I've gone for a 9 out of 10 for Kimi Antonelli as well.
It's another imperfect winning weekend.
I think that may well be, if I can remember correctly, four nines, certainly from me in a row, for his four wins.
I'm sure he'll be devastated.
I know they take it very seriously, drive ratings.
I think they all watch it together, you know, like the cool-down room.
I think they all get together.
They have a driver briefing at the next race.
They watch it at the previous race.
Yeah, so Antonelli, look, I think his pace was amazing.
I think he was the quicker Mercedes driver all weekend, but well...
Could have easily finished second behind Russell in the main race.
I think the reason I'm not giving him an eight, and I too considered it like you, I think this is my personal opinion that you need to give a little bit of leeway that the errors came from an absolutely intense battle for the win.
in really tricky conditions whereas you know had he been just running second and locking up into hairpin all the time but they were him and george were making a lot of errors locking up going off all the time because they were flat out in crazy conditions and battling each other for the win so i do give a little bit of leeway for that you know the the down kind of
difficult moment was the the sprint to finish third behind mclaren but won the main race again looked very quick uh i still think he showed again that he was the quicker and had more pace it's just whether he'd have beaten george in the main race because george seemed to maybe be a little bit more consistent so it's a nine for for kimmy
I've gone for a 9 out of 10 for George Russell as well.
Of course, he was leading the sprint and you look on that and go that he's finished first in every session apart from a DNF and he was leading when he retired.
