At this point in the season, the standings charts start to pick up a pattern. Lewis Hamilton has a clear lead, with Nico Rosberg steady but dropping behind. Sebastian Vettel has started what looks like an inconsistent but worthy championship campaign, whilst those three are already pulling ahead of the rest of the pack. Kimi Räikkönen has made a disappointing start to the year compared to his teammate, but is tucked up amongst the Williams pair which is no bad place to be.

The zero end of the table features both Manor and McLaren, which is no surprise. Poor Pastor Maldonado has also failed to pick up a point yet, after a very scrappy start to 2015.
