Bahrain Grand Prix driver ratings
Formula 1's new generation fare well in BEN ANDERSON's judgement of the Bahrain performances, with high scores for some of the young drivers and the newest team in the field
6 NICO ROSBERG
Mercedes F1 W07
Start: 2nd
Finish: 1st
Strategy: 3 stops (super-soft/soft/super-soft/soft)
Rating: 9
This was a near-faultless performance from Rosberg on a track he usually excels at. He loses one mark because he couldn't hold on for pole despite having the advantage going into the second Q3 runs.
