Helmut Marko will not be satisfied: there are three of his cyclists among the survey participants.
Starting with the Formula 1 Canadian Grand Prix, we start a new section. Now, after the end of the race, we offer you to choose the worst driver yourself. Also, in this qualifying survey, we urge you to evaluate the performance of the drivers on race day. That is, it turns out such an award “Rider of the Day upside down.”
According to the results of the race at Silverstone, the editors selected five contenders for the title of worst driver, and now only you will determine the name of the “winner”.
Use the ▼▲ arrows to select and write in the comments why you made this decision!
Important: The “Ranking” functionality is available only in the normal version of the “Championship”. If you entered this material via a search page, you will see a list generated without voting buttons.

Sergio Perez
Yes, Cheko once again made it into the points after a weak qualifying, moving up from 16th to 6th. But is this really the highest possible result behind the wheel of the fastest car in the field? Especially considering that Pérez was also helped by a safety car. He feels like Sergio is wasting too much time behind the opponents. After the restart, the Mexican bypassed only two riders, somehow quite weak.

The judges pardoned the Canadian when he overtook Gasly off track, a controversial episode, the Aston Martin driver could well have been fined. However, Stroll still got his five seconds for breaching the track limits and fell into the protocol from 11th to 14th place. Mind you, and without a penalty, Lance looked unappealing against the backdrop of Fernando Alonso, who became the seventh. Do we really have a future title contender?

nick de vries
It is almost a traditional Dutch hit in our rubric. De Vries had a decent race but, like Tsunoda, he missed the finish after a restart on soft tyres. The Dutchman missed Zhou and then fell behind a group struggling in the second ten.

The Japanese runner “Alpha Tauri” showed himself badly at the end of the race. After the restart, Tsunoda lost Hulkenberg and Zhou, leaving only De Vries behind. Doesn’t sound good for a team leader.

nico hulkenberg
Once again, a strong qualifying did not help the German. And in this case, he can’t attribute it all to tire wear. Yes, the loss of a couple of positions at the start can be explained by the choice of “hard”, but then the Hulk himself made a mistake, letting Perez pass and breaking the Red Bull’s front wing. This deprived the German of even theoretical chances for points.
