Substitute head with car.... He had to make the move in Singapore. It's not his fault that Webber likes to use him as a moving brake!

Hamilton deserves a penalty for that move on Felipe in Qualy.

For getting out of the way? They were both on an outlap. Gave as a great camera shot though!
Overall, the right man won the championship. The fastest team member driving the fastest car. If it wasn't for reliability he would have won it a few races ago. He probably made more mistakes than Hamilton and a similar number to Alonso. Webber made the fewest mistakes but wasn't fast enough and couldn't handle the pressure - I don't think he would have been a worthy winner.
Alonso had a great second half of the season in a car that overall wasn't too far behind Red Bull but made too many errors in the first half of the season.
Hamilton has been as unlucky as Vettel with reliability this season but could have been challenging if not for the error in Monza or the bad luck in Singapore, but ultimately the car wasn't fast enough which is why he had to take the extra risks to stay in touch. Still, comprehensivley beat Button 14-5 (qualifying) and 13-6 (race including +2 DNF's for LH + 1 gearbox issue).
Hopefully the cars will be more competitive next year which could mean a titanic battle between Hamilton, Alonso and Vettel.
Massa was hugely disappointing this season.
