Championships are always a matter of "ifs".
If the car would have held together...
If qualifying had gone without a hitch...
If that banana peel hadn't been on the track...
But in a championship like this... all the bad luck balances out. RBR deserve that constructor's, and Vettel deserves that trophy.
Feel bad for Webber... but really... of all the top drivers, he's his own worst enemy. He just collapses at all the wrong moments. Only guy in the top five who's less consistent is Button... but Mark is more frustrating. He shows moments of brilliance, interspersed with long bouts of competence, punctuated by moments of extreme d'oh. After Mark and Button, there's Alonso... flashes of his championship winning form, interspersed with erratic drives and rattled behavior.

Next season... more races. More chances for the luck to balance out. It'll be a fantastic one.

Vettel laughing about his engineer's nervous radio chatter.
I can imagine how nerve-wracking those last ten laps were... will it hold together? Will it? Will it? Auuuuugh!
