The FIA has released an updated list on the power unit component usage for each driver. Drivers can use up to three elements of any part of the power unit before penalties start being handed out.
ICE: Internal Combustion Engine
TC: Turbo Charger
MGU-H: Motor Generator Unit – Heat
MGU-K: Motor Generator Unit – Kinetic
ES: Energy Store
CE: Control Electronics
So Ricciardo is the only one to have grabbed one more from every component. I think the reliability aspect will be more important for the top teams, while teams like STR can afford losing one of their worse races to grab some extra parts. Cant see Vettel having that kinda luxury.

There's at least one mistake in this list, Vettel has used 2 CE

I actually dont think he has, because using that or extra batteries will lead to penalties, if memory serves.
