Verstappen in charge, Doohan misses out: Japanese Grand Prix notes

@DPPI

9/10 – Max Verstappen

A legendary lap on Saturday allowed him to start from pole position. Then, his metronomic consistency carried him to victory without ever being truly troubled. Exceptional.

8/10 – Isack Hadjar

Qualified 7th once again, ahead of his idol Lewis Hamilton, the Parisian scored his first points in Formula 1 and made a nice overtaking on Car

The intern is barely improving, it will be better for the next GP, he will be awake

We should stop giving out marks, because it's bordering on ridiculous. Verstappen certainly deserved a 10, Doohan didn't deserve such criticism. But the most ridiculous thing is the 6s for Norris and Piastri! As if they hadn't even been on the podium!

Verstappen deserved 10 for his qualifying and his race. Bravo to the Hadjar / Antonelli / Bearman trio! As for Tsunoda with his thunderous declarations of podium, driver of the day, it's almost an April Fool's joke while in the race, he was hardly better in the end than Doohan who overtook several competitors and finished not so far behind his teammate

Only 9 for Max, you're nitpicking

Your Dohan bashing is pathetic. After his mistake on Friday, certainly, but under enormous pressure, he finished just two places behind Gasly, having overtaken several competitors.
