Driver ratings are up on the sky sports website (I would post a link but I don't like giving the muppets air time on here).
Predictably the media are on his back already and Hamilton given an (undeserved IMO) low score. Myself, I didn't think he had a 7.5 weekend, his only mistake was not lifting under a yellow on Saturday and that was marginal. No mention that he was actually the fastest car on the track in race trim, was catching Bottas at a very good rate before the first SC. The incident with poor Albon was unfortunate, but I've seen it many times now and I really am not sure what else he could have done. It was 50:50 at best. I'd have given Bottas a 9 and Hamilton a 8.5 for the weekend as a whole.
