Sergio Perez was outqualified by Daniel Ricciardo in the AlphaTauri, and the Mexican crashed out of his home Grand Prix at turn one. Although he limped around to the pitbox, Perez was unable to continue. But there's more bad news for Perez: Daniel Ricciardo impressed. Max Versappen, Lando Norris and Lewis Hamilton were all beaten in the vote by the GPblog community by Ricciardo.

Driver of the day

Everyone applauded Ricciardo for his impressive qualifying performance to reach the second-row of the grid. But most expected the Australian to drop back in the race. Ricciardo did well enough to only drop to P7 and therefore bag six points for AlphaTauri. This moved them off the bottom of the Constructors World Championship.

Lando Norris won the driver of the day result for coming from P17 to P5, but it was only good enough for second-place in the GPblog vote. Both Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton picked up a similar amount of votes, but the Dutchman came out on top. Piastri, Leclerc and Tsunoda each picked up a small amount of votes.

  1. Ricciardo 37%
  2. Norris 31%
  3. Verstappen 15%
  4. Hamilton 14%
