Frances Fry (Assistant Writer) - "My star driver of the Russian Grand Prix is unsurprisingly Sergio Perez. Perez performed with incredible skill this weekend, managing to hold off the rest of the field as he pushed his way forward and finally, defended his third place and podium step.
He made up a total of six places during the race. However, he almost lost two of these positions in the final lap of the Grand Prix as Bottas and Raikonnen slipped past him. However, the two collided not seconds later, allowing Checo (Perez) to jump back ahead, stealing third place once again. Checo handled the situation calmly, keeping his cool. He crossed the line in third place winning a huge 15 points for his mid-field team. Bringing home their third ever podium was celebrated throughout their garage. Congratulations Sergio!"
Amy Hawk (Lead Writer & Editor) - "My star driver of the Russian GP is also Sergio Perez. Being a huge supporter of the Force India F1 team, I was absolutely thrilled that he was able to finish on the podium. He did a stellar job looking out for his tyres and keeping the pace even when the degradation started to become an issue.
Perez has shown before that he has what it takes to be up there in the front with the leaders and we definitely saw that during the race & I know there's plenty more to come from him, Hulkenberg & the team."
