Formula one ended with a bang! and a twist and a twirl... but enough about Vettel (your newest and youngest triple weltmeister (world champion). Brazil as usual hosted an amazing race that saw the chapter 2012 of formula one come to an end.
The race started with Hamilton flying forwards and his team mate caught napping, champion man himself went for a doze at the start that saw a mirror full of Ferrari's turn into a visor full as Alonso and Massa went around the out side of... well everyone! well it seemed that way, Massa shot into second and Alonso into fourth.
Moments later a massive lock up from Kimi could have sent Vettel into his next life but swerved to the left, as Kimi failed to destroy Vettel, Brunno senna would see much more success, merely seconds later Vettel was facing the wrong direction.
The rest of the field settled in to the race but nothing was settled about Vettel and he made his way up into 6 from 24th in an astonishingly quick way (bearing in mind he had damage to the rear of his car) and thus everything settled would become unsettled once more as the famous Brazilian weather went bad.
In such conditions Button was in his element, Jenson and Lewis battled for the lead initially but after Hamilton had pitted for intermediate tires Jenson oddly enough had none other than The Hulk for company and they stayed out on slicks for the longest. Hulkenburg appeared to be in control of the race but a few pit stops and a safety car later it was Hamilton back in P1.
The hulk doesn't give up easy though and gave Hamilton a run for his money and .... hit him... hit him hard.... and got a drive through. And that's a season rap for Lewis Hamilton and his career with McLaren.
Amazing events (which I forgot) lead to Fernando Alonso to be 3rd to his team mate and Button, Ferrari did the old switcharo and that is your podium for you Button Alonso and Massa
with only 2 laps to go Di Resta gives some loving to the barriers in the last 2 corners and the race and season end under safety car conditions, Vettel comes home in 6th enough to beat Alonso in the championship and is now your youngest triple would champion
And
so it ends! the result we were so desperate to find out, all we cared
about was the end yet it would have meant nothing without the roller
coaster of a middle and a beginning, What a race. What a season....
Formula 1.
Be Well
