Alonso and Sainz both had good days, Kimi as well looked on it and really should have won by some distance but played the no2 role and held station. Di Resta also did well - given that he'd never driven the car before (and how bad the Williams seemed to be this weekend).
On the flip side - how bad is Ericsson that he managed to qualify behind someone who'd not driven their car before? Verstappen committed the cardinal sin of taking out his teammate and ruining his own race - Red Bull looked more competitive this weekend - and with problems Vettel was having could really have bagged big points. Max made sure that didn't happen - I'd imagine he wasn't exactly popular when he came back in.
