Just a thread on each drivers key highlight this season:
Hamilton:
Without doubt the winning of his 7th championship. Dominated this season and probably up there with the best individual seasons ever, along with Schumacher (02) and Vettel (13). He sealed it in style too

Bottas:
A difficult year which has early plenty of deserved criticism, but his win in Austria given a very little number of people belief that he’ll stop Hamilton, taking the lead of the championship

Leclerc:
His podium in Austria. I don’t know how the hell he managed a P2 on the opening day of the season in this car, but he did it. Absolutely stellar drive and driver of the season for me

Vettel:
His podium in Turkey. What a drive from a very under-appreciated driver. He shown what a talented driver he is and shown his experience and skill with a very good drive in tough conditions in a very tough season for him

Verstappen:
His win at Silverstone. Many people believed Mercedes would win every race this season, but he managed to break the duck. He is the only man this season keeping the battle with Mercedes entertaining and has had his best season yet

Sainz:
‘Car 55’ had a great race at Monza. Scored the second podium of his career and pushed eventual race winner Gasly to the last lap. Unfortunate not to win

Norris:
His podium in Austria. He driven a great race, but his fans’ reaction meant that I’m glad he hasn’t scored one since

Ricciardo:
His podium in Germany. He made the most of the safety car and finally got that podium he went to Renault for. Also meant that Cyril had to get a tattoo

Ocon:
His drive in Belgium. Considering the season Ricciardo has had, he got the most he could’ve out of that Renault that weekend. Loved the fact he got Albon on the last lap too

Gasly:
I really don’t need to say anything more but I will. This was probably the moment of the season

Kvyat:
His drive at Imola. A season in which he’s been overshadowed by Gasly, but his driver here went under the radar. The move on Leclerc was top quality and he wasn’t all that far off getting another podium

Perez:
The podium at Istanbul. This guy is P4 in the championship and still doesn’t have a seat for next year. If he doesn’t get the RB seat over Albon, then that’s straight up murder

Stroll:
That pole at Turkey. The only man, other than the ‘black’ Mercedes, to score a pole. Mastered the conditions and came out of nowhere. What a lap.

Raikkonen:
Struggled to choose between his opening lap at Portimao or the shit storm his caused among fans for his post about James Hunt and Hamilton. In the end, I chose that lap at Portimao, because that there was special

Giovinazzi:
I just want to say every opening lap for him. Yes, he always starts at the back somewhere, but so do the others around him and the number of moves he has made early on is astounding. He’s actually better than he’s given credit for

Magnussen:
His point in Hungary. Let’s face it, that car shouldn’t have scored a single point all season. The team made a brilliant strategy call and he driven really well to give them back what they gave him. Not to mention, it was the teams first point of the year

Grosjean:
His P9 in Germany. For whatever reason, all I hear is people slagging this guy off. He’s genuinely one of the nicest drivers on the grid. He scored his first points of the year whilst almost breaking his finger in a super, under appreciated drive

Latifi:
His 3 P11’s. Can’t choose a single moment because he sits above Russell, who has been acknowledged as a ‘generational talent’, in his first season in F1. Nothing taken away from Russell here
