Bottas v Ricciardo - How are they comparing?

[chunterer]

Ok, last year's Eurocup FR 2.0 protagonists Valtteri Bottas and Daniel Ricciardo, both widely considered to be potential superstars in the making, stepped up to F3 this year, one in Europe and one in Britain.

So we may have been robbed of a continued direct rivalry and comparison as their careers continue to rise but how do people rate their performances this season relatively?

For me they have performed at a fairly similar level; both front runners in their respective series, and both conceivably going to be challenging for the title in each one.

What do we all think?
