The race had a bit of everything except an alternator failure during the final safety car period.

safety car finish was a bit of a let down

I'm sure Tweety's covered it in one of his many tl;dr posts, but who's driving for Sauber next season? and does Senna lose his Williams drive?

Gutierrez and the Hulk

Alonso deserved that championship. Vettel is very deserving as well...but Alonso only really lost points when taken out in Spa and Japan...it seems every weekend he got every bit of speed the car had and had so many sneaky results where he muscled the car around with no pace.

Definitely. Alonso did just about everything right this year.

Vettel was extremely luck in this race, with the lap 1 crash somehow not ending his day, and the pass under yellows being officially pardoned by the stewards...

I don't think Vettel was anywhere near as deserving - look at his results in the start of the season when the car wasn't quite the dominant force it usually is. He only came back into contention when Newey & co. got the thing absolutely flying, with 4 consectutive, uncontested, flag to flag victories.

Drivers linked to the seat include Bruno Senna, Sebastien Buemi, Jaime Alguersuari, Kamui Kobayashi, Jules Bianchi, Adrian Sutil, Luiz Razia and Charles Pic.

"I went off at the last corner on lap 52 as I couldn't see well with my visor being dirty and fogged up," said Raikkonen, who finished in 10th position to become the only driver to have finished all races in 2012.

"Where I went off you can get back on the track by going through the support race pitlane, but you have to go through a gate.

"I know this as I did the same thing in 2001 and the gate was open that year. Somebody closed it this time.

"Next year I'll make sure it's open again..."
