Formula 1- the end of a season

Yesterday, the last race of the 2012 Formula 1 citcuit came to an end. A large ammount of people gathered in São Paulo for the final showdown between the top F1 pilots of the season:
Sebastian Vettel, Fernando Alonso and Kimi Räikkönen. The race itself was rather invigurating as all the drives strived to showcase the best of their abilities. A surprising crash by Hamilton caused him to leave the race and so the race for first place was mostly between Button, Alonso and Massa with Vetel being kept away from the first positions. In the end Button won the race  with Alonso Massa and even Vetel being at about 2 seconds from each other. The thing that made the race so memorable was all the emotion felt after the drivers left their cars. Button broke into tears after winning this last race and even though he was 5th in the global drivers ranking, he was still more than happy to have the privilage to hold the last race cup of the year. Of course, even the drivers ranking brought tears to the ones who won the first three positions. Alonso and Vetel were really close contenders for the first position and even after Vetel won by a close 3 point win, both players showed sportsmanship and congratulated each other with mutual wishes that they will win the next one also.
