Previous F1 driver Jolyon Palmer, who left Renault amid the 2017 season, has joined the BBC group to offer knowledge and examination from the perspective of the contenders.
The Formula 1 finale in Abu Dhabi typified a significant part of the 2018 season.
There was some high dramatization, especially toward the begin, a few snapshots of genuine energy in the center, developing to an energizing finale, which at last failed to nothing with a couple of laps to go as Sebastian Vettel couldn't test Lewis Hamilton for the win.
It's been an extraordinary period of on-track activity in general, and my three star drivers of the season were on incredible shape in Abu Dhabi also.
Lewis Hamilton commends a fifth drivers' title after the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix
Right off the bat, obviously, the best on the planet. What a season Lewis Hamilton has had, and what an approach to envelop it with Abu Dhabi.
Prior to this year, Hamilton had never won any outstanding race in a season subsequent to securing the title. This time he took post and won both of the rest of the races to end what transformed into an overwhelming year in decided style.
His triumph on Sunday was one of the more downplayed. Having taken post by just 0.15 seconds in front of colleague Valtteri Bottas on Saturday, he set right off the bat in the race, which appeared a striking call by Mercedes.
In any case, while Bottas battled after his own stop, and dropped down the request, Hamilton was in entire control. He beat his colleague, who had begun beside him on the lattice, by very nearly 50 seconds.
The correlation among Hamilton and Bottas is unmistakable this year. Over the principal half it was a lot nearer, however you felt Hamilton had the edge. The second half was a pulverization.
After the midpoint at Silverstone, Hamilton won eight of the rest of the 11 races. Bottas scored only four platform in that time and didn't get a triumph all season, completing 161 points behind his colleague.
Bottas is a decent driver, and it features exactly how great Hamilton has been for the current year.
I can't think about a more noteworthy execution by any driver through the span of a whole season than this one from Hamilton.
The best, the most exceedingly terrible and the greatest frenzy - F1 in 2018

My second driver of the year is Max Verstappen. He's unquestionably super-capable. He's unimaginably snappy yet inclined to being hot-headed and committing errors.
However, through the span of this season he has formed into a relatively total driver.
Verstappen came in for a great deal of stick after Monaco, where he slammed practically speaking and accordingly needed to begin from the back. It was the most recent in a progression of mistakes over the early races. He had the pace however continued committing errors - he had episodes in the majority of the initial six race ends of the week.
In any case, kid has he turned it around. Platform in the majority of the last five races - incorporating a win in Mexico, a should-have-been win in Brazil and a drive to second from eighteenth on the network in Austin - demonstrate his potential for one year from now.
Completing fourth in the title, just two points behind Kimi Raikkonen, is an uncommon accomplishment, considering his troublesome begin to the season and the absence of intensity from his Red Bull group, especially amidst the season.
Verstappen drove another solid race on Sunday, recouping from a poor begin that left him on the edge of the main 10 and nursing his vehicle through motor overheating issues at an early stage.
He demonstrated his outrageous hostility in the vehicle with proceeds onward Force India's Esteban Ocon from the get-go in the race and afterward Bottas late on, having minor contact with both.
It demonstrates there's as yet a hazard component to his driving, which in the event that somebody is battling for a title isn't perfect, yet at any rate right now Verstappen is hitting the nail on the head usually, when prior on in the year it was costing him sincerely.
