Mexican Grand Prix driver ratings
Two title contenders charging from the back, an utterly dominant winner, but the absolute hero of the Mexican Grand Prix weekend was in the upper midfield
Hamilton should have improved on his second Q3 run, and while his Turn 3 move on the first lap was bold he didn't deserve to get a puncture.
His recovery started a little slowly on softs, but even with damage to the diffuser he was able to start to make good progress to salvage two points for ninth. One of his lesser performances in an otherwise spectacular season.
