Top 10 Drivers Ranking for the 2019 Russian GP

The sixth running of the Russian Grand Prix at Sochi focused on the resurgance of Ferrari in 2019 following three consecutive victories.

Mercedes have won on every occasion in Russia prior to 2019, so this was the perfect opportunity for the German team to bounce back from a lacklustre second half of the season.

There was also attention on Valtteri Bottas, who has had a lot of memories at Sochi. It was the track that gave the Fin his first victory in 2017 and also where he was ordered to give up the race victory to his teammate in 2018. Having not won a race in 2019 since the Azerbaijan Grand Prix, Bottas was determined to end the season on a high note as well as keeping himself in the title fight against Hamilton.

So did Ferrari keep up their momentum? Did Mercedes conquer in Russia again? Did the others fair in the battle of the midfield? Here’s our top 10 for the Russian Grand Prix
