After every Formula 1 round, Edd Straw ranks the performances of all 22 drivers across the entire race weekend, as he did for the Chinese Grand Prix.

Those of you in The Race Members' Club can ask him questions about his rankings and a special Q&A is released shortly afterwards, but for the first time after China, we opened up driver rankings to the Champions tier of The Race Members' Club!

Want to have your say in the next Members' Club ranking from the Japanese Grand Prix? Make sure you sign up to the Champions tier. Don't forget there's 90% off your first month in all our tiers on The Race Members' Club right now.

The Champions tier unlocks access to Edd Straw's 'Knowledge Bucket' mini-debriefs and the favourite Edd's Sheds series, which celebrates crap F1 cars and those who had the misfortune of driving them.

There are also non-Edd-related Champions benefits, too, like exclusive updates from every F1 race in our 'from the paddock’ community chat, and unique access to segments of Bring Back V10s research notes.

We're running the Champions driver rankings as a trial, so make sure you join in from Japan if you want us to keep it going!
