(The correct answer is: 7)
Separated into tiers for your viewing ease, here are the power rankings for the all-important 2017 grill the grid challenge.
1. (Top Tier) Palmer, Sainz & Kyvat
As joint 10-pointers tied for first in 2016 Grill the Grid, it's unlikely either will want to drop points in 2017. If I had to pick one though, I'd go with Kyvat as the one who has more to prove, and Sainz might be distracted by the missed prospect of a Mercedes seat.
2. (Dark Horses) Verstappen, Stroll, and Massa
Vestappen just excels at pretty much everything in F1 so, why not this too? Stroll has the rookie advantage, as the new kid on the block it's likely he'll be fresh on his knowledge since he was recently just a fan. Finally Massa (if he's back) who scored 8 in the last season, will want to hit the 10 mark this season. Since he's been around for a while and also has bad memories of losing by 1-2 points, he won't want to miss out next season.
3. (Midfield) Hamilton, Magnussen, Hulkenburg, and Vandoorne
Hulkenburg won't want to be shown up by the on-fire quiz star Palmer, so bet on him showing up big. Magnussen hit 8 last season, it'll be interesting to see if he can improve on that performance. Hamilton will likely get easy questions, considering the FIA needs to appease his fanbase (Expert insight alert!). Vandoorne? Well his name sounds like a cookie, so, there's that.
4. (Struggle for points) Ocon & Wehrlein
The biggest matchup of 2017 grill the grid is bound to be Mercedes starlets Wehrlein and Ocon. The interviewers will no doubt drop their hardest questions on these two, so they won't score high, but their goal is purely beating each other. Pick a side and watch it unfold as the two battle for the Mercedes seat on grill the grid. (At least that's what Toto told them)
5. (Backmarkers) Kimi
I'd be surprised if he even answers 1 question...
