Alonso definitely tier 1. Would love to see him back in a competitive car. I've heard the boys on the grid regard him as the best one there in a few interviews. Don't forget Lewis still beat him in the same car that at Maclaren, even with some of Alonso's shenanigans.
Current grid for me in terms of talent would be: Hamilton, Alonso, Ricciardo, possibly Verstappen, Vettel/Kimi then the rest are untested.
Also, what doesn't get shown in the race stats are the multiple failures/issues Hamilton has had in free practice and qualifying which hampered his grid position and race setup. Honestly already forgotten about Rosberg as a champion. As exciting as Damon Hill, so he can enjoy punditry on Sky Germany when he retires.
