Second: Sebastian Vettel

Third: Mark Webber

Fourth: Fernando Alonso

Fifth: Lewis Hamilton

Sixth: Felipe Massa

Seventh: Michael Schumacher

Eighth: Paul di Resta

:D hope CMLean made his eleven points. This year has been less exciting than last year in many ways, but it has also been reassuring. McLaren got off on the wrong foot somehow, but hung in there and made startling progress; Red Bull has shown that they are not a flash in the pan and even Mercedes has begun to perk up. Only Ferrari seems lost in the wilderness; if not for the heroic efforts of Fernando, practically DRAGGING his red sled over the line, they'd be mid-packers. I'm genuinely puzzled by Ferrari's ineptitude; in almost every aspect of racing: chassis, strategy, tyre management, pit work, they're just 'good.' They used to be the standard. I hope it isn't what I suspect: interference from the bean counters at FIAT. If so, then we may, in the years to come see Ferrari go down the trail Williams has blazed.
