It was getting tight at the end there! Like Toto, I can understand it both ways. Yes I understand that you have to work together as a team, but at the same time he was fighting for a championship and felt he had to do whatever he had to do to try and win. Yes, it would have perhaps have been more classy to have sailed off into the distance, which I felt he had the pace to do and set a marker for next season, not just by winning but with the margin (much as Rosberg did at the tail ejnd of last year!). At the same time, the very best drivers all do whatever it takes to try and win - think back to Prost, Senna, Schumacher. I had a wry smile when Vettel implied that he hadn't overtaken because he felt that Hamilton was wrong to ignore team orders. How many time when he was winning with Red Bull did he ignore instructions to help Mark Webber out, and just ignored them to concentrate on himself?

Looking back on the season as a whole, I think Rosberg is a worthy champion, even if he did have his fair share of luck throughout. Toto Wolff said that he felt that the Malaysia engine blow up cost Hamilton, and in simplistic terms it did - mathematically an extra net 28 points turnaround would have won him the title. But it's difficult to know whether Rosberg would have been going as much safety first in those last four races as he did, or if Hamilton would have ben as relaxed knowing he'd nothing to lose. Where I think Hamilton truely lost the championship was the race after Malaysia in Japan, where it was still entirely within his own hand at that time. He got involves in a needless off track row with the media, which distracted him, and ultimately cost him the race and put the championship battle in Rosberg's hands from then on.

Overall, it has been a decent season, with action right to the end.
