Formula 1 experts give each driver a score out of 10 over the race weekend – judged purely on performance, not machinery. The experts’ scores are then averaged out across the season to create an overall Power Rankings Leaderboard. For the Spanish Grand Prix, the judges rewarded Charles Leclerc’s great efforts to score a comfortable fourth place, finishing ahead of a much faster Red Bull car and also ahead of Ferrari’s main rivals for the 2021 Formula 1 season, McLaren:
“A superb weekend from Charles Leclerc in Spain, the Monegasque taking P4 on the grid (for the third time this season) and then – unlike at Bahrain and Portugal – managing to hold onto that position by the chequered flag, demonstrating that Ferrari are getting on top of their race pace issues. Not only that, but a sweet move around the outside of Bottas on Lap 1 meant that Leclerc spent 28 of the 66 laps in P3, a timely reminder that, when Ferrari can ultimately give him a race-winning car again, Leclerc will do the rest. A worthy earner of a near-perfect Power Rankings score this week.”
