The driver 'surprise' of the season perplexes me a bit.  For example I don't think Stroll is expected to do very well by most pundits, so choosing him as a surprise (bad) is kind of pointless, isn't it?  We might need to define the 'surprise' part a bit better.  That said, this one is just for fun (unlike the GG which is a fight to the death), so I'm really not trying to make a stink over it.   :D :D

I think comparing a driver to his teamie is a big part of if
he was good or bad.Probably the biggest is Lewis and Bottas.
Then Preez had a bad season at Mcclaren that could have ended
him in F1 but he bounced back very well.

Constructor champion - Ferrari (by the odd point or 2)
Driver champion - Lewis
Constructor surprise of the season - Renault (compared to finishing spot last season) but Ferrari really for stealing Merc's crown.  ;)
Driver surprise of the season (good) - Stroll (he'll be the new Max  :D)
Driver surprise of the season (bad) - Max (compared to 'Honey Badger' teammate)  :P

That makes sense...I'll still leave mine the way they are.
