Monaco Grand Prix driver ratings
Some mediocre scores for big names, one 10-out-of-10 for an underdog and others squandering chances to impress. BEN ANDERSON ranks the Formula 1 pack's Monaco performances
6 NICO ROSBERG
Mercedes F1 W06
Start: 2nd
Finish: 1st
Strategy: 1 stop (supersoft/soft)
Rating: 7
Arrived at this race off the back of a dominant performance in Spain, and as winner of the previous two Monaco Grands Prix, but team-mate Lewis Hamilton raised the bar in qualifying and Rosberg couldn't respond in kind.
