The Race F1 Podcast · Driver Rankings: Who was the most impressive driver in Austria? · 30 Jun 2026 podcast

Pierre Gasly, 10th in yours, 10th in theirs.

We're going to go to the bottom because this was a really interesting one that got loads of questions from the members club.

Number 37, Ranch Dingus, Amir Merziani in particular, all wondering if this was a particularly tough week to pick 22nd because in Amir's words, nobody was noticeably poor.

It's Franco Colapinto you have put 22nd.

That enrages Gabriel Boutela who feels it's a case of if in doubt, we put Franco last.

And he's quite dismissive of you saying that that was as good a 22nd place as you'll get.

But yeah, who else was just above that?

I think we had Colapinto 22nd, Lance Stroll 21st, Alex Albon 20th, Esteban Ocon 19th.

Separating that group on a weekend when, you know, nobody like stacked it on the first lap of the race and took out five other cars.

Nobody was absolutely miles off the pace of their teammate.

Are the members right in thinking this was a really tough one to separate at the bottom as well as the top?

Yeah, you mentioned the format being rankings rather than ratings.

One of the reasons we in the race editorial management made you change, we shouldn't object to you.

You weren't like, please let me keep my ratings.

You were fine with this format, but it was an idea that came from our end, I think.

One of the reasons we did the switch was because, yes, you could, in most F1 races, give everyone minimum five, six out of 10, because most people are doing a really good job most of the time.

But this is about being really elite.

You don't share positions in F1.

Even if you have equal qualifying times, they find a way to split you.

This is about being first rather than 22nd.
