It wasn't an exciting race TBH, I didn't see any of the top 10 really stand out, given that Hamilton won I gave him the vote.

I was expecting more from Red Bull, as this track suits them well but they are still too far from Mercedes. Raikkonen was very sloppy, he should have been able to take Verstappen on those fresh super softs, Verstappen was driving like a grandma by then :D

It was good to see Riccardo out race Verstappen, he needed that

I found it really difficult to decide on my Driver of the Day as there really wasn't too much done by anyone that was truly memorable.

Hamilton won the start and controlled the race from there.
Rosberg lost the start and, after passing Ricciardo in turn 2, had to chase Hamilton the whole day.
Ricciardo's pass on Rosberg and almost Hamilton through turn 1 was impressive and, for this move alone, I have given him my Driver of the Day.
