Nobody really stood out for me. I picked NR for his flawless execution. Honorary mention to FA for stealing the fastest lap from KR at the end.

Ricciardo was the dotr for me for the pass on Bottas. Rosberg also drove a great race.

Ricciardo, for sure!! That was a great pass on Bottas!!

p.s. second driver of the day would go to Rosberg for playing to the Tifosi, post race!

After the agony of defeat, success will be sweet!

Ricciardo because of that super brave pass for 5th; props to Bottas for seeing the lunge and keeping it clean. Rosberg drove well, but it's easy leading from the front in the best car with your team mate significantly behind, which is why I did not give the driver of the race title to Rosberg.

#F1 Stats time! Fernando's fastest lap was Honda's first since Ayrton Senna in the 1992 Portuguese GP (via @RacecarEngineer)

Jenson Button, he was forced off the track on the first lap and was running in last place but he fought back to finish 12th in the end. It was probably one of his best ever drives but it will go unnoticed by many.

And he passed his teammate! Alonso would have noticed that.
