Who is the best F1 driver of 2026?

Not a poll. Not a panel of pundits. Nine metrics from official timing data, car performance stripped out, 23 drivers, 14 races.

The answer: Verstappen, 9.88. Then Antonelli, 9.48.

Oliver Bearman is P13 in the official championship with 17 points.

On driver merit he is P6 with 81 — ahead of Gasly, ahead of Sainz, ahead of Piastri.

Twice this season we graded him the best driver of the whole race. In a Haas.

The closest fight at the front of the grid is not for the title. It is inside Ferrari.

Hamilton 7 — 6 Leclerc on race grades, with one round a dead heat.

Fourteen rounds, and a single round separates them. Nobody else at the front is this close.

Best qualifier on the 2026 grid, once the car is adjusted out of the lap:

Fernando Alonso. 9.71 out of 10.

He is 45 years old and drives an Aston Martin that has scored 3 points all season.

Saturday never left him.

Carlos Sainz has 6 points in the official championship. P16.

In our driver-merit championship he has 74 points. P9.

Seven places higher the moment the Williams stops being part of his score.

The most one-sided garage in Formula 1 right now:

Antonelli 12 — 2 Russell.

Fourteen rounds, identical Mercedes, and the 20-year-old graded higher in twelve of them.

Same car is the only fair fight this sport has.
