    For Driver i
    Think it's between Sainz and Norris. They finished only 4.5 points apart and both had very several exceptionally good drives. Norris was clearly best of the rest in the first half of the season but seemed to fade a little in the second while Sainz just got better and better. How much this was because Ferrari kept improving the carwhile Mclaren turned its budget to 2022 is hard to say. winner: Sainz

    I would share DotY between Hamilton for Verstappen for giving us such
    an exciting season.

    Three rookies this year but two of them are stuck in the Haas pos so it's not really possible to evaluate them fairly. That leaves Yuki Tsunoda. His first few races were not promising but someone seems to have read him the riot act and he took it to heart. Can't tell if he's good enough for a top team but if he keeps getting better he might be a candidate.

    Tsunoda was quick in F2 - 4 poles and 3 wins speaks for itself - but had a reputation as a bit of a crasher. He has settled in F1 better than I
    expected. Next season will be critical for him.

    Red Bull takes team of the year. When Honda decided to pull out I didn't think there's be any improvement in the power unit (hate that term, race cars should have engines); instead they clearly made major improvements. On the other hand some of their tire strategy seemed way off. Still a big step up.
