The 2021 Formula 1 season has started in very exciting fashion. The Bahrain Grand Prix brought out the best in the two title contenders and we immediately saw a direct battle between Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen. But was one of them the 'Driver of the Day'?
Multiple standouts behind Verstappen and Hamilton
There are a number of other drivers who are also eligible for this honour. How about Lando Norris, who confidently outsprinted his teammate on the opening lap and then quietly secured the 'best of the rest' title?
Or Sergio Perez, who stalled on the warm-up lap, had to start from the pit lane and then, just like in December, pulled off an amazing race. Back then he took the victory on this circuit, now he is rewarded with fifth place.
Finally, the spotlight is on Yuki Tsunoda, who lost a lot of ground at the start, but still managed to score points on his debut with a clever race. But maybe you know another driver who was the best on Sunday? Let us know below!
