Such a shame, this season promised much yet finger boy lucked his way to another championship.

Should have been Alonso or Hamilton.

Sorry but Vettel is not the greatest racing driver in the world as they seem to keep saying, what worries me is that next season I can see him getting no 4 as Mclaren I fear will struggle, Ferrari will be close but not close enough.

Amen to that sh!t.

I think it is a touch to early to be predicting how teams will be perform until testing.

I'll put money on vettel winning a 4th title next year, the 2013 cars are just an evolution of this year's.

I'm really looking forward to seeing what LH can do in the Mercedes next year. Perhaps we will see how really good he is driving a so called lessor car. I think its going to be a tough year for him though and can't help thinking he has made a mistake leaving Mclaren. However who knows, long term it maybe a good choice as I'm sure Mercedes will have the resources to build a decent car.

It's definitely gonna be exciting to watch, he might sneak a win or two! Will be a bit like Alonso this year I suppose

Long term he is going to be in a works car with a merc engine and chassis. Next year I think there are going to be no big changes to the car but roll on 2014...

It's all about the 1.6 v6 turbos

Despite it being a very exciting race yesterday anyone else find it worrying that Vettle can end the first lap in last place, with a damaged car, yet by lap 8 he isin 7th place.

Add to that him being able to start last in Abu Dhabi and end up on the podium.

Not taking away anything from him, but it seems apart from the top 3 teams, the other cars might as well not even bother.
