Renault: This was a battle that had a very different look to it three quarters of the way into the season, with Kevin Magnussen 11-4 up on his Renault team mate in qualifying, for example, heading into Japan. But with the pressure on it was Jolyon Palmer who hit his stride, scoring points in Malaysia, edging the Dane 3-1 in the final six races (DNFs are discounted), and also out-qualifying him in four of the last five events – the only exception being Mexico, where Palmer was unable to compete. The Briton’s form helped win him a second season with Renault, while Magnussen was snapped up by Haas, where he will partner Romain Grosjean next year. © formula1.com
