EXPLANATIONS:
Expect: Expectation fulfillment. The driver's current points score as a percentage of the average points placed on him (not rounded off to integer points)
Surprise: The driver's points score as a percentage of the maximum points placed on him plus one. When this number is reached, the driver has achieved a 100% surprise, by beating the highest expectations on him for this season.
Beat: How many players' expectations the driver has managed to beat. The maximum amount is the number of entrants for the season; for 2014 this is 30.

Hamilton's forecast goes back into 100% surprise territory, Kimi's is recovering from the Australia DNF.

Grosjean opens his points tally and Barty isn't cheering. 100% surprises look very possible for the Saubers, while the RBR:s look very troubled indeed.
