2014 Driver of the year.

My D'sOTY are:
1)The Boss - He really showed poise down the stretch, and with his ability that is an awesome combination.
1) Fred - Still the most complete driver in the field, at what he did with that POS was plain ridiculous.
3) Danny Boy - What an incredible year, unfortunately I have some doubts about his accomplishments after the car was found to be illegal. Is he that good, or is Seb that average. One indicator may be; if Kimi spanks Seb next year at Ferrari, Seb, and respectively Danny Boy's accomplishments at RB, (along with Webber's) will be marginalized to a degree. I'm willing to wait and see.....Spanky, spanky............

Me too.

1. Hamilton - With all the setbacks that he had this season, fought through them like the champion that he is.

2. Bottas - Tenacious fighter, a real future pain in the ass for Lewis.

3. Ricciardo - 3 fantastic wins, and shows true Aussie grit........doesn't fear anybody, even though he smiles alot.

Hamilton - had bad luck but also the best car - but drove it maturely and quickly both - surprisingly cool under pressure too
Alonso - horrible car, bad work environment but still never seemed to give up
Riiciardo - his smile is a bit too much
Bottas

Just happy rosberg did not win by some ridiculous double pt rule, else another Button type champ.

Hamilton
Given the right car, he will win the championship.
Ricciardo
This is the only teammate who beats Seb. Nuff said
Bottas
A stand out year but still not the complete article. Should have won at least a race.
Bianchi
His point scoring performance was one of the highlights of the season
Kvyat
He has shown pace to earn a drive in RBR. Let's see what he could do in a competitive car
Vergne
IMO, he has the best performance among the mid field drivers & was better than some accomplished drivers like Massa & Raikkonen.
Rosberg
The tipping point was the radio ban. His performance dipped when the ban was imposed. But this is supposed to be a team sport so I hope FIA can lift the ban. It was interesting to watch a driver with natural ability like Hamilton against an intelligent driver like Nico who was able to improve his performance by assimilating data.
