and the fans gave Alonzo a five as well
Oscar piastri qualified 10th started 9th
finished seventh it's going to be a six
out of 10 for Oscar piastri this weekend
for me it was one of his poorer weekends
of course made that mistake in
qualifying and I know we more focus on
the race but that mistaken qualifying
starting 10th would have been ninth it
would have been ninth of course with
Perez's penalty but steal it just put
him on the back foot from there took him
quite a while to to make it through
through the pack and you know he
finished uh quite a large chunk behind
uh Lando Norris at the end around half a
minute or so it looks like the McLaren
was the quickest car and to finished
seventh it's not good enough for Oscar
this this weekend I've gone for a six
out of 10 as well uh you've basically
said everything that I was going to say
in terms of it all came undone in
qualifying which is normally where Oscar
that's his strongest kind of thing at
the moment um his raw speed is
incredible and then when Lando's there
absolutely distraught that he's finished
second in the Grand Prix and saying that
McLaren was the fastest car today it's a
missed opportunity Oscar you know you
can't be finishing p7 in that car so
yeah one to forget for for Oscar pastri
the fans gave Oscar a seven lonari
qualified first started first finished
second I've gone for a nine out of 10
there's two sides to this I think L
unfairly gets criticized for his driving
and and making mistakes and stuff but
the end of the day he stuck it on pole
when his teammate was was 10th and he's
finished second when his teammate was
seventh so you do have to commend him in
that in that sense that he's done a good
job but he knows he's wasted an
opportunity there it all came undone at
the start he got aome wheel spin he did
everything he could in that situation to
try and stop Max Lando's maybe fortunate
that Max didn't go straight into the
grass and lose about four places because
otherwise I think it would have been a
penalty not that the stewards look at
consequence no they don't apparently it
a it a great drive but it's a it's a
missed win um this is why it can't be a
10 of course yes uh I think it was still
uh nearon excellent from Lando Norris
this weekend it's a 9 out of 10 for me
as well uh of course all lost at the
start that's the only place that we can
really fault him after that he drove a
very good race from where he was of
course got stuck behind Russell um but
once he got through there he showed that
the
McLaren was yeah the fastest car
unfortunately a missed opportunity for
Lando but he's in this position he can
be happy about the fact that he's at
McLaren now and they're fighting for for
wins which is not something I think he
would have maybe predicted at this point
in the season um but so it was a 9 out
of 10 for me and the fans also gave
Lando a nine Carlos SS qualified sixth
started sixth finished sixth I am going
for a 7 out of 10 for Carlos signs for
what the Ferrari is it was a good
weekend for Carlos uh he was in the mix
with with charl he got given the worst
strategy so I'm not going to downgrade
him any more than a seven just purely
because I think that he he drove what he
could with the strategy he was given
either or I still think it was a decent
weekend for Carlos and it's a seven yep
I've gone for a 7 out 10 as well for for
Carlos it's still a decent Drive um you
know I could I could say exactly the
same thing for the the next driver that
the sad reality for Ferrari is I think
they've still kind of maximized the
result here you you'd say but
unfortunately for Ferrari that's no
longer second and third it's now fifth
and sixth the fans gave Carlos signs a
seven out of 10 as well Charlotte cler
qualified fifth started fifth finished
fifth gone for
four an eight this is a really difficult
one because essentially like I think
he's
only it was very it was really close and
he's beaten them because he's got a much
better
strategy but I am going to give him an
eight because he drove well at the start
and stayed out a lot longer on the tires
to make that that strategy happen but
yeah I'll give I'll give lir an eight
okay I've gone for a seven out of 10 for
shair um mainly because
and that's the thing that you were sort
of wondering I've gone for a 7.49
n999 um can I change it I just
remembered him no no no I've just
remembered his very naughty thing in
practice and I think he should have got
a grid penalty and he's a very lucky man
so oh wow you're going to downgrade him
I completely forgot about that um and
but to be fair I think he's so fortunate
that he didn't get a penalty that
actually yeah he he does he does get a
seven that's my that's my punishment for
you sh I'm sure you're going to cry
yourself to sleep tonight um the point
downgrade to put him down to a seven
okay uh seven for me as well I think
that he wasn't fortunate in the sense of
he did create that strategy for himself
by going that much longer on the soft
tires but it just turned out to be a
better strategy I don't think that charl
drove much better of a race than than
Carlos SS and that's why I'm going to
give them both a seven out of 10 uh the
fans gave charl a seven as well George
Russell qualified fourth started fourth
finished fourth I'm giving George
Russell a 9 out of 10 I think that it
was I mean it was it was a really
impressive race from Russell once again
uh just purely because he put himself in
that position to score a really decent
race and I think that was it not for the
slow stop and the rubbish strategy he
would have been right up there uh in
well he would have beaten Hamilton I I'm
convinced of that and finished on the
podium and we would have been lording a
decent drive so I'm I'm sort of putting
that to one side because the hard ties
at the end we saw with both Russell and
signs were were rubbish so yeah I I'm
commending George Russell very highly on
this one nine out of 10 I've gone for an
eight out of 10 for George Russell great
move at the start did was unfortunate to
get uh the strategy he did because it
was the worst of strategy but it's still
a good drive so uh it's an eight out of
10 for George the fans gave George an
eight as well leis Hamilton qualified
third started third finished third I've
gone for a N9 out of 10 for LZ Hamilton
much more impressive for from from
Hamilton I do think if he'd got George
Russell start it might have been a very
different different race for him I
missed opportunity again at the start
which is why it's not uh a 10 um but it
really does look like they are they are
really pushing towards uh the front now
particularly as the Red Bull is is going
is really slipping into that pack now of
everyone else so yeah N9 out of 10 for
Lewis I've also gone for a 9 out of 10
for leis Hamilton I think it's a similar
situation charlot Clair Carlos signs I
don't think there was I mean the only
differing factor I think between
Hamilton and Russell was the start
Hamilton had a poor one Russell had a
great one Hamilton made the the better
strategy work as well and uh they were
much closer I think than um perhaps some
other uh races that we've seen uh
recently so uh it's a Hamilton deserves
um a very high grade as well uh so it's
a nine out of 10 for me and the fans
gave Lewis a nine as well Sergio Perez
qualified eighth started 11th and
finished eth three out of 10 then for
Sergio Perez uh yes he did score four
points but he finished 1 minute I
believe it was behind his
teammate I'm always speechless when I
talk about Perez I would love to see him
up there fighting I want to see him up
there fighting because it's much more
fun when we have more cars all fighting
in the top five or six but Perez did not
have Pace at any stage of the weekend to
finish eighth in a car that again your
teammates just won the race a minute
down the road a would have been stuck in
some traffic but that's all
self-inflicted yeah I've also gone for a
3 out of 10 it was a poor poor weekend
again even at a normal track where he's
not made a mistake or gone off or It's
Tricky conditions he's just finished a
minute behind his teammate on the road
you know when Max is winning the race
brilliantly he should not be locked in a
battle with the two alpines like that is
shocking not looking good for for perz
but like you say I want him to turn his
form around because it's more fun if
he's at the front the fans gave Perez a
four Max fappen qualified second started
second finished first it is a 10 out of
10 for Max just to happen didn't get po
position of course but second race in a
row uh I genuinely believe and even
drivers admitting it themselves that the
Red Bull was not the fastest car this
weekend and he's done it again he's won
the race his move on George Russell was
absolutely Sensational like it is it's
textbook like I've watched it back and
it is just like on the limit the best
kind of Formula 1 where they are like
side by side through the corner that
there is literally a car car's width for
him to make that move and he does it
it's just so damn good and it's it's
actually really enjoyable to see Max you
know have to fight for it now cuz it's
more fun and he's literally like proving
all these people that just think it was
just the car wrong because second race
in a row now and
the car is not there this year but he is
still has to be said like dominating the
season I mean when you say the car is
not there obviously it is there it's
yeah it's there it's not where it was
last year G it's a 10 out of 10 for me
as well for Max for stappen H it it's
just this is what makes him so
devastating to race against that even if
you have the fastest car you know Max
will be there you know he'll he'll fight
tooth and nail and that move on Russell
was so important had he got stuck behind
George for couple more laps the soft
tires start to overheat a little bit
perhaps he gets stuck and then that will
give Norris the opportunity to win the
race in the slightly faster McLaren by
the sounds of it that was really
important he won by 2.2 seconds there
was no safety cars that could have come
down to the wire had Max not made uh
that unbelievable move into turn one uh
and then just managed managed his race
from there and you can't fault him it's
a 10 for me and the fans also gave Max a
10 out of 10 so who is rp1 well for me
it's Max for stappen because it's the
only driver I've given a 10 uh to this
weekend of course uh Russell and hson
came close with some nines and uh Lando
as well but it's Max it's always Max I
gave Pierre gazley a 10 and Max a 10 but
sorry yeah it's not as good as Max's
drive so yeah Max just Happ in P1 again
W and that is it we are done here for
the driver ratings for the Spanish Grand
Prix but do not sweat we are back one
once again and again after that for the
Austrian and British Grand pris we'll be
live on Twitch Sprint weekend don't
