    Anyone interested, its here http://www.jamesallenonf1.com/

    This is how its judged

    "To my mind the three criteria for judging are; how high were the peaks, how consistent was the performance level and what did they make of the machinery they were given?"

    This is how I voted. Its based just on 2009 performance. I think that Alonso and Hamilton will be in most peoples top 2 in some order. After that, its very hard to put them in order. Arguments can be made for the rest. Could easily have put Button third, but this is what my mind said. If I wanted to win, I would swap Rosberg and Button.

    I think any number of drivers could be 3rd, 4th, and 5th. Only have a strong opinion that Alonso and Hamilton are the top two. Would have Kimi in there, but he didnt really wake up til after Massa had his accident, so left him out

    1) Alonso
    2) Hamilton
    3) Vettel
    4) Rosberg
    5) Button

    Just read other peoples enteries. If you have a heard problem, dont go there. Surprise surprise, Button is most peoples number one. Listen to this

    1. Button – won the WDC, brilliant start to the season and recovery. Most consistent driver of the season.

    Then the same guys says

    3. Vettel – quick but inconsistent. Key mistakes really cost him.

    Sorry dude, Both were inconsistent. Vettel had some unnecessary crashes, but Button had more off days in mid season than anyone else. To say that Button was the "Most consistent driver of the season", is just 100% wrong.

    Button was a worthy champion, but definitely not the most consistent driver of the year

    In no particular order

    Barichello - proved there's life in the old dog yet
    Button - showed that when things are to his liking he's got pace. Also showed impressive racing skills at times
    Vettle - won me the boards F1 comp :P
    Raikonnen - I originally had Webber in the list as without the yardstick of Massa who's to say Raikonnen's results in the latter half of the season were really all that impressive? But I'll give him the benefit of the doubt.
    Hamilton - Proved he's a cυnt can get the job done when given the right machinery
