Starting of with My Top Formula 1 drivers of 2019, this is the part who was in my top 10 this season, not in championship order, not in championship order, so his list doesn't includes the likes of Daniel Ricciardo, Kimi Raikkonen or Sergio Pérez to name a few, its just only opinion folks.
Anyway, here is my list below.
My Top Formula 1 drivers of 2019:
10. Daniil Kvyat (Toro Rosso) - Returning back to Formula 1 after a season off, fast and reliable, which include a third place finish at a wet to dry Hockenheim.
9. Pierre Gasly (Red Bull/Toro Rosso) - Despite being demoted back to Toro Rosso from Spa onwards could have lost his confidence but scored 32 points in those nine races includes a second place finish at Sao Paulo.
8. Sebastian Vettel (Ferrari) - One race win at Singapore in 2019; should have won Montreal.
7. Lando Norris (McLaren) - Consistently fast in his first season, which include two sixth place finishes at Bahrain and at the Red Bull Ring.
6. Alexander Albon (Toro Rosso/Red Bull) - Some impressive performances in his first full season, which include a sixth place finish at a wet to dry Hockenheim; promoted to Red Bull Racing for the second half of the season scored 76 points in those nine races, highest finish of fourth place at Suzuka, should have finish second at Sao Paulo too.
5. Carlos Sainz, Jr. (McLaren) - Some impressive performances this season, which include three fifth place finishes at Hockenheim, Hungaroring and Suzuka; and a third place finish at Sao Paulo.
4. Charles Leclerc (Ferrari) - Consistently fast in his first season for Ferrari, which include Grand Prixs' he should have won this season but due to unreliable car in Bahrain, underpowered at the Red Bull Ring, team-orders in Singapore, Safety car in Soshi and pit-stop error in Mexico; however won two Grand Prix this season at Spa and Monza.
3. Valtteri Bottas (Mercedes) - On his day faster driver than his team-mate Hamilton, Four Grand Prix wins at Melbourne, Baku, Suzuka and Austin.
2.Max Verstappen (Red Bull) - Some impressive drives this season, which include three Grand Prix wins at the Red Bull Ring, Hockinheim and Sao Paulo.
1. Lewis Hamilton (Mercedes) - Best driver on the grid this season, eleven Grand Prix wins, to concluded with his sixth Drivers' World Championship.
Overall, possibly one of the most dominating seasons I have seen in Formula 1 despite it doesn't look like in times, fifteen Grand Prix wins out of twenty-one wins from Mercedes which include nine one-two finishes to conclude winning their fifth F1 Constructors' Championship in a row.
While in the Drivers' Championship it was Lewis Hamilton to win the off winning eleven Grand Prixs', to win this seasons Drivers' Championship for his sixth F1 Drivers' title and becoming only the second driver in Formula 1 history to join Michael Schumacher to win six or more F1 Drivers' Titles to conclude Formula 1 in 2019.
Bring on Formula 1 2020.
