6 drivers are above “Good”, led by Max
Verstappen. This year’s world champion
and retiree Nico Rosberg, and Daniel
Ricciardo complete the podium
A few bad drivers: Esteban Gutierrez is
crowned worst, with Daniil Kvyat, Rio
Haryanto and Jolyon Palmer close behind

• The wet Brazilian GP is first with some fantastic driving by
Max Verstappen and others like Ocon.
• The Spanish GP, where both Mercedes collided on lap 1, is
a close second. Title-decider Abu Dhabi GP gets third.
• Other great races include the Monaco GP (with the Red
Bull snafu and Daniel’s performance) and the Austrian GP
(another Mercedes crash, in the last lap this time).
• The Russian GP (despite the “Torpedo” incidents) and the
Italian GP (which has some great racing from Ricciardo
and Alonso in the last few laps) are the most average
races…
• … and the European GP gets the title for most
boring/frustrating race, as expected by everyone (although
many thought a miracle would happen given how the GP2
race went). And Hamilton’s problems did not help.

Rosberg was named worst
driver of the day twice,
which seriously hampered
his aggregate results
Ricciardo got outshined by his
teammate on the year-end poll,
but had the best aggregate result Bottas and Vettel’s perception went
down after year-end, their overall
rating was higher in individual races
Alonso doesn’t get as
much love as he should
given his theoretical
performance
Sainz is relatively
anonymous (while still
in the top half) despite
a strong performance
Vettel’s performance
underrated

Reddit poll on Dec 3 & 4 ‘216 (2,179 responses: https://goo.gl/Vbze46) . Voters were asked to rate each team according to the following scale: Awful (-2.0), Bad (-1.0), Average (+0.0), Good
(+1.0), Awesome (+2.0). Aggregate race poll is the average rating based on 16 race polls conducted on rated (from Monaco to Abu Dhabi GP)
/u/paulricard
Since race polls started with
Monaco, Haas’ early season
achievements are not considered
in the aggregate race polls, which
may explain the discrepancy
Toro Rosso neither impressed nor
disappointed given the situation,
but the Italian outfit was judged
more harshly during races
A lot more disappointment by
Ferrari shown in race polls

strongest by both reddit polls
McLaren driver pair
strongest of the paddock
performance-wise
The Renault, Sauber

consistently rated lower
The Force India guys seem
to perform less in theory than
in everyone’s opinion
