Lewis Hamilton (P1, 25 pts) : 9.5/10
With a car seemingly on rails, Lewis ticked Suzuka off his qualifying bucket list. While never threatened in the race it was hardly a Sunday drive for Lewis, especially late in the day when he called in a vibration issue with his rear tyres. Despite Verstappen closing in at a rapid rate, he held on to score maximum points and provide himself with an opportunity to seal his fourth title in Austin in two weeks.
