Driver of the Year: Daniel Ricciardo
Team of the Year: Mercedes
Rookie of the Year: Esteban Ocon
Reject of the Year: Esteban Gutierrez
Most Improved: Kimi Raikkonen
Most Charismatic: Jenson Button
Most Exciting: Sebastian Vettel, simply for the passion in his radio messages
Most Useless: Esteban Gutierrez
Most Anonymous: Valtteri Bottas
Most Disappointing: Williams and Renault teams
Overtake of the Year: Close between Ricciardo on Bottas at Monza and Vettel's cheeky pass on Sainz and Hulkenberg in the pit entry at China. 
Drive of the Year: Daniel Ricciardo, Monaco GP
Most Overrated: Daniil Kvyat. Like the guy but his performance this year has been pretty bad all year.
Most Underrated: Sergio Perez. For me, one of the stars of the season but rarely got a mention. The only none Merc, RBR or Ferrari driver to break into triple figures.
Race of the Year: Honestly I don't remember any of them well enough to answer this properly.
Worst Race of the Year: Same as above.
Most Spectacular Crash: Fernando Alonso, Australian GP
Most Disgusting Promotional Tactic: I've forgotten most of the controversies. I'd go with Ron Dennis' removal.
Most Emotional Moment: I think the farwells to both Felipe and Jenson. Two great careers coming to an end.
Best Commentator: David Coulthard
Worst Commentator: Ben Edwards
Best Non-Driving Personality: Toto Wolff
Worst Non-Driving Personality: Helmut Marko wins this by default every year.

I would add another one as "Battle of the year" and would definitely vote Ricciardo vs Verstappen at Malaysia.
