Kimi Raikkonen said earlier this year in what was one of his best quotes, "The winner is the one who scores the most". That does not necessarily mean that they ranked the best through the year - at least in my view. So I present over the next series of blogs my top teams and drivers of 2012.

Deserving Fernando Alonso may be but that shouldn't suggest that Sebastian Vettel is less so. Vettel and Red Bull put a serious challenge on for the title late in the season. What Vettel and Red Bull have done is nothing short of brilliant.

I will be crossing my fingers, eyes and toes (sexy look, I know) in the hope that F1 in America at the Circuit of the Americas is a success. For Formula One to be a true WORLD Championship it has to include America.

Why Countries Like India Need Our Foreign Aid

Like everyone I have seen the criticism about a country like India receiving foreign aid when they can afford to host a Grand Prix. But my visit to the new born care unit has left me in no doubt that partnerships between organisations like UNICEF and the government, really are saving children's lives, day in, day out. Next year, UNICEF and others will be calling on the UK government and other world leaders to put an end to child hunger. Please remember the plight of these tiny babies, like I will, and add your support.

With a range of new updates and fixes, F12012 is easily the best game F1 game made by Codemasters. Updated cars, new modes, tweaked visuals and slightly improved handling all help F12012 become the game last year's should have been - but it could have been better.

Whitmarsh Has Reservations on Ecclestone's Budget Cap

Formula One has a certain amount of specification to it and there is no doubt about that fact but unless it becomes a much more regulated and specified sport, like NASCAR, it will be very difficult to avoid the development war which will escalate costs and separate the herd of have's and have not's.

It would be sad to see Cosworth leave F1 but current economic times are such that it may be more than just an engine supplier leaving the sport.

It must have taken quite a sales pitch to convince Lewis that success lies away from McLaren, a team he has been nurtured by since a young age. Many will claim he has followed the dollar signs, and the media will only focus on that - I say bollocks to that.
