F1 | The incorrect report cards of the 2023 Bahrain GP

Max Verstappen 10 For the reigning world champion it's really boringly all too easy. He runs into the desert, in the literal sense, alone to enjoy the missile sewn onto him by the tailor Newey. There is no match.

Sergio Perez 8 At a safe distance from the captain, whose talent he doesn't have the stigmata of, yet the ease with which he finishes second gives the idea of ​​the excessive power of the drinker.

Fernando Alonso 9 He looks like one of the old guys from the movie Cocoon who suddenly regains all his youth. The overtaking in the mixed race on Hamilton is a masterpiece of driving and wickedness. He then enjoys attacking a defenseless Sainz, the Ferraristi a little less so. The podium is deserved for the stability and goodness of his AMR23.

Carlos Sainz 6,5 We didn't understand if he ran, managed, walked, worked as a taxi driver, long distance runner, defender, victim or executioner. Anonymous yes, but about the sublime? Slow compared to his companion or very good at managing the tires that melted on his lopsided SF-23? Maybe the truth lies in the middle, at least it brings home points.

Charles Leclerc 7,5 The speed in qualifying, the aggressiveness in the first laps, the class at the wheel, the impotence and finally the disappointment and the staring into space. For the predestined it is a movie already seen. A horror: red sink.

Lance Stroll 7 With bad wrists at least he moves the steering wheel less hysterically... jokes aside, a good sixth place in less than optimal physical conditions, proof of Aston Martin's competitiveness, but also of its maturity.

lewis hamilton 6 You've won more than a hundred races, seven championships, and you keep racing only to be caught by Alonso in the middle of the slow stretch? But who makes you do it, Lewis.

George Russel 5,5 He acts "nice" by saying over the radio that Hamilton is a bit slow, but then he gets fooled by Stroll. Humility, boy.

Valtteri Bottas 7,5 He beats many colleagues by anticipating the first stop and finishes in the points, taking home four points which are a lot for Sauber-still-Alfa. What a goat.

Pierre Gasly 7 After a horrible qualifying he climbed back up to ninth place thanks to pace and strategy, the feeling with Alpine was established.

Alex Albon 6,5 The little dot that is a proclamation for Vowles' Williams. He no longer wants to be the Cinderella of the group.

Logan Sargeant 6 Twelfth at the finish line, good first in F1.

Nico Hulkenberg 6 He's crazy in qualifying (top ten, very good), but he runs the race in reverse, evidently Haas' problem wasn't Mick Schumacher.

Lando Norris 6,5 He deserves a car worthy of his talent, this McLaren is a disaster.

Oscar Piastri 6 A taste of how tough the season will be.

Ferrari 4 It's not as fast as Red Bull, it wears out the tires too much, it's unreliable. But it also has flaws.

McLaren 2  Norris made six pit stops, Piastri retired, slow on the flying lap and on the pace. In vertical collapse.
