Driver Ratings Update

Well.. they're changed and a little worse. So great. 

1. Max Verstappen - 93 (-2) - Understandable for car balancing but it feels like the problem is more in the car than the driver. 
2. George Russell - 91 (+1) - He's had a good season and it makes sense for a small improvement. 
3. Lando Norris - 91 (=) - Probably fair.  He's had a normal season without really kicking on and taking it by the horns but he's also not been too lousy.
4. Oscar Piastri - 91 (+4) - He's leading the championship and it makes perfect sense to be on his teammates level. 
5. Lewis Hamilton - 90 (+1) - Don't understand this at all. Other than one sprint race victory, he's been an internet joke and miles behind not just his teammate but all of the other frontrunners. You look at timing boards and he's the pit-stop window that the actually competitive cars are hoping to get out in front of. 
6. Charles Leclerc - 90 (-1) - While he's not had his best season in the scarlet colours, he has put his teammate back in his shoebox, got some good results and... got derated.   Why does it feel like they've never liked him? 
7. Fernando Alonso - 88 (=) - If it's a results business, ol' Nando is lucky for the last few races as he was looking woeful at the start.  The car isn't there but he's not really looked a player for the most part. 
8. Carlos Sainz - 86 (-4) - Understandable. Albon isn't exactly generational and Sainz is looking like a rookie next to him. Obviously it'll get better but it's reflective of the poor season so far. 
9. Pierre Gasly - 85 (-1) - Has completely dominated both his teammates... and therefore obviously deserves a nerf.   Then again, Franco is absolute garbage so maybe it makes sense as Pierre should be lapping him every race. 
10. Alexander Albon - 85 (+2) - He's had a very decent so far and quietened those that said he'd be found out now that he's not teammates with the likes of Franslow Cola-spin-to-the-wall, Nearly-Moving-Nicholas and Low-Confidence-Logan. 
11. Nico Hülkenberg - 85 (+1) - He got a podium, he gets another point. Makes sense. 
12. Esteban Ocon - 83 (-2) - Ocon's had a good season.  Nerf him immediately. 
13. Yuki Tsunoda - 77 (-5) - Hard to argue this.  Although it feels primarily the car issue as he wasn't bad at racing bulls but it should make people happy he'll be less competitive in their games.
14. Lance Stroll - 77 (-1) - Ironically it's looked like the first season where he could be bothered for a while and they've dropped him ratings. 
15. Kimi Antonelli - 77 (+5) -  I think it's fair.  He'll slowly improve incrementally throughout the ratings. 
16. Isack Hadjar - 77 (+9) - He's probably been the standout of the rookies relating to expectation.  I probably wouldn't have shot him to the moon like this, but still it's fine-ish.
17. Oliver Bearman - 75 (+1) - I've found him to either be really good or really rubbish.  Like sometimes, especially in Quali he's pulled out some decent performances.  Other times, he's anonymous or doing something average. 
18. Gabriel Bortoleto - 74 (=) - I think he's done okay without really having the results to showcase that. Still feels a little harsh to be below Isack and Ollie but he's alot of points behind his teammate so it's  a hard argument to sell. 
19. Liam Lawson - 72 (-8) - I probably wouldn't have driven him into the ground so much, but he was far too highly rated in the first place.  
20. Jack Doohan - 67 (-6) - Hard to argue.  You miss half the season and you miss half your rating.   He's probably lucky to still be in the Alpine seat as no matter how hard Franco leaves both metaphorical and literal skid-marks on the season, he's still allowed to retain the seat. 

I'm sure people will say they're better but I just feel it was a long wait for something that doesn't reflect accurately enough.
